Fire Team Charlie is a machinima series created by Fire Team Charlie Productions, part of a group called Xbox Ottawa. Although their first 4 films revolve around unrelated single movie stories (the first 2 episodes were stunt showcases), by Episode 5 a plotline and the main characters have been introduced, which for the rest of the series was mostly followed. Episode 3 seems unrelated to the plot but is revealed to be a prequel movie in episode 10. As the plot continues we see how the first few episode all tie together (so far). The basic idea so far is that the characters on the ring (Halo) must defend the universe from invasion by a group of 2-dimensional aliens. Unlike other machinima series, such as Red vs. Blue: The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Fire Team Charlie makes extensive use of tricks, jumps, hacks and modifications in their storylines, for example, a flying warthog that shoots rockets out of the gun turret.

Famous quotes containing the words fire, team and/or charlie:
“Not till the fire is dying in the grate,
Look we for any kinship with the stars.
Oh, wisdom never comes when it is gold,
And the great price we paid for it full worth:
We have it only when we are half earth.
Little avails that coinage to the old!”
—George Meredith (1828–1909)
“Relying on any one disciplinary approach—time-out, negotiation, tough love, the star system—puts the parenting team at risk. Why? Because children adapt to any method very quickly; today’s effective technique becomes tomorrow’s worn dance.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“After the first couple of months, she and Charlie didn’t see much of each other except at breakfast. It was a marriage just like any other marriage.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1985)
