* Fairly common among the Imperial Guard of ''[[Warhammer 40000]]''. When they're not being executed for cowardice, that is.
** ''[[Only War]]'', naturally, has several variations of this. Ranging from the Sergeant's Sweeping Order "Snap Out of It!" (shouts at all subordinates within communication range and if does it right, [[Standard Status Effects|Pinning or Fear effects]] on them end, so they may act normally from the next turn), and up to Summary Execution by the Commissar that motivates the rest. Plus several [[Bottled Resolve|combat drugs]].
* The Player's Handbook 3 for ''[[Dungeons and Dragons]]'' 4th Edition includes Skill Powers, such as "Snap Out of it", which is pretty much this trope.
