    As you said some of the main characters have their own charm BUT this whole story seems to be about Max. Real stretch to see the story continue in the setting presented without him. Why are you fixated on death of the "good guys"? I think many of us would rather see destruction of the bad guys BUT we don't have your imagination.

    don't you dare

    I second that.

    Yeah, there will be some core members dieing, but that is a few chapters off, first christmas playtime, then Hans, then we lose someone I think, just not sure who...have some ideas but I have to be careful because each of the inner circle brings something to the story and if I pick the wrong one it will change the whole feeling of the story.

    If you have decided on death then so be it. Weren't there like 30+ people brought in? May one or some of them? Hate to see one of the mains eliminated; you've done too good a job in getting us attached to them.

    .

    Thank you for not putting on a BAD cliffhanger - just anticipation of good things to come. Of course the teaser of Russian involvement in their welcoming party has yet to be devolved into.

    Here I sit broken hearted,

    Tried to shit but only farted,

    Wasted a dime, oh what the hell,

    At least I can sit here and enjoy the smell!

    Those old enough to remember pay toilets, please explain the dime part to the youngsters :)

    Some were a nickle and later some were a quarter.

    Some things are unexplainable to some of the younger generations.

    That was my thought also that they gave him a gun with an empty clip, Another aspect I was thinking is Hans believe so much in God that after seeing so much killing by Max, he feels it is his duty to eliminated him in the name of God.

    That sounds like another "religion" but they don't have churches just mosques.

    By the way I read that last part where "Alice had insisted that he remain with the aircraft since he didn’t have armor, although he was armed." I think they gave it to him.

    He did say Hans looked at the war spider before pulling the trigger. They are extremely good shots. Shoot the bullet out of the air? May is in combat mode - she MIGHT take exception to Max being a target.

    Or They gave him a gun but no ammo? Not sure where Alice is on trust. Of course the twins are still there AND armed. Hans goose is not only cooked but well done. Only question is - when does the meal start.

    Sniper014 I think you may have come up with the proper name for him. I wonder if the Hans is the brains behind this. It would seem that the "Mr Big" was at the funeral. Nothing to indicate that he was rhere. Where did he get the pistol?

    Yeah, not really happy with the chapter either, it just doesn't seem to flow; I actually deleted the whole first attempt. But I struggled with it for so long and it just seemed to get worse! Figured it was time to just take my lumps and move on.

    The tittle is actually supposed to give you a hint at the next few chapters, an attempt a foreshadowing ;)

    I think I tried to pack too much into this chapter, I had a lot of good ideas that I should have developed more and maybe that would have made it less choppy. I think ythis should have been spread out over two or three chapters...live and learn

    Still a good chapter, in my opinion. Many possibilities. You can develop the threads in future posts. The only problem I see is that it will usually take too long to do that in one chapter and "the natives get restless"!. NOW if sped your fingers up and could give us

    30 thousand or more words in less than a week that would be AWESOME !

    no the older rifles were bolt action. But the 50 caliber berreta and the FAL rifles are semi automatic. That way we do not lose target sighting chambering the next round. When you are sighting a target over a mile away you do not want to lose it having to chamber the next round. Remember his dad was making weapons for the government. Four rifles with 10 rounds per mag is 40 rounds going down range at a time. And if they are smart they would stagger their shots so that they are not all loading at the same time. And if they carry ten mags each that is 400 rounds going down range. Good blood bath and lots of caskets needed.

    Thanks ! Of course I'm old school and not necessarily up to day on modern advances.

    The other consideration is that, from the way I read the story, the range is probably less than 100 yards.

    One other item the local druggies are affiliated with a larger gang in another city. So many directions this could go.

    Good chapter... not your best, but, still good. Emma won't be extatic over Tali getting shot, but, I'll love to see where things go with the new sheriff. I have a feeling he's going to be as stupid as the old one and keep pressing Max to where there's total devastation.... Here come's the BOOM!!! they're gonna need it, some people you just can't teach, always gotta be the hard way.

    Still waiting patiently for the next in NorthStar too, but, clown cars don't give you much room to type in especially when you're stuck driving them. Glad to have you back tho.

    I think you have a point. He did offer to turn it into a bloodbath now. But the sheriff did say he would pass the message on. Maybe

    to one of the attendees, who may decide to call it a bluff. That could make it very interesting and more than a little scary. Don't know what Max is carrying. Only 4 snipers and probably 30 plus potential targets. Most sniper rifles are bolt not semi.

    Guess we will just have to wait until Mags decides to give another dose of nerve medicine.

    Sorry the above post was mine. Thought I was signed in but found out connection on tablet was lost and closed me out including logging me off the site. I thought I had it set up to be logged on at all times. Will have to fix that again.

    Having problems with my tablet also. Screen too small ond typing with a stylus is a PAIN. Mostly using a laptop with a full keyboard.

    I agree with you post that generated this one.

    Almost another cliffhanger. Glad you kept going after one of the twins got hit. Going to the funeral from that had me wondering.

    Obviously someone is running the sheriff's office. "I'ii pass the message on". Suspect they will need more coffins: YEAH.

    Love the twins in Kevlar. :yahoo:

    Interesting to see what you will do with the ranch situation. Enjoy your time "off the grid". "We" will start hounding you in a week.

    What about the priest from the pod? Maybe the sheriff gets found out and decides to eat a bullet instead of spending time in his own jail? Other possibility one of the rescues that hasn't been doing so well and the adoptive parents don't get the kid back to Max in time for the pod to work. BUT i'm sure you have a much more convoluted scenario up your sleeve.
