So I saw a few people using a snazzy format for intros so i figured i'd do a really cool one too. I was referred by Zeta Crossfire.
Who Am I? (Halo and Clans)
My name is Noah and my gamertag is Nightshayde107. I also go by Ven or Venshayde. I started playing Halo halo when I was 10 years old but did not get xbox live until 2006, my sophomore year of High School. I joined a Halo clan based off of ODST's called the 305th ODST Battalion. I enlisted with a few good friends I still have today including Zeta Crossfire, UNSC Dragonfire, Fith Dawn, Sergeant Conley, Braindeadpunk, and a few others.
Unfortunately the leadership of the 305th ODST split not long after I joined. The group of guys I followed became the 83rd ODST Battalion. The 83rd was part of the larger Clan of Anstice Brigade. We were a militaristic style clan that used USMC rankings (Spartans were Navy). Under Anstice Brigade was the 83rd ODST, the 101st ODST, and the elite Spartan IV-Razgriz Company. It was an awesome run and I'll never forget the friendships I made at my 7 years there.
305th ODST Battalion (Enlisted)
83rd ODST Battalion (Helped Form)
Anstice Brigade (What the 83rd became)
---->105th ODST Battalion (Battalion XO)
---->Spartan III (Team 1 Leader)
In my time with this awesome community I worked my way up the ranks as a private to squad leader, platoon leader, and eventually Company XO of the entire 83rd ODST. The 83rd eventually had its name changed to the 105th. As the clan became more consolidated and inactive members rose, I was given the job of starting an "A-team" within the clan other than the Spartan IV's. This was the Spartan III team. However it never grew beyond one squad before most of it fell apart.
Where Did I Go? (Real Life)
2006-2009: I started my Halo career at this time and was in High School.
2009-2013: Around the time Halo Reach came out I was still active in my clan and a sophomore at the University of St. Thomas in Minneapolis. When Halo 4 came out I played less and less with my former clan mates and got together with them whenever I could but life took most of them other places. I recently Graduated with a Psychology degree.
2013-Now: I've since graduated from college with my bachelors degree in Psychology and am pursuing an Officer's Commission through the Marine Corps Officer program. I am trying fly either jets or helicopters and this fall I have a very good chance of being selected and contracted. If all goes well I will be going to Officers Candidate School for three months from October to the end of the year.
Hopes for FCwars?:
My friend Zeta pushed and pushed me to come here since he said it was so much fun participating in the FC Wars that I just had to come check it out. I've had the pleasure of playing with some of you already and I am impressed by your teamwork when everyone is playing seriously. Communication is excellent, jobs and objectives are very well executed. I feel like I fit right in when i'm given an random assignment.
I know I still have a lot to learn as far as how the wars work and which side to choose (Leaning Red by the way, someone try to convince me!)
I look forward tou playing with you and making some new friends!
Respectfully
