Other Maps[]

Certain maps also use the Challenge Maps system to alter the match, by for example changing statistics of enemies. However, they are not intended to appear as a proper Challenge Map which appears in the Challenge Map rotation. These are all the map which use the Challenge Map system, but are not actually Challenge Maps as they cannot appear as one of the Challenge Maps every week.
