I almost lost in the beginning; military and religious vessels bombarded my city, there having developed 2 factions, both at war with me. Fortunately I had an ally: the blue nation. And more importantly, I had something the people who were capturing all my cities didn't know about: the power of money. With my one military focused city I pumped out the mediocre amount of vehicles it would allow and defended my cities with them, putting the rest of my vehicles into a trade route with the blues. I had so many trade ships my coffers were overflowing, so I continued to hardass the enemy and buy out my ally's cities as he captured them. Eventually I had enough money to win: I nuked every other city into submission. I win.

It took almost a year(it finally happened on the 29th of Winter), and a metric fuckload of wild grapes and eggs, but I did it.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

Guards were on high alert, so I stabbed all 10 of them to death in the Florence streets.  First thing I hear after the alarm goes down: "Carne fresca!" (fresh meat).  Turns out I piled them up right in front of a butcher.

After tons of giant insects, kingsnakemen, and more animalmen of other kinds, my militia met its match.

I think you're meant to play the game in the other sense. But yours seems more fun  :D

My first proper play of Crawl aside from the tutorial, I'm playing a Draconian Death Knight. After getting ganged up by an orc with an electrified whip and an orc mage, I barely escaped with my life at only 1 HP after the mage nailed me with a spell.

I retreated back up a floor, came back down and raised a couple zombie helpers, and killed the orc wielding the whip. Said whip is now my weapon of choice and I'm going strong again, looking for that jerkhole orc mage to lash to death. Not bad for my first proper play of this roguelike.

I was flying around in my Mozzie earlier, being an opportunistic bastard. Got 40 certs in half an hour.
Examples of being a little bitch:
Shooting down a reaver, while flying away dodge 6 tank shells heading for my cockpit, kill the tank then run over some guy next to it who was looking at his map.
While running away from one reaver, end up behind to a Phoenix squad, ducked under a friendly tank shell and ran another dude over.

Feels too good, man.

Charging... What game? Just curious. My guess is either EVE, Planetside 2 or WoT. The money is on Planetside 2.

My kobold assassin Rooz was just sneaking along, looting the dungeon and stabbing sleeping vermin when he opened a door and found a most dreadful sight: a pack of jackals accompanied by their foul ogre master. The jackals barked at Rooz, betraying his position and awakening the ogre, who brandished a giant club bigger than Rooz himself. The ogre looked extremely dangerous.

Rooz hacked at the pack of jackals from the doorstep with his +4 +3 orc shortsword he lifted off some dumb (now dead) goblin from earlier, killing several of the jackals as they scrambled through the doorway, but the ogre got too close. Rooz retreated, baiting the ogre and his single remaining jackal into following as he readied his blowgun and his two curare-tipped needles, which he saved for just such a life-threatening occasion. He shot a needle, poisoning the ogre with asphyxiating toxins that slowed the monster's breathing and filled it with pain. The ogre fell back and Rooz managed to kill the last jackal before turning on the ogre itself. Rooz threw a spare dart or two, but the ogre kept coming; the poison was wearing off!

The ogre swung his giant treetrunk of a club, dealing a crushing blow to poor Rooz, but he clung to life! He ran further, desperately scrabbling away from the ogre. The ogre drove Rooz into a chokepoint, trapping Rooz between the ogre and a new-found goblin who looked eager to join the fray and stab our kobold hero in the back! Rooz had little hope left. He threw a dart! The dart nailed the ogre with the force of desperation and drove what battered, sickened life that remained out of its body! The monstrosity was slain!

Rooz turned around flung another single dart at the awestruck goblin behind him, splattering goblin brains all over the walls in celebration of his badassery. Looks like ogre flesh was on the menu.

I found a key AND unlocked a chest! All I found was some eye thing; after jumping over a few spikes, losing a heart to a spider and killing a couple bats all I got was a lousy golden eye. Considering the fact that I'm horrible at this game I'd say this is a great achievement. Even greater than the time I stole a golden thing from a giant boulder shooting background guy. My memory isn't that good because I'm still overwhelmed with the excitement, adrenaline and fear of the damn ghost
