Talk:Shane Schofield
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
like many other authors, Reily refers the HK MP5/10 as an MP10, which is incorrect. See http://www.hkpro.com/MP5-10.htm for more info.
I assume he wore standard fatiuges on Hell Island, which would be MARPAT. --Commander gree 22:20, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
"He uses a [HK 9mm] like the one Lara Croft uses."
Source? Lara Croft in the movies uses a .45 USP Match pistol (or so it is called in the script in reality the actor uses a 9mm calibre version), not the sort of weapon a Delta Boy would lug around. All the pistol is referred to in the book as is "H&K 9mm". This could be anything from a P9 to a USP Compact.
The Aloysius Knight section required a minor change, he rescued the daughter of the Russian Defense Minister, not the Russian President's Daughter. See the section where Fairfield briefs Shane about Aloysius Knight in the story.Roswell Crash Survivor 00:19, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
"A curiosity is that in his first adventure he is ranked as a Lieutenant - a mistake Reilly freely admits is glossed over in his successive novels." Uh, how is this a mistake? I assumed he was simply promoted following Ice Station. Battle Ape 17:33, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
schofield isn't a captain hes a 1st leiutenant
Having just re-read "Scarecrow" for about the 4th time, Schofield is ranked as Captain in that book and, if I remember correctly, in Area 7 also. He was 1st Leiutenant in Icestation, which is explained somewhere in the first 1/4 of the book. And since I have the book ("Scarecrow")in front of me, the Black Knight actually rescued the daughter of Russia's Deputy President - minus four fingers. :) pg 121 final paragraph Australian Edition, 2003. Sorry, just happen to be a fan... --Polgarahanwi 08:02, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] About the character
it may just be me, but this article seems like a complete info of the series, whereas the opening info details only the character
possibly this page should be split into three: one about schofield, one about the series and one about the supporting characters
it just seems wierd u hav the villians in an article about one man... Iciac 08:27, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
I agree and put the split template up at the top of the page. The Kevin (talk) 18:24, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] there are spoilers in this article
there needs to be a warning at the top of this page that tells readers that plot twists are being revealed.
If there was a template for spoilers I would put it up there, but there isn't one unfortunately. The Kevin (talk) 18:24, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
