Alright lets paint a masterpiece here and create an epic last satnd for humanity!!:victory:
In the year 2525 A.D all contact was lost with the planet Harvest, a newly found colony on the Outer Rim. The UNSC (United Nations Space Command) dispatched the ship The Argo to investigate the situation; and even that was never heard from again. Thus later that year in October the UNSC dispatched a battle fleet, headed by the destroyer Hercules, to investigate the incident. Three weeks later only the Hercules returned to the planet Reach where its captain relayed an incredible story that would forever change the face of humanity. His force had emerged and discovered the planet to be obliterated and changed to a glassy substance. His forces had also discovered an alien ship and had attempted to hail it on all communication frequencies. The aliens had replied, “Your destruction is the will of the Gods….and we are their holy instruments.” The ship destroyed his force and the Hercules was barely able to escape.
Thus with this tale, humanity discovered that finally they were not alone in the galaxy, and that other life forms did exist. However, the terrible news that these aliens were not only hostile but had superior technology began to sink in as one by one the outer colonies fell to their incessant attacks. Soon dubbed the” Covenant,” after one of the captured aliens said it with his dying breath. The Covenant swept in and crushed the main Inner colonies, Alpha-Prime, the Omega Outpost Station, York, and others that were main hubs of manufacture and culture for humanity. Finally, in 2552 the Covenant found Reach, the UNSC’s last major base and humanities last bastion against the incessant alien tide.
After a brief clash with advance forces, the Covenant attacked in force, and thus the battle for humanities last bastion begun. Anyone that can carry a rifle, from civilian to Spartan, has been drafted to fight for their lives against the technologically superior alien’s hell bent on exterminating them all in the name of their Gods and Covenant.

Alright, good story, moving on. You are part of a UNSC infantry battalion that has been stationed on Reach for the last two years. Bad luck, the Covenant have come and now you find yourselves in the middle of one of the most epic battles in the Covenant-Human War(yeah, I made that up, IDK if that’s what they call it). It has been a month and a half since you last new peace and the fight has been long and hard. You have lost many friends; seen things that would normally drive a man mad thrice over, and in general have been to hell and back. Our unit has been given new orders that involve us in a special mission that is of the upmost top secret for the survival of humanity. However, you find out that our task is, along with other units, to defend a non-existent base, rumored to belong to ONI, until a special unit arrives. There protection is your top priority and thus you cannot fail, for if you do, humanity may be doom to an apocalyptic destruction seen only on biblical scale.
Ok, I am looking for around 8-10 people but we will work with anyone else that’s interested. You are a normal human, like Imperial Guard, and can choose from the armor and equipment below. You are part of a platoon; which is two 5 man squads commanded by a PL (platoon leader). I’m basing this off of my Army experience, so bear with me if it’s a little technical.
Rules:
1. I’M THE BOSS, OK!! I reserve the right to change the story, and other blah,blah,blah. Basically put, run things by me before going nuts.
2. Keep GM’ing to a minimal. I like players to explore a little, but no storyline changing stuff, ok. You will die a horrible death if you do.
3. Remember that you are not Spartans, you are normal humans. Nothing insanely inhuman, ok!!!
4. I ask that your posts be at least 10 sentences, and that you post at least once every day. If you are a little late I will accept it, but after a week you will be left to be target practice for Covenant jackal snipers.
5. You will be interacting with Spartans in the story, so leave your character some room to develop, Remember, you’re not dead yet,

again, I'm gonna have to hand out rep for the video. I actually based this on a Halo Wars/Reach hybrid so yes, its gonna be alot like what you see in the first half of the video, just with our own twists, no Spartans super humans here. though we will interact with them as the story builds.
