* ''Fanfic/MetalGearGreen'': The MSF forces doing clean-up in Africa are attacked and besieged by the Tyrant's forces and cut off from all forms of supply and reinforcements. It isn't until they seize an airport and the Tyrant's forces began to crack apart after his death could supplies come in, for both them and the refugees they were protecting.

* ''VideoGame/CompanyOfHeroes'': Befitting historical inspiration, 101st Airborne units start out in the campaign airdropping behind German lines in Vierville-sur-Mer and fighting in Carenten to open up the roads and link up to Omaha Beach's D-Day landings. This trope is even referenced by selecting an Airborne unit engaged in heavy combat:

Jimmy Patterson's and Manon Batiste's missions take place deep within German or German-occupied territories, with both of them being heavily outnumbered and outgunned each and every time. Their objectives usually revolve around sabotage, espionage, and the gathering of vital enemy intelligence.

** ''VideoGame/MedalOfHonotFrontline'': Most of Lt. Jimmy Patterson's missions following the first level are set deep behind German lines, from Occupied France, to the Occupied Netherlands, with the penultimate levels being set deep within Germany itself. Oftentimes, Patterson's only allies are either a handful of Paratroopers or members of the French and Dutch Resistance, providing him with weapons, ammunition, vital intelligence, and even first aid.

** ''VideoGame/MedalOfHonorAlliedAssault'': In the base game, the vast majority of the levels have Lt. Powell, a {{Ranger}} and OSS agent, deployed deep behind German lines, often with the task of stealing or sabotaging German intelligence or equipment. At one point, he's even assisted by [[LaResistance Manon's Resistance cell]] during a mission in France.
** Similarly, in the ''Spearhead'' expansion, due to Barnes being a paratrooper and later an OSS agent, he's often tasked with accomplishing his objectives while being outnumbered and outgunned. The two aversions to these are during the second and third Bastogne levels, where he fights in or near American lines.
** In the ''Breakthrough'' expansion, Baker is forced into this situation quite a few times, with the most notable cases being the raid on Bizerte, landings at Gela, the Battle of Monte Cassino, and finally at Anzio.

* ''VideoGame/BloodyWolf'' have your commando being assigned to rescue the President and evacuate him from enemy territory, which happens ''halfway'' into the game. Then the rescue chopper arrives, but it turns out there's only one extra seat available, so your commando allows himself to be taken by the enemy while the President leaves. Cue the second part of the game, the second commando trying to extract the first.
