** Londo noted how the humans, during the Earth-Minbari war, knew they were doomed because of their lesser technology, but fought back even more strongly after every defeat. He was quite impressed. Ironically, humanity was saved when The Minbari surrendered, which baffled everyone ( {{spoiler|they had discovered that each race was carrying some of the other's DNA--their races had crossed 1,000 years ago, as is revealed in season 3}}).
* [[Battlestar Galactica (2004 TV series)|The re-imagined series of ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined]]'']], in the finale {{spoiler|the titular ship can't last longer in space, so rather than going to be scavenged for parts, Adama decides to bring her in a final ultimate full-on assault on the Cylon's frakking headquarter with the sole mission objective of saving a little girl. [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|It worked]].}}
* The Brunnen-G of ''[[Lexx]]'' were doomed to die at the hands of His Divine Shadow. While the older generation of Brunnen-G welcomed their inevitable death due to being weary of their immortal existence, a few of the younger ones led by Kai refused to die lying down. Their brave but futile assault is shown in the very beginning of the series and is later re-enacted in the [[Musical Episode]] "Brigadoom".
