I noticed it didnt put his dreams in italics and also sorry about putting so many in this story. I had to find a way to get to his past. There will be barely anymore dreams in my series
Heres a sneak preview:
After a while the Chief could see their massive army of elites, hunters, jackals, grunts, banshees, phantoms, ghosts, and wraiths.
Once they got about ten miles away the hidden tanks on the canyon fired at the wraith tanks and the phantoms coming down the path. Then the chief fired as he saw explosions and heard screams echoing threw the valley. Then alpha base sent long sword fighters and pelicans to give support. He saw rocket soldiers fired at whatever they could on the ground as some of them caused devastating rockslides.
Then the Chief got an order to move behind their army and support their backup tank army that was hidden behind the Covenant army.

It's alright, let me tell you what you're doing wrong.
A) There's nothing really eye catching about this series/story.
B)The action is lacking, use more description. Don't write a two-page intro to the scenery, just a one or two paragraph opener that sets the mood. Trust me, it will help you if you ever go for the horro genre.
C) Don't write the sounds into your story. Change things like "wrrrr" went the warthog's engine to "The heavy jeep's massive engine whirred to life..."-YOu still get the wrrrr sound accomplished.
THat's all I have for now.

Yes, PaYnE, there are some tough critics here . . .
Besides the little items Mainevent noted, I found some other ones:
Make sure to capitalize where needed. Things like races and ranks must be capitalized (Chief, Elite, Ghost, etc.).
Remember to use there, they're, and their correctly. Same for to, too, and two. I'll get you on those ;)
Be sure to uses COMMAS.
You also use the word 'then' too often.
I'm just commenting as I read and I've noticed something: You aren't proofreading. If you want you could send it to Hawk7886@hotmail.com and I could edit it for you and take the blame for any mistakes made. Or you couldn't and I could critisize frivolous mistakes here. I would be happy to edit it for you, and it takes a huge workload off of you.
Since you're fresh meat to the fan-fic section, people are gonna treat you like everyone else, so don't try to use that as an excuse ;)
I suggest you read stories by the highly acclaimed authors like Agent Shade, Frensa Geran, and 'Nosolee so you could better understand how to set-up and execute an excellent story.

Dude beleive me i know, write it in microsoft word and do a grammar check.Even if you proof read you'll miss things.I proof read my series and there were still at least a dozen mistakes when i passed it through microsoft word.If you get the grammar rigth the critics will concentrate on the actual story.

The critics always focus on the story; they just like to point out the mistakes. . .
