Once again Gruntkiller you have proven yourself as one of thee best authors here! __________________________________________________ Vi3tl3l3oi 023(Return of CPT CRAPPER) 3:47 AM | September 11, 2003 damn... the comments r turning into flaming comments! AHHH! __________________________________________________ Alpha Lance 11:14 PM | September 10, 2003 Why do you always say bullshit to everyons story, it pisses me off. __________________________________________________ Jinkaiden-XI 11:10 PM | September 10, 2003 Brendan, I can't seem to understand what your deal is. The way you act when you're here is...childish. __________________________________________________ gruntkiller 5:42 PM | September 10, 2003 thanks alot the next ones is gonna be a while comming soem stuff came up keeping me form being able to write all that often this week __________________________________________________ hornet34 1:05 AM | September 10, 2003 No offense Master Grunt, but I kind of like how it is related to the Two Towers. Its nice to see a little Lord of the Rings-Led Zepplin-Halo triangle going on here. I must admit, a strange mix, but a little thing that this is nice to see every once in a while. __________________________________________________ MasterGrunt 12:11 AM | September 10, 2003 This story was good even if it was a little related to the Two Towers. And here is a comment for Brendan. DON'T WHINE SO MUCH. Even if you didn't like this story that much that doesn't give you the reason to swear up a storm at Gruntkiller. To sum it all up it's called common courtesy. __________________________________________________ Alpha Lance 11:37 PM | September 9, 2003 Gruntkiller, I think Brendan is Sergant B. Look at the time on alot of their comments, and for some reason, they both post one after anouther. But hay man, this, good keep it up, 9.5/10. __________________________________________________ gruntkiller 11:06 PM | September 9, 2003 yup always keep taht in mind too __________________________________________________ Walker 9:45 PM | September 9, 2003 And remember, the medication only works if taken every twelve hours. __________________________________________________ gruntkiller 9:22 PM | September 9, 2003 if your going to say something brenden at least make sure your not talking about yourself __________________________________________________ Brendan Harther 8:14 PM | September 9, 2003 I hate this you jackass. You and that other guy are such bastards. __________________________________________________ Sergeant B 8:12 PM | September 9, 2003 Okay, but you rushed the fight scenes. Don't rush next time or type the story when you don't have anything to do. __________________________________________________ gruntkiller 7:50 PM | September 9, 2003 np i like to hear what ppl think about my stuff __________________________________________________ Wado 7:30 PM | September 9, 2003 Great job Gruntkiller. Nice play-by-play action without bogging down the story with every little detail. Good use of viewpoint characters, Erik no doubt will play a much bigger role in stories to come.
The one problem I had with the story line so far is that things seem a bit isolated. Kind of reminds me of a post-apocalyptic action movie like Mad Max. You have such a compelling story so it can be easy to forget that there is a bigger world around and simple things like a radio can be the soldier's most effective weapon.
I would have liked to see a bit more drama involving radios/communications. Something in the manner of the good guys repeatedly calling in for artillery or air support and getting put on hold or simply getting the "YOYO" (You're On Your Own do the best you can).
Just a few thoughts. Keep up the great work. __________________________________________________ hornet34 5:30 PM | September 9, 2003 The grammar is near perfect and the action intense, but it seemed like you were still rushing it at times. I thought the encounter between the grunt and Erik could have been elaborated upon. Like:
Erik lie in the dense underbrush, desperately aware that he was defenseless to stop the Covenant onslaught. Suddenly, a noise close by caught his attention.
A grunt had wondered from his squad for some unknown reason and was now dangerously close to revealing his position. Erik crept up slowly behind the creature, trying to take it by surprise. He reached down to pick up a stick, but the grunt heard the leaves rustle behind him and turned around.
Erik wasted no time swinging the stick down on the frightened creatures head. The stunned grunt reached for his gun, but Erik was able to get his hand on it first and wrench it from its grasp. A follow-up punch knocked the grunts methane mask loose, and Erik held the creature down while it slowly suffocated.
Erik took the plasma pistol, as well as two plasma grenades he had rummaged from the body, and...
I know its long winded, but I think its a nice one-on-one battle to contrast with the huge engagement about to take place. Sorry for taking up so much forum space, but no one else is using it. LOL
Can't wait for the next chapter. 9.3/10
