This is just a feeler to see if anyone is interested in a group story set in Bungie's Halo universe. Kind of like the Army NPC stories a while ago, but with Marines and Elites, or even Grunts. If interested, drop me a PM or reply...

I was thinking of a campaign centered around a planet called Aidenn, approximately a month before the Battle of Reach. Player characters would be either Covvies (only a few Brutes at most) or Human (anything, except SPARTANS). Yes, the SPARTANS are the game's player chars, yes they're badass, but they're just too overpowered and plot wrecking. Anything from ODSTs to Grunts are fine, though. There's would also be a small space battle if anyone like writing about pulse lasers and MACs...

I'm in

I feel that missions without Spartans are more exciting, do to the fact that you get to do the killing :P

Char. 1:
ODST Sergeant William Gates 3rd Platoon, 105th ODST Division

Char. 2:
UNSC Navy Officer Captain Paul Harrison, captain of the Destroyer Integral

Char. 3:
ODST Corporal Kyle 'One Man Army' Johnson 5th Platoon, 105th ODST Division

Char1: ODST Private Sean Lasane, 2nd Platoon, 105 ODST Division
Char 2:  ODST Coporal Alex"Smitty" Smithon, 1st platoon, 105 ODST Division
Char3: UNSC Naval Officer Will Manty, Captain of destroyer Stargazer

Well, let's get it on!

Ewww, Halo!

/me gags and runs

Sorry- don't want to rush you. I just get a bit impatient.
I'll be on the watch for your post.

*Rubs hands in anticipation*

And the post is...done. Have fun with the First Battle of Eva.

I don't see why not... :P
I'm writing mostly as the Covvies though, so I guess mine is "Wort Wort Wort"...

ok, folks Plot Summary:

Battle of Sherman Bridge

1/3 of Covenant forces are there
There's an Ultra Elite commanding hundreds of infantry, a cluster of Wraiths/Ghosts/Etc and a single Phantom for air support. No Banshees, so they're pretty much screwed against Hornets.
Covvies will lose this one. Some may retreat.

Basically, the Covenant have screwed themselves over. They're outnumbered for once, their space forces were decimated, and their leading group is about to get a nasty shock.

No Brutes yet, maybe a single Drone swarm at most. Same for Brute weapons. No Halo 3 era weapons.

Just so everyone knows: there are no reinforcements for either side in system yet. Garryl's ships will get here after the Covvie task force, but there were a pair of ships already en route to the system. I'll update the space arena after the ground problem's taken care of, and open it up for everyone then.

Guys, do you mind if I post this as a whole to fanfiction.net? Each post's author will be in parenthesis above the chapter title...

Tis fine with me. I would also like to apologize for not posting. Real big fan of Halo and was all hyped when this was made, but my creative writing abilities just has no been cooperating lately.

This will be kind of fun for getting my writing back up to par.
