Yes, this is a Halo RPG. Before you critisize, this has nothing to do with any of the current characters known in the Halo Universe.

Backstory : You are a UNSC Corporal in the battle of Eridanus II. You must not let your planet get glassed. The UNSC has suffered setback, after setback. This your chance to get revenge.

Name :
Age : (between 22 and 45)
Weapons : (start out with assualt rifle and magnum)
Equipment : (start out with two frags)
Health : 10/10


4 people max. JabelloXI, I'm expecting you to join.

B: the wraiths

I still go for them, as they pose the biggest treat. The phantom can have most punishment and isn't the biggest threat, and the troops deal lesser damage to the tank aswell. Even though that puts my gunner to risk, the wraiths are a risk to both of us. (No, I'm not selfish!)

Please post your character sheet every time you post.

Name: Matthias Soren
Age : 32
Weapons : Assualt rifle and a Magnum
Equipment : Two frag grenades
Health : 10/10

You get two shots at a Wraith, destroying it. The other Wraith fires at you. You easily dodge the one shot, then fire at the Wraith twice which causes it to explode. All of the Phantom's troops are on the ground now. There are 10 grunts and 3 elites. Your gunner tries to fire at them, and manages to kill 3 grunts. The rest of the troops fire at you. A couple grunts throw sticky grenades at your tank. One lands right on it. It explodes. Half of your gunner's body is completely gone. So much for back up. The elites head out in-front of the grunts and start firing. You can't kill both groups in one shot. Who do you attack first?

(I am not telling you the weapons, so you should think about what weapons the Covenent would carry in this situation)

A) The elites
B) The grunts

Risky, but I'd go for B, the grunts. They are seen carrying fuel rod cannons after all. Drive backwards in the meantime, before the elites reach me.

You throw a grenade as hard as you can with your right hand. You somehow manage to throw it far enough for it to have an effect. All of the troops jump to the side except a confused grunt. He is killed by the explosion. The guy with the rocket launcher shoots the Wraith with two of his last 3 shots, destroying it. Then he fires at another ghost, destroying it. He is then killed by the elite. A ghost gets a lucky shot on you again, a little higher on your left arm. (-1 health) There are now 3 ghosts, 2 choppers, 2 grunts, and an elite. They are now much closer. Do you

A) throw your other frag
B) Try to spray with an Assualt Rifle
C) Tell the whole base about the damn attack!!!

Right choice! As you fire, you see 5 of the 7 remaining grunts take out fuel rods. All 7 grunts were for some reason in a big clump. They are all dead. The 3 elites throw plasma grenades at your Scorpion in unison. They all land on your big bad tank and explode. The back of your tank is now on fire, it will explode soon. (yeah, yeah, that doesn't happen in the game. You fire at the elites, one of them manages to jump out of the blast range but is stunned, the other two are dead. Do you

A) Risk firing another shot in the Scorpion
B) Get out and take him out with a frag
C) (get out) Take him out with the assualt rifle
D) (get out) Take him out with the Magnum

I'm not one to take risks, and I don't want to waste grenades or ammo. (Besides, I love the magnum :P)

Since they are closer, you are able to throw the grenade closer to them. You take out the grunts, but the elite jumps out of the way of the explosion, then he shoots you in the left shoulder. (-2 health, your arm might fall off) Hey look reinforcements. 2 hunters, and 5 elites. They are too far away for attacking.

Do you

A) Spray the elite with the assualt rifle
B) Tell your fing superiors about the attack
C) Your own option

Hey guys, if you want to put a bio, you can add it to your character sheet. I'm gonna take a break after this post.

Name: Matthias Soren
Age : 32
Weapons : Assualt rifle and a Magnum
Equipment : Two frag grenades
Health : 10/10

While it's stunned you shoot it in the chest with half of your clip. The elite shoots as it backs up, grabbing his chest. The shot hits you in the left arm (-1 health). In anger you shoot it in the head twice, killing the elite. He falls on the ground dead. Your scorpion explodes.

A) Your own option (there's a bunch of dead bodies around)
B) Call for pick up

Bio: Matthias is a friendly and just person. He is selfless in general and gives more about others than himself. He has respect for the covenant, the elites in special, for they posses skill and a good brain. He is cautious, and usually prefers a tactical approach on the enemy.

A: Pick up a fuel rod cannon, and gather some ammo for it. Also, look for plasma grenades and a health pack.

If the other two players do not post in the next 3 days, I will open up spots.

You get 3 plasma grenades. You also find biofoam near a bit of your deceased comrade. You say a prayer, then take the biofoam and use it. (+ 0.5 health) You find a fuel rod, and you also find a bunch of ammo for it. Now you must make a choice of trading your assualt rifle or your magnum for the fuel rod. Which one will it be?

Name : Jay Abello

FINALLY!

You enter the barracks and wake everybody up. "The covenent are attacking!" Soon the whole base is firing at the enemy. You are scolded for not informing everybody sooner and then taken to the medical bay. At the current time all that the doctor has is biofoam. (+1 health) You go to sleep. You wake up a few hours later. The battle is getting bad for the base. There are onl 20 soldiers left, and the covenent has just called in Locusts. This base has almost no chance of surviving. Do you

A) Escape in a Warthog by yourself? (faster)
B) Escape in a Warthog with two soldiers (safer yet more dangerous)
C) Escape on a Mongoose with a soldier
D) Escape on a Mongoose by yourself
E) Stay and Fight
F) Own Option

By the way, if you don't know, a Locust is like a mini Scarab. It is good at destroying buildings. Here's a few pics :
