Boardwalk

Boardwalk is a multiplayer map in Halo: Reach. The map is set in an urban plaza in the city of New Alexandria, with many walkways, and is near a MagLev Train line. The plaza has many scorch marks, craters, and damaged wall fragments due to Covenant attack and the map's ambient sounds contain explosions and heavy cannon fire.

Strategies

 * Jet Packs allow for easy ascent up the multitude of stories without having to locate a flight of stairs and head up the way that could be guarded by opponents.
 * The sniper area provides good cover from players on the low ground as well as the back. Snipe a few players, then move. If someone has a DMR and they're targeting you, retreat and snipe from another location.
 * The red team (or players colored in reddish armor for the matter) can use the trees on the map as a "Sniper nest" by climbing into them, the red hue on their armor blends in perfectly.

Cool Facts about Boardwalk

 * This map is seen in the Gamestop commercial for the unlockable armor.
 * If you get near or past the kill barrier on the map, the door frames outside of the map are filled with a solid wall of gray instead of a door.
 * On the right side of the map, facing the Overlook/Visitor center, the broken rail that Noble Six jumps down from in Exodus can be seen.
 * The map is a transitioning area for travelers, the blue team spawn is a rest house from the train (including two bathrooms), which leads into a courtyard with maintenance tunnel access, while the back building appears to be a closed off visitor center or mall, and the left side building is the city council.
 * The map appears in the campaign on the level Exodus at the beginning of the level.
 * There is an easter egg where it says "make out point" on one of the lamp posts.[
