"Fleetmaster, we are having reports of several Forerunner vessels matching the specifications of the ones described on Citadel approaching the planet!" "Retrieve them, we can not let them fall into the Arbiters, or Juls, or any other Kaidons hands." Ordered Kjal. Some Banshees and Shortswords swept into low orbit and guided the ships to a designated landing area. Kjal, Zhak and some Human Shimasters walked to greet them.

The Carrier appeared back in the Sanghelios system. It made a heading straight for 'Voteamee keep, and shot down one or two ships the Arbiter had sent to stop them. Zhak walked up to the Council Chambers. Inside were high Generals and Fleetmasters of every species; Unggoy to Sangheili. He walked up to a podium, which rose into the sir on gravity lifts as hovering cameras recorded his report and broadcast it across the temple. "High Fleetmaster, I return with news and a report." He began. "When we exited slipstream, our Luminaries showed hundreds of sites, all Forerunner." A whisper swept through the crowd."as we approached, we found a colony of Humans there, they were not the UNSC, for their flag, arms and designs were different. They have... 'Declined' our offer to study these sites without hostilities, when a Forerunner Sentinel fleet engaged combat." The whispering was now outright shouting, some praising the discoveries, others baying for blood at the news of destroying the machines.'"They have one week, as requested, to make an offer that can please both sides. Our threat assessment has conducted a four- should they decline all negotians, we have no choice but to wipe them clear from this world." He finished with. He backed out of the chamber, to let the council decide what course of action they would take. It was already decided of course, but not formalised. He collected his weapons from the Lekgolo guards and left the site. ((Threat levels, 1 being absurdly no danger of harming relics, 4 being must be destroyed.))

Hey Syko, I thought of a (Possible) motive for you being here- the Flood has nearly destroyed your galaxy, and using Precursor tech, you managed to get here, where you are looking to start a new world? I wondered if you wanted this. Obviously, you don't have to but it could be if you get stuck for something? -
Any forge or body acting positions? I'm a great aesthetic forger, if I do say so myself.

The Fleet Master pulled his energy sword. "Do not underestimate us Fresident." The Assault Carrier appeared above the clouds."we will be back. And I do hope we can find some way of reaching a deal, but otherwise...) he put the tips of the sword to her throat, millimetres away, "we will return in one week." He motioned for one of the shipmasters forward. "One Sanghelios week approximately 8.53 days on Citadel V" "You have until then to prepare terms of access. And next time, our fleet will be much larger, insurance in case of... Hostilities." He finished with. The Prowler disengaged her cloak behind them, released the dropships used to bring them here which landed behind them. The parties boarded their respective ships which extorted into the bays of the prowler. In orbit, the CCS battlecruisers docked inside the Carrier. The Prowler cane inside the bay and shut down. A hole was ripped into the fabric of space. Then all ships were gone.

Oh why? I mean, we can start on ground or I could big out when you are distracted and retreat to Sanghelios -
The Fleetmaster, and two Human shipmasters accompanied by their contingent of guards holstered their weapons. "Fresident" began the Sangheili, unable to pronounce the 'P' sound. "Our ships luminaries state numerous Forunner temples lay scattered around this world. The Talon of Sanghelios is devoted to finding, researching and using Artefacts to benefit us, or protect the ones too powerful for other species to have. Now, we request access to, and the ability to establish permanent bases on these relic sites." He looked up. "If we cannot research these places in peace, we will have to take them by force." He finished, as guards of both sides raised weapons and turned off the safeties.

Ledgend, how about you start shooting sentinels, thinking they're us. I manage to get in the atmosphere before you try to kill us, my prowler comes in, picks up the ships, and my fleet stays with the carrier while the Slipspace drives recharge and fend off sentinel attacks. (Sentinels assume all humans are same faction) -
"One Lich heavy dropship and two Pelicans began to make their way to the rendezvous point. Each one had two squads, or in the case of the Lich, a Platoon made up of various Sangheili and Human forces. Alongside we're three Seraph fighters, two LongSwords and a Sabre. The Prowler remained outside the planets orbit, guns tracking the area around the ships. Anything that began to shoot, they'd know about it.

The spartan II trainers used MK I prototypes to train against the Spartans. Before that, they were used in loading etc at docks before being dumped.

I would like a covenant aircraft, capable if transporting infantry. And some Promethean designs. And the falcon.

"We are Talons of Sanghelios, this is Fleetmaster Zhak 'Votramee, requesting prescence to land a diplomatic team. Our scans show prescense of artefacts." Was the message. The battleships stopped moving just outside the requested range. The Prowler activated cloak and continued forward, undetected. The carrier slipped around the planet with Slipspace, emerged behind its moon, and waited for a call to action.

The three CCS cruisers, Assault Carrier and former ONI prowler stepped back into normal space, they bared upon the world, called 'Citadel V' according to older navigation maps. They hailed the planet, wishing to send a group to discuss treatment of artefacts on the planet.

"Admiral, cruisers Shadowing Spirit, Pinnacle of Truth and Light in the Darkness reporting green lights for lift-off. The stealth prowler Leave no Trace is ready to provide fire support and exfoliate, should we need it" reported the Human stood by his side. "What destination should we plot?" A holo map was pulled up. "This planet, deep in the former territory of the 'youenessee' is littered with Artefacts. Prepare the jump into slipstream, talk peace with the inhabitants into joining the Talon. Or destroy them." Ordered the eight foot Sangheili. "Our Assault Carrier will wait on the other side of the fourth planet in the system, if we are in need of support."

No, the armour. Not everything else. Even if its just like a vent on the neck that can get grenades lodged in it or something. Just something that makes it not invulnerable. -
It is the year 2578, and humanity has made great advances in they years following the Wars that nearly caused their extinction and is now much more powerful than ever! Recently though, remnants of the Insurrectionidts that plagued the UNSC over fifty years ago have resurfaced, with new technology of their own. Recent Fighting has caused many colonies to break away, and begin their own ideals. This is where you come in- you must create a faction(using the faction sheet below) and join the battle between hindreds of worlds in an attempt to gain control of one of the largest empires since the Forrunners. Rules- -The flagship of a fleet can be no bigger than the Infinity or similar size. -Slipspace travelling can take a few weeks for nearby planets, and months for further away planets. -Humans cannot jump accurately and must exit millions of kilometres away from a planet -covenant can arrive next to a planet -No OP faction -No forerunner/precursor faction UNLESS it is done EXTREMELY well (Sentinels, Prometheans, monitors from installations are fine though) -Same with Flood and Ancient human factions -it would take weeks, if not months to conquer a planet. GLASSING IS PROHIBITED AND MUST BE AGRREED UPON! -invading an occupied planet/system must be agreed upon -there should be two-three people operating a faction- one as a higher up person and two normal people/soldiers - remember the powers if weapons. A CCS battlecruiser can not take a MAC round from an ODP and survive etc Kjal 'Votramee looked upon the 'Votramee keep. Many species were hard at work within the concentric circular structure, building and tending to ships, artefacts and buildings. The place was a fortress, he had the luck to have an entire temple in his backyard! Since discovered, his clan had warred until the place was a fortress, establishing the 'Votramee dominance in the area.

Only if rarely deployed, and there needs to be some way of bringing one down. (PS, putting thread up now) -
I like Mechs.

Well, I joined in August of 12, posted a THFE submission and left a while. I wish I had stated before Halo 4 came out because it sounds like it was a much nicer place before 60 threads were posted every day saying DMR/Boltshot nerfs. I agree overall though, i hate a topic where someone has a rant then doesn't even look at the replies/ help people give them! And side note, has there always been this many spambots?
