180	->When [[SinisterCar the evil engine]] finally gives out, you need to move quickly to make sure it stays dead for good. First, crush it. This will require speed, since the car might be trying to repair itself. If you don't have access to a junkyard compactor, drag it to the bottom of a hill and roll a boulder onto it. Or take it to the woods and cut a sequoia down to fall on it. Or park it on some train tracks. Be as creative as you want, but work fast.

226
227	->What is victory? Is it to defeat your enemy on the field of battle? Is it to simply repulse his armies and slay his misguided warriors? No, this is only the beginning!\
228	True victory is to crush your foe utterly, to shatter his armoured legions and run down his fleeing troops as they scatter. Pursue them to their lairs and burn them out. Burst into his unholy temples, smash down his icons and topple his foul idols. Burn his heretical works and leave no stone upon stone. Slaughter his followers, their families and their livestock lest any of their taint remain. And when that is done, put the ruins to the torch.\
229	[[RevengeByProxy Any that have dealt with them or given them succour must be obliterated]], for memory is insidious and though you have crushed their will and their bodies they may yet return.

232
233	->When new, experimental technology proves to be wildly successful as a weapon, the most natural progression is to then build the biggest gun one can possibly make out of it. The simply named "Linear Rail Accelerator Cannon" is just that; a heavy weapons platform borne out of mankind's instinctive desire to push the limits of practicality in the name of overkill.

261	7. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.\
262	10. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.\

268
269	->Another [nuke] targets the city itself: high-energy x-rays are absorbed by nearby atoms, then emitted with less energy to be absorbed again and so on and so on, creating an expanding sphere of nearly-uniform high-temperature air, which is ultimately responsible for the blast wave that contains the majority of the damage. While close to the bomb, the temperature is magnitudes above that of the surface of the sun; there's not much thermal energy far from the blast point, but because the blast destroys things, buildings and the like are reduced to kindling that can be easily ignited, leading to gigantic firestorms. Various forms of radiation are released: the aforementioned gamma rays, and also high-energy neutrons, with other kinds released but inconsequential until the fallout takes place. Any three can kill in small amounts. These are all being done in overkill so excessive, it'd be funny if it wasn't so sad: this is like killing a daddy long-legs with a stick of dynamite.

I'm mostly glad that he gets turned into string cheese and then he gets his head exploded.

And to maximize the funniness level, we have the [[LaserSword Crucible]], which is a direct, instantaneous kill on every enemy. [[EliteMooks Giant area boss]]? Dead. [[DegradedBoss Previous area boss]]? Dead. [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever The final boss]]? Fuck 'em. Now I hear you thinking, Josh, "That sounds pretty strong." Oh boy, buckle your ass, because the second superweapon on my [[OverlyNarrowSuperlative extensive list of two things]] is the {{BFG}}, which canonically stands for "'''[=BiG fUcKiNg GuN=]'''" Also canonically, [[EarthShatteringKaboom it fires a hole directly into the core of Mars]].

Also yes, I do know that tyrants aren't "bosses" and I don't want to mention the Unmakyr. I say things that are hyperbolic, fast, and funny for the sake of entertainment and the emphasis isn't on direct accuracy, which could slow me down and make the video unfun. I cut an entire 20 second clip where I talk about how the Icon of Sin is positioned out of melee range so you can't just use the crucible on it immediately, since I found that RIDICULOUSLY boring and slow.[[/labelnote]] ''I am so thankful that the game limits how many times you can do this.''"
