I didn't die, but I managed to get permanently banished from Daggerfall within less than one day of staying there because I attempted to rest too close to the city, which is close enough to a death. Aside from this little incident, I love this game so far.

I should try to get that game to work again, last time I wasn't able to make it run. Anyways my last death was a stupid one. After successfully landing on the slope of a mountain and doing all the science stuff I had to do, I decided to try to climb the mountain on foot. I reached halfway before getting stuck, so I tried to jump but started falling instead. I was apparently rolling fast enough on the side of the mountain to die from fall damage.

Kerbal space program

Edit: managed to play daggerfall I'm still figuring the controls and just realized that the game doesn't save automatically after character creation, which means I have to start the character creation process all over again.

I would've put myself out with my water bucket, y'know, if the nether didn't make water evaporate instantly.

Don't you have to use blunt weapons or magic to even damage them in Daggerfall?

I killed it with a sword, so I know it's possible to damage them with blades. Changing the controls can make fighting more pleasant, because the default controls kind of suck. Hard to move and attack with the mouse at the same time.

[Playergamer]

Playing Mage against a Priest who refuses to die. I have lethal, but I know I won't be able to use it because he'll heal himself. Then, he plays a 5/5, divine spirit, inner fire, woo, 10/10. Yay. I have 5 cards left in my deck, and I know one is a polymorph, and one is a fireball. If I can just draw that....nope. I go on fighting, and after 3 turns, kill that 10.10 with 1 health. Next turn, he doesn't play any minions, and I attack with what I have left on the board. I draw a polymorph, deck's run out. I die right afterwards due to fatigue.

No to both. Skeletons have no material requirement, and I have no idea if blunt weapons are better. There is at least one Imp, near the exit - that has Silver as a material requirement.

Those bastards ran away when things looked bleak. I almost held them off, but there were too many.

To add insult to injury, it's been 28 days.

Last Stand 2, an excellent flash game

[Rolan7]

The martial didn't invite me on the campaign for some reason, but I went anyway.  As the main war party wasted days on a town-siege only to abandon it, I took two castles.  The horse-men aren't so tough when cornered inside their walls...  Well, actually *these* horsemen have a lot of strong infantry, but I was using huge numbers of viking infantry (from captured lands awarded to me) and tundra archers from the homelands.

Good King Yaroglek awarded me the second castle, and I figured...  Why not?  Last I saw, the Sarranids were too busy hiding from our (ADD) main war party to mount a real counterattack.  They'd even tried once, only to get 4 of their lords captured.

So yeah, of course 300 men sieged the castle as soon as I accepted it.  Outnumbered 10-1, and mysteriously no sign of the friendly war party, we decided to make them pay for every inch.

I personally got 90 kills before they surrounded me, and in the confusion I slipped off the wall.  Normally I'd just be captured, but I fell between the wall and a building, stuck in a "falling" state forever.  Nearly dead, but the enemy couldn't finish me off, and I couldn't retreat with them nearby.

There's a kill-self command just for this, except you have to enable cheats first.  Which requires restarting the program.

FINE I'll just load my save from just before the battle and NOT accept the doomed castle I guess    I WAS going to accept the loss but noooo.

Mount&Blade Warband.  Was using Freelancer and Diplomacy, though the only effect of that was that I had the option to surrender the castle AND pay about 15,000 gold to walk away.  Yeah, fifteen *thousand*.  They only pay 2,000 for their lords...  guess I'm a big deal.

Dwarf Fortress

[Akura]

Updated the game after about half a year. Prepping for, and fighting, my first mission, I learned the following the hard way:

• Giving someone armor renders them incapable of using weapons, since equipping more than half of their maximum weight causes severe TU penalties.
• Getting shot can cause bleeding wounds, even with plasma which should technically cauterize the damage area.
• Medkits don't do jack shit anymore. At all.
• Aliens have enough TUs to cross most of the map, take several accurate bursts of fire at my team, and have enough left over for a couple of accurate reaction shots.
• Meanwhile, even without the weight penalties, I can barely move a few steps and have anything left for a single snap-shot(forget aimed fire or reaction shots).

UFO: Alien Invasion. I know it tries to be X-COM, but goddamn. The weight penalty is stupid, the maximum weight is kilograms equal to their strength stat(starting value is 30-38), and armor is 7kg.

[TheDarkStar]

I find that it helps to specialize people. Heavier weapons don't need anything than their gun, ammo, and armor; people with lighter guns or high strength stats should be the ones to carry medkits and other support items. Also, always use reaction fire and cover - if you can use reaction fire from short range (like waiting around a corner), you can use snap shots rather than aimed ones.

I made a new character with blunt weapons as a major skills and managed to kill it. I also changed my controls after the first rat so that's not a problem for me. My most recent death was from a dreugh while I was desperately trying to find air.
