From what I see, a lot of the time we have writers on this forums that don't, by the technicalities of writing, suck, but end up doing boring cliched stuff that is painful to read no matter how good of a writer you are. You have to be a loving bona-fide genius to make war/stealth/infiltration/espionage/zombie stories interesting. Honestly, you have to have a disturbingly powerful mind to weave a plot that would compel me to read past that three paragraph drabness. I even skimmed most of the stuff you posted.
