Favorite Kill

Well one of the players in our group was proud of killing someone with a fire hydrant in another game... And he commented that would be tough to over come.

Well not sure if this kill would be spectacula however in our Coalition campaign a Kreegor and some flunkies crashed on earth, and our team had to stop em. I dropped down on top of the ship, buried in the ground... and since our team is undercover I was in a wild weale (sp?) I reach through the hatch and planted a heavy fusion block to the kreggor's ass, luckily he had a shiled so our GM said it contained the blast... Maybe not creative nut funny.

So any kills you guys are proud of?

I've never successfully killed any supernatural being in the Game of Rifts. They always get away somehow and I never can find them again. :-(

Our group killed a Bal-rog... our plan, decided between the two nightbane in the group?: "You hold down the bal-rog and I'll get him... Ready?"
*Nods*
"GO!"

1 hour (out of game time) of melee (about 5 rounds in game) later we decapitated him with about 5 successive hacks to the neck with the chainsaw hands of the other nightbane and a natural 20 from the psi-sword of the mind melter as my nightbane restrained him with webbing over the face to blind him and my 8 legs restraining his limbs and wings.

The diabolist made a killing off of the bones and the permanance wards he made out of them, plus we had a pretty well intact bal-rog head as a trophy!

Once had a titan juicer beat a CS grunt to death with another grunt.

My archer, Basil, was shooting vamps with arrows when one charged in for melee.
Basil managed to stake the incoming vamp with his (indestructable) longbow.

In a Robotech game, killed a Zentraedi re-entry pod with a volley of proton torpedoes.

Called shot on the engines and a Nat-20 later the pod and all the TBPs in it fall to the ground from 25 miles up.*boom*

GM just stared at me with an expression of astonishment and frustration. :lol:

A good ways back I had a character kill a goon in Bushman body armor with nothing more than an SDC bowie knife! "How" you may ask? I talked the GM into believing that though his armor was MDC, the straps that held it together and on the goon's person were SDC, thus allowing me to cut it off.

I don't think I could get away with that today.

Well, its not Palladium...but we were playing a fantasy game that will not be mentioned...

Anyway, there was a ritual going on and in order to stop it, we had to destroy a crystal ball. This would have been the climax scene of any movie. My buddy had one arrow left and he walked into the room filled with undead. He pulled back the bow...rolled...natural 20! We all exploded in cheer and the GM decided the crystal ball shattered and the ritual was stopped.

Then we had to deal with hordes of undead though...I lost one of my chracters that night

I was GMing, this was back in High School so it happened about 10 years ago, a anti-vampire Rifts game that had a Ley Line Walker, a Were-Panther, and a Undead Slayer.

After a vicious and grueling fight the LL Walker was dead, the Were-Panther was out cold, and the Undead Slayer had been blinded (eyes clawed out). Luckily for them there was only one vamp left, unluckily for them it was the Master. As the GM I thought that the Master was the type of creature that would enjoy playing with its food, especially when he had them at such a disadvantage. During the Master's mocking monolouge (sp?) the blinded Undead Slayer announce that she can't stand to listen to the pompous jerk any longer and attempts to stake him. Of course as GM I don't think the player has a chance (especially since the penalties for blindness are -9 to strike/parry/dodge with no bonuses included). To the groups surprise the player rolled a natural twenty (an automatic success) and the Master rolled a natural 1 (an automatic failure according to the palladium rules)! It is the one gaming event that is still mentioned when we get together all these years later.

my favorite has got to be when there were us four vagabonds vs 1 secondary vampire. One of us drove a van into him from behind and pinned him to a wall. then the other three of us tried to cut off his head or throw water at him. (we didn't have any lores and found out water hurt him and hoped beheading him would work.)

My favorite kill was when my Biform Orca was roaming around with the group and we came across an Hydra. It wasn't adult but it attacked, so my Biform Killer Whale beat it too death with his bare hands.

Had a character who was a deomolitions expert and the team was assigned to take out a factory - we half snuck / half fought our way in, wired the place, fought our way out . .. we get clear of the structure and my demolitions guy reaches into his pocket and pulls out what looks like the remote locking key fob from a car, he presses the button - the "woop-woop" car locking noise is heard and then the building gets blown all to hell.

The other players were looking at me trying to figure out if that was the coolest or lamest move ever.

Pack of vampires with their boss(master vampire) in a mine shaft...with a Water Elemental....

The expression on the bloodsucker superior's face just moments before he and his pack got 'the straight flush' was priceless....

And in a Phaseworld campaign I had to take over another player's character in mid-game, so while I struggled to become familiar with the felinoid PC, the joke was that the character in question had gotten drunk and wasn't acting like himself....almost immediately the group got into a running gunfight with pursuing bandits while I'm still struggling to make out the annotation on the guy's gamesheet while the PC is staggering out into the street and into bumper-to-bumper traffic....I have the presence of mind to pull my gun out and slump behind a grounded vehicle and absently toss off a shot to keep the pursuers' heads down...Natural 20....Boom, the guy's head explodes....the rest of the gang goes to ground and trades shots with the rest of the party with little in the way of results...I pull off another shot....another natural 20...another head explodes......By this time the rest of the party's looking at me....My appropriated PC staggers up and fires again....ANOTHER critical hit!....THird ganger goes down sans skull....the gang finally freaks and runs....The rest of the party looks at me in goggle-eyed astonishment at this drunken marksmanship...

I have NEVER rolled so well since...
