Basically every single mission in this game. Even on the rare occasion that the EDF launches an offensive operation, it normally turns into a brutal last stand ending in tactical retreats.

>>265694106

There are no tactical retreats in last stands.

The Alamo and the Battle of Thermopylae didn't have "tactical retreats". They all got killed.

>>265694106
I want to agree with you but after playing it I really can't.

They're never dire because you and your friend(s) are there and worth literally the entire NPC army and more.

As bad as the voice actors make it sound, it just doesn't feel dire when it's like OH NO THE DRAGON WIPED OUT SQUAD 2, then you kill the dragon in 15 seconds.

>>265694106
You do realize a "Last Stand" implies there will be no retreating right?
Kinda implied in the "Last" part

Technically the entire game counts as a desperate last stand since humanity has no way to escape the ravager attacks. their only option is to desperately try to fight an opponent that in all honesty would be impossible to defeat without the help of player characters. Even with the defeat of the earth eater, humanity is still fucked due to its massive losses, the impossibility of completely removing the giant insect infestation, and the eventual return of even more powerful ravagers.

I remember playing this as Rohan as well, but I eventually quit after getting tired of having to chase down about 100 Wargs that were running a muck with their masters dead. Did they fix that shit or do you still have to chase them after every battle for 30 minutes?

You do have to chase them, it's part of their unit behaviour, they are piss weak as a mounted unit but actually cause trouble. That's why you kill the mountm not the rider.

SupCom. Fucking SupCom. Both SP and MP actually, campaign in Forged Alliance had a couple of missions that threw a lot of shit at you, but nothing beats FAF group MP for that, with the 500 cap limit fixed and put up into the thousands. I'll always remember a random 3v3 where both my teammates got taken out and it was just me with ludicrous waves of units coming in. I lost unsurprisingly but I was playing cybran and managed to fight a battle of attrition and delay barely long enough to pull off a telemaser and at least take one of the others with me.

Try telling my AI army that. I had learned after like the third battle to put my fucking lance right into the Wargs and let my riders mop the fallen riders up, but fuck the AI never seemed to understand that. Every battle would last an hour just because we had to chase the fuckers down all day.

Looking around and realizing your entire army is dead and it's just you

When I was still playing GW2 I would very frequently be the only one left alive in a wide variety of situations, and I would either have to revive everyone or down the boss myself. I didn't fail very often, Guardian 2gud
Same thing in PvP when I was a bunker, stopping 3 or 4 people from capping a point made me feel like a fucking hero.

I should be a bit more honest.

It still is only 20 units against 20, but it was a never ending stream off reinforcements when some would rout. As such it took a long time to finish and the processing of bodies on the ground, damage to buildings, other calculations, etc. left the game a bit laggy towards the end.

I get this a lot in Mount and Blade, especially with this one mod (Floris?) that causes bandits to group up. Best feeling I ever had was winning a 100 v 1000 situation, it was insane. Dust being kicked up everywhere by charging cavalry, bodies piling up all over the place.

The name you're looking for is olag-hai there bud

Bioshock 2's endfight, if only it was a bit more difficult.

You are cornered in a room, can not retreat and tons of enemies are coming in and trying to attack you. I didn't really appreciate it at first because I was hoping for a proper boss fight, but this was actually better than the Atlas fight in 1.

>>265698898
It still has bugs all over the fucking place, though. It is still the best LotR experience you can get in any game even to this day. Play a Rohan campaign faggot, you won't regret it.

>>265698885
Aww shit is that sum heavenly sword??

muh nigga, that game did not deserve the hate it got. Even today the visuals hold up pretty well, and the story is great.

The gameplay does feel a bit rusted tho.

I was being ironic, posting a screenshot demonstrating that the game is still broken in some aspects. In this case I was able to hold off a naval assault simply by circling the enemy ships until the timer ran out.

It's pretty much playable now though, just not very good.

>>265699819
Everybody knows all the spartans died on reach. Its one of the main plot points of the last three games. Hence master chief being the only spartan.

>no mention of AI War
You are the last of the human resistance against an AI that is stronger and smarter than you at all times, fights are 1:100 at best, many things you do will bring down the AI's terrible wrath upon you, with some game options making them send absolutely everything they have against you. This game isn't about seeing how humanity triumphed over the AI, but how they became extinct.

I had a similar situation back in Medieval: Total War (the first one).

I was playing as the Byzantine Empire. Mongols invaded with thousands of heavy cavalry (three or four full armies). The very first region they invaded I just happened to have a fully stacked army of Byzantine Infantry (the "filler" unit of the Byzantines in that game).

The battle map was heavily forested, luckily. My rank-and-file non-professional army wiped the floor with the Mongol horde. I think I had around 300 survivors. The enemy lost thousands of elite cavalry.

It started out as a mod anyway then Tripwire helped out. Who cares?

I can't remember its name or the context but there's a mission in AoE3 where you fight off an unstoppable army of Russians. I think you're meant to blow up mountain passes or something but I used to just try and hold out for as long as possible.
