Warthogs and mongooses: Dukes of Halo!
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Seamus: Hey and were back with another installment of why humanity one the war! So read you morons!
Rolo'mono: Seamus stop randomly insulting people.
Seamus: Up your squid boy!
Rolo'mono: Of forget it.
Ranger24: Today we're going to be talking about human vehicles. So first up is the mongoose, take it away Rolo'mono.
Rolo'mono: Right. The mongoose was revealed in Halo 3 as the human answer to the ghost and brute chopper, which looks liket he bastard offspring of the ghost and the dumpster behind my apartment.
Seamus: Yeah turns out the damn thing was supposed to be a gift to the humans before the war started but the brutes decided to repurpose it.
Kanton: As in put 30 mm cannons on it?
Seamus: Yeah.
Fapad: Can I get you guys anything?
Seamus: A beer here.
Kanton: Coke.
Rolo'mono: Captian Morgan rum.
Everyone looked at him as though he was crazy.
Rolo'mono: What? I like the hard stuff.
Fapad: On it!
Fapad ran off to get the drinks.
Rolo'mono: Okay so the mongoose was put into halo 3 as the human equivlent of the ghost. The Mongoose is tha fastest non-air non-booster vehicle and has the all terrain capabilties of the warthog.
Seamus: A little less so though.
Rolo'mono: The mongoose's rear standing position makes it valuable in anti vehicle warfare. If combined with a rocket launcher it can be highly effective in destroying slower and heavier vehicles.
Seamus: Like half the covenant's armored forces.
Rolo'mono: Oh shut up.
Kanton: Can we move on please?
Rolo'mono: Right, next on our list of vehicles is the every present M12 LRV, otherwise known as the warthog.
Seamus: Yeah I like Puma better.
Rolo'mono: Oh can it!
Kanton: Guys don't start another mid chapter fight!
Rolo'mono: The warthog is possibly the most commonly found vehicle in every installment of the Halo franchise and is mentioned or used in all of the halo novels.
Seamus: Yeah because they couldn't think of what else to give humans apart from a tank.
Rolo'mono: The warthog comes in three major variations. First is the LAAG model. This model comes equiped with a light thirty millimeter machine gun perfect for handleing light armor, infantry, brute babies, Micheal Jackson, the democrats, and air craft such as the banshee.
Seamus: Yeah because really you can just kick back and relax on the Machine gun... Unless theres a sniper in the area. Then you'd better hope you have a good driver!
Switch scene!
A couple of grunts fire on a warthog which runs them over! Suddenly sniper fire hits the hood!
Marine 1: SHIT! THAT PAINTS CUSTOM!
Marine 2: Dude! Watch the road!
The Warthog runs over even more covenant soldiers.
Marine 2: You know what? Never mind.
Back to the studio...
Rolo'mono: The next model of warthog is the Gauss warthog. This warthog is equiped with a small version of a MAC gun used on UNSC warships. The Gauss cannon is used primarily against light armor and heavy infantry.
Seamus: Yeah because trying to hit a grunt with it is damned hard, even when the bunch up..
Kanton: Which is almost always.
Rolo'mono: Both of these said models have seating for three which leaves the shot gun seat open for anyone to use what ever weapon they want.
Seamus: Like a shot gun.
Kanton: Or a rocket launcher!
Seamus: Thats gay.
Kanton: Frak you!
Rolo'mono: Hey where's that grunt with our drinks?
Seamus: Yeah! He's like a bad house elf!
Everyone stared at him for a moment.
Seamus: What?
Kanton: I really don't think a Harry Potter reference is a good idea in a halo story.
Rolo'mono: Yeah I hardly see a connection.
Fapad: Here are you're drinks!
Fapad can be seen holding a tray of drinks.
Kanton: Thanks.
Semaus takes his beer and uncorcks it. He takes one sip then throws the bottle against a wal!
Seamus: What the hell! Why is my beer warm!
Fapad: Me sorry!
Fapad hands Kanton and Rolo'mono their drinks then begins hitting himself with the tray!
Fapad: BAD FAPAD! BAD FAPAD!
Kanton: What the hell?
Rolo'mono: Yeah let's just ignore him.
Seamus: Oh come on this is fun to watch.
Kanton: Was that beer even warm?
Seamus: No.
Kanton: You bastard.
Rolo'mono: Okay moving on. The thrid variatin of warthog is the transport warthog. This model lacks the primary weapon attachment which is sacraficed to be used as a troop carrying section.
Kanton: Basicly its like a box on the back.
Rolo'mono: The transport model has seating for six extra marines not counting the driver and the person riding shot gun.
Seamus: With a shot gun.
Kanton: It'd be better with rocket launchers.
Seamus: Frak that.
Rolo'mono: The transport warthog also seems to be used as a medical evac transport for UNSC personal.
Seamus: Well it's got to do something usefull.
Kanton: Yeah like be an anti air platform with a bunch of rocket launchers!
Seamus: Totally noobie.
Rolo'mono: All warthong models come with four inch armor plating, magnetic buffer suspenstion, and three radio stations.
Seamus: All of which are crapy Latino-polka.
Kanton: Sounds nasty.
Rolomono: Warthogs are very durable. Being able to take most small arms fire as well as light armor fire.
Seamus: Right except they can't take a rocket.
Kanton: Seamus rocket's aren't small arms.
Seamus: They are in my book.
Rolo'mono: Their all terrian nature makes it possible for them to gain strategic control of important
Seamus: And that means you can do all sorts of stunts!
Kanton: Our top scientists here examined the durability of a warthog when it landed on a pile of high explosives. The results show you have better chances of surviving such an incident with a warthog than a mongoose, Chopper, Ghost, or Prowler.
Rolo'mono: Yeah the Prowler also looks like the bastard off spring of the specter from halo 2 and the dumpster behind my apartment. The same with most brute weapons only with the human weapons as the one who frakked the dumpster.
Seamus: Another good thing about warthogs is that you can do stunts with them! Dukes of hazard stuff!
Ranger enters.
Ranger24: Hey guys I'm...
Fapad hits himself with the tray for the fifty-first time.
Fapad: Bad Fapad...
Ranger24: HOLLY SHIT!
Rolo'mono: Umm... looks like a good place to stop!
Seamus: Yeah! Next time! Scorpions and elephants: Slow and steady!
Kanton: Read and review!
Ranger24: GUYS!!
Ranger pulls out his sword!
Seamus/Rolo'mono/Kanton: RUN!!
