Once again, you fail to provide Grace's location bar "behind chief." She could literally be right behind Chief, standing in the open behind him, or with back to a pillar watching the door. You are not providing evidence for any of these.
I don't have the book with me, and I think I made it clear as heck what I wanted with my last post, but you don't understand or choose not to deliver :/.
I just checked it, doesn't get any more specific than what Arsenal listed. All it basically says is that Grace was at the back of the group when the Brutes attacked and nothing more :/
Okay, thanks for checking at least. I remembered something about how she was roughly in the middle of the doorway or something.
At least you said that was nearly all that was to the scene +_+.
Thanks for checking? I GAVE you the scene. ugh
Also, maybe I should highlight this part of the quote that I just posted.
Halo: First Strike pg 310
Three explosions detonated behind THEM. Grace's biosign alarm shrilled and flashed on John's heads-up display.
/quote
THEM being Master Chief, Fred, and Will. What are you not understanding? THEM, being plural, most definately does not mean only behind Chief. You put out what you remembered (Which was wrong), while I was quoting the book directly, yet you claim that I was not providing proof? I'm really getting sick of this, I mean honestly.
Also, what does her location matter? I am fighting your claims (A) Master Chief has a knack for getting teammates killed (B) Master Chief's weakness is H2H and (C) master Chief has a lack of situational awareness.
(A) Grace's death has nothing to do with Master Chief getting her killed. He proceeded with caution, actually, almost in the exact manner that you said would've saved her life. It was rather that she was behind them, and the Brutes preforming the ambush shot her first. EXPLAIN to me how this is Master Chief's fault.
(B)All the examples commonly used, bar one, Master Chief won against long odds. If anything, those examples show that he has plenty of H2H skills.
(C)He saw that it would be a good place for an ambush, proceeded with great caution (Also with no choice, as Covenant were closing in behind him, i have the quote if you want it), and when he did see the contact on his motion sensor, he ordered his team to halt, and was going to use a frag to flush out the ambush, until he was bum-rushed by the Brute. EXPLAIN to me how this is a lack of situational awareness.
