During my "Lets Play" series of cogmind, I ran into an interesting scenario that made for an awesome experience.
Ladies and Gentleman I present to you "A most glorious battle!"

I think my alert level payed the price for the amount of destruction I caused. But it was totally worth it. 8)
That is wonderful subversive! :P
The view is great too, because it shows the battle played out, which when I've watched some Let's Plays it's not immediately clear to me as a roguelike novice and someone who has not played cogmind "how the battle/combat is playing out"; though I can clearly see a wealth of decisions and modifications can be made to any decisions being taken by the players.
Dang, getting tempted by the day to grab this...
