After my UAZ exploded and I restarted, I come across another UAZ within just a few minutes. It's already mostly repaired. I spend the next 30 minutes fixing it the rest of the way and getting myself a gun. I find a M4A3 and fix the UAZ. I fuel it up enough to get to the barn where I have been shuttling fuel back and forth. I put the car in the barn and start filling the tank. All the sudden I hear the car start up, and I sprint back to the barn. Some guy is stealing my car with all my stuff in it! I close the door so he can't just drive out, and unload my clip into the drivers side door. He backs up and smashes me against the barn wall, and tries to run me over. I fall unconscious, but he fails to finish the job before I get up, despite a broken bone and heavy bleeding. He tries to run me down but can't position right, and I shoot 3 clips into the car. Sadly I am behind and to the right of the car, so I just have to hope a bullet or two get through. He backs over me and I get smashed again, and I now have 2 broken bones and am bleeding heavily. I sense the end is coming, as my character is unconscious and he is positioning to run me over. Right as he is starting to move forward to finish me off, he falls out of the car, dead due to blood loss. I am still bleeding heavily and unconscious, and my blood ticks down from the 10500 it was before this happened to 500. I get up, and start bandaging. I finish bandaging at 56 blood, which is roughly .005% of what you start with. I eat a few steaks, and have someone give me a blood transfusion and go on my merry way.

Sad thing was my car leaked fuel and I had to dump it halfway to BZ.

Probably a reversal of the order of it's laws or something. Depending on the server (whether they use Asimov standard or Nanotrasen legalese) this might have basically demanded maximum selfishness, followed by minor concern for the state of the humans. The humans would probably attack this kind of bot, so wiping them out in a neccessary evil.

But seeking reprogramming that would make you dangerous is still against your laws at the time.

it's probably TGstation, so they wouldn't give a crap.

TGstation and goonstation are asshattery at their finest.

I mean the part where he convinced them to upload antimov. I got jobbanned from AI and Borg a few days ago in /tg/ for doing just that. Antimov says, roughly:

1: You must not fail to harm humans, or through inaction allow a human to escape harm.
2: You must not follow any order given by a human, unless that order follows law one.
3: You must self-terminate immediatly so long as it does not conflict with laws one and two.

If you are Asimov, and you ask a human to add that, then you break law one because you're asking them to upload laws that force you to break every law.

Fired up M2TW with the Regions&Provinces mod. Decide to play as Venice, because money. Within 14 years of play, I've conquered all of the Italian Peninsula, minus Rome, gotten 5 priests into the college of cardinals, and championed two crusades, one on Cairo and one on Jerusalem. Feeling like a champ because my goal is 55 provinces with 300 years of play, already gotten to 20 or so after 14.

I was playing Civilization 3.
Playing on Chieftain, the easiest difficulty, so not too badass but still cool.

I was the Iroquois, I started on the same continent as the Americans.
I rushed to Monarchy, then filled out my research.
When I got to the Medieval age, I immediately went Feudalism.
I built the Crusades and The statue of Zeus, which give me units every few turns.
Using this as my offensive force, I stomped all over the Americans, killing them all pretty quick.
Most of their cities were useless, but whatever.
After that I had a wonderful time developing my nation, because all the other Civs were on another continent.
I researched Magnetism pretty quick, and went on to the other continent.
At this point I had most of the luxury resources, so my cities were VERY happy. This would prove useful when I conquered cities.
The three Civs on the other continent were the Chinese, Vikings, and Persians.
The Persians were the strongest, and the Chinese the weakest.
I waited until I went into the industrial age and switching to Facism before invading China.
Mostly jungle, my army of Ancient Cavalry and Crusaders crushed thousands beneath their heels.
Supplemented by new Cavalry and riflemen unites, me guys stand on the borders of the Persians, ready to launch another full scale war on a much weaker target(Immortal is their best unit  :P), even though China is still an undeveloped jungle land.
And that's where my game is!

In Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl, I was able to sneak into the Instutute, get the briefcase, then sneak back to the place with the bar without getting caught. I had to get a silenced pistol and do said mission in the middle of the night.  8)

This was a while ago, but a good one.

I'm playing Pyro when an Uber'd heavy/medic combo enters the room.

There is only one safe place.

I jump unto the Heavy's head.

The heavy thinks the room is clear while I wait for the Uber to wear off...

FWOOOSH.

But seriously, if it counts in my opinion I owned as a bard in Mabinogi when a couple bay12ers and I were going through a particular dungeon. Supporting roles, with all their buffs and debuffs and healing, are really what pulls a team together.

Walked into a monster zoo of 104 beasts. Then proceeded to beat 'em all while taking little to no damage. I have too high resistances, damage absorptions, dodge chances, block chances etc.

And it's a randomized character. Communist bankers FTW.

I crawled from some random Quarry at the coast to Groznij Grad.. i mean Berez-hospital with 2000 blood and broken legs, daytime, through warzones.
Hatcheted 70 zombies on my way. I was hard the entire time. (wait.. what?!)

Cool setup. Have any ammo troubles with that? Hard to hit things with the rockets?
Didn't have much of an ammo shortage, except longer missions, and even then I still had plenty. Heavy Rockets have a range above your visual range, so hitting static targets is a non-issue. Moving targets(distanct 'Mechs) can be tricky. Heat build-up was a much bigger issue, I think.

After this, though, I put 4 HyperAC5s on a Fafnir. Damager-per-salvo is close to that of the dual Heavy Gauss cannons the default Fafnir has, but with a much higher rate-of-fire and no ammo troubles. No heat build-up either, so I could pull off the heatsinks and divide the extra tonnage between engine and ammo. Range is extreme, too, and unlike the LBX ACs, damage doesn't drop off at range.  It's nice dropping an assault Mech from green to yellow on their armor display in one hit from nearly a kilometer away.
