That damn CYPHER decided to twitch a little just as I pulled the trigger, making me hit the camera rather than the control unit. A metric ton of exploding Semtex later, Mission Failed.

The rule with alien psionics is that if the aliens can see one of your soldiers, they can target all of them with psi.

I don't know why that's the rule, but it is.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

It gets worse. After a certain number of turns (20, I believe), the aliens automatically know where all of your soldiers are and can psi them.

I believe though that aliens tend to target the soldier with the lowest... courage? At least that's what I remember happening during one let's play I watched.

No, I think Psi Defence is a completely separate stat from Bravery.

A bunch of white worm masses bred explosively and filled a room. I had to go through that room to get anywhere. I died from excessive poisoning due to the zerg rush of white worm masses. I just started the game. classic unfair roguelike death.

I downloaded La-Mulana... I think that speaks for itself.

I forgot to indent any of my if statements, and though it didn't kill me it set me back quite a bit of work. Suits me for coming back to it after a while.

Decided to take on Duke Fishron. I can beat Plantera, the second hardest boss in the game, pretty easily, plus I have vampire knives, one of the best melee weapons. It shouldn't be a challenge.. right?

Nope, I got annihilated. Ow.

Turns out, the AI can lock down every vehicle in your attack force at the same time. The enemy quickly picked apart my attack force, then descended upon my base.

Starcraft. And I thought "Archimonde's Ascent" from Warcraft III was hard :o

Rule number 1 of playing Warcraft/Starcraft is that you do not try to overwhelm the AI. It is impossible.

I didn't even try to overwhelm them. It was just 12 marines, 4 siege tanks, 5 wraiths and a science vessel. That combination tends to at least gain some ground before I have to rebuild it all.

I have the feeling that you're not actually "supposed" to take the white Confederate base in this mission, and just head straight for the Ion Cannon (this is still "The Hammer Falls" BTW). Or else I just suck at Starcraft, which is already a confirmed fact.

Is that the one where you're on the orbital platform? Because I'm sure I've cleaned the place out.
