Description

Terra Proxima, an Epic Choose Your Own Adventure Serial by Rommel

Episode I: First Strike

You are training as an elite soldier at the military academy Tel-Takir. You go by the callsign Sentinel. Soldiers are no longer so much cannon fodder, they are lethal weapons, especially these ones, part of the global peacekeeping force: The United Guns. You have almost graduated from the academy, and are looking forward to tomorrow, when you will be assigned a posting. You have a bad feeling about graduation night though, and you have been trained to trust your instincts. Something is up...

This is the second version of First Strike.

Now THAT...was really, really good. I love the classic style of record sheet and random number table. Makes it feel authentic. The detail and backstory in this piece is absolutely top notch and captured the heart-pounding, dangerous battle side of war as well as the personal side. There's too much to say. Love it Love it Love it Love it Love it.

I think the combat system is superb. The story is really well developed, and I like the charachters.It just needs to be a little longer.

Wow, definatly your best work. However, I do wish there were more pictures that just maps. Also, it could have been better if it would have been longer.

Hi! I realised I'd played the game, but not left comments. I really liked this one. Your writing style is getting better with each story you write, so I look forward to your next one as well :)
