    It ends up being a conservation of motion thing. He's already running forward, so it's easiest—and most efficient—to dive forward, under the missile and allow it to land behind and hope the shields deflect the blast.

    Interestingly enough, this actually worked in-game. :)

      In the game, when you evade, all your previous momentum before you evaded is canceled. I hate little things like that. It gets under my skin.

        Picky, picky :p

        But I understood the move when I first saw it ;) I just assumed it was something like how Viper shrugged off the trip mine RC threw in their faces at the start :p

      So, what is it that you want to see, exactly?

        I can't help but feel sorry for you Jim…. Some people are never pleased.

          Meh, I'm unfazed. If you've come here looking for a fight scene every other page, then you're reading the wrong webcomic. I remain unapologetic for that. :)

            I think your current word-to-BOOM! ratio is perfect.

            Well, my mindset is that I write the kind of story that I enjoy reading. If other people enjoy it, too, then so much the better. :)

            no its not that i dont like your idea.
            its really cool.
            but sometimes a sudden action may keep us MORE interested.
            i thing it will make the comic better.

    I read area as arena. Cue Thunderdome jokes.

      In this case, two men really did enter and only one will leave—unless three or four others show up.

    So awesome that you are able to keep them coming Jim :D don't need to fight my addiction/withdrawal problems!

    How'd you get that shot in the third frame? you made it look like he is skidding to a halt…

      Most likely done using evade to roll backwards.

        I thought it was a well timed picture of the Spartan finishing an evade dive forward :p

          February 24, 2011 at 7:50 am | #

          Bingo. ;)

          I'm actually just really glad that the Evade ability is available to the Spartan as well as the Elite. Opens up a lot more visual possibilities.

      Don't be silly. Elites don't speak blargish.

        watch the Red vs Blue episode "Lost in Triangulation". it disagrees with your statement.

      Ah, but Ferial doesn't have a sense of humor. Everyone knows this.
