This very well written, although their are the standard spelling/grammar errors occasionally, but I like how this is a realistic approach by the UNSC and Humanity, keep up the good work.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this story continue.

Interesting first chapter. There's already a good amount of mystery.

Impressive build up.
Will the UNSC show it's true strength at Shanxi (UNSC Infinity) or will the Arbiter's CSO-Supercarriers put the Citadel in its place. After denying to join the Citadel.

what about my story, it doesn't follow what you said. I checked, you don't follow it, is something wrong with it? 'We need a Miracle' is the title. Go check it out, humanity is not nice, when they show up.

Interesting idea. When in the halo timeline does this take place?

Interesting start. I'm going to look forward to see where you go with this.

What are you going to do with the Covenant. I always wanted to see a fic where the UNSC turn all or some races into client rases. Not equals mind you but true clients of the UNSC , for instance the Elites in a civil war loose control of a few Grunt breeding colonies and either ONI or the UNSC takes control. Or something like that. Basically you should not have a fully functional covenant sepertist goverment were all races are equal. Grunts were basically slave and the Jakels aren't trusted. For any help with this loke fore another cross over of this category called The Three Enpires for help with this it gives more details than I can . Hope you continue with this.

cant wait for more!
