Lidhuin Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 So, in honour of the many aliens who are absolutely horrible at shooting at point blank range and also in honour of my scout who just made an impossible shot, tell me your stories of your most unlikely shots that still hit their targets. I'll start with the following: In the above image, the dead sebillian got shot by the currently selected Xenonaut. What makes it a particularly impressive shot is that she only had 10 TU, so she couldn't turn in order to make a snap shot at the sebillian itself. Instead, I figured I'd just make a random snap shot and see what would happen. The square I've selected in the image is where I aimed the shot. She missed, the shot veered towards the sebillian and hit it dead on, killing it. So, despite not having the TU to do it, despite the 5% hit chance and enormous block chances, she still managed to land an almost impossible shot.

thixotrop Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Crashsite in industrial region. My rocketeer is taken by surprise and suppressed by a Sebillian which retreats into a large factory building, closing door behind him. My Rocketeer shoots its standard frag rocket onto the door, just to send him a going away present. The rocket missed the door but passes through a tiny window next to it exploding inside. No explosion visible but a scream. Ex-Sebillian, because no corpse found later. Sorry no picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbys Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Not so much my lucky shot but definitely a moment of "Oh thank God!". Sebillian rounds corner in front of one of my snipers. Literally 1-2 tiles away and manages to MISS EVERY SHOT. Sniper ran away and my heavy mowed it down but that was a "Oh Sh****t. Wait, Oh GOD YES" moment.

wcanyon Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Playing last night I did a plasma caster volley at an alien. Killed that alien _and_ the one behind him. Awesome. I think I actually targeted the one behind, which I will totally do from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar Pancakes Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Three reapers charged one of my Shield guys. Two were taken down immediately from the five others while the last nearly made it to eviscerate the unfortunate soul. And then he emptied his Laser pistol into it.
