"Alright you Primitive Screwheads, listen up! You see this? This... is my boomstick! The twelve-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about a hundred and nine, ninety five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You got that? - Ash in Army of Darkness


I only opened this thread to see how quickly somebody would reference the Tick. I'm half-glad and half-disappointed to see it took all of one post.

Good job, everybody!

When we were kids my best friend used to shout out "Stoker Ace is a chicken!"

My battle cry back in those days was "Help me, Spock!"


"Whenever i see a world untouched by war, a world of innocence, a world of lush forests and clear rivers... i really just want to nuke the c*^& out of it!" unnamed ghost, starcraft 2

"Good for the good god!"


"SPOON!"

or

"Blood and Souls for my Lord Arioch!"

The greatest battle cry I've ever personally used was in WoW. I macroed it so that whenever I cast "Bloodlust" (a huge short-term buff), I would yell:

"Denny Crane."

The guildies loved it, and called for it by name.

EDIT: Linkified for the unenlightened.

Minsc has the best ones.

Playing Mutants and Masterminds let's you growl: "I'm Batman!" constantly.


I like the Almogavars:

AUR! AUR! DESPARTA FERRA!!

they would shout this while clashing weapons or striking rocks at night. The resulting sparks would show up in the hills and scare the S&*% out of people.....

It translates as Listen Listen the Iron Awakes!

Ninja'd or in this case Tick'd.


When attacked by ogrillons in Baldur's Gate, you would know you were about to meet your doom hearing this:

"You mess with me, you mess with you!"

SSSSSSTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNN!

...I started Roleplaying a few years ago, around the time when Dragon Age came out. My first character was an Elven Wizard (Conjuration specialist) named Ritzkar who LOVED to summon Earth Elementals.
At one point in a heated battle, it became clear that we desperately needed another solid tank on the field or we were going to be overrun.
Just as the horde prepared to swarm us, Ritzkar's turn came back around, and he/I simply yelled STEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNN!
The Earth Elemental charged out from the rift and immediately crit'd the big guy, dropping him and instantly reversing the tide of battle.
After the cheers and laughter subsided, we decided that he was the one each time Ritzkar summons the largest Elemental he can.

For Context.
The whole video is awesome, but 1:00 is the relevant part.

"You mess with me, You mess with Boo." Boo was the hampster he talked to because he thought it was a super-badass planar creature of some kind. He wasn.t the smartest barbarian.

Nope. You're wrong. That line was said by the ogrillons you encounter in the wilds, not by Minsc.

You might be right. I havent played that game in years.

Before Denny Crane, there was this.

I was a Baldur's Gate fanatic. Still have the discs, though I haven't played them in a while. I remember the ogrillons specifically because they were even tougher than regular ogres and I dreaded running into them at low levels.

But speaking of favorite BG characters and battlecries:

"You are but grease stains on the wheel of time compared to Tiax!"

My favorite of the BG quotes actually goes to Jaheira:

"Die, foul creature, and feed the earth!"

Though I also remember Aerie's "I'll hurt you if I have to!" and Viconia's "Lil-alure! For Shar!" Or something like that.

I was wondering when this one would come up. Thank you TOZ for this most important inclusion!

It's kind of a crossover post, but...

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

ERIN GO BRAGH!

I'm sure I spelled that wrong. Also, that is meant as support for Ireland in general, not the IRA, who I highly disagree with on the basis that the Republic of Ireland has no rightful claim to the North.


"WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE"!

"If there can be no victory, then I will fight forever."
- Koth of the Hammer

"Ach! Hans, run, it's the lhurgoyf!"
- Saffi Eriksdotter


Not exactly a cry, but... KA-CLICK! (Link to the first instance of it; there are many, many more.)

Then of course there's The March of Cambreadth, but in that case it's really the whole song that's an awesome battle cry. Perfect for the bard using Inspire Courage.

Oddly, the closest thing to a real battle cry that comes to mind (except Mark Hamill's delivery of the line too calm to really qualify) is from Wing Commander IV: "All pilots, weapons free. Break formation and engage the enemy."
