RT: Orders from the Top
You may have noticed the slight artistic difference in today’s comic. Luke’s computer is on the fritz so he had to draw this in MS Paint.
And yes, this comic is true. Thanks for all the booze guys!

Freelance Escape
Now this is dedication – a LEGO fan designed a set to mimic the chase scene in the Red vs Blue Season 9 trailer… with LEGOs. Nice!(Louis Wu 23:05:08 UTC)

News from Elsewhere Sunday (Part 3)
Hitmonchan107, after promising he was done for a while, came back this afternoon for ANOTHER round of Halo links. While I was out enjoying myself in Community BTB, he was sweating away in a room full of small children – wait, that’s not right. Anyway, check out his finds.- Slashprofilms tried to create a Jaws parody in the Reach engine. They ran into some problems.
- A gamesite editor is giving away a copy of Dr. Halsey’s journal on Twitter – swing by if you’d like to get in on this.
- An article that seems to have been written several months ago showed up on X360 Magazine’s website – they’ve come up with alternative punishments for Reach cheaters.
- He found a couple of nice montages – Arkanum and Thrust’s Snipetality-edited trailer, and Just Mad’s “I’m Still Just Mad 2” (it’s old, but we’ve never mentioned it). Update: Oops, that was I’m Still Just Mad (the first one). The second one is here. Thanks, HMC.
There’s quite a bit more; I only picked the highlights. Go look!(Louis Wu 22:59:30 UTC)

News from Elsewhere Sunday (Part 2)
Summary Two (from Halo Waypoint):- bs angel has resurrected her ‘Friday Caption Fun’ feature on Halo Waypoint – this week’s shot gives you a chance to caption a gentle Covenant interlude.
- supman098 built a cool stand for his Reach action figures – check it out.
- If you don’t have the money for full Mega Bloks Halo sets, you can make do (pretty well, even) with just some basic pieces.
- What would Arby and the Chief look like if they worked for the Men in Black? jameson9101322 might know…
- Okay, there are times when you need to GET OUT OF THE CAR.
- The Waypoint crew has put together a feature on the Covenant Concussion Rifle – plenty of pics, some nice stats. Give it a read!
- Grifball: Double Agent 3 went live yesterday – check out the antics of Team Slipspace!
There’s plenty more – go explore!(Louis Wu 16:32:41 UTC)

News from Elsewhere Sunday (Part 1)
Summary One (from NeoGAF’s Hitmonchan107):- Wezi82 built a Halo/Minecraft mashup – pretty cute!
- EuphorianFilms released Area 616 – the color filters go a long way to making this feel a bit more serious than the typical Halo machinima.
- Sanity Not Included has a Reach segment in its latest episode. Don’t watch the rest of the video at work. Armor Lock haters will not appreciate this. (There’s a followup at the end.)
- All-Ways Wireless tweeted about a Reach tournament on April 30 in Salt Lake City, UT. (Hitmonchan was kind enough to provide a Google Maps link.)
Many thanks to Hitmonchan107 for his news coverage all week!(Louis Wu 16:32:07 UTC)

And My Gamer Connections is offering a chance to play Reach with MLG Pro Ghostayame. Go soak it in!(Louis Wu 21:00:48 UTC)
