1* Just before the deployment for SLENDER SCALPEL, a turian Corporal in the 52nd Recon Legion develops a cough and is told to sit out the mission. He goes, "Fuck that", and jumps onto a shuttle at the last minute, so that he can go to war with his buddies... and finds out he got on the wrong shuttle.
2* How do krogan and turian troops at Firebase Arterius pass the time? Come up with even more ridiculous and inventive ways of [[StuffBlowingUp blowing up Reapers.]] Let the turians play with the Graal spike thrower shotguns; The turians get a kick at how gruesome it is on its targets, the krogan get a kick out of watching the turians try to handle the recoil and aim leading. Or maybe roll useless fuel barrels down the hill, watching it squish hapless husks, and then [[ExplodingBarrels shoot the barrel]] at the bottom. Or maybe take a brace of grenades, set them to proximity fuse, and roll them down the hill...
3* Urdnot Bakar, a krogan commando, [[DivingSave saves]] Maximus Benessius from getting hit with a Thanix Cannon, though he gets [[ConvectionSchmonvection his hump]] [[AvertedTrope burned off]] in the process. As he's being medevaced, he does his best to cuss at and chew out Maximus for being a dumbass. Years later, Bakar is a cadet at Cipritine Hill Services Academy, with the goal of taking part in the Krogan military reformation... and his drill instructor is Maximus.
4* Patrus Castellus, XO of the carrier ''Example'', takes it upon himself to visit the family of [[spoiler: Captain Irenna Ixius, who has been declared dead after a DyingMomentOfAwesome, to inform them personally that she had been declared KIA, after 3 years of being declared MIA. Except that the person greeting him at the door is '''[[ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated Captain Ixius herself]]''', who tells him she didn't get the memo.]]
