Wing Commander Privateer, New Oxford system. Dogfight resulted in less than 5% hull, no shield (shield generator gone), no guns (all gone), 1 operational torpedo launcher with no warheads left, no radar/targeting/ITTS (can't remember which, maybe all), no propulsion (engine gone) except for afterburners (thrusters) and an old auto-repair bot which managed to repair the afterburner from busted to working condition. It's an "I spit, I die" situation. The mission? Freighter escort; that's why I don't like escort duties. The rewards? Storyline continued and a never ending satisfaction.
