Ya she's about to shoot someone lol. And sorry Foster, she told me she's unavailable atm.

Oh, my plan was to let you all stumble upon him doing something, and him reacting as Clover would have.

Then let one of the gang hang a lampshade.
-Or for Clover to ask one of them aside wether or not she was that paranoid when they met her.

Foster said ^Me and shelton see a negligent discharge waiting to happen.

IMO that's the most overlooked part of zombie stories. Death and injury due to stupid accidents/negligence. I wanna' see a beloved character holster their sidearm too quick, put a round through their thigh and bleed out dramatically. Or have an actual misfire or malfunction with their rifles. Or better yet (and hang on cuz this is where it gets wild) I'd like to see them CLEANING their weapons.

Also, the Marine Corps do not wear the ACU.
First off,
the Army Combat Uniform is a type of uniform. Camouflage pattern doesn't matter. It's a zip-up blouse with strips of Velcro on it for insignia etc. and a pair of pants typically with eight pockets (back, front, thigh and ankle) the ACU comes in Multicam/OCP as well as Universal Camouflage Pattern or UCP. UCP is what most people refer to as ACU pattern. It's a grey pixelated pattern that blends in with nothing (except possibly urban scenarios)

The Marine Corps wears the MCCUU, Marine Corps Combat Utility Uniform. It's similar to the ACU but generally without Velcro and with large pockets on the shoulders as well as a different shaped patrol cap. The MCCUU comes in desert and woodland MARPAT (Marine Pattern) a pixelated camouflage pattern that is known to blend in extremely well with its respective environments. In this case Marines would wear the woodland pattern.

That would be bad haha. Two unstable people, one a young teen and the other a young adult. Both armed. Let's go find a school to shoot up.

I've had characters clean their weapons quite often in the past, though it's rarely been all that descriptive due to me not actually knowing how to clean one. I've gotten better with weapons in general though, for example I now know that you do not need to pull the slide back when you slip a fresh clip into a handgun. That fact kinda saddened me though, I love that noise, freaking movies made it seem awesome. :P

You noticed that the last sentance agreed with you all along?*-Kinda makes your rage-post look a bit spastic.*It isn't sending soldiers *back* to retrieve missing kit, it's to grab anything and everything useful for the mission (namely, ammo, mags, belts, better weapons, anything that counts as a "force-multiplier" [which they pretty much did, meaning the survivoring (ten?) soldiers are likely lugging their own personal radios and GPS by now, and still retaining their full platoon's allotment of machine-guns and C-mags]) before they GTFO of the killzone. The entire 'bug-out bag' principle.And like a bug-out bag, it's more a list of priorities of things you want to keep with you. You can usually survive without it, maybe even get a replacement, but the loss of a man sucks a big one, loss of a man and all his shit is a pretty catastophic loss in some cases. As I said, shit sometimes REALLY gets that bad, in which the grunts have to pray for a quick resupply/evac, .

Back with the shitty phone. Also on another note: the "rage post" was spastic.
The comic was funny and i know what a bullet can do, but thats like c'mon, anti-clichey?
Your post made me understand, that every thing my characrer finds... or kills must have a backstory.
I will think of it later today... If Sheldon gives me green light, i will continue the RP like i have by now. If not i will edit the fourth post to make it less retarded. And about the movie i might watch it later as right is now not the best time to do so.

I don't know why but I see a bat shit crazy moment happening on the highway, I hope to god not more people turn up XD Clover will start shooting everything, she is more dangerous than the others who are simply trying to figure out if their is a possibility of trust, A teen waving a gun at everything don't help but I like her :P It's the men the Katrina don't fully trust funnily enough, Sadly she over reacted expecting on of the men to grab her lol.

So they run around in forest camo when manning cities, then?
He started off at the border of LA.
One year later he is in washington state.

California and Washington ain't that far away.

Captain Shelton said I'd like to see them CLEANING their weapons.

Hmm.. Desmond actually did do this with the Beretta ;) Cleaned and dis/re-assembled the pistol while contemplating life in a lawyerly way. I did so much damn research for those 30 second descriptions lol, even bought an app that simulated the actually disassembling

@Mr. Ozias For a post featuring Clover and Carter without any insight from me, that wasn't bad at all lol. Nice job.

I think at the end of Nero's explanation though, she would have said something along the lines of... "That's stupid." :P But it would have hit home all the same.

wait did I miss something in his post? *goes back to read it*

Lol. Love it. So, gotta love all the drama so far :p Still kinda want Clover to blow someones' head off though XD

Phew I was hoping I had captured them both good enough to do that post, from the last role play and this one I was pretty sure I could make a small flash back that was at least accurate to their personalities.

There were just so many good characters to have mine bump into. I chose Jack though almost wish I'd gone with Nero...Gr...I can't be everywhere at once -_- Well hopefully I get the chance to have my characters interact with everyones. I feel bad for Jack though. Claire is almost as untrusting as Clover, she's just not going to point a gun in their face and tell them that without trying to give them a chance first, though that may be due tot he fact that she doesn't have a gun :p

Well... um... ah.... i think i have an idea why would the A.R. (Army Rangers) drive there and why it could crash... VX! The nerve gas... We all know USA supposedly "Destroyed" all of the chemical weapons, yet have been using in many instances... Everybody has chemical weapons, we just don't know it. As i said the crash should have happenned around a month ago.
It was in Fort Lewis where 2 N.S.N. (No Specific Name) 2nd. Batalion Ranger Regiments were tasked to transport some of the VX (that was stored there for "safe keeping" post-outbreak) to specified location to be used, to find out if using such gasses would affect the dead. They were supposed to give it to another group of Spec Ops that were using stealt chopper. 4 canisters of the VX were put in the back of a HumVee M1035. As they left they were dead men, about to die the worst death imaginable.
*Time skip*
While driving on *I don't even know what name that half-island had* they bumped on a rock (YES, ANTI-CLIMACTIC) and damaged one of the canisters. It took 30 micrograms (Lincolns eye in the penny) to poison them.
*Time skip*
As they gave those canisters away, they felt naseous. They went in the HumVee and started driving back as they ran into a zombie horde. The driver turned left and 2 seconds later had convulsions, making him crash into the guard rail, breaking the wheel strut. The driver hit his head in the window, losing counciones. Couple of seconds later the passager mistook that as death and quickly killed the driver, as he reached for his rifle he noticed that it had fell behind the seats. He reached for the drivers SCAR-H, but had also had convulsion and was dragged out by the walkers and bit. Any way he died both by VX and bites. (in agony) Now he is roaming the forest.
Nother' thingy you might brag about:
Why only two, because of 2 things:
*Loss of more than 2 lives is unthinkable.
*An convoy would make for an easy target.
Anyhow Sheldon probably won't allow any of this and i will probably have to modify my fourth IC post... (This was me at my laziest) Anyway, cheers!

@KOKO You really want to keep those guns lol.

@Ciphra Don't worry lol. You're two characters are one of the few I'm interested in following (as in I enjoy reading the posts) so I'm sure they'll run into Clover and Co. soon. They'll have an interesting dynamic with the sibling relationship being compared to a "father and daughter" relationship.

Ehhh.... I just don't want to edit my post. The guns... I bet 5 bucks they won't last 6 posts... I don't want to keep the same ones all the time (exept Five-seveN), as soon as they run out of ammo. I will just get rid of them.

I feel like Carter and Chris would shake hands while slightly suspicious of each other while Clover and Claire would just glare at each other from behind their respected partner XD

I know for certain that once they trust each other, Clover will be very interested Claire's knives. She'll probably try and get Claire to teach her how to throw them.

:D And then they'll form a sisterly bond.
