Well, I say, to keep this forum alive I take this duty upon myself-----*is being killed by rotten tomatoes*

Alright. . . ., guys if you have a good or funny khaara tale do tell, or you will bleed.

Lets see.... ah yes...

Killing two marines as a Gorge by simply pegging them from a distance while one typed his message and then the other just tried to run in circles...

Four marines falling to my leet Fade with silence and not a shot fired.

Map : Ns_Hera

After quite a lengthy game of chasing marines out of 2 hives and double res we managed to peg them all the way back to marine start where they had setup base on the landing pad crates. By now aliens had 3 hives and I decided it was time to be l337 and get some parasite kills. I setup camp on the 'lork on the clorf!!!11' spot up on the mountain and began my parasite kill rampage. Needless to say 50 parasites later and no kills I'd had enough so I set myself up for a leap-xeno combo, I missed the ledge and ended up exploding underneath it, the blast however launched all the marines on the crates into the air where they fell to their death.

Ns_Tanith, 10vs10 Lerklift/Heal Armory/NS Arms Lab

10v10 is the bane of all khaara by the way.

Hive is Sat, (I hate starting in this hive!!!)

I go gorge under Chemical in that little vent system that leads you to double, made a DC and an OC.

Needless to say it never died, I killed 2 marines trying to crawl from double (relocated there they did) to get me, they finally did but now we had a 2nd hive that died, (this is a 41 minute game)

I went cara/celerity skulk, needless to say I got about 6 marine kills, 2 of them shotties. Vents and celerity mix well since I circled around marines devouring them as they try to turn around.

I finally died to a third shotty, whom died to my OC later.

I went onos, we got SCs and the hive died so we had all 3 upgrade chambers 1 hive\

I got lvl 1 cloaking and ate about 5 people that went into my mouth, kill about 8 others with gore.

When inevitably we died I almost got welded to death by a zealous clan member I ate 2 times, I then died.

Gorge Rush!

I don't remember which map it was. It had the hives at Maint, Comp COre and I think it was equil. But The match just started and someone says we ought to all go gorge. So after each of us had capped a rn we decided to play wiht the campin rines and we started to set up ocs outside of rine spawn. But no that wasn't good enough. we all rushed inside and surrounded the rine structures with ocs and about 5 minutes later aliens pwned with nothing but gorges...

Was a large game, ns_nothing

Marines had a pg up cargo side of via. This was the deciding point of who would win the game. They had cargo, we had power and via. Marines peaked there heads around the corner to the long overlook above the via hive. On the other side sat myself and a fellow clan member. We had about 3-4 dcs to our left (out of marine sight) and 2 mcs in the same spot. We became a gorge firing squad and got each about 5-6 spit kills. One marine tried to sneak behind us, but we already had a few ocs up that way and he was dispatched easily enough. This move won us the game b/c we kept losing onos and fades who were trying to take down the pg/tf and the marines couldn't break into the hive due to lerk spore, massive gorge spit, and the occasional onos and fade.

Overrall was a great great game.

Map: ns_bast

After a turning point in the game, the rines managed to get the upper hand. Being a keen gorge player myself, a few other gorges and I decided to make a chill-room in the underwater vent which came up to the one hive (keep forgetting names in this new map). So the ping of death began when the last hive went down and we all hid behind the dc's which were healing us from drowning and p.o.d. The rines scanned us, and the comm ordered his troops to swim down and take us out. Due to the long swim for them, they lost half their health on the way to us, and we finished off about 10, coming up behind the dc's and spitting. Com got angry and decided to spam health packs for the rines on the way down. Then they descovered their guns would not fire when they were in range. They all died again. The com, now very angry, threatened his rines, and tried it again with HP spamming, but this time they used their knives. It eventually took them 3 tries to finish us all off, but definitely one of the more 'entertaining' chillroom events I have ever experienced!

Map : ns_caged, small game.

We aliens were on the winning side, with the majority of the rts capped. I thought that, since we had the game in the bag, I'd have some fun. Outside central processing, in the hallway leading to marine start, I set up some ocs, dcs at the far end, away from their base. Then I went skulk, just to show them I can kill them easily. Bear in mind, they had a decent amount of res, so they had hmgs, jps, armslab upgrades.

So anyway, these two guys came along my corridor, armed with hmgs and jps, and I killed them several times over, as a plain old skulk. The comm, an experienced clan guy, remarked "Damn you chuckles, stop killing my (expensive) troops!". It was tremendously satisfying, killing upgraded marines as a lone skulk with silence.

Go the trousers

for future comms I will remind you all that the underwater route in bast has hallways around for SIEGES.
it helps.

*Overseers topic*

Hmmm!!!! Three replies that aren't stories. . . back to work snaga!!!


NS_(Forgot name, has Pipeline, Cargo, and another hive)

On this map I, the gorge, was 3:8 but get this.

I built 610 res worth of buildings at the end, I love the award system at the end of some plug-ins.

ns_caged, Generator hive room.

Marines lock it down (why?) and I am a Silence skulk. I hop in from Aux. Gen's direction. There's a large pipe that runs from the right side (looking in) of the room to the floor, under the bridge. You can stand on that as a marine and then crawl down. I clung at the top as a skulk and got parasite kills like mad as they walked out of the phase gate. MCs were in the exploit point and the Marines were determined not to leave until I was dead. When they moved out of vision, I'd parasite a structure and they'd shuffle again.

End of game total: 14 parasite kills.


[EDIT]: Oh, that wasn't exactly a Battle Gorge story, was it? Hrm.
Won five consecutive games with no skulks. Not a single marine bitten, not a structure parasited.. all healsprays and spit kills until the end. This wasn't just me, the entire Alien team. One guy went Fade and promptly died blinking into the pit in marine start (ns_nothing). Five. Games.

If that's not enough, I once got caught egging into a Gorge. Two heavies decided it'd be funny to knife me and I ended up leading them to a giant OC trap.. and promptly healspray killed them as they fled.

ns_veil

We had one hive left, and as the HA train approached cargo, our onos made it to marine start. With a blessing from the commander who didn't build another CC or beacon, the onos took their CC and most of their base before dying. At the hive they managed to kill all but 3 of the HA.

Meanwhile I was putting up sub sector, the 3 remaining Heavy armours made a long a pointless trip to check Pipeline (i guess... they went somewhere anyway) ... I went to marine start, spat the remains of the armoury (ahaha no ammo) and ran to pipeline. As the 3 remaining HA's used up all their ammo on sub, I put up pipeline. They came all the way back eventually to pipeline but it was 75% done, and i managed to hold the ammo-less HA back with my spit, killing one of them until the hive was built and we ended the funniest game ever.

I'm so glad my team didn't f4.. it must have been so tempting.

I've never seen anything like it and I doubt I ever will again...

a good gorge makes hideouts to survive hive attacks, not pingofdeath

Map: ns_eclipse

Now I heard some people think that 'chill-room'ing after the aliens hives have gone down is a pointless excercise, but I think most will agree that more of the amusing stuff happens at these times. Some of my best moments of glory happened in one such event:
Hives were going down and I decided to get my last few points on the board with a chillroom in the weldable vent by the end ramp at middle res. (This vent goes a short distance, opens up to a larger chamber leading up, then continues in the same direction as it lead in). So the rines were coming for me and two other skulks in this place with their MTracking. We sat still 'till the one skulk got restless and started moving around. To his surprise the other bit him to death (friendly fire, haha), as we always wanted to get the record for the longest chillroom hideout (mine was about 3 min). So in pops a heavy into the chamber, I was in the corner surrounded by two dc's, and on his way in to inspect, he jumped on top of me over the dc's without seeing, and shot the other skulk above him. Thinking the game was now over, he waited, but P.O.D. continued, while this n00b was sitting right on my head. It took him about 20 secs to eventually look down at his feet, and to my teams cries of laughter, almost died from my surprising spurts of spit! He obviously won in the end, and was feeling a bit blind and stupid after the whole embarrasing event for him

[By the way, what records does anyone here have for chillroom hideouts? (any stories?)]

End-game hiding?
ns_nothing

My team is pretty good, but we were outnumbered for a large portion of the game. We would have been pwned if the Marine comm wasn't a total idiot. I built a little MC+DC hideyhole in the vents on either side of Viaduct under the catwalk, NOT REDROOM. I'm chilling there while the marines run all over the place. Suddenly, they all start to die. Kill in console, I guess. They're all back at base and get jetpacks and are flying around doing stupid stuff. No one comes in to my position. We still have two nodes (WTH) and I manage to put the hive up. I don't know how they didn't see me on MT.

Long story short, hive goes up, we respawn, everyone walks towards the hive and sits there until the entire team is alive and they get Silence + Regen. Then we ran towards the Marine relocation in Cargo and ate their base. When the jetpackers came (he didn't drop them heavy weapons.. LMG jetpackers, BWAHAHAH!) they were demolished. Someone dropped Cargo in the middle of all of this so it was especially insulting.

o_O you could even put a whole hive up?

ok.. those rines and the comm where thus da n00b

More stories from me

map ns_eclipse

It was a fairly large game, and the aliens seemed to be beating the marines overall ( getting more res, pushing them back to marine start) until one guy, a deeply feared and respected admin who could literally turn the tide of a match joined the Marines. I was like, "bummer."

In a few minutes, perhaps due to the sheer presence of that guy, the Marines started to turn the tide again, and they suddenly turned out a HA train. My whole team went was quite helpless in stopping that, and we even lost two hives to the HA train. I decided to spend my 100 res to go onos to make a sneak attack behind their lines. While the HA team were marching to Maint, our last hive, I went Onos in triad.

Charging into the base, I survived the welcoming committee, took down the chair, phasegate, and the whole darned base. Just as i finished the last structures, our hive died. I thought, " dammit, wasn't I close". Then, like a knight in shining armor, my teammate informed me of a cloaked outpost near Marine start, and the important thing was that there were DCs there. So to keep a long story short, I stayed at the outpost and finished off the survivors who came looking for me. It was my most spectacular almost-singlehanded victory ever. I wont give credit to my team,just that guy because they f4ed before it was declared a victory.

Another one

map ns_nothing

This one is more on-topic. In one round, I was a gorge, and I had the second-highest kills on my team. This is how it happened. My team had taken most of the rts on our side of the map, and I simply was running around healing them. Then, we encountered some Marine aggresion in the generator area. I was concerned about defending that key part of the map, so I rushed over. While there, I managed to get 7 consecutive spit kills, holding off the marines. It was quite amusing to me, but probably disturbing to their commander. What could he expect of his troops if they couldn't even kill a darned gorge? Well, I ran around for a bit more, getting up close to the marines and mixing it around, until a guy who could actually aim shot me down.

Had a funny one today on Bast.

I wasn't there for all of if but what I know was that we started in ref, they relocated to aft, they took engine and feed. We got feed after a lengthy struggle, they kept trying rushes. Anyway's, they were attemptign a huge PG rush on Ref so I decided to rape their base as onos. I killed it and shortly after most of the rines went down. Then I saw them spawn. We had no SoF so no one could find them. I was the first to click on. First I thought they were in the bridge but they were at the bottom of the drill shaft, like 6 of them. I jump down and whack them all of the platform to their death. Then one knifes me and I fall off My team finished them off.

I remember this one game in ns_nothing(silo,via,cargo)

I hushed my whole team to take gorg and for my surprise it worked!


I was dying at laughter 7 gorg`s hop in marines base and every1 is ether spitting or healing in mad frenzy while oc`s pop up like mushrooms.

It was really hilarious because those towers came up so fast that the marine team had no time to response although they tried to rsuh it back, without anyhope while 7 gorges rummaged them with oc`s and mc`c (for adrn)

No one even died and all marines were complitely **** off for this abuse of gorge

Map: bast

Been losing hives for some time, but the marines never teched up. Then, after a the marine team attacking the hive with the alien team attacking Marine Start, none of the teams had any restowers. We did have 2 oni, but noone had enough res for a restower. We proceeded to get res for kills untill I managed to save for an rt (at the same moment one of the oni decided to go gorge to put up an rt...) By then the marines were way ahead of us though, so we unfortunately lost that round (

Wow. An onos going gorge to put up an rt. That is the most desperate move I've ever seen, and one of the most retarded.

Funniest gorge story.



Running away from 2 marines with hmg's and turning the wrong corner into a group of 6 marines with hmg/jetpacks


Not only did the other 2 marines catch up with me but i was severly whipped by all the marines..yes all 8 of them

owning a whole team minus one, blinking to hive on insane low hp, and exactly the route you take back, has that marine. and it wasn't even the direct route.
painfull pistolwhipped.

Getting 4 spit kills in a combat game 5 minutes into the game.


Enough said.

I remember a really fun game I had back in 2.01. Map was caged. Marines set up a base in double res, I think we started in sewer. The most interesting thing about the game is that neither team had much res. For the majority of the game, marines had 2 or 3 nodes, and aliens had 2 nodes. I think the highest number was 4 vs. 3 on nodes, so the game went pretty slowly. The interesting part is that instead of getting rt's or fades, our team got hives. At about 15 minutes into the game, we had 3 hives, 2 of each upgrade chamber, and had not had a single fade, onos, or lerk. Marines kept trying to siege Ventilation hive, but we used lots of xeno attacks to keep them away. We also had quite a few upgrade chambers in vent hive, but their sieges kept killing them, which is why we only had two of each. We finally manage to push them back and get some res, and we ended up winning.

Mutual kill:

A gorge and marine meet up unexpectedly. Spitting and shooting proceed as usual. Just as the marine kills the gorge, he fails to dodge the last spit that the gorge spat before he died, and kills him. A great laugh for both sides

gorgin to save a hive from a crazy jp/sg guy who is probably one of the best players on the server. he killed the hive and i put it straight back up as soon as he flew off. at this time my team was dead and i had regen, 2 dcs, 3 ocs and 1 or 2 rt's. as the hive was 1/2 complete, the guy came back and i had about 30res. as before he sg'ed it to death, but while he flew off, he got oc'd by me which left me with 33res. with no hive and that freeze thing goin, i slowly died and healed, but the dieing bit overwhelmed the healing. i could see my health declining and my res slowly increase at 39 res i was ready to drop the hive, but i miss clicked and the menu dissappeard. as i reopened it, i got 40 res but before i could select "hive" i died.

i mention this in the general discussion forum, but theres this guy that frequents the server i play on and he is pretty leet. while i was a marine chasing him as a gorge, he was b-hopping backwards while still managing to hit me with spit. in the end i gave up because i probably would have died

I always enjoy watching a cocky marine run past my OC towers to kill me, only to be taken down by my spit

i was got locked into a vent from both ends cos rines welded both ends... i gorged and made it so that any aliens walking past would become healed very quickly... when the aliens lost (cos they didnt have me! *cough*)i relised that i had made myself a little base, with dc,mc, and sc... i told my team to f4 and wait for 3 mins exacly until i f4.... marines didnt know where i was (mainly cos of sc's and silence from mc's)

i f4ed after a short while to stop myself from laming all game long... but dam it was funny when onos could do anything down my hallway... #

(btw i forget the map lol... maybe custom 1???)

ns_hera:
I hope this does not defeat the object of this post, but it actually happened with our whole rine team on one skulk, but it was funny anyways:
After a long game where we base-moved to double, we pwned the aliens but one had built a chill area on the rine start landing pad res, and had spammed 8 dc's there. We all had jetpacks and shotties, but we were too lazy to take down the dc's instead of finding the skulk, who had attached himself to the wall under the ramp. So we get all l33t and comm scans, and all 7 rines walk off the pad, thinking we could fly with our jetpacks at him and put him down. But (not a bug I think) as soon as we fell a little down and hit space to fly, we carried on falling, bringing up 7 trigger_hurt suicides in the console (*chuckle*).

Then some smart@@s got lucky and got a nick on him...

yeah,you gotta be jetpacking before you start falling

Funniest thing for me was on errr ns_nothing I think

Fade, blinking down from gen, away from 2 ha, turn left, aaaagh another 4 ha!!!

Turn around neoooom blink awayyy! not paying attention blink straight into another lone HA rambo, luckily blinked into the back of him, blinked up in the air and managed to blink onto his other side, where he shot me with his sg

ns_hera (again):
Ok just remembered this one...
We were aliens and we all gave the rines a run for their res. They based moved several times, and they then moved down to the rine start landing pad res, and had reinforced the area with lots of sentries. They all parked on top of the boxes there, and any attampt to each them was suicide. Then some1 on our team suggested that we all go onos, and sure enough, we had about 5 - 6 of them. Then we waited outside, and took turns making our way down the ramp, slowly taking sentry for sentry. When everything was gone, It was just the rines on the boxes, who thought they were l33t and stood out of harms way. Then were descoved that devour could snag them through the boxes a bit, so we all stormed down there and everyone ate a marine. Then to end it off, we all jumped off the pad to our merry deaths, ending up with everyone dead!

Nice old thread tbh

AHAHAHA I can just imagine all of the Onoses devouring all of the marines then jumping into the pit, dieing, freeing the marine, then he dies too.

once on ns_origin, all the aliens agreed to lgo to the large vent lump thing next to marine start, and make an after hive room. Anyway, we used yhis tactic, 2 gfames previously, so the comm hjust rushed our hive with shotguns, not even buildinga an ip. Anyway, in our secret base place, the dcs were keeping us alive form teh ping o' doom.

About 3 minutes later, a skulk said that the comm still hadn't built an ip, so we all went skulk and rushed his base, killing stuff, then coming back to the wall nearest the room to heal.

about 20 seconds later a steady trickle of single marines came throught the door, 1 after another, about 15 seconds apart, wheron they were all promptly dev oured by a pack of skulks.,

And so it was on that fateful day, that the aliens team won with no hives.

co_(something, i cant remember)

i had entered the game late and so i was just a lowly skulk when the rines had lvl 7-10.

i just got out of the hive room and ran behind some shelves to avoid fire b/c the rines right in the room.

after i finish cloaking, a HA-HMG comes in my little hiding place. i figure: what the heck, im not going to kill anything anyways" (me being lvl 3 at the time)

so i focus bite him once and he starts firing. i run up a wall around him and then bite him again. (all the while hes still firing) and then i run up the shelf and then plop down and bite him for the kill.

LOL, a skulk killing a HA-HMG? he only had to keep on me for a second and i would've been toast.

shortly after we lost the game because of all the rines outside the hiveroom before i killed the HA.
