Great idea Weasel.

Thanks to Austin for helping me find a good Royalty Free Music Channel.

I wasn't at all suggesting for the chapter to be modified, but I guess it improves the reality of it. Any time.

Professor Anders?

This is one of those interesting Chapters. Love it. Nice work. I like how Axilus is always focusing the Team on the situation at hand. Great leadership. Spartan's going all Jorge-052 style with the chain gun now. He really should have inspected it before picking it up though. In the military you're trained to inspect things where terrorists have/could have been in-case they were rigged with explosives. Well written chapter. Liking how you're developing more on the combat side of things. Keep it up.

Welcome back! The whole forum has missed you, especially the SB. Glad to have you back.

I'm sorry...

Congratulations on achieving this Self Destruct. This is well deserved, especially after all of your dedication and contributions to this forum. Great work. Keep it up and enjoy your month of pink.

This looks great. Excellent effort.

It's alright, take your time if necessary. Glad to hear the next one is going to be big.

Um, is this to be rescheduled or completely cancelled? We need closure.

What I think will happen is that it'll be something completely different to the flood. It's stated to be some sort of an element. I would like to see the flood return, they'll return anyway. They can't all be eradicated. I'm not so sure about seeing them return in Halo: Nightfall though. I'd like to and expect to see something new in Halo: Nightfall, or something that isn't necessarily new, but not the flood.

Today marks the 100th year after the beginning of the Great War, also known as World War 1. There were 37 million casualties in World War 1, Military and Civilian. Those soldiers died for us. We may not even be here right now if it weren't for them. It doesn't matter whether these soldiers were British, German, American, Italian, Austrian, Russian, French, Belgian, or anything. They all fought to protect their country, and their country's people. No matter who these soldiers were or where they were from, they all suffered. Some never even wanted to join the military. Four long years. Four long, bloody years this war lasted. Eventually these soldiers didn't even know what they were fighting for. They all deserve our respect. We should all be grateful for their courage. They all thought it would be over by Christmas, but they had no idea what this was going to be like. Most of them didn't enlist to go through all of this. They were clueless, almost even innocent. Some people thought it would be fun to join up. They were overwhelmed by patriotism and "fighting for their country", they did...and most died. They were put in trenches and stuck with horrible conditions. They had little food, water, and basic sanitary needs. Many people today take these things for granted, these soldiers had no choice but to carry on, they couldn't just go AWOL. They continued to strive through the toughest conditions, they would have fought until the death to ensure safety for their country. In the end, was it all worth it? Was the death of one man enough to cause an entire World War? Many of the soldiers didn't even hate their opposition, they were just following orders. In the end we're all human, right? These brave soldiers today are now resting in peace. May they always be remembered for their bravery. Thank you for your service soldiers, R.I.P.

Spartan Laser?

Ummmm, about the 2nd, yeah that's not really a good date either. Final, and I mean final, date change to 9th August. Same time. Thanks.

I would, but in Europe we get it on the 14th.

I agree with Boss, a little longer Chapters. I understand it's hard for the writer to keep producing Chapters, especially when they're busy, but I'd personally wait longer if necessary for a longer chapter. What I'd like to see? Well it's all up to the writer to decide what'll happen next. I don't think the readers should interfere with the story. If I could make a suggestion though, I'd say more detail on the combat. Use detailed descriptive sentences to explain what the combat is like. Whenever I'm watching combat footage, like some scenes from Red vs Blue or an action scene from a movie for example, I like to rewind and replay moments to see how the combat plays out. Like how people escape a hold or take out their enemy. Try watching some Martial Arts footage to help write about how someone deals with the terrorists in this series. The Halo books do a good job at that, considering you've read them, you should know what I mean.
