Awesome Action Moments!!

[CriticalSlide]

Have you ever experienced hand to hand combat overkills, epic ship batteling and generally a good combination of weapons? Well then you are right here! Tell me all about your FTL playthroughs, which should be in an action movie...

I'll start with what I just experienced. So I went along in the slug homeworlds with my five-hullpoint-stealth cruiser "The Mockingbird" (the worst sector you could visit in such a scenario) and came across a slug with three shields and a set of OP weapons clearly destined to overpower me. After Some fighting which my powered up defences could get away with, I realised my weapons woudn't be strong enough to make some severe damage. All I had that round was a duel laser, heavy laser I and a mini beam. Pathetic. Anyway I first thought of teleporting a single human crew member onto the bad guys, and without further thinking did so. My crewmember I called Arnold because he really was one. With 20 kills he was pretty much the best border I ever had...anyway I killed a n00bie slug after 10 seconds until my weapons finally came through the shield and wrecked the whole ship. It completely ignited into fire but I first couldn't see because it was a nebula sector and my level two sensor didn't work out. I ran through all of the rooms until because of the fire damage they only had one hull point left. Now this was a problem, because my teleporter needed some other 3 cycles to recharge. After my further investigation in the ship I came across the oxygen room which was on fire and all ready had one damage. I thought this was the end for Arnold but I really didn't want to lose him...I had already previously lost a nice boarder and so things became serious. But then...out of nowhere...Arnold switched to awesome action mode and burst through the rooms to find and kill the remaining slug. This indeed immediately recharged my teleporter and on the INSTANT I teleported him off the room the whole ship ripped apart and fire balls shot out. I was just happy. Arnold had continued his streak to 22 kills and I got a nice scrap reward.

But whatever he died in the next sector. R.I.P Arnold
