Too Dumb to Live/Tabletop Games: Difference between revisions

** And the dwarves. If three dwarves manning a cannon are killed by ogres, do they find a small group of ogres and ambush them? No. They hold a massive pitched battle to avenge the grudges, then write down all the casualties ''of'' that battle ''in'' the Book of Grudges, to avenge ''next'' time. How well is this working? They're dying out. Essentially, it's natural selection in action.

** Declaring a constant war on the most powerful mages in the world, and the most skilled warriors (Elves, even if they are dying out), the most numerous enemies (Orcs), the toughest soldiers (Chaos) probably do not help the dwarves chance of lasting longer than a few years.

*** Becoming a submarine sailor is an alternative career for a Dwarf who would otherwise become a Slayer. Dwarves have a notorious fear of seas.

** The absolutely [[Ax Crazy|mad]] vampire Konrad von Carstein, although it is probably more of an example of being Too ''Insane'' to Live. This is the kind of guy who convicts his own mother for the crime of giving birth to him without his own permission.

* In ''[[Rifts]]'' there are aliens called the Arkhon, a race of (not proud) warriors. One particular clan has lost favor, and decides to redeem themselves by invading Earth. The reasoning behind this is that the Arkhons had attempted an invasion on Earth a few thousand years ago, and had gotten utterly routed by the magic of the Incan Empire. Basically, the plan was to go to a planet that had proven itself to be more than a match for them when said race thought bronze was the height of technology, and has presumably been advancing steadily ever since then, and try and take it over. Even ignoring the fact that the Arkhons didn't know about the [[Crapsack World|insanity]] that had happening on Earth over the last few hundred years, the Arkhons were more or less committing very elaborate suicide.

* On the [[Magic: The Gathering]] plane of Innistrad the vampires began to hate humans and without Sorin's intervention would have probably wiped them out, eventually. Humans are pretty much the only thing vampires can eat (aside from other vampires), and eating is not optional. Its not like they can leave Innistrad either because plane to plane travel is very restricted for non-planeswalkers (Sorin can come and go as he pleases though). Modern vampires often consider themselves saviors of humanity, although the narrative doesn't exactly agree.[http://archive.wizards.com/Magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/stf/167]
