X-Com

[Orion]

I had three characters who were reasonably ranked early in the game, but two (a heavy and assault) were injured and had to wait a week or so to heal, leaving my only other ranked character (a support) to lead a bunch of rookies on my first saving civilian run. Was doing pretty well until a floater attacked my support from above, dealing a critical hit and critically wounding him in ONE SHOT, even though he had full health. The kicker was that he was the only team member with any medikits, so I got to watch my second strongest character bleed out because of all that bullshit coming together at just the right time.

EDIT: And yet there's something very entertaining about it all.
