So, I had just finished setting up the defenses for the Northern Nexus, it was rather nice if I said so myself. Had a sentry behind the plasteel barricades and a two thick row of electrified grilles to fuck over the xenos with.

At this point, I had called out several times over the coms about the northern grilles being electrified, I was sitting there chatting with another engineer as entire lemming train of marines all ram facefirst into the grilles and burnt themselves into a fucking crisp.

I was sitting there laughing my ass off at the sight, cause these guys weren't group or anything at all. They all just literally ran one by one into the same goddamn grille with amusing results. Ended up having to spend fifteen minutes running from a horde of pissed off marines who wanted to kill me afterwards.

Not sure this would be considered owning considering all the people I took out were my own team but goddamn it was fucking hilarious. I was just sitting there laughing my ass off for a few minutes.

I thought the last fight of the game would be at least kind of difficult. It wasn't. Olivia was a level 18 Swordmaster with Lethality, Astra, and a Brave Sword. The boss dropped to a series of epic Astra combos on the 3rd turn.

Fastest chapter I've ever completed.

Awakening is not particularly hard on Normal difficulty. I got the final boss with my main character on the first turn.

I forgot to buy the Social Enhancer again at the end of The Missing Link (grrrrr), and there was no way I could get any more Praxis before the final "conversation boss" of the game. However, when I considered the kind of person I was dealing with, what he's trying to accomplish and why he believes he's right, I actually managed to "beat" him with only a small hiccup near the end.

Ambushed by a Hind, and it's complement of infantry. I in turn ambush the infantry on the ground, slamming them into each other and strapping a balloon to them. The next group disembarks, splits one guy off the rest. I ambush the other three, and Fulton them as well, then grab the last one. And then another group drops, and I hit them just as they jump out. Unfortunately, I run out of Fultons, so I tranq the last guy and exchange fire with the helicopter.

A short while later(and faster than I expected) that last guy wakes up, but while taking him down again, I find 5 more Fultons. I Fulton that guy, even as missiles are raining all around us.

Then another group lands, which I again ambush and Fulton. Another RPG to the helicopter breaks open the cockpit, and I snipe the pilots helmet off with the tranq pistol. A minute or two of exchanging missiles for tranq bullets, the sleeping pilot makes a near perfect landing. Chopper secured, along with 21 new recruits.

Galeforce, am I right?

I'm definitely gonna be replaying it on Hard, though, maybe Lunatic, because you're right - Normal is way too easy.

Just... just grab yourself some DLC. Some of them are always set to Lunatic or Lunatic+ in difficulty. Galeforce goes from "game breakingly strong" to "pretty good", as it'll be practically required on every unit you can slap it on.

There's a good reason I'm playing the game once for all my story needs/Waifuchoosing, and then another time for TACTICAL MARRIAGES

No, just 2 attacks doubled to 4 because my avatar was using that sword that doubles your amount of hits.

Edit: Unless you meant getting to the final boss, which I did by pairing my avatar up with Cordelia, who did have Galeforce, and switched back when they got to the boss.

Had a lot of trouble with the final boss on Extreme, so I decided to create a series of absolutely ridiculously overpowered, and very funny looking weapons and kick his teeth in within literally 20 seconds. I still use them now, it's simply hilarious to just watch soldiers fly everywhere, and be able to blow up anything with a single shot via ROCKET SHOTGUN.

The necromancer mummy shuffled along with his undead army.  Sadly, none of his servants have mastered the art of stairs, so he descended to the next dungeon level alone.

Gasp!  Immediately upon traversing the last step he could hear buzzing all around and the sickly scent of honey.  He had unwittingly discovered a hive of killer bees!  They immediately started to swarm and sting his fragile desiccated flesh as he shuffled as quickly as he could back up the stairs.

Three of the killer bees followed him, and were instantly engaged by the army waiting above.  There were causalities, but the three bee's were defeated.  Using his dark necromantic magics he raised them from the dead to be mindless zombies.  Down again he descends the stairs, only to flee again with more bee's poking at his bandages.  Once again they are defeated by the (now dwindling) army and once again he raises the corpses to fight again.

Another trip down, and before him buzzes the queen bee, more angry than anything he has ever seen.  Seeing the hate in its eyes he retreats back up the stairs, followed and attacked by the queen.  However, as the queen bee follows him up, she gazes upon the defiled zombie corpses of her children buzzing lifelessly in the air.  Hesitant, she hovers towards them, hoping beyond hope they would remember her as the queen and help her against this threat to the hive. 

The necromancer turns, and issues a single command.  "Kill".  The zombified bees charge and relentlessly attack the queen bee, who is stunned and horrified by this ultimate betrayal of her own children.  They repeatedly stab her to death with their enlarged stingers, feeling nothing.

The necromancer descends once more to the hive, and starts to collect the spoils.  Royal jelly!  More than any man could eat, he is overjoyed for a moment, until he remembers...

Mummies can't eat food.   >:(  >:(   :P

Is it wrong that all I could think of after I read that was this? :P
