If you've destroyed every other nest, then who do you face in tribal mode?  Do other, random, creatures just pop up in the game, even if you haven't seen them at all in creature stage?
I assume they swam over from other continents.

Already rampaged and completely destroyed one Pride, and I was halfway through the second. I'm on the third floor, and the boss and his tanky crony pop out of nowhere. I dominate, pop rampage, and frenzy. The boss pops down to about 80% health, and then I use slash.

Boom, 1700 damage crit, not even taking into account on-hit damage.

Oh god.... i feel for you, you sir really dont know whats coming.... your next post will be in the how did you last got *owned*
My next time that I owned-
I landed at the crash site.  My men moved up in their normal pattern, with my sniper finding a good place to hide, my heavy hanging back a bit, and my assualts and supports leading the attack.  One of my men spotted a sectopod.  My sniper blew it up, with two crits in a row.  my heavy then killed the remaining drones.  I then encountered a group of mutons, and my assualts mindcontrolled two.  They helped kill the remaining enemies, while one of my assualts charged the etheral, who only had one hp left.  He got mind controlled, and to prevent further damage I used disabling shot on him, and then realized that I could of just shot the etheral, which I did using double shot.  So all in all, the only reason my man was wounded was because of friendly fire.  Which went in the books as a freak occurence caused by a magnetic anomaly that caused a shot to brush his armour.

Had The End down to the last bit of health. I chased him to the northern part of the forest. I lost sight of him for a bit, but I had his general location when he started shooting at me. I put on my thermal goggles and see a large-ish mass just north of me. I toss a grenade at it, but find it didn't do anything, so I charge him with my shotgun, blasting it up close...

Only it wasn't The End, it was a markhor goat. However, The actual End was trying to run past behind me, so I just simply turned around and blasted him away with my shotgun.

Defeated The Boss with record ease. When she was running up to use CQC, I simply shot her in the face with my shotgun. If I missed, I dequipped it, reversed her grab, and slashed her with my knife. Repeat until I'm standing over her pointing her own Patriot in her face.

Defeated a boss I've been trying for months to kill. Okay, so it's been a few months since I've tried, but it has taken many many attempts to bring it down. Sure, it involved blowing up the sun, but I did it finally. The entire rest of the dungeon(the boss was at the entrance) was filled with really weak enemies in comparison...

I simply have to assume that either aliens were transporting them over or they flew or something.

So, since all the available star systems were already claimed, I spent every single turn developing my economy, and of course my !!SCIENCE!!.
Due to my natural affinity for it, I was around twenty techs ahead of everyone else by turn 100. I was also allied with the local superpower (the other twos being somewhat upset by my borders).
At that time, I began refusing unfair demands en masse. ("Asking me for all of my antimatter for... Open borders? You know very well where you can put this treaty. With the 254 others.")
Now the north-western neighbour was getting increasingly upset by my rebuttals. So I teched military like there was no tomorrow, and popped 6 dreadnoughts with 26 batteries of lvl6 cinetic weapons each, plus lvl6 flak, lvl3 shields and lvl4 armor, and all kinds of goodies.
Needless to say, when the first two rolled out, I skyrocketed from 4th (and last) military power to a firm first. The puny humans crapped their pants and the arrogants north-western dudes declared war instantly. Too bad, a single one of my babies is so impressive their whole offensive force just fled. Then I finished the six of them and sent them to attack their systems.
The most powerful of their fleets have around 800 power. Mine is OVER 9000. Ownage. (I think I once did 12.000 damages... Or would have done if they didnt flee before the disruptive rounds hit :()

While hunting squirrels, I ran across my second njerp warrior. I barely defeated my first after an extended battle of my woodsman's axe versus his bastard sword, which I took as part of my spoils.

Well, despite my rather pathetic sword skill of 19, I snuck up close to the sleeping warrior, bastard sword in hand. The warrior woke up at the last moment, but I delivered a brutal blow to the stomach that knocked him out instantly, allowing me to deliver a final decapitating strike. Killing a barbaric warrior in two hits with a badly untrained melee weapon? Taking no damage in return? Sounds like ownage to me.

I managed to kill four soldiers in a fort, one by one, as they advanced on me, with my bare hands.  Sustained no injuries.

I was sailing around the eastern edge of San Fierro, fishing as I went. A guy was adrift in the water, so I slowed down to give him a lift, because I'm a nice guy.

He said "Give me your boat." I said "Nope."

He said "Give me your boat or I will shoot you."

I said "Try it, see what happens!" He ran up toward my cabin and I placed a hit on him worth $15000. He hesitates.
I'd hired a hitman for $50000 previously to drive alongside the beach and keep me safe while I was fishing. The hitman accelerates far ahead of my boat while I slow down, he gets a sniper rifle out and shoots the other guy, killing him. Thus I keep my boat, get my fish, and the hitman makes a tidy $65k profit.

Same game as above, my friends sneakily work their way toward Diplomatic Victory. But as they are 97% complete, I break all treaties with them (not actually getting at war), considerably slowing down their progress. At the same time, I rush the Wonder Victory. 7 turns before all 5 shrines of invulnerability are completed... They are at 99% completion... They hit 100% at turn 203... But don't actually win. The UI must round up or something, so they are in reality between 99.5 and 99.9999999% complete. I manage to get two more turns before I complete the Wonders, snatching victory right from their greedy, greedy hands.

Oh, and I have a new record: 51.639 damage dealt in the long range phase alone. With cinetic weapons. And that was 22% efficiency...
All of the ennemy fire was intercepted by flawless defences and I suffered literally no damage at all.

Played a CTF botmatch with me(Bond) and Alura against a Pheonix Commando and a Black Ops trooper, on a ski resort map, which has a lift going between both bases(mine was the ski lodge, theirs was like a castle or something). Assaulted their base and grabbed their flag. Since I didn't want to try and shoot my way getting out from the ground floor, I went for the lift. However, since the lift wasn't there at the moment, I jumped onto the roof, then onto the steel cables that carry the lifts between the bases. Captured the flag by tightroping back, and then killing one of the Pheonix guys who had just taken our flag.

Following that, I defended our flag using the Sentinel guided rocket launcher. There's two ways to kill a man; you can look him in the eye, or you can drop him before he even knows you're there. And with camera-equipped remote-controlled rockets, you can do both from across the map!

Giving up my character's individuality was totally worth dealing thousands of damage, and having more spells that's a wizard's convention. Getting out of Eureka was a million times easier than getting in, and couple of bosses I missed were cakewalks.

Still, I'll miss Cacame beating up monsters with his bare hands1., Urist the dedicated Dragoon2., Derm shitting earthquakes3. and Cero4.... Well Cero just put on a different hat. Cero didn't change much, besides for the better.

As of right now, there is a satellite in orbit over Kerban.  It has two extended solar panels providing power to a gravitic sensor thingie, a couple of other sensors, an electric engine that doesn't do anything, and an comn antennae.  While this doesn't really do anything, and it is a minor feat for more experienced players, it is immensely satisfying seeing something other then debris orbiting Kerban.
