Forging the Future: A group of Spartans (name currently pending) are sent from Infinity to be dropped off on Earth on a search mission to find and protect 3 A.I Forge monitors, which landed on Earth after Requiem exploded. These 3 Forge monitors were part of a large group of monitors that forged Requiem, the Halo rings and just about every forerunner artefact. An "evil" corporation known as A.T.O.M (Atmospheric Tracking of Orbital Monitors) are on the hunt for the 3 Forge monitors so that they can forge forerunner artefacts for their own use- such as portals. The corporation is controlled by a higher mastermind, known simply as "The Mastermind". The Machinima is being held as an episodic series. Every episode runs for around 5 minutes, with 12 - 20 episodes making up a full season. Anyway, any feedback would be greatly appreciated. If you'd like to participate, just reply with what you may like to do. Thanks a bunch. *AUDITIONS* Feel free to audition for one of the roles listed below. There will, of course, be more characters added. If you'd like to audition for an existing slot or an additional character, just reply below with what spot you'd like to fill or message me about a new character. I will give you an audition-line, you will read it and record the audio, then send it back to [email protected], and I will process your request. \CURRENT VOLUNTEERS/ Director - GryffinGuy Co-writer - D-38 Boss Co-editor - Bnus Animators - Christopher Fernando, TheBattlecruiser3D, Olliban, MrPman9 and Dekanova.

Hey. Ever since I watched my first Halo Machinima, "Playin with the Chief" by then known as Digital Ph33r, I wanted to make my very own but I didn't know how. My inspiration was anything made by Jon CJG and any Halo 3 Machinima, mostly Arby 'n' the Chief. I wanted to make a Machinima but I don't know any equipment or software I need. And I can't really afford a computer. So, if anybody could help, could you guys tell me anything I need ? Or if not, could you guys tell me if you need any voice actors, count me in ! Thanks guys!

Hello everyone! I am currently developing a Halo Music Video Montage, and in future will be creating a series of Machinima and sketches/Skits. For the Halo Music Video Montage, I have already planned the majority of it, all I and my Co-editor needs is the Spartan-power! Pretty much anyone can do it, as long as they have Halo 4 and will be able to take directions. I have made one in the past, but my capture card was not very good quality back then. I now have a HD PVR2 so the capture quality will not be a problem. We are also taking on ideas for the Music Video Montage, so if you have any you think would be cool to do, then by all means tell me all about it. Myself and my Co-Editor will be recording the footage to edit, so all we need are the body actors. It was a fun experience to be a part of last time one was made, and I'm sure it will be even better this time around! For the Machinima, we already have several ideas, but like the Montage, we need the people to make it possible. We will need both Voice and Body actors to be in either a series or just a stand-alone sketch/skit. The series will require both extras and recurring characters, so message me for a part that will fit you best! If you want more information by all means contact me here or on my Gamertag! My Gamertag is: Leouric Cya peeps!

Tempest Larceny Signup Thread Tempest Larceny is a Halo 4 machinima currently in the stages of finalizing planning and looking for voice actors and body actors. It is planned to be an epicomedy. For voice actors, anyone is welcome to apply but not everyone will be voicing the main characters. If you wish to voice but don't get in, don't fret; there are other characters you need the voice. The one thing I ask for is this - if you are a squeaker, you're gonna need a reaaaal good reason why a 10 year old in in an unsanctioned UNSC base. How will you submit AND voice to me? Simple. For submission, I will provide exact lines I want YOU to say for the character you want to be, and you will record it in a voice reel. (Using a sound editing program, record one version of you doing one speech your character does, do it till satisfied, stop recording when need to, start recording again. Export as one large file.) Then sent it to this email, which is just retarded but its the one I have access to instantly. [email protected] Please don't have a crappy mic, and don't have any pops in your recording. You should play it back; if it sounds like it has pops, background noise or sounds bad, re-record, maybe with your mic a bit farther from your mic. I don't want a whole lot of background gain. I'll be picking people by not just the quality of their mic but also the quality of their speech. Do they capture the attitude of the character well? Are they suited for playing this character? Even better, are they, like RDJ for Tony Stark, having the exact same feel that the character needs? Add some emotion, some contrast in what you say. Don't read it like a book, read it like you're in the situation it dictates. If you can't rack your brain to put yourself in the shoes of your character and don't find the situation or anything about the character relating to you....don't do the character. There'll be parts that might sound better if I had scripted it with caps lock on. You are responsible for making it sound better. I want the best voice actors for their characters, and I think I'm allowed for that. Main and Recurring characters Note1: Only Taciturn is possibly female. This depends on if a female VA does the words better than a male VA. Note2: The name in quotes is their codename, the one they'll be referred to the most in the machinima. "Stormer", Named by actor choice Protagonist Armor: Actor Choice, must be unique Personality: Reliant and friendly to his A.I., he is the type of veteran at his job who isn't all 'grizzled' and 'battle hardened'. Still, he doesn't have a second thought in harming others if they are in the way of what he wants. Development through story: Slowly, he'll realize what he's doing wrong, how immoral it is, and change thanks to the ‘Journalist'. The loss of his AI will set him into a depression where he realizes that he can't complete much without him, until the revelation that he can make much more human choices. Submission script: "Hold up. You were deceiving us this whole time? I wasted blood, sweat and some other guy's car for nothing??", "Taciturn, you take the elevator down. The big one. Max, give the tech. Dex, run sims for our plan and relay any and all uncounted variables to my HUD." "Journalist", Named Andrew. Support Character Armor: Actor choice, must be unique Personality: Young and upfront, he is direct about his ideals and not afraid to stand up to the, but doesn't realize the consequences until too late. Submission script: "You, you just can't waste people's lives just because you want something! Whether it's moral or not, whether it's important or not, you can't go around for the sake of going around much like how my mom shouldn't waste money because she wanted to buy stuff!" "Uh, no. I don't live with my mom. Oh, and by the way, the car you blew up just to jump on. That, that was my spacebook's friends car." 'AI', named Dex [Taken by Jl1223 X] Support character. No Armor Personality: Helpful, capable but too full of the sense of duty, even though he is a good friend of Stormer's in the end his goal is to help achieve what Stormer commanded and not what he wants. Submission script: "Calculated that at this height, Taciturn has an 11.25% chance of not dying, a 3% chance of surviving with minimal injuries, an 82.95% chance of death upon impact, a 0.69% chance of death by the ventilation systems failing and Tac vomiting into himself due to terminal velocity and added variables of any form of death to take up the remaining percentages." "Good....bye....sir. I hope I....helped." 'Zudo', named Wallace Support Character Armor: Actor choice, must be unique Personality: The ordnance-man of the team, he loves big booms and big weapons. He'll be carrying a turret, a rocket launcher, a sticky detonator, grenades, whatever. He is jolly, and not afraid to crack jokes no matter where they are. Submission Script: "Hehehe! Rocket launcher, Turret, Grenades, The little red dot gun, what else am I missing? Oh, yes. The ordnance pod itself." "Hello, sir. This is my turret, anderson. He is my personal internet hotspot thingy. If I press this button, it can teach me exactly what your body armor's weakness is. And if I - oh, wait. That's an advert. And that's a lady with a thong." 'Taciturn', named Jake/Alice. Support Character Armor: Actor choice, must have 1 color be black. Personality: The infiltration specialist of the team, he/she is silent, relying on deadly tactics against his/her enemies. He/she only talks about things if he needs to, but can definitely be relied on if need be. Submission text: "Yes sir." "No, sir. That won't be necessary. I'll be jumping forwards. With Dex, I can time it so I'll enter the facility silently and behind everyone." 'Max', named Max. Support Character Armor: Actor choice Personality: The man who can organize things, he is a capable shooter but favors being at the back, concentrating on making sure everything works and nobody dies, being able to factor in any new info and any inconsistencies and chances to formulate the best plan available and capable of fluctuation. He doesn't always love cracking jokes, being very serious. Submission text: "Sir, Tac has taken the sonar devices. She's placed them all. We now have a map of the whole facility." "Would you like me to join you? There's an off chance that the device won't be at the predicted locale. I can help you find it, and take out whoever's in the way." Antagonists and enemies "Vector", named Zachariah Main Antagonist Armor: Actor choice Personality: Leader, definitive, and respective yet demanding to his henchmen. He is not that great of a fighter, but his ability to plan ahead probably beats Max's skill. Vector's only weakness is his arrogance, and even that he knows. During the first part of the machinima he is an 'ally' but is revealed to be the baddie later on. Submission text: "Yes, yes. I did deceive you. I wanted the tech because of the fortune. I promised you an extra because I knew you would want it badly enough to ensure success. And now that I have it, I have also ensured that you can't succeed again. So....how do you want to leave? By yourself, or by me?" "No! You can't do anything! Anything! How....how did you get here?" "Zeed" He's just that guy who Stormer has to fight alone while the battle rages around them. Armor: Actor choice Personality: Gives his respect and credit where it is due, but other than that, he is a cheater, fighter, and selfish. He goes for the money, not anything else. Submission text: "You can't defeat me even if you had 10 soldiers supporting you and that little AI of yours." "You are a true man...." Other characters Soldiers (I need multiple, so quite a few people can do them and get in): "He's attacking! Get him!" "Woah! Since when did people win with swords in gunfights?" "Hey! I just found a hotspo- oh, wait. That's a lady in a thong." "What? Hey, lemme see." "Get to cover!" "Watch out! They're breaking in to the vault!" "My stash! Don't look at that folder-hey! Privacy, mate!" "Grenade!" "Reload! Anyone got mags?" Guards (Again, I need multiple. You guys can get in easily.): "Out is that way. Out is this way too." "We will beat you to a pulp and send you to the citrus pulp factory place." "Am I right or am I right?" "You can't fight all of us at once." "They pay well, and don't check your browser history." BODY ACTING I'll be posting body acting sessions below, and also hosting games. Credits - will be edited Director, Scriptor, Editor, Producer: JL Stormer: Andrew: Dex: Zudo: Taciturn: Max: Vector: Zeed: Soldiers: Guards: Body Actors: Forgers:

Hello Ladies, Gentlemen, Spartans and off world species. My Name is Scotty. After years of watching RVB, and other similar Machinima Based videos and feature lengths, i have taken it upon myself to become more involved within the making of Machinima. With this said. i am looking to bring together a group of people who have similar interest's in machinima, voice acting and of course Halo. I would like to start small, making videos of a spoof nature similar to RVB. Then move onto more intrinsic videos, such as the later Red Vs Blue series. These videos will be comedy related in nature for the most part. But also with a mix of serious nature about them as well. Not only this, but i would like to push to podcast and other material if the opportunity arises. I have a HD PVR recorder already at my end, other graphic's recorders on your part + Mic's would be an advantage and appreciated, but not 100% required. The material will not solely be written by myself, and i would like to give budding writers the chance to script the episodes as well. This is to be a group effort, and not something over seen and run by just me. If you have no experience with machinima, its not a problem either. It's all part of the learning and fun aspect. If you wish to help start this new project from the ground up, please get in touch. At present we have no name, and no episodes scripted. So as i said before, this is a start up project. It will be you, me and the entire group pushing to write and produce these episodes for internet distribution. If this interests you, in anyway please get in contact. I am currently UK based, but there is no restriction on locations throughout the globe. Age on the other hand, this is up for a group debate. Due to the nature of potential scripts and episodes, i would like a mature, 'and by that i just mean over 18' perspective. But don't let this deter you from getting in contact. You never know, the answer might be yes. Cheers Guys. Girls. and everyone else. -Scotty-

So i've been recently getting these urges to get into machinima again (earlier attempts were... lets not talk about them) and i've found myself getting few ideas. I finally got one good idea which i want to turn into a series but im gonna need help. I have already gone into halo 4 and made the map so all I need now is the storyline and scripts... and filming it and- you know what i mean. So the idea which i liked so much is an attempt at a comedy (of sorts). It follows a shop, more specifically a guy who works in the shop. Im very early in planning right now so we'll call this guy Jaime (better names are accepted). Anyways, it follows Jaime and his co-workers (number needs to be specified) in they're crazy events at the shop and from time to time outside the shop. They're rivalling with the next door shop which always has big shipments and better overall merchandise. Everything will be within Halo 4, as stated before. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. -Ian

Hello everybody. I uploaded a new video to youtube today. It is called 50 more ways to die in Halo Reach. if anyone is interested in watching it, just click on the link below. If you enjoy it, please leave a comment. I know Halo Reach is an older game, but i did start this project nearly a year ago, so Halo 4 wasn't out yet.

Introductions are always awkward. Anyway, wuddup, fellow fanatics. I am Sgt Rorschach, long-time Halo player, and machinima writer. My notable works consist of co-writing/co-directing Tempus Maximus, co-writing Dawn of the Titans (by Digital Virus), and co-directing Rise of the Spartans. I've been playing Halo since before Halo 2's release, and have been enjoying (more or less) Halo on XBL for nearly just as long. What I'm doing on this website I don't really know, but I certainly hope I enjoy my stay here.

i am a major machinima maker and forger and i use the lower weapon feature a lot but since halo 4 came out that feature seems to have been majorly nerfed and is harder to work with. here are some examples: --lowering weapons only works well if your standing if you move around your gun comes right back up (making you look like an idiot ater its done) --343 never added in the energy swords lower weapon option so machnima makers cant make it look as if they are just walking around hands by there sides --the button layout to do this is also annoying to use its fine for easy activating it but if you plan on bring your gun up and down a lot you act like an idiot jumping and crouching. those are some of the main problems i find in the current feature and if i where to suggest things to add to it besides changing the problems above would be: -- the major one make it usable over xbox live only in like forge and custom games and add an option so the host can allow them to do it or not . --add in a lower weapon option for objects like the turrets(if not already there) the ball,flags,and grav ham. -- if you have the feuture active when entering a passenger seat u sit instead of aiming your weapon that is what i personally think 343 should improve on and add to halo 4.

We need to hold this position for as long as we can! Command said there were supposed to be ODST's and a team of SPARTAN's on their way.

We're running low on ammo and we already have a KIA! Where is that BACKUP!!?" -COMMAND: "I'm sorry for your bad news. Your backup has had a little resistance and was forced to stop and fight. But they are currently enroute to your position. Their E.T.A. is three minutes." MARINE LEADER: "They better be, we're down to our last two mags! Seargant Sanders out!"

We are out of ammo and cannot hold this position any more without assistance." -TANK: "It's ok Seargent. My Spartan team and two ODST's are here with ammo and a convoy out of here. This position can wait for another day. But right now, we need to get the hell out of here!" -FOEHAMMER: "Sorry for interupting your get-together, but if you want to get out of here with little resistance, then you all need to get your asses over here!" -CHAOS: "FoeHammer is right! As much as I would like to stay and fight, we need to get these marines out of here!" -ICE: "TANK! New contacts! These are big! I'm reading at least two Wraiths, three Ghosts, and five Banshees! We don't have the proper firepower to take on these new contacts. We wont survive. We need to-" -TANK: "-I know ICE."(Takes a short pause, takes a deep breath.)"Spartans, ODST's, Marines, let's move! We need to reach the convoy before the Covenant reach us." -ZEUS: "TANK. I recon that by the time we reach the convoy, the Banshees will have reached us." -ICE: "New contact! Wait... I'm reading multiple contacts all over."(Pauses for a few seconds)"Stop! They're camoflaged Elites." -FOEHAMMER: "TTANK! What's going on? Your blood pressure has just raised. What's going on? Fill me in. Are you ok?" (The COM is silent for a few seconds) -TANK: "We have camoflaged Elites around us. We don't know how many there are. I need you to come around and flank the Elites.Hurry!" -FOEHAMMER: "I'm on my way." Scene 8: (FoeHammer is sitting in the warthog waiting, looking a the Spartan's vital signs) -FOEHAMMER: "TANK! What's going on? Your blood pressure has just raised. What's going on? Fill me in. Are you ok?" (The COM is silent for a few seconds) -TANK: "We have camoflaged Elites around us. We don't know how many there are. I need you to come around and flank the Elites. Hurry!" -FOEHAMMER: "I'm on my way."(Drives around the mountain, gets into position to flank the Elites)"I don't see you TANK! I need to know where you are. Respond!" -TANK: "We're at the bottom of a small cliff that has the shape of a U." -FOEHAMMER: "Ok, I got you on my radar. I'm coming in. Get ready to fire the "GUN"." -TANK: "I got you on my radar. Be careful, we don't know were the Elites are at. But they aren't on our radar any more. Hurry! I'm bringing an ODST." -FOEHAMMER: "I hear you loud and clear. I'm coming around now." -ICE: "FoeHammer, TANK. Hurry back." ODST Scene: A group of six ODST's are walking through a corridor, checking each room as they go. There are five rooms that they check. three of them have Elites in them. The other two are empty. They finally get to the room on the far end. They push their way in, and assassinate four elites at the same time. Three more Elites come around the corner and get shotgunned in the face. There are four open windows. The leader of the ODST's (gold) tells the two snipers to cover the windows (window watcher) that are facing the same direction. He tells the DMRist to cover one of the open windows. He then tells the one of the ODST's to cover the corner to the room. And he tells the other ODST to cover the entrance to the room. He then covers a window in the room. They read their radars, and notice that there is a massive wave of covenant coming their way. The leader orders the window watchers to open fire when they have a clear sight of the covenant. He then tells the two ODST's that are covering the room that if any covenant break through the barrier, they're theirs. (Big battle scene) An elite finally breaks through the barrier, kills the ODST coverting the corner. The ODST covering the room tells the leader that there is a problem outside the room, but in midsentence, he is killed by the elite.the Elite then proceeds through into the room and is immediately shot down by a sniper bullet. The leader then backs away from his window, and resumes the fallen ODSTs' position outside the room. (Another big battle scene) The Elites have finally stopped coming, and the ODST's gather their equipment, and head out. Fight Scene -ZEUS: "Marines! Get over here and cover fire! ODST's! Help me get these warthogs back up! TANK! We are trying to do our best to keep them off, but there's just too much. I'm already losing men left and right. You need to hurry your *** up and help us get these warthogs back to operational order!" -TANK: "I'm going as fast as I can ZEUS. But this procedure takes time. I need you to hold them off a little more. And you are a SPARTAN? Right ZEUS?" -ZEUS: "Yes TANK. I am a spartan." -TANK: "Good, then you should be able to flip those warthogs over and get them running again." -ZEUS: "Yes TANK. ODST's! Give me cover fire while I flip the warthogs! Go go go! Damn UNSC. Why couldn't you have made the warthogs lighter?" (ZEUS goes behind the hogs so the camera loses site of him and he flips the hogs.) -ZEUS: "Damn! That was a little difficult. Marines! ODST's! Mount on these hogs! On the double! Move! Those of you who don't fit, will walk beside the hogs. We will provide your ammo. Now move! TANK! You done in there?" -TANK: "Yes. I'm done. I'm on my way out now. And ZEUS, I have the package. We need to get out of here, now! I rigged this place to blow!" -ZEUS: "Yes sir! Marines ODST's, cover TANK, he's got an important package that is worth more than your lives! So you need to protect him at all costs. Your lives depend on it!" -TANK: "Come in FoeHammer. Do you read me?" -FOEHAMMER: "I read you loud and clear. What's the situation TANK?" -TANK: "I need an emergency evac and cover fire mission ASAP!" -FOEHAMMER: "On my way. And I am also bringing another falcon with a very experienced pilot. This is his seventh op.." -TANK: "Perfect. We'll need all that we can get." New Flashback Scene: -C.O.: "Are you sure that you are ready to lead men into battle?" -ALEXANDER(TANK): "Sir. Yes sir." -C.O.: "Are you sure that you are ready to commit your men into battle, knowing that some, if not most, of them will die?" -ALEXANDER(TANK): "Yes sir. I'm sure that I'm ready for that." -C.O.: "Are you sure that you are willing to send your men to their death so that you can complete your objective?" -ALEXANDER(TANK): "Yes sir. I am sure that I'm ready for that. I'm ready to do anything that is neccesary to complete my object." -C.O.: "So. Do you think that you have what it takes to be a leader? To send your men into battle, knowing that they will die so that you can complete your objective. Along with all this, you also know that if this AI that you will be taking along, is in danger of being captured, we will have you terminated so that the Covenant are unable to use that AI against us?" -ALEXANDER(TANK): "Yes sir. I am ready for all of this." -C.O.: "Well, let me give you some advise. You are not ready for this. you wont be ready for this until you have sent some of your own men, your own friends and sometimes even your own family, to their death. Once you have done this, I will know that you are becoming a leader. That you will be the soldier we need you to be. In addition, when you are a leader, you will need to understabd that when things get too hot, and you call for some backup or an emergency pick-up, you will need to know that you wiill sometimes have to call it off in order to protect the transportation. And, you need to know that there is no back-up or transportation. Sometimes, you have to stay and fight everything off, even if that means that you die, just to protect humanity. Are you sure that you are ready for that?" -ALEXANDER(TANK): "Yes sir. I am sure that I am ready for all of this. If I have to sacrafice myself, in order to keep humanity safe, then that's what I will need to do." -C.O.: "Well then, there's only one more thing to do, and that's to make you a SPARTAN." -ALEXANDER(TANK): "Good. When do we begin, sir?" -C.O.: "We begin immediately." Flashback: (Alexander(TANK) is having a flashback to when he wasn't part of Onyx team yet and wasn't known as TANK yet. This was also when Jon, aka FoeHammer, is picking up Alexander, aka TANK, to take him to HQ and meet a new member to his squad, the new member turns out to be new members. Those members are Sam(CHAOS), Michael(ICE), and Geoffery(Zeus). FOEHAMMER: "How's your day today Spartan?" ALEXANDER: "I don't want to talk about it!" FOEHAMMER: "All right, all right. HQ wanted me to pick you up and get you over there as fast as I could." ALEXANDER: "Why, what do they want this time?" FOEHAMMER: "They said something about you being a new squad leader, and that their issuing you your new squad member." TANK: "All right pilot. Get me there ASAP. This is important. Oh, and pilot, what am I supposed to call you? I'm tired of calling you pilot." FOEHAMMER: "My name is Jon. But I go by FoeHammer." TANK: "Thats perfect. I hope that you are my pilot again FoeHammer. It was nice talking with you. Tell me, are you a good pilot in an air-to-air combat, or an air-to-ground combat?" FOEHAMMER: "Yes I am. Infact, I am considered the best pilot out there from a few other Spartans who have had the honor of being in my falcon." TANK: "That perfect. Well when I'm in need of a pilot, I'll be sure to ask for you." FOEHAMMER: "Thanks. I'll make sure that I can make it. Alexander, we're here." TANK: "Thanks for the lift FoeHammer. Hopefully I'll see you soon in the battlefield." FOEHAMMER: "Good. I'll be looking forward to it." Inspirational Line -"Success is not determined by the amount of ships we have. It's determined by our force, how we act and react on the enemy. And most important, how well we keep order in the ranks." Vehicle Battle Scene: (FoeHammer is driving two ODST's in a warthog. A lone Revenant is on a patrol and spots the warthog. The Revenant then starts to pursue the warthog. The Revenant also has a passenger who has a plasma rifle. There are some orders that are said among the humans in the warthog. FoeHammer performs a move in the warthog that catches the Revenant off guard. This move is known as the "Switch-A-Round." And FoeHammer is the only pilot/marine that has master this move with perfection.) FOEHAMMER: "Alright ODST's. HQ has ordered me to take you two out for a patrol. If there is any trouble, HQ has told me that you two are to follow all of my orders. Is that clear?" ODST(RED, YELLOW): "Yes sir, we understand." FOEHAMMER: "Ok. Good. As long as we understand each other." (This is now the part where the Revenant is pursuing the warthog.) FOEHAMMER: "ODST's! I'm going to do a manuver that will give you a tactical advantage. When I say to shoot, I want you to shoot. No sooner. And no later!" ODST'S(RED, YELLOW): "Yes sir!" (FoeHammer now performs the manuver.) FOEHAMMER: "Now! Shoot!" (At this point the Revenant catches on fire, slows down, and blows up.) FOEHAMMER: "Thats how it's done ODST's!"

Hello to all in the forum! I am currently working on a machinima about peace talks between the UNSC and the Sangheli. I will eventually need body actors for a substantial amount of people. I will not need voice actors as I will be doing that locally. I am currently working on the script, but If you are interested in body acting in halo reach, or if you would like more information about the script and the story, respond to this post. -Church

I will be needing help to make this new series that is a different type of machinima I will be needing body actors and eventually voice actors... I have one voice actor position taken. I have what I have listed on my Youtube here http://www.youtube.c...T/feed?filter=2 Here is a trailer for the new machinima http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUckUewr0DM&feature=plcp

I'm the leader of ToksykGaming. My name is Ace. I'd like to find some new people to play with online on Halo 4. Toksyk Gaming is a small group of people that don't mind partying up to do Spartan ops, War Games, hunt achievements, and test Custom Games maps. We wanted to expand because the main four of us started having some minor complications with our gaming schedule, so it seems we're never on at the same time. We'd like to see what other people have to offer, so TGU is now open to anybody who meets these requirements: Must have a working mic (Kinect doesn't count), must have Halo 4 (obviously), and must be 18 years of age minimum (or at least not a squeaker). Those terms are fairly easy to meet, so I'm hoping some of you guys would like to join. If you meet the requirements and would like to join, HMU on XBL with a message saying you're from the forum and want to join. Backstory- All of our members are from rather large clans that were often unsupportive or required too much out of us. We decided to start a small group and we promised to keep it small enough so that we have people to play with, and that people wouldn't be ignored. Thus, TGU. We occasionally film machinima-style videos and I will do some PC stuff (Minecraft, DCU Online, TF2), with the collaboration of a small clan called the GoD X Clan (godzxclann on youtube) and we're always open to volunteers. I hope to be in contact with some of you soon. - Ace of Spades, Leader

Ok so With some remnants of Red team out in who knows where of space, and Gray team from a mission on a prowler, i think that maybe another few Infinity-class ships are made and the machinima follows the U.N.S.C. Longbow (unofficial name) as they try to find more forerunner relics to advance in technology. Machinima Name in 2556 the UNSC built a small number of gargantuan ships called Infinity class cruisers, The UNSC Longbow launched 2554 has a job to find any other halos, shield worlds, or line installations. 7 years earlier, the UNSC (name) has returned from Gray teams sabotage mission (of something) and Gray team has been sent on a mission, we lost contact with Gray team 6 years ago. While the UNSC longbow is flying around, it stumbles across the destroyed remnants of a UNSC planet, the longbow sends troops to see what had happened, while the Longbow supports the Spartan-IV project, one of their teams is sent to the surface to investigate a forerunner artifact, the Pelican gets shot down, Fire Team Titan (the spartan team on the mission) emerges from the crash with barely scratches, the armor up and fend off what they found out is a giant Insurrectionist Colony that has kept themselves secluded and hidden far from UNSC space. Titan is taking lots of fire and is about to be overrun when suddenly a unknown persona emerges and kills them all, this ends up being Adriana-111, she helps them out and they get rescued, she is brought to the bridge to see whats going on, Adriana talks about the mission and what is happened, she also talks about how Mike crashed the one of the prowlers lifepods, and was immediatly attacked by heavily armed rebels he was overrun by 100s to 1 odds and was killed, Jai and Adriana had went down in seperate pods and searched out to for Mike to see him dead. Jai and Adriana go setup for rescue, and how 4 months ago Jai was on a scouting mission when his suit was attacked by a major EMP and he was taken capture, she then asks for help from the crew to save him, this ends up in a series of battles and fights, to where Fire Teams Titan and Ankh with Adriana have made it to Jai's holding cell to find him in such injuries even a Spartan would have a hard time surviving, he is immediatley taken aboard the Longbow where he is attempted to survive, after his healing they decide his injuries are far beyond compare, although the rebels got nothing from it, Jai asks if he can get his revenge by attacking them where it hurts, he talks about how he wont make it anyways and that if he can nuke them off it will surely help the Longbow escape (the rebels have used forerunner tech to there prototype ships and its causing the longbow a lot of trouble, the captain approves and Jai does his mission with the help of a Elite Marine Squad. Season 1 ends. Season 2, now with only Adriana left, the Longbow requests for her to stay aboard. While Traveling to find the artifacts, the Longbow engages a anomalous Human Ship (this turns out to be the Spirit of Fire) over a planet which seems of some intrest, The Longbow sends down Ground teams, Titan finds a small group of soldiers and a Spartan saying he is Spartan-042 of the UNSC Spirit of Fire, Titan unbelievingly brings him aboard and figures out that It truely was Douglas-042, he explains the ship was hit from an anomaly and they had to wake up from cryo sleep and evac the ship about 6 weeks ago, the 3 Spartans were separated as well with the rest of the crew. Douglas soon finds out Adriana is onboard and is excited to see her because lots of Spartans were separated for their vast missions, and Douglas' team and Adriana's team were more friends among them then lots of the others. The two Spartan-IIs go with the rest of the spartans and marines to find the crew of the "spirit." and it could go on, but if anyone wants to use the idea in some way, Message me, my GT is NeptunesShadow. I would love to see this become a hit and watch it, it seems like a good idea one what happened to thes spartans that were litterally M.I.A. or Just basically forgotten about.

I'd really appreciate if you'd check it out and please leave constructive critism so I am able to make it the best series I possibly can. Thanks Rob. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfBLXCtyGho
