The name the Genocide comes from a science fiction book called Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. The ship itself is always placed in maps in which the humans are fighting for their very survival. The map itself is called Genocide because it takes place before Extinction. The ship is hovering over an outpost on Reach, being boarded and loaded for combat when the Covenant fleet invades. The covenant captures one of the underground hangar bases on the other side of the canyon and sets up camp. When three covenant carriers, three cruisers, supported by a mini-carrier dropship and a scarab are incoming, it sorta looks like Genocide. The humans respond with guerilla tactics and clever use of the terrain and mythos to mount an effective enough resistance to allow the ship to escape to the Hotzone outpost on Halo. It is followed by a single covenant flagship to the Hotzone outpost and then is later shot down and crashes on Halo, but not without disabling the flagship aswell. The Genocide's fate was sealed. Doomed to rust away while the sand slowly absorbed it's destroyed remains, hence Extinction's name.

I was bored during geography class this morning, and drew up some formal plans for an idea I had.

After the Fall of Reach, the UNSC started an extensive search for any ships that might have survived the planets destruction. After finding a distress beacon at the Hotzone Outpost, they tracked the Genocide to its crash site, where a hard battle forced both sides into hiding and a shortage of supplies. The UNSC prepared to evacuate survivors. However, they were not alone. The Covenant had tracked the Vanity and Humility to its location, and arrived within a few hours of the Genocide's discovery and engaged the UNSC fleet. The humans knew that if they won, they could capture technology aboard the Vanty and Humility and turn the tide of the war. Knowing the importance, pilots and boarding parties prepared for the aerial battle that was soon to come.

LAYOUT-

Frigate, corvette, or destroyer- Sniper spots
UNSC
Marathon (possibly scaled up and modified to look like a carrier of some sort)- Spawn points, flag, and armory
Halcyon (2)- Hangar
Frigate (2)- To look pretty
Prowler (4)- Snipers

Vehicles

Banshee (upgraded)
Seraph

Mass Driver

Weapons
Covenant
Modified Beam rifle (primary trigger fires regular round, secondary fires explosive)
Plasma Rifle
Plasma Pistol
Mauler
Needler
Covenant Assault Rifle (Looks like carbine, has rapid fire and grenade launcher)
AA Fuel Rod Gun

I understand this map is rather...lacking. If you have any suggestions or comments, please say something. But I understand there are people out there who hate Extinction because people like to shoot each other down from the air in aircraft, so if you have nothing better to say than this map is terrible because it is sheerly aerial combat, keep yout mouth shut.

It would be nice if you at least asked about my vehicle tagset first before assuming you can has and putting it in your list. Other contributing people have asked be about tag protection for the Trinity maps and while I am still deciding (as I am personally against a closed source community), the map may be protected out of desire to respect other authors wishes. Therefore my own personal tagset may be released separately some time after the release of the maps.

Same goes double for my plot line.
Extinction is the end. Hence the name. Everybody dies, the ships rust in peace... The Genocide's fate is sealed with Extinction as it's mission was completed.

Atleast do your homework first on the storyline aspect of things, PM me or message me on xfire for details of the plot. Maybe we can fit your story in a different way.
