Servitor shoots, misses. Swiss cheese out of the fucking wall. Go blind from the glare for a round.

Spend next round behind cover, flashbang the thing to stun it. It recovers from stun, but loses its turn. Great.

Pop out, full auto at it. One damage. It's taken three out of ten wounds. Fuck.

Lascannons through the cover, still take light wounding. 6/13 wounds left. Pop out with bolt pistol, aim for its charge pack. Shoot. Damage it, slightly. Enough for it to leak...and explode.

Off goes the charge pack, 15m radius explosion. I'm 28 meters out, so alls cool with this psyker.

Then the power packs on the Astartes armor gets breached. Goes off. Blows up. We spend an hour rolling damage, and to see if the charge packs blow up. They do.

THEY ALL DO.

Ten suits of Astartes Power Armor blow up, taking down this entire room with them. And me. I try to burn fate, but the explosion is so complete, that I'm incinerated (picture in first post related). All the 20+ kilograms of ammo I'm carrying go off, it's a big fucking mess. No way to fate out of this one.

Now this entire section of the building is nonexistent, but that's not the best part.

I was caught on camera before entering the room.
My party was sent here by a non-inquisitorial Rogue Trader to assassinate someone, someone that the Inquisition was suspicious of. My character wanted evidence and fucked up. Now everyone in the party is deemed an accomplice. And the Deathwatch were on their way to pick up the armor.

Whoops. Glad I died.

>>16680189
Also, yes. I believe it is. Looks like older MtG art. I just googled (Incinerate) and it came up as a result.

>>16680318

Great, thanks.

Also, on topic with the thread, one of my fighters died during sex with a drider. That's glorious in its own right, right?

>>16680288

In spite of my lack of the actual picture....

clap.gif

Let me think for a moment of -my- character deaths...may take a moment to find the most glorious one.

My character had, over the course of the campaign, almost fallen in this one particular chasm three times. It was near the BBEGs stronghold. Failed jump checks, balance across a narrow plank placed as a bridge, while fleeing from monsters, etc. I had managed to save myself from certain death at the bottom twice, while another party member saved me the other time. I thought I was cursed, and this chasm was my destiny, and would some day be the death of me.

Well...

In the final battle against the BBEG, an ogre mage, he was flying out over the chasm, bombarding the party with spells. Hyuga, my character, managed to leap across the chasm, grappling him in mid-air and clinging on for dear life. While in the grapple, I drew my dagger and stabbed him, leaving it there for extra leverage. My grip started to slip, and I found myself hanging on to his legs. I wasn't about to fall in that fucking chasm though. Pulling myself back up, I headbutted the dagger in deeper (damaging myself a bit as well), and pulled myself back up until we were face to face. We wrestled in mid-air for a few more rounds, with me punching, biting and trying my best to keep him occupied while the rest peppered him with arrows and spells in the back.

Finally, as we both neared death (single-digit HP each), I released my grip long enough to Quick Draw / Iaijutsu Strike, stabbing him deep with my sword and again, holding on to it for dear life. However, we both plummeted into the ravine and, well, I just couldn't survive the fall at that point.

Destiny fulfilled, I guess.

>>16680180

This is a comparative short one. We're playing a Mekton Zeta game, loosely based on Gundam; It's near the final battle, and it's a massive fleet engagement; Missiles exploding, Mobile Suits being ripped to pieces, everyone firing ALL THE TIME.

My 'mech, with a heavy-duty flight pack and railgun, is a capital ship killer; I zip around the battlefield and gut them with my heavy weapon. The problem is, in an 'All-Guns-Blazing' run on the enemy flagship, I fly *right* into the path of one of the flak barrages.

Rolling...Right arm gone, shit, that was the railgun. Left leg gone, which isn't so bad. Canopy cracked...The cockpit's venting atmosphere, and I don't have a spacesuit. Our corvette is in flames, and the other ships are desperately fighting for our lives.

Before I die from explosive decompression, I redline the engine, and scream: "FOR THE DOMINION OF MAN! DEATH TO ALL SPACENOIDS!" Before smashing my mech face-first into the flagship's bridge.

My engine explodes. Then the warheads I'm carrying. Then all my remaining fuel. So does the enemy ship.

We also realized, actually, this it's much more effective to ram ships with mobile suits than to actually fire on them. This is the kind of thinking which created Gundam 00's Gaga.

>>16680515

My bad, it should be:

"FOR EARTH AND THE DOMINION OF MAN! DEATH TO ALL SPACENOIDS!"

Also, two other players died shortly afterward (One burnt a Fate point to be 'merely crippled'), in a blistering firefight with the antagonist's 'Vigilance' mech.

>>16680514
>>16680514
DM liked the character so much that he plugged in the Franken Fran character at the end of the campaign to bring him back to life.

Yep, actually said

And give Fran some credit, he came back more like his original form than the first time.

An unbound fucking daemonhost pops up in the middle of a fucking hive.
Everyone opens up on it, does shit-all damage. It kills the techpriest with contemptuous ease.
I use my last Fate Point to activate The Unforgiving Blade, and do a good amount of damage. The thing just laughs and fries the Guardsman. Now, I had on me a bunch of promethium explosives that I made myself. I tell my GM I want to martyr myself while everyone escapes (if you've never read it, you do an unavoidable hit then die), activating the grenades at the same time.
The entire tunnel collapses on us, and I die screaming praises to the Emperor.

The end of a campaign that has taken our party from 5th level to 21st level.

We run into the large mountain lair of this bitch who has been harassing us through mirror images throughout the campaign. Finally get to her throne room. Pearls of power EVERYWHERE in the room. Piles of them. Think Scrooge McDuck piles of gems.

I am playing a monk, focusing on being able to walk up and hit like a million fucking times.

The bitch starts to monologue about some bullshit. My character is having none of this. I was tired of her bullshit. I charge up and punch the dirty bitch in the face. Two lucky crits in a row later, she be dead.

The look of shock on my DMs face was priceless. "Uhhh... She had a contingency spell set. Set to release all the energy in all the pearls of power at once."

I got a natural 20 on the reflex save to not be vaporized by the release of magic. Natural 1 reflex save to avoid the mountain falling on me.

Several other people saved enough times to survive. I did not. We joked that my character survived the collapse, and was able to transform into a dragon to dig my way out (I took the entirety of 'Initiate of the Draconic Mysteries')

Ended the campaign, and fucking blew up a mountain.

>>16680663
I chuckled a bit :D

>>16680663
So the DM wouldn't have saved your character by doing the whole dragon thing?

>>16680691

If the campaign had continued, we probably would have said that, or gotten a good ressurection done. It was an evil campaign, and the entire party was working for the same evil church (Cult of the Dragon in Faerun). I was a good enough servant that they probably would have helped bring me back. That monk did a lot of epic stuff for not actually being epic for most of the campaign. I can talk about his most epic moment if anyone is interested.

>>16680724
>>16680724
Ah, the reason my Hunter got resurrected by Fran was because of the characters motivation and we were thinking of possibly continuing and the DM liked that character.

The hunter even learned a lesson. Stop being a Human supremacy asshole and save the cute monster girl and she will bring you back from the dead after you get smashed apart by clockwork behemoths and subsequently blown to bits by your own deathtrap.

Somebody get that fuckaesome story about the lvl1 Paladin, eh? With the broken tree, remember? And the fumble table?

Slightly different one here. This was a Battletech game.

We were playing on MegaMek, and the other guy had deployed in the middle of a city. I had a fast heavy with MASC and short range weapons, so I had him run towards the enemy as fast as he could.

Problem was, he ran on pavement.

Needless to say, he blew his piloting skill roll on a turn and skidded off the road. The good news was that he displaced two enemy mechs, one of which fell ass over teakettle off a cliff into shallow water.

The bad news was that he stopped his fall by crashing into and destroying a light building.

The worse news was that it wasn't a light building, but a full fuel tank. Fucking reused sprites!

So it turns out that we weren't fighting in a city, but in an airport, and those buildings were all fuel tanks. So those buildings we were using for cover? All phenomenally explodable.

The resulting explosion covered the entire corner of the map and wiped out five of the eight mechs on the board, two of mine, three of his, all on the first phase of the first turn. The damage report took, I shit you not, a good twenty minutes to read, though I'll admit a lot of that time was laughter.

Since none of our surviving mechs were within weapons range at that point, I don't think we even had a firing phase that round.

>>16680745
A LESSON I WILL REMEMBER FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE

>>16680800

Awesome. Wish I saved the screencaps and story of how someone took out an Atlas with an infantry squad.

>>16680804

There are no barbarians in AD&D. Or did I miss something all those years?

Or were you just going old school as a flavourfull fighter?

>>16680849

Probably. I'm not to sure what the system was myself. The guy referred to it as 2e and had some really cliche sheets:

Male Halfling Rogue - Named Stab by the player
Male Elf Wizard - Named Rene by the player
Male Human Knight - Named Mallet Knight
Male Dorf (Prolly Fighter) - Named Smashy McBashMcDrinksalot

Whatever it was, it was still fun.

>>16680800

Roads and cliffs are a deathtrap in Battletech. I accidentally skidded one of my mechs off an eight level cliff. It survived the fall, but I think it died from an ammo explosion when it blew a PSR trying to get up.

>>16680849
Are you shitting me? There's awesome 1e and 2e versions of barbarians. The 1e is pretty much Conan: the Class, as opposed to 3e's shonen-style power of feelings barbarians or 4e's magical ones.

>>16680849

The fun part was that I was a drunk dorf that almost won combat by convincing a drake to drink with us.

My dwarf died -during- it. The drider wasn't especially okay with the idea, and s/he killed my dude right after he released the greek fire, so to speak. My DM wouldn't even tell me what gender it was, citing that my dwarf wouldn't know what either sex looks like, so he just went for whatever the closest hole was.

Turns out he gummed up the web spinners, which was a bit of a massive emotional blow to the monster and gave it penalties to staying focused on the battle, though understandably the (female) cleric was not willing to resurrect my dwarf.

Funny thing about this is you didn't even really need to roll for the damage, as every suit of Astartes power armor is nuclear-powered (this is how they're able to function indefinitely without charge). Just one exploding would be enough to send you into oblivion about sixty times.

Not the poster but if i was in that situation, and given that being the case I'd want to know just how badly I fucked everything up. I feel a catastrophe of that scale deserves some means of measurement.

We were playing in a game with a relatively new GM. She was using some sort of AD&D module and converting it for our pathfinder campaign. Over the course of the campaign we had tracked some criminals to the sewers underneath the city and were investigating in detail. Apparently we missed a spot check spectacularly and didn't notice that the tracks led into and then immediately out of the next chamber. We just saw them go in. So we enter the next chamber and this is the description we are given. "There are a number of logs floating in the pooled waters at the far end of the chamber. one of them is larger than the others." Ah. Alligators. We decide to do teh big one first and get it over with. Turns out it was a dire crocodile, we were level 2 at this point, and the module and the GM had expected us to leave rather than fight. Long story short over half of our party wound up in the croc's stomach and the others suffered heavy losses.

>>16681682
Just because something is nuclear powered doesn't mean it blows up in an explosion when it's breached. Even the Imperium isn't dumb enough to use armor that's going to take everything around it down when some chump gets lucky shot in.

Epilogue:

>Kord and Olidammara then exited the Sanctum and became overgods together, before any of the other gods figured out what had just happened.
>After taking power, they took our souls, wiped them clean, and reincarnated them - the Raider as a Goblin, and myself as a Half Elf.
>Our new L1 characters are growing up in a world where the overgods only have their position because of us, and we unknowingly have their favor.

Pic related, it's my face when I realized that we replaced Ao with Gork and Mork.

Kunninly brutal and brutally kunnin. But you two got turned into a grot and an eldar?

That's...

That's. Fucking. AWESOME.

Pretty much. We rolled randomly on the reincarnation table and that's what we got. We figured Olidammara must have been having a laugh at the raider's expense, and Kord just figured, human, half human, it's close enough, right?

3.5 D&D.

Lvl 15. I'm a swashbuckler/fighter/dervish.

One of the final BBEG's, a Balor, challenges me to one of one combat. I accept, thinking that I'm too much of a badass to lose(the character was like that)

Between lots of HP, fucking awesome rolls on my part(keen'd scimitars muahaha), shit rolls on Dm's side, and stupid number of attacks that dervish gets, I almost have him dead.

I have about 15%, and decide to use A Thousand Cuts, doubling my number of attacks. Then the Balor rolls a natural 20... Vorpal motherfucker.

Barbarian in my group rages, throws his spear, and deals min damage... Balor dies. Turns out that had I just rolled 1 higher on damage I'd have killed it.

That last bit is what makes this truly awesome.

From the post in question:

>Then the power packs on the Astartes armor gets breached. Goes off. Blows up.

In this case, the power packs DID detonate. Miniature nuclear holocausts everywhere.

I just can't see any way they'd allow a powerpack which would be taken into battle a chance to reach critical mass

Game: Exalted
Campaign: Return of the Scarlet Empress

Our Solar champions have fought their way across the east, from Halta to Rathess, claiming the First Age Titan buried in Mt. Metagalapa and uncovering the Warstrider Vengeful Thunder. My character, the Dawn champion named Tiger of the Breaking Dawn bears witness with his friends to the death of the unconquered Sun. While the others rage in their own way, he fails to acknowledge what he has seen. The sun WILL rise again, he tells them.

Together, they take their army across the inland sea to confront the Scarlet Empress and the Ebon Dragon. After an epic mass combat against the Scarlet Empress and her legion, Tiger's Sidereal nemesis/teacher takes his hand, pulls him out of the cockpit of his massvie war machine, and uses the power of the maidens to take Tiger's soul and use it to reignite the Sun.
Knowing how much he hated this particular sidereal, and the fact that he had finally met and fallen in love with his soulmate just the night before this epic battle, and seeing how his single minded force of will was enough to resurrect the dead sun made it the most epic death of a PC I've ever been involved in.
