You need 3ds max6 to model the levels, guns, vechiles.
After you make a model you export with blitz (don't forget the frame)
Tool makes your .jms to a scenario and bitmaps tags by using the funtions.
Guallia is made the mod and make new tags.
Sapien is used to add scenery and crap.
At the end tool compiles it to a map.

You need to pay for 3dsmax 6, or you could use Gmax, which is free. Everything in the HEK is free.
If you go with Gmax, you need a script called Chimp and notepad. Both are free.
If you get 3dsmax6 somehow, you need the blitzsomething plugin which is probably at cortana.org.

would i be able to use lightshape3D or milkshape to model?

You could, but you'd need to convert them into something 3dsmax of gmax can use (3ds or max). You'd be better off using Gmax, it's much better than milkshape, and has some things over lightwave. So if you use those you'll need gmax or 3dsmax or someone with one of them.

You really shouldn't be worrying about that now, figure out the basics, get chimp, get some basic models ingame then move on to animations.
Unless you've done this before, doesn't sound like it.
Just take it slow and don't jump ahead of yourself. Look through some tutorials. Halowiki is okay for that (Forgot the link).
