Part 6 - 3-Plot Territories

In Response To: Why Halo's Objective Gametypes Suck - Part 1 (RC Master)

Part 6 - Plotting a Conquest
Getting more into the 'ideas' part rather than 'complain' part now :P
Highlights:

3-Plot has been largely ignored - poor implementation in Reach, didn’t exist in Halo 3,

Yet similar gametypes are popular in other games (Domination and Conquest),

Inherently grief-proof:

The more the difference between the teams, the quicker the game ends,

Even games last longer

Can quickly make up big deficits in score by capturing all 3 territories,

Reach MM should have 500 point score limit, 2 rounds to make it satisfyingly long,

Make it static spawns and this stops games getting chaotic,

Can offer extra incentive to capture territories by making them correspond to spawn zones,

Time Limit only for fail-safe purposes - make it generous,

Rounds and Time limits can introduce unwinnable situations, but I have fixes for those.
