Not a problem. I'm still reviewing and converting the files that I have. It's taking me some time, but I'll have at least a portion of the update done at some point late tonight.
Additonally, the use of the E-6, and higher ranks might be high in a normal unit, or squad; but as this is not standard unit or squad, operating out of any Company, of any Battalion, of any Regiment, or Division; but rather a specially selected group of Marines who've proven their merit, and been brought together, it really isn't. This isn't a traditional military unit by any means.
Weapons that were used during the events of Halo 4, while listed as "Post-War" in era, likely saw use prior to the end of the Human-Covenant war. The development of a new weapon can last a decade or more sometimes, so it isn't crazy to think that these weapons would be available on a limited basis, especially to members of a Special Operations Detachment of Marines, who mostly will be involved with mission assigned by the Office of Naval Intelligence. That's why I am willing to accept Halo 4 weaponry, at least in terms of the weapons that are simply re-dresses or updates to already existing weaponry; IE, the Asault Rifle, the Pistol, the Battle Rifle etc. etc. etc. The only weapon I didn't include as an option was the Rail Gun from Halo 4, as I see that as a brand new tech of weapon. It hasn't appeared in any previous Halo games, therefore it is probably a Post-War weapon exclusively.

As far as the terminology of Fireteam, indeed it is a term used for a small 4-5 man group. I will probably adjust that, seeing as each squad is roughly three times that in size.
Alright... well, I experienced a few issues when I went to put up the OOC, the HTML coding I had been using was out of date for the new forums. I've been working on updating it, but it's taking a while to go through and re-write the coding. I've posted a portion of the OOC thread up for people to start checking out, and I'll hopefully finish it later on tonight after I get back from work. As for now, It's 5:15AM, and I have to be at work in five hours, so I'm gonna call it a night, and catch some sleep. Sorry for the delay, but trust me when I say that I'm working as hard as as fast as I can.

For now you can head on over, and you can get a preliminary idea of the character creation process, maybe even enough of an idea for you to get started on it.

There is no required post order, no. The only thing you need to be aware of is that in the event that you haven't replied IC in a while, either myself, or Nallore will dictate what your character does, just to keep said character in the action and involved for when you return. Our dictations will be minor, without having and major lasting impact in your character, and will be done the best of our abilities. A good example would be if the Fireteam were moving into a location, and everyone but your character had been posted for; myself or Nallore would simply make a little note in one of our posts that your character followed suit. This is so that if you're busy, or if you're away, you don't need your character to miss out on things, and when you come back, you'll be able to just hop right back into control.

And yes, all weapons of the Halo Universe that were in use up the the year 2550, will be available to your characters. However, your characters will be limited to the number of weapons your character can carry, just as in the Halo Games. Generally One primary weapon, and one secondary.
Happy to see more people interested in this RP, you're all welcomed.

Medium Casual is about the level of writing I'd expect from players. I'll probably be writing much longer, more detailed, and more drawn out responses, but that's what I consider to be my responsibility as GM. Nallore will be assisting me in writing for the number of NPCs that will exists, as well as helping me cover players who are unresponsive, or away for a period of time. We'll do the best we can to portray player characters as faithfully as possible.

As far as Covenant Characters, this is really an RP focused on ODSTs, and humanity's side of the conflict. There may be opportunities down the line for you to have an alternate character that is a member of the Covenant, though they would play a minor role at best. For now, consider your primary characters to be members of the ODST Fireteam being sent to Omega Titanius.

I'm just about to head into work. I'll be back home tonight around 11PM EST, and will be posting the OOC thread with all of the information you'll need to create your characters.

Until then, if you have any other questions feel free to PM or ask Nallore here, and she'll fill you in as best she can.

Thanks for all of your interest!
I'm working on the OOC thread where you'll all be able to begin creating your characters. It should be up by sometime today.

Additionally there is still plenty of room for others to join up with this RP, so if you're interested, just post so here, or in the OOC when it's linked at some point later today.
