Line 564:
=== Film ===
* ''[[Executive Decision]]'' is essentially an Escort Mission in which the commando team has to escort Cahill and Matheny onto the plane to defuse the bomb.
* At one point in the ''[[Resident Evil]]'' arc of ''[[The Secret Return of Alex Mack]]'', Klar gripes to himself about hating escort missions when his assignment to get Jill Valentine out of the Spencer Mansion runs into a few snags.
=== Literature ===
Line 572 ⟶ 574:
** The follow-up series, ''[[The Heritage of Shannara]]'', had at least one of these also: the plot of ''[[The Druid of Shannara]]'' was essentially an escort mission in which Walker Boh, Morgan Leah, [[Token Evil Teammate|Pe Ell]], and Horner Dees had to escort Quickening to Eldwist, lair of the Stone King. A little different in that, once there, they also had to find a way to defeat the Stone King. To put it bluntly, Terry Brooks really liked this plot.
===
* Subverted in the ''[[Paranoia (game)|Paranoia]]'' adventure ''Me and My Shadow, Mark IV'', where the players have to escort an enormous cybernetic combat tank. The problem the players face is not so much to protect Mark IV as to keep themselves from being crushed between various potent assaults and Mark IV's [[Nigh Invulnerability]].
=== Web Comics ===
* ''[[Head Trip]]'' advise of the week: "[http://headtrip.keenspot.com/d/20130121.html How to make a gamer <'''Twitch'''> with Malory]".
