Coming in for my [ULTIMATE] Pacifism Run!

Postby precursormar » Mon Dec 14, 2015 12:56 pm

A while back I got the 'pacifism run' achievement . . . and then just kept the run going.

I managed to make it all the way to the flagship on normal difficulty without firing at or destroying a single enemy ship. :)

You can get all of the details of the run's story in this imgur album I made at the time.

Did you kill the Flagship?

Look at the album. It didn't end well for the peace envoy.

Oh... yeah... I forgot that dual lasers and other smaller weapons won't get the message through the Flagship's thick skull.

It was a noble attempt to peacefully end the war.

And it might have worked if you had Captain's Edition where there is such an option with the Zoltan Shield. Although you'd need maxed-out basic systems.
