Best game for Dude-Killling?

Best game for Dude-Killling? was created by Shellhead
We've all heard the online catchphrase, "I'm in your base, killing your dudes."
So what AmeriTrash boardgame offers the best chance to enter your opponent's base and kill his dudes? Ideally, I would like something like the Evil Genius PC game, only multi-player, where each player has some kind of base, including dudes and also traps, and other players can invade that base. Anything like that out there?

Mutant Chronicles: Siege of the Citadel seems a good fit here.

In terms of the phrase, I think of those situations in a RTS being where your opponent is focussed somewhere else and you go and stick him where it hurts. You are forcing your opponent to respond to your sneak attack and move to defend somewhere they had tought was safe. I think convoying in games like Diplomacy and A Game of Thrones create those situations. You have that feeling of "ah £@$*@&%, I can't believe you got me like that" in games with hidden information like Lord of the Rings: the Confrontation or Hammer of the Scots. Also, in games that have alternative win conditions where you suddenly realise an opponent is about to sneak a win. Liberte the only game I can think of like that at the moment but I am sure there are more.
Based on what you describe wanting, I think playing Doom as the overlord might have that feel. It has a lot of "you think you are doing well but wait until you open that door". I guess the games you are looking for are the games that cause you to give an evil laugh. I think CCGs have a lot of moments like that were you lure your opponent into attacking you when they think you are defenceless and you spring a card on them from your hand.

Risk 2210.
You have bases.
You have lots of dudes.
You have lots of nasty cards that can wipe out your oppenents dudes unexpectedly.

Micro Mutants Evolution.
All about killing the dudes and rocking the bases! Esp in the advanced version where you can try and shut down a base before it evolves and brings special powers with it!
