DF Adventurer Mode

[itisnotlogical]

A UFO lands somewhere in North America. "Oh, I should be fine, it's probably just sectoids or something stupid like that."

It was mutons.

I had eight guys with laser rifles and alien grenades.

XCom: UFO Defense

[PTTG??]

While I was fighting an ambush of Supermutant Hammerers, I was ambush ambushed by Supermutant Gunners.

With guns.

My dudes were lucky if they were armored with leather and armed with masterful scrap crossbows, or as I like to call them "Wooden Hammers".

Surprisingly, despite losing 70% of the population, we pulled through with the help of robots. Now we're going to seal the main entrance and try to rebuild. We aren't going to allow traitorous wastelanders in to trade, though.

Deon's Post-Apocalypse mod.

[Mephansteras]

Responding to an Alien abduction at a gas station.

I try to flank up the side of the building to get into some decent cover that won't explode on me.

As I'm just about in position, a group of floaters patrols by and spots us. One goes inside, while the other two scatter.

I position troops around the side door and prepare an ambush.

We open the door, triggering another group of Floaters. A well-placed grenade and a hail of gunfire and all but one of the aliens inside is dead.

Then things go very, very wrong.

First, a group of Mutons shows up. They don't do anything this turn, but they do cut off my flanking options on one side.

Then, two Floaters come down off the roof and get point-blank shots on my soldiers. One rookie and an Assault are down. Both are bleeding, but not dead. Unfortunately, they're in just about the worst possible spot to try and save them.

I take out the floaters, but with two out of five troops down it's not looking good. Especially as my other assault is out of ammo, by Support is low, and the last rookie at about half.

The mutons snipe my rookie out from behind high cover, killing him instantly. The floater then moves up next to my Assault and takes him out.

Down to just my Support, on the wrong side of the building from the Skyranger. I start making my way around the other side, but a Muton rounds the corner and blasts him before he can get out of line of sight.

End of mission.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown

[hops]

While exploring the plains around the city of Woodhearth, I came across to a catacomb. There were no hostile creature at all. Nope, nada, no goblins, no rats, no nightblades, no thieves, mages, etc.
So it was easy for me to walk around and loot the golds. Until I found a locked door. And then the horrible wailing came.
After shamelessly savescumming, I bashed the door down with my longsword of strength, and a pair of red eyes met mine.

The Elder Scrolls I : Arena

[Sirus]

I'm the last one alive, with low health, on a cargo ship in dry-dock. My hunter is practically invisible, but with a shotgun I at least have a chance of killing it before it can kill me. I stand silently in a corner, watching and listening. The unseen pursuer taunts me, but I don't lose focus.

Then hear a scrape to my right and turn...only catch a glimpse of the crate hurtling towards my face. Voice chat explodes.

Meteors started viciously destroying the escape shuttle. As I was incapacitated by an electric shock, a large meteor slowly headed towards me. You can probably guess the rest.

MOTHERASSFUCKINGPIECEOFFUCKSHITPOOP.


Just killed a stag I was hunting for 12 hours straight, and wanted to go home. Home, altough, was a bit far, so I decided to pay visit a nearby Driik village. I zoomed in on their fields, and stole borrowed with no promise of return a little bit of hemp and broad beans. Then, BECAUSE OF MY IMPOSSIBLE AND UNCOUNTABLY BIG STUPIDITY, I see a driik man charging at me, and realize what I did in a milisecond. I trade hits with him, deciding to try and get away before shit goes down, but when I turn around and try to bail, they catch up with me anyway, because I was carrying 200 lbs of stag meat + standard military viking Finnish vagabond issue equipment. Then, I got gangbanged by the entire fucking village.
I had about 250 turnips stolen from another village, sitting in my cellar, and was just about to start building a sauna.

Then again, maybe I will have time to play other stupid games, like SS13, and enjoy the fuck out of them.



But hey, I travelled almost 700 kilometers altogether, and got skill mastery 50%.

UnReal World

[Smashness]

This is a soon-to-be death, I was on Dungeon level 10, when I managed to pass a wall of fire. There was a human guarding a chest, and he attacked me. I tried to bull rush him into the fire, but missed. He went into rage-mode, and changed into a Adult white dragon. He used a wind-blast to throw me back 30 feet and right into a wall.

27 HP left, I'm gonna die.

Incurson

[Dirg]

Decided to do a little deathclaw hunting down by Quarry Junction, feeling a little cocky with my anti-material rifle and all its sweet ammo. Having fun just watching deathclaws go bye bye through my scope when the alpha male shows its head so I swap to the explosive rounds. Surely a round that can either seriously harm, or kill yourself if fired at close range should be enough to take this monster down with a sneak critical head shot. OH GOD IT JUST PISSED IT OFF!

Take on that "observer" UFO, whatever it is.

So far so good...  I don't even know what happens if I fail a plot mission in ironman.  I have been very very careful!  I nearly lost a few months back just due to horrible snafus of normal missions.

My first attempt fits the theme of the thread:  At a friends urging, I launched the game in nightmare mode.  The intro mission was like one of those RPG first-area battles where you cannot win.  I took down two aliens and felt proud, but the XCOM project was not approved.
