True form, 75 mm cannon. Rolled SAN, failed, rolled 1d100 and lost 3 points. My PC was a soldier, there was a cannon nearby, lucky shot.

CoC, of course

In Rappan Athuk on the first level is a mimic that is supposed to be undefeatable.  We had used some clay earlier to scoop up Green Slime.  When we found out what a badass it was, we got it in a pit and shot Green Slime arrows at it.  In short order it was turned into a giant quivering mass of Green Slime.  Since it was supposed to be 'undefeatable', we were really proud.  

I ran the adventure later as a DM, but other than the DM telling us we weren't supposed to be able to beat it, we didn't really have any way of knowing.

Story from just the other day. Probably not in my top 5 in terms in actual power, but it was a pretty cool takedown.

The adventure takes place in Port Blacksand, on the world of Titan. (Remember all those Fighting Fantasy books? That world.) We're in an underground temple fighting an evil shade who used to be the high priest of the God of Time and his cultists. There's a gate in the back leading to the same location but in the distant path, disgorging Spikefists, great suits of animated armour that hit incredibly hard and are just impervious to anything our 3-4th level characters can bring to bear. Luckily, they're not directly controlled by the shade, they just go upstairs and into the city streets to kill all goblins, orcs and trolls (City Guard included) according to their original programming.

The shade is just dominating the fight, throwing Paralysation, Command and something that does lots of HP damage ever round. All the party members are either paralysed, thrown through the time gate and out of the fight, or rendered useless as they try to fight the magical compulsions. Everyone, except for my Illusionist who's recently turned into an unconspicuous 7 year old boy and is now hiding in a panicked throng.

While the others are managing to accomplish nothing, I cast the illusion of a troll, place it so it "covers" the hovering shade, and have it issue a challenge to the Spikefist in the room. Over the course of a few rounds, the armour makes its way over there, targets the "troll", and utterly destroys the high-level shade with two brutal smashes.

Yay, illusionists!

My players nuked an aberrated "Crown of Corellon" ship full of aberrated elves and other abominations. Characters' level was abouth 8th, even if they were GREATLY pimped up with spells and magic items. It was the SpecOps action from hell of the decade.

I seem to recall that when I was like 12, a D&D group I was playing in managed to kill a tarrasque. It probably wasn't strictly true to the rules, I'd imagine.

Dunno really, I've Gm'd for 95% of my RPGing life (at least).

I played Call of Cthulhu recently, We killed a Dark young of Shub Niggurath. It was also a TPK, but we took it with us!

In our 4E game we just wrapped up, the last three sessions featured the slaying of three major antagonists, one in each.

First was the unnamed reborn phaerimm master. Straight after that (or rather without a proper rest, because time was against us) we then took out an efreet mercenary-mage, the Beylerbeyi Safiye Brightflame. Then lastly an ancient frost giant called the Icefather, a major league priest of Auril.

All to keep Icewind Dale safe.

There's that one time we were level 1 at Rolemaster and took a whole keep by just rousing up the populace to help us and basically take the whole thing by surprise. That was epic. The "siege" (wasn't long of siege since my ranger and another PC had been planted as moles, hired by the local lord as assassins, to guarantee we could open the draw bridge and gates to the keep when the others arrived with the villagers, which we did, ultimately) ended with us fighting the lord, who was something like 5th level, up the stairs of the highest tower of the dungeon in flames, and I killed the guy with my two-handed sword and rolling a 320 something on the attack, and another awesome roll on the crit. I basically cut him in half. I was on top of the world.

Another time I took on Etrius, the #2 of Clan Tremere, in duel at the Vienna Chantry with Wheldrake, my Lasombra antitribu (very long story to explain why and how he could actually take him). I didn't exactly beat him, it was more of an epic draw really, but I survived and managed to make it out of the Chantry alive. That was something. I didn't think I would make it out honestly.

Some really great stories in this thread, I love it when you're facing the big bad, need to roll an open 10 on a d10, and it happens. Boom, headshot.

I know! I'm searching for it too sometimes! Damn Facebook!

This was one of the best games I ever played, btw. The entire situation was really a sandbox, and we were let completely free to deal with the situation however we wanted. This is how it ended up playing out.

Tiamat, on the Astral Plane. Wiped out three PC's, and five NPC's, even with magical things called "Sunstones" and a Vorpal blade, it took three game sessions to resolve, and we lost a half dozen magic items (failed saves) and around a dozen items were drained completely from use. My PC lost his armor and best weapon, and nearly died but survived, barely.

Whereas, we got taken prisoner and managed to kill an Old Blue Dragon in our escape. It started with a blow to the head with a shovel...

A 6th Generation Lasombra, incapacitated, and diablerized. Then again,my character was a 8th Generation Brujah Anti-tribu.
