Overview
Hey Everyone. It's that time of the week again for another feature! This week we're showing off Geranamo's map, Anchor Estate. This map puts everything that you could ever want in a house into one package. A Theater? Check. A Grand Piano? Say no more.
The map is simply stunning. It displays the epitome of aesthetic map building. It does not support any sort of game play but it's entirely entertaining it to grab a couple of friends and explore the cavern dining room or the underground pool. Other than that, this is going to be a short write up for this new Pencil Pusher, because the fact is, this map is for looking, not reading. Silly people.

Well this is obviously another case of people voting based on the pictures. The gameplay is terrible, there's no stop to the spawn killing.

^ In case you can't tell that's sarcastic parody. XD

The first time I saw this map it dropped my jaw. There's just so much pretty to look at, and the space feels epic in size. Tons of people want to see Infection on this, I think it would be a great addition. Overall this map is one of the best aesthetic environments I've seen yet on Reach. :)

Yeah I downloaded this map the other day and LOVED it. Although I don't understand why some things... like a movie theater (I think it's a movie theater) are inside. But it's still amazing! Piano is probably my favorite part, either that or the room with the pool table. Great job on the map!

Feature worthy indeed. So much delightful detail in this map. Stunning. It's not too often that an aesthetic map stays on my Xbox, this may even be the first. Major props Geranamo.

I believe its just a regular theater, for plays, music performances, comedy acts, etc. not a movie theater. Think of the map as a social club for monocal-wearing-groomed-mustach-sporting-gentlemen, rather then a house to live in, then it would explain why some things are the way they are.

Yeah after going back and looking at it I can see what you mean. With the box seating up top I can see how it would be used for plays and such.

The northstar clan ripped this map off claiming it was made by a guy named sonicstar1961!
This map was too amazing for it to be built by sonicstar cuz i know him and his forging skills.
This map is excellent, and it is sad that someone is ripping it off as theirs and using it for their clan
