Covenant Tower Mod
With their latest version of the Covenant Tower, I thought Mega missed a chance to significantly improve on the original and give it more of the look and feel of the in-game design. I briefly considered building one from scratch, but most of the stock bloks don’t really support a 3-axis design. I instead went with a mod of the original build aimed at getting closer to the in-game appearance,
To balance the proportions between the top and bottom sections, I shortened the ramps, raised the spires and pushed the features of the top ring outward. Also added turrets between the spires and added “wings” to the structures under the turrets.
I liked how use of the Phantom tubes to depict the gravity lift better matched the in-game width of the field and allowed a figure to “enter” the lift and appear in the center of the platform. It’s still too small overall, but for the most part I like how the modded version turned out.
