Well, ramming IS a legitimate tactic in this game, but usually you'd do it in a heavy due to ramming damage being based on wieght, speed, and armor(though lights ramming arty isn't uncommon)

[Xeron]

Proceeded to hack,kill and destroy everything from the starting area to the Lower Seatle Slums.

Deus Ex Invisible War

[Akura]

After several attempts, across several alpha versions, I finally took both pirate asteroid bases. Despite grievous losses in ships, I kept anti-fighter frigates near the station, along with my command cruiser, to shoot down any fighters that launched as my marines boarded. The first station was taken just fine. The second one, my marines and the enemy crew managed to completely kill each other, rendering the station a neutral entity until I brought another transport in.

Void Destroyer. It's taken me a long time to get around to the most recent version.
Unfortunately, it crashed when I tried to destroy the alien gate.

Had a good 40 years in office. Within the first decade, I had over $60,000 in the treasury from exports of tobacco, gold, pinapples and cigars. Completely devastated the ecology in the process, but I never toady to the environmentalists anyhow. In the next 10 years, I expanded to coffee, bananas, and jewelry. A few elections came close, but Mardi Gras, and a Tax Cut or two, always came through and bailed me out, giving me a win without fraud.

By the end of my reign, I had a little over 300 people, one rebel(I think he was killed), about $750k in the treasury(despite a maritime strike), and about $20k in my Swiss account, and had earned the respect of both superpowers, and their related factions.

Not so much a win, as a DAHAHAHA moment.

Take the pilot's seat of a hercules C-130. Friendly team loads up until we a good 20 players or so, including copilot. I've got the flightplan in my mind, I've shouted last call for a para drop--
Engines online, throttle up... Launch!
Picking up speed nicely-- Hey wait this runway is a bit damn short isn't it-- Ah, liftoff thank god.

Then I pulled up. Except, this a C-130. It's massive and I pulled up too hard.
Engines stall, Entire allied team falls into the ocean butt first.

Arma 2.

If that happens to you again, try to roll it hard left and dive down while starting the engines again. and pulling parallel to the water at the last second. I have managed to skim the water while doing the same and thereby saving crew and cargo.

[MaximumZero]

Not me, but my four-year-old just hit four strikes in a row. O_O
Wii Bowling.

[Satarus]

Got 6 kills plus 1 friendly fire kill by sneaking up on an enemy sunderer and using my tank mines.
-Planetside 2

[Squanto]

So, I just ultra carry doctored.  I had 24 bloodstone charges at the end of the game, 17 kills 2 deaths and 21 assists.  The entire enemy team ragequit shortly before losing.

Dota 2

[NRDL]

Managed to gouge out all the eyes of a large pack of dingoes.

[itisnotlogical]

I haven't been playing Super Mario World (the GBA port) for about a month, due to the sheer rage-inducing might of Lemmy's Castle. I got so sick of the game-over jingle that I stopped playing all my other Mario games just by association.

Of course, I beat it in one go in the middle of the night when I'm about to go to bed and not even trying.

[The Darkling Wolf]

Bound to happen.

If you keep losing at a particular level or boss fight or race or whatever in a game. Stop playing for a day or two, you'll come back and cruise through it like it's nothing.

[Karnewarrior]

Yeah, I kept losing in XCOM's classic difficulty, until I took a short break and came back. Then my guys veritably blazed through the aliens... until my friend got his computer back and started messageing me on steam again. IMMEDIATELY I ran into a pack of three mutons and two floaters, my heavy panicked and ran directly across from them so they had him flanked, and my guys began missing again.

I'm coming to hate this game.

But my *own* was that first part. That felt pretty good.

[Mr Space Cat]

Started playing my last hero again, a dwarf archaeologist whom I couldn't remember why I ditched. Oh right, because she's blind and hallucinating.

After sitting in the corner a bit until I can see again I try to move on and kill an enemy in one whip-swing. It was a floating eye. After nomming the corpse and popping my blindfold on I find that even in telepathy I can hallucinate. Returning to my small hideaway until the drugs wear off, I decide to drink from the nearby fountain in the hope that it might cure my trip.

"You drink from the fountain.
You sense the presence of evil.
Grateful for her release, she grants you a wish!"

Heck yeah. RNG's must love me. Now I need to think of a wish.

Entry to a rehab clinic

[Devling]

I hear you can wish for excalibur!
That sounds like a good idea.

[Urist Imiknorris]

I take it you're an archaeologist? Grayswandir.
