Hey, y'all. As the title suggests, this story is based around Captain MacMillan, who is "famous" for his role in Call of Duty 4. It is, however, largely focused on the Halo universe as well. This fan-fiction is going to be written by both myself and Uberdawg, who will likely have the first chapter up tonight. This prologue is simply a backstory for MacMillan. 'tis here:
[b]The Misadventures of Captain MacMillan[/b]
[i]Prologue[/i]
Who is Captain MacMillan? Where did he come from? How did his mere existence lead two Xbox Live gamers to write a piece of literature based around him? Those first two will be answered as we progress through this prologue. That third one- well, it’s not like we really had a choice. It’s Captain MacMillan!
Rumour once had it that MacMillan descended from Hercules (as were the Spartans of the Battle of Thermopylae, coincidentally). Others speculated that the man just simply created himself. However, after careful, scientific deduction, it has been proven that Captain MacMillan originated from radiated dog feces. And that does not make him any less human than the rest of us. Probably more so, come to think of it.
During his early years (if that's what you want to call them), MacMillan was raised by a pack of wolves within the abandoned city of Chernobyl. With their expertise, he became stealthy, cunning, and learned not only how to speak with a Scottish accent, but also how to wield an M21.
MacMillan loved his family. Every night, he would bring home the rabbits that he had hunted that afternoon, just to see the look on their faces (which, being wolves, was almost always the same). One morning, however, while MacMillan was fetching breakfast for his family, the entire pack was murdered by a boy and his father (why they were in Chernobyl to begin with is beyond me). It was but a mere two minutes later when they both heard the phrase, "Oi, suzy!" Neither the condition nor the whereabouts of these two are known.
MacMillan currently serves as an SAS (Special Air Service) officer.

do you know how to mod maps? if you do, then it would be easy to put Johnson in. WAIT, IF, according to the story so far, the arbitor HASNT got the arbitor armor form the Prophets, (mainly becuase hes fighting them and hasnt been MADE the arbitor), yet, so, will you try to play him as him with armor, or with out [Edited on 06.14.2008 1:41 AM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Fishie1 Will the Machinima be based off of this story? That may be tricky to get MacMillan in there, fighting Johnson :D Whatever, it will be great no matter what, I'm guessing.[/quote]Yeah, it'll be based off of this fan-fic. Obviously, there'll be a couple of parts of [i]this[/i] story that'll have to be tweaked for the machinima, though I have been thinking of a creative way to include Johnson. ;) [Edited on 06.12.2008 2:49 PM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Uberdawg Yeah, guys, about that chapter on Saturday... likely not going to happen. I'll either post it tomorrow (Thursday) or Sunday some time, most likely Sunday. I'm hitting the coast for some unspecified portion of the weekend to pick up hawt chix. [/quote]! =O Anyway, we'll probably start filming the machinima within the next week or so. The first episode of the series will likely be posted around the same time as the fan-fic's [i]final[/i] chapter.

"Pooch doesn't look too friendly." = Epic Win. "Oi, Suzy!" = Epic Win. Those are his best quotes :-D

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] davo518 gaz is better[/quote] you know darn well (if you have played cod4) that macmillan is pure win (part hiding under trucks = best thing ever and can't forget how he says 'tango down' he is win period)

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] GoW I Lord Hood I'd love to see some completely random character that everyone's forgot about kill the Chief.[/quote] The suicidal Marine from the 343 Guilty Spark level in the Original Halo. He could be all "Thats for not helping my mental condition!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Yeah, guys, about that chapter on Saturday... likely not going to happen. I'll either post it tomorrow (Thursday) or Sunday some time, most likely Sunday. I'm hitting the coast for some unspecified portion of the weekend to pick up hawt chix. Also, folks, go download the Battlefield: Bad Company demo. It's freakin' sweet, even though it actually caused me to do the most cheap, no-sportsmanship thing I have done in recent memory: I sat in a bush beside the road with a rocket launcher, then jumped out every time a tank passed by me and I blew it up from behind. I mean, you do that once or twice and it's not so bad, but I did it like half a dozen times before I really realized how lame that is. Oh, and here's a MacMillan joke to tide y'all over: A wise man once said that disasters teach us humility. This, however, is false: Captain MacMillan teaches us humility.

I want to see the Arbiter dispose of Chief the same way he did cortana. =)

I'd love to see some completely random character that everyone's forgot about kill the Chief.
