First time encountering a yellow Wizzrobe. Lightning attacks take off so many hearts. And disarm you. And I wasted all the materials that could conceivably make a shock resist food/elixir and instead making food so horrific that the image of the food is actually censored.

Found some silicon in range of my drill's scanner inside an asteroid cave. Accelerated forwards slightly, hit my head on a piece of rock. Died instantly.

Gotta go collect some shock arrows from a Lionel. Apparently he has a lot of them, he just didn't need to use all of them. Also note, there's puddles around, these amplify the damage from these arrows from 3.75 hearts to I only have 4 hearts to begin with.

I saw that Akalabeth: World of Doom was free on GOG. Being one of those mythical ultra-early CRPGs I always read about but never saw, I downloaded it and tried it out.

After picking a lucky number, buying some stuff and walking around some mountains, I died with no warning. I can only assume I starved to death.

A modded start gave me 30 dudes to start with, right off the bat. You'd think it would be easy mode.

Well, no. Aside from the fact that you start with no money and all those dudes need to be fed eventually, you are also placed in some very nasty locations that no bunch of newbies should be running around in. So many runs were ended almost as soon as they began. Cannibals in the North Coast. Striders in the desert. Swamp Ninjas. Slave Takers. Berserkers. Red Sabres. Blood Spiders. Good lord, the blood spiders.

Misinterpreted a song that's supposed to tell you what to do in this quest, and jumped off a 100ft-high waterfall, intending to slam-attack a specific point with the specific weapon required for the quest. I missed and it probably wouldn't have mattered anyway. Drops from a certain height insta-kill you.

Successfully built the most ambitious fort I've ever created. It had a moat and wall for protection, traps for defebding against and capturing cage creatures (which also helped me acquire pet crundles), actual automation and efficiency and stuff, an above-ground farm, the works. I figured it was time for adamantine, so I found my first vein, dug 2 tiles into it and immediately destroyed everyone. I visited the area as an adventurer later, and was immediately ambushed by one of the demons who destroyed the fort before I could even get close to it.

I don’t think you’re entirely telling the truth.

In all my time on the B12 forums I’ve never heard of such a game.

The opposing team had ONE point left before losing. Then they rushed all the Panzers(ALL of them) and even a King Tiger. Never could recover any of the victory objectives, not with their tanks sniping ALL my guys through the ground. My AI teammate could have pulled it back with a flank on the central objective using their half-dozen or so Ranger squads that they've been constantly producing despite the fact they cost 600 manpower when our team had a income rate of ~230mp per minute. But no, they just sit there.

I got eaten by a giant ant. Or webbed by a giant jumping spider. I don't remember. Earth Defense Force 4.1 can dole out really fast deaths where it's hard to keep track of things.

My considerably more experienced teammate (I was going solo), near the end of the game, attempted to wait out his enemy - he had a healing skill and his enemies did not.

However, he did not realize that, unlike in other games of the same genre, the "Safe zone"/"Ring" becomes extremely small, rather than outright disappearing.

When he did realize this, he attempted to quickly rush in and take out the two remaining enemies.

Unfortunately, this didn't go so well.

Much less active than I used to be on these forums, but I still visit them on occasion. Will probably resume my activity in full once Dwarf Fortress will be released on Steam.
