After about 5 attempts and skill switchups, I finally managed to beat a 225-man mob round - I was worn down to my last health at about 25 guys left, with the golden sword triggered and everything. Felt like a badass, which helped the shame that I had to have that to beat the level in the first place.

Video games have taught me that if you don't use whatever you have at your disposal, you're gonna lose.

Then again, survival horror games (and even a few non-survival horror games) have taught me to hang on to the really special stuff so I don't waste it on something...

Hm.

Won a Von Carstein VH/VH campaign on turn 72. It helps a lot that the victory condition doesn't require fighting Archaon's boys.

And then you never use the good stuff because the normal stuff is plentiful and efficient enough, and that you've already used it so much you know exactly how and when to use it.

I'm never going to manage this again, but in the midst of a military attack on my HQ I managed to shoot down 3 VTOLs with a single RPG.

Took a very long time, but I've finally made a perfectly flat barren world, the entire way around, via cutting down mountains and filling in valleys. It was done for the purpose of building a massive hive city across the planet, at least until the number of NPCs generated crash the game.

Not sure if this is really an own, but...

Beat the game.

Sloan's inevitable death was much more satisfying than the death of the final villain in AC3, despite the fact that both deaths take place during a cutscene. Funny how that works.

Now to go recapture the outposts and everything.

And isn't the ending song so great?
Blood Dragon's mechanics are a bit shallow compared to FC3, which is why it was a cheaper standalone "demo", but the cinematics (interactive and otherwise) are spot-on.

After a short break, and not having an active Skype call, I beat Undyne without too much trouble.  Turns out FOCUS is as important as DETERMINATION.  Speaking to a recorder instead of holding a conversation, it wasn't hard to learn the patterns.

I thought I'd feel worse.  But she was in my way, and my LV is high.  On to the next challenge.
Also, her music was very Touhou~

Edit for FC: BD's end song
So 90's, not even 80's.
And friends through eternity- loyalty, honesty... hng.

Stumped Akinator for the first time in a while, with The Unicorn Wizard. It asked me a lot of questions leading to Danny Sexbang, and brought up other Youtube characters, but didn't make the distinction after three rounds.

Made someone ragequit twice due to my "camping". Note: I was simply holding the capture point while attacking a base, the thing you are supposed to do in this game.

Noobstomping is fun, but occasionally I feel kinda bad about it.

Finally got StuG IV. I've been casually grinding it down since the personal missions started, only after the damn arty mechanics were changed I managed to finish the Arty15. Took the tier 6 frenchie and pinned down a bunch of heavies (that remained on roughly on the same spot all the time even as I continuously dropped shells on their general vicinity) to the north corner of El Halluf, netting 2 kills and more than enough assist to get the damn premium.

I miss the common chat.

Shotgun slugs are an attachment - they greatly tighten the spread of shotguns, allowing them to be used at medium-long ranges. This effectively turns shotguns into pump-action rifles.

I've performed a lot better without shotgun slugs, focusing mainly on enemies at close-medium range. The close-medium range also means I don't need to attach optics, allowing me to spend my supply points on other things.

My killcounts have been a lot higher, at least on co-op mode.

There's a distinct difference between "newbies" and "noobs". If the person you made quit was truly the latter, you shouldn't feel too bad.

Just make sure you can tell the difference before you put your foot down. There's a comic that can help you somewhere, but I can't find the proper one because school wi-fi has filters and the like.

A mission to kill many, many people, to sate the thirst of a daemon of Khorne... despite being the Necrons. ???

I was fighting the Imperial Guard. They charged my base. Hilarity ensues.


In a separate battle, that moment when you realize that a Restored Monolith can in fact infiltrate if its near the Necron Lord wearing a Veil of Darkness. I wonder if that's how Creed learned to do that with Baneblades.

Won the VH/VH Dwarf campaign in 69 turns, before any of the Chaos stacks arrived, in one sitting session, with a few breaks taken without actually closing the game. I think it took me 5 to 6 hours total.

Total War: WARHAMMER.

I'm getting good at this game.
