Clone Drone in the Danger Zone: dead on level 25 with a spear to the processing unit while I was down.

[Greiger]

Ran some raids in pokemon SnS with a friend after we were able to transfer some of our old pokes in. We decide to fight the gmax toxicitry. Messing around I see I have a lv100 keldeo so I decide to throw that in, figuring it's lv 100 and a legendary, it should be able to beat it even without ev training.  Variety is the spice of life after all.

The keldeo may be level 100 but I didn't bother to check it's moveset.  It just knows aqua jet, bubblebeam, double kick and leer.  My friend figuring I would carry because I have fully trained lv 100 pokes made just for raid battles brings in a level 50 mawile.

Npcs brought a quilfish, and a solrock.  The Mawile is the most capable thing in the fight.   We get wrecked.

Things like leer and harden (and splash, but that's sort of the point) feel like a waste of a slot. It should just be an ability that runs either at the start of the fight or every few moves. At that point, taking up a slot is fine, but you at least don't have to worry about wasting time using that instead of attacking.

Killed by a trio of screaming elemental themed mages with no legs while everything was too chaotic for me to even know where I was.

People who said Kirby Star Allies is much harder in the optional side content were right.  The boss rush is easy up through the levels that are unlocked by default, but I started playing Friends in Another Dimension, and that is way harder than the base game.  The bosses are much faster and seem to do much more damage.  For the Corrupted Hyness and the fight with Flamberge, Francisca and Zan Partizanne in particular, I resorted to just taking 3 Magolor buddies with me since he seems to be the most powerful in general.

The biggest issue is that with 3 buddies, there is so much going on I can't keep track of Kirby.  Especially when there are 3 enemies with giant screen filling spam attacks.

Leer and harden

That's an impressive missed innuendo opportunity

Pfft get on the level of leer, harden, sleep powder, and pound.

Sooo, I took a contract to kill the King of the North.  King spawns with 12 buddies, it's day ~50.  My team is admittedly lacking in raw punch, but does okay with a mix of mass crossbow, 2 main tanks, and copious use of spears and 2h hammers.  This is the team that, with some careful positioning, took out 5 unholds at once.  And took on 15 direwolves and a merc company in a 3v3 brawl.

Anywho, high on the thrill of murdering most of what the noble contracts can offer outside of 3star contracts and serious orcs, I took the contract because trading in my world is practically non-existent.  My only reliable trade is amber and copper, each from 1 city.  3k means a lot when you can't just trade for more money.

So King's retinue is several reavers and some thralls.  Cue 3 hammer reavers spawning on their right flank and King himself moving to his right too.

We got wrecked.  Just melted away.  6 died in 2 turns.  Including my tanks.  it was a total route.

Battle Brothers.

Hitman 2, the newest time-based contract (in Columbia):

First, I grabbed as many non-lethal weapons (mainly wrenches and crowbars) as I could, and got my poison out of the cache. I took out several of the guards at the office downtown and destroyed the camera recorder, but no target. Then I went to the mansion, killed 5 guards with 5 bullets, and hid until they quit looking for me. I checked all 3 floors, and got out without anyone seeing through my disguise, but didn't find a target. Then I went to the village, and knocked out a few people who were wandering around (I try to avoid killing civilians), and hid their unconscious bodies in safe locations. I found a shack that had a camera and lights set up in it, but no target. The village is a pain, because there are a lot of wanderers and people are watching everywhere. So, I went into a building where I couldn't be seen, knocked out the person inside, but someone heard me through the wall, and somehow compromised me. I died in a hail of gunfire (while hiding in some bushes) without ever finding the target.

Got my party wiped out just in the second battle of the Warrens dungeon, because I was a dumbass and forgot that the party order goes from left to right, not right to left.

I've just got my Psi-Helmet from Sakharov after waiting 2 days and hunting zombified people around their mobile science labs for ammo loot.

The "defend the lab from several zombies waves" mission suddenly started before i got the Psi-Helmet, fortunately i had plenty of bullets (as i had prepared for the X-16 cleaning in order to shut down the Miracle Machine) so i decided to give a hand to the ecologists .
I went to pick up the item (it's used to resist the zombification that happen around the X-16 entrance) then went to war.

Along the ecologists troopers i destroyed lots of zombified stalkers.

Now i have a (modified) faction dynamic relationship addon, and as there was a lot of zombies being killed in all those waves, positive factions points were going fast (and they were near to be friends to my faction when i arrived at Yantar).

So much it reached a specific amount, and the modification done on the dynamic relationships addon adds a chance when relationship get too high to have a faction backstabbing you by declaring war (without that modification considering there's a lot of zombies and monolith troopers in that game that killing give positive points, every games would end with all the factions becoming your friend forever, ruining a part of the emergent gameplay that can be generated during that freeplay gameplay).

I didn't set the chance too high so super friendly factions would still get friendly (or turn neutral as there was a chance for this too) for a while, but i must have had very bad luck, because while i was near an ecologist friend gunning down a zombie, suddenly the guy turned to me and opened fire.
Good my duty radiation suit is strong (and full upgraded) as i managed to run to cover before being killed (and use some medi kit) as bullets started to rain around me from other ecologists still alive.
Yeah, the faction just turned on us,  damn traitors

I decided to not try to kill all of them, because i wanted to keep enough medikits for the X-16 assault. So i ran into the Miracle Machine zone of influence (protected from being turned zombies by my nice shiny Psi-Helmet) and left the ex-friends new-enemies behind.

I finally approached the factory complex entrance (the entrance to the X-16 underground lab is in one of the buildings in the back of that complex).
Spotted a Chimera in one of the open area, the things also spotted me as it started to rush and do their giant jumps around.
Fortunately staying behind the barriers i had nothing to worry, for a time at least, so i switched to my weapon under-barrel grenade launcher , from my position i would be able to land several grenades before the Chimera would find a way to claw me.

Then i suddenly heard a noise on my right, turned quickly to see a Pseudodog was jumping to my throat.
Not expecting this surprise attack from that sneaky beast i accidentally pressed the trigger.

The Pseudodog got exploded by the grenade.
Bad news considering the monster was so close, i exploded with him

Managed to get a mostly-sufficient construction system in place - I still have to import most of the materials, but I don't need to worry about labor costs.

Then I notice that many of my buildings are suffering from total labor shortages, notably the power plant which is bad because everything else requires power. I check the population statistics and discover that more than half my entire population are toddlers(age 0-6), half what's left are schoolchildren, and about half of the working population won't because a lack of kindergartens for the little bastards. Each kindergarten will take at most about 80 toddlers, but only when fully staffed. I only had one. And all these kids came about in the span of about 6 months.

That sounds like so many fortresses. Did the children also complain about lack of booze, because they had already drank it all?
