->''The capital ships of Species 5 have very powerful defensive screens that make them almost invulnerable to our attacks. We believe that the only way to defeat this enemy is to ram them with our ships until they are destroyed.''
-->--'''Imperial Icon''', ''TabletopGame/StrikeLegion''

->'''Narrator:''' When ramming an enemy, the captain is required to shout something useless at the top of his lungs.\\
'''Ore Freighter Captain:''' RAMMING SPEED!\\
'''Narrator:''' This is silly because technically you can ram at any speed. It would make more sense to announce an actual speed, using units of measure, appropriate to the amount of damage you wish to inflict. Shouting "Ramming speed!" only serves to alert everyone on deck to the impending event, allowing them to assume crash positions or otherwise brace for impact. This of course renders the next mandatory shouted command redundant at best.\\

->Then, at a speed that defies the imagination, [[Comicbook/{{Supergirl}} the Girl of Steel]] strikes the gargantuan satellite — punches through it like a bullet through a snowball — and her velocity undiminished, hurtles onward, to be swiftly swallowed once more by the void!

->She pushed herself off of nothingness, and speeded towards one of those moons, quickly passing light velocity several times over. Satan Girl kept picking up speed, her arms crossed before her face. The white, crater-pocked surface loomed before her, filling her range of vision.\\
She hit it.\\
There would have been a tremendous boom, if the moon had had an atmosphere. But it did not, and there was only silence and an awesome impact of body with lunar matter.\\
Satan Girl had struck the moon at an angle to spin it free of its orbit. She ricocheted away from it, unharmed.

->The primary rule of vehicular combat is: ''You can always ram''.

->When all else fails, when the weapon systems are offline, when the computer is dead, when the engine is half-crippled, as long as you can move at all, you can still heave about and crash into your opponent.

->In fact, even if your vehicle is totally immobile, a suitably clever player will ''still'' find a way to ram it into an enemy vessel.
