Basically, what this man says. The hardest part is always putting the effort into getting stared: once you get there it can only get easier.
Anyway, as promised, here's the snip I was talking about. Goose looked it over just to iron out a few kinks. Spoiler for ML: DYRL -The Miracle of Flight-:
It was supposed to be it's own full length story, and indeed I have a few more scenes after this one that are partially completed, but after writing it out I felt I was just rehashing too much of the TE Kamchatka Arc and decided to bin it. I don't think this is as in depth as DarthTabby would have liked, but it's something at least. Good news is that I have an entire story planned for Lilia travelling though these refugee camps in disguise while she was evading the CIA. Hopefully I can get to work on that once I'm done with my other stuff... which might take a while knowing me. |

Ignore him. He's just playing with you.
About battles in the middle east, i do believe there's a story in MLA about a group in Egypt that defends the front line against the BETA. You can check that story to help you.

God is great. Holy war. A Crusade is a bad thing, but a jihad is a truly wondrous thing! Move move. GOD DAMNIT HUSSAM. (Arab soldiers are notoriously incompetent and prone to doing the wrong thing. To get any use out of them, a skilled commander has to micromanage them like a starcraft player. Which is a [problem when you tell them stop and they decide that means drive on.) SULEIMAN YOU FUCKING IDIOT. (Arab soldiers are also idiots, for the most part.) As God wills it. (Arab cultures are notoriously fatalistic. Spend time on range and marksmanship? Bah. Insha-allah, the bullet will hit. Insha-Allah, it was fated that I was shot today. Insha-Allah, it is god's will that we are all incompetent.) Everyone dies. (It's a Muv-Luv story.)

Okay, this might be of your interest then.
In the late 90s, there was a sci-fi novel released in Brazil called "Espada da Galáxia" (Sword of the Galaxy). The main character was a space explorer from a species known as Metalianos (Metalians). Although humanoid, the Metalians evolved from insects, so much of their physiology and mentality actually resembles the likes of bees and ants. Furthermore, Metalians were bio-metallic lifeforms - that is, unlike humans who have bodies composed mostly of water and carbon, they had living bodies that were made up mostly of metal alloys such as silicon, aluminium and titanium. Hopefully this can serve as a reference for you. I don't know if there is any material about it in English, but maybe you might find something after some research.
