Well, hello there! You don't know me yet, but we'll soon be best of friends. I am Ninjatheory/Kristallnachte! I used to do PR work for Halo: Homefront but after a rather long Hiatus, I'm back and this time with the HSI team! The plan is for me to bring a little bit of an extra spark to these updates that may have been missing before.
Fly, Little Birdy, Fly!
Now, Ringleader, the leader of the HSI team, gave me a small batch of content for this update, most likely as a test or something. He wants me to write an update about some cool new engine effects for the Frigate, and show off a piece of concept art, and then show him so he can approve it. I, being who I am, don't care, so I'll do what he asks, and then go off on a wild tangent! Enjoy!!!
I'm not sure why RL sent me 4 pictures of the Frigates rear end, but then I realized all the frigates beauty rests there, much like Spanish girls!

The above depicts what was labeled as a 'Covie DD'. For those unfamiliar with Naval designations, that means its a Destroyer. Destroyer of what? I'm not sure, but I hope its the Destroyer of Unicorns. The mix of Whale and Shark definitely comes across as hatred of unicorns.
Blood and Guts
In my quest to get to know our fanbase more, I'm going to present some information about myself. I'm a United States Marine stationed overseas. My job in the Corps is to fix Humvees and other large trucks. Due to this, I can never promise any regular schedule for updates, and if you suddenly never hear from me for a long time, I'm in Afghanistan or we're at war with Korea, both of which are good things!
Now its your turn! What was your first/most memorable experience with the Halo Franchise? (+1 internetz if its Halo 1)
To make this update longer, here's a Giraffe eating an apple:
Or...trying to anyway...
Until next time, this is Ninjatheory signing off!
Kill Bodies!
Best update I've seen in a long time. :)
Thanks for serving our country dude epic update
Oh lawdy, NT's doing updates now?
oh lawdy yes
I thought this had something to do with actual birds. Because of the robin picture.
I am dissapoint.
(Although this looks rather good, too.)
What happens to the mod if you are KIA?
the world may never know
Best of luck and all, you should like, get a comrade to release all the stuff as open source if you like, asploode
Well, NT is only doing the updates. RL's making the actual content.
Oorah!
That Covenant ship looks like the Destiny Acension from Mass Effect.
The Destiny Ascension shares far more relation to a Sun fish than this particular covenant design.
Well. Seeing the badass work you're doing with this mod and the ships. I gotta say, if you hear whistling, get the **** down. I've waited a long time for a kickass Halo MOD for Homeworld2 and it shall not be thwarted by your untimely death. So stay safe, Marine. Keep up the good work, dude.
P.S. U.N.S.C. > U.S.M.C. Just sayin'.
