Project Phoenix: Story Bits

[Killzig]

<strong>[Game -> Update]</strong>

Those fanciful lads working on <a href="/forums/viewforum.php?f=31">Project Phoenix</a> have posted a short story to give you a small taste of the world they're working in and the characters that inhabit it.
<br><blockquote><em>
<br>Daniel North exhaled with some effort and put the barbell down on its cradle. Not once in the forty years since he entered the service had he missed his morning workout, from rank recruit, to Sergeant in the Army Corps of Engineers, on thru College, marriage, two kids and one end of the world. “3 sets 10 reps a set, last set at 200 pounds, not bad for an old man,� he muttered to no one in particular. It was a habit the 58-year-old engineer turned farmer, turned teacher had fallen into during the last three years; Living in almost total seclusion for most of the time had that effect on a person used to enjoy affable conversation. Oh, he was by no means a hermit, regardless of what his friends and students may say, he just didn’t feel comfortable around people in social settings anymore, not since Karen… sitting on the weight bench, Daniel shook his head in self-admonition for allowing himself to almost start wallowing. </blockquote></em>

In Hammer's world, everyone would be in the infantery, while you fight a noble battle against freedom-hating... uhh... aliens? Wow, that's just like Starship Troopers, only the bugs speak in arabic.

Hammer with all due respect, he is too smart to be a Marine...He likes building things not blowing them up. For some reason I think that you and him would probably get along.
