@Flying Dice, those were good books, have you read the newest one?

I last died at the hands of some bogeymen, I had gone on an epic quest, killed the seven local bandits, and then upon my return, on the same map token as the town, they killed me.

Tried to launch all my marines at a ground base to destroy it. Both shuttlecraft get shot down by SAMs well above the ground. I try to kill my command ship by jumping out the airlock and shooting it with a rifle. To be fair, that was somewhat successful, although the first attempt had to be aborted due to the idiot crew deciding to chase after a ship that was already fleeing the region. Then two raider ships show up, and due to the crappy controls, my weapons systems never fire and they manage to cripple my ship. To be honest, I am surprised they didn't destroy it, and I was left to the previous plan of jumping out the airlock and shooting my ship with a rifle. It was successful.

I didn't exactly make friends with Soviet Russia, let me give you a hint at what I did.

Public opinion went to shit and I was assassinated, 1 adviser having resigned and another being killed in nuclear retaliation.

Shadow President.

They only killed one? They killed five of my advisers when I nuked them!

They only retaliated once and I attacked twice, the first time I sent 200 nukes and the second I sent 4000.

Needless to say, I pretty much flattened the 'Union and made them surrender. Before the nuclear strike I invaded them with the help of Turkey and some other country.

Nailed full-on by a large block of stone hurled by a berserk rabbit.

He earned that kill.

See, I sent all of them. All 5000. At once.


I'm a bad person.

I only sent ~4200 because I hit some sort of cap when increasing the number to be launched.

If there wasn't the cap I would've turned the USSR into a giant crater.

I lol'd at all of them nuking each other. My actions just started a tiny war of Me + Turkey + some other morons vs. USSR. Beyond that it was just people condemning each other and blocking trade.

In the end, France assassinated me. Probably for my attempt to assassinate Sweden's leader.

Day 4:
We haven't heard back from Leader 
Captain Warren
since he left
on that recruitment mission.
He's late getting back, too
late. I'm afraid he's not going to
make it this time.

Sent myself out to recruit two survivors hiding out in a church near my little stronghold. Seems I should have taken a military escort. Day 4 and I'm already down three survivors? This is not good.

Game: Rebuild on Hard, as a warm-up to Harder. Dunno if it counts since my death doesn't mean the loss of the game (yet), but I doubt I'll survive, as my stronghold started right next to an Allmart, and, y'know, all my leaders are dead.

So it turns out that dumping magma on skeletons is either a really bad idea or maybe like the best idea ever.
