Simple question: Do you have a model that continously fails and what does it do/not do?
For me it would have to be my BT plasma gunner. Every game I play (with one exception) he has rolled one to hit,failed his save and killed himself in the gets hot.
But what about you?

Though my own units don't really have too many problems (although my KFF Mek has his moments) my friend has a Tau Hammerhead that rolls an inordinate amount of ones for hits or wounds.
This has gotten to the point I've ignored it several times because I know it's not going to hit a damn thing.

It's not a model, but the one thing that always fails me is the roll on the vehicle damage table. Every time I always easily penetrate a LRBT with my Lascannon predator I roll a 1 for crew shaken. Then the broken tank gets to fish itself out of the bin.

Well, It would have to be my leman russ demolisher. The reason why is every game it either get's destroyed firt or second turn when it's outta range. Or it just get shaken and stunned results the whole game so it can't do anything, ever! Even when I finally get one shot off, it scattered back onto itself and exploded and killed 5 guys next to it. It;s fething awful!

Zoanthropes. I have had one game where they successfully killed a tank or two, but in every other game I have fielded them (around 6-8 games...) they have either failed psychic tests, missed entirely, or simply been shot and failed their 3++. There was one time that they killed an entire space marine. That was great.
I now use them only for synapse in very small games, because I know that they can't do anything else.

My Biker Warboss, after he was finally finished being painted, did nothing but fail for a long while.
First game after being painted, he rides over a ravine to get to the enemy army. Fails his dangerous terrain test, takes a wound. Enemy turn, he gets shot by a storm bolter, takes a wound. My turn again, he assaults an enemy rhino (after his deffkopta escort failed to even touch it with their TL rokkits), blows it up, and dies in the explosion.
In another game, he rockets across the map into the enemy Space Marine lines, only to lose combat and die to a 5-man unit of tac marines.
Finally, in a game against the Tau, he makes it into combat with a unit of Firewarriors and their Devilfish. He makes one (autohit) attack against the Devilfish, and the rest against the Firewarriors. He misses the Devilfish, and whiffs all but one hit agains the fire warriors. The single hit fails to wound, and then the fire warriors inflict one wound on him. He fails his leadership test, runs, and then gets SWEPT BY FIREWARRIORS.
Thankfully though, he's been slowly making a bit of a comback, having almost solo'd half of a combined Tyranid/Ork force in a 2000 pts doubles game, and killing over 400 points worth of Death Cult Assassins and Grey Knights in his most recent forray. Hopefully his success is not fleeting.

I'm surprised it lasts that long! They're pretty easy to wreck.
My consistently under performing units would have to be my three Vindicators in my Iron Warriors army. Turn 1 sees one get wrecked, turn 2 sees one get immobilized, and by turn 3 they've either all been wrecked, all lost their guns, or all immobilized facing the wrong direction or something. When they actually fire, they almost always miss, fail to wound, or in some cases land on my own guys. Anything that hits their armor rolls straight sixes with startling regularity, and even against armies with limited long range firepower, every shot hits and penetrates on these things. They're like a magnet for bad luck.

Same for me. If they weren't the only unit I had with a 3++ save then I wouldn't bother with them. Last game, threw 2 11s for psychic tests, and a couple of 1s on the pen role for the lance attack. In 4 turns they lived 3 of them immobilised one predator - for 180 points. I get more use out of the mycetic spore.

A specific one of my Aspiring Sorcerers for my Thousand Sons used to fail so regularly that he earned the nickname "Kenny". He'd either blow his own head off with Perils of the Warp, fail to hit or wound anything, or explode into a Greater Daemon which would then completely fail to do anything as well.
He's been getting better lately though! I suspect he's been earning experience and levelling up behind my back or something.

Every game these veterans warriors have a chance to prove their skills to their non-veteran battle-brothers, and every time, without fail, their demonstration of "discipline wave of bolter fire" ends in less than 50% hit and less than 50% wound (especially against orks).

The biggest standouts for me are my Grey Hunters with Meltaguns. Between all the squads I'll shoot the meltaguns probably 12-16 times per game. They will on average kill 3 things in total all game long.

Well I wouldn't say the whole model because he actually serves me very well. But whenever my swarmlord casts leech essence to try and gain wounds back, he nearly always causes a perils, twice he has actually killed himself because of it (the irony of doing this in order to try and prolong his existence is palpable).
Or I will always have one of my trygons roll a 1 when the fleet roll is what would get him into combat.
But other than that, I wouldn't say I have any models that consistently do badly for me.

My Tau do fairly well in shooting, but they have done much better in CC. Once a squad of 6 Fire Warriors w/ Shas'Ui whittled away a Assault Marine Combat Squad until all that was left was the Sergeant w/ Power Fist. I plan on playing Farsight Enclaves when the update rolls along.

I put on the shelf for 3ish months before picking him up and making a desperate attempt to use him. He took on like 30 assault marines with powerfists and killed all but 3 before dying off. Only time his luck ever turned around. Now I use him as a Termie champ only to be sacrificed to my greater daemon.

For me, it's pretty much anything with a single dice being rolled at a time.
So meltaguns, multi-meltas, lascannons, plasma pistols, and krak missiles.
I will admit that they do MUCH better if they're firing with their squad, assuming they have one. But if they're firing alone, they're gonna miss, and if they don't miss by some miracle, they're not gonna wound.
It's gotten to the point where with my Sisters of Battle, when I'm firing the squad's meltagun at a tank or building or what have you, I'll roll the squad's bolters too even if I know they can't do anything at all.
My first game with my Exorcist, it had a good opening volley, it got off six missiles on turn one and blew up a Vindicator - which is really dangerous, because my Sisters mostly footslog. After that, it was basically 1s every turn, with maybe a 2 or two. In its second game, which has yet to be completed, it's gotten a 6, then a 5 thus far, so it's doing better.
Which reminds me, I haven't used any Faith Points yet in my current game... I forgot all about it. My faith points and Act of Faith rolls suffer from the issue of the single-dice failure as badly as my meltaguns and weapons do.

Or on a later battle: Stupid jac thinks, ill stick him next to a unit of lootas and have a fun old dakka-fest up on a hill away from the action. Oooh lets shoots some humies over there. Oh poo you have malfunctioned your weapon and poned half the lootas and yourself , never mind.
To be fair my Big Mek's failings are often due to my own tactical failings but hes still a bit of comic relief in the army. And i spent so long painting him il be damned if i wont field him!

If your BS is really high, you often get a second roll. For instance, if you're BS6 you hit on 2's, but if you miss you roll again and can hit on 6's. If you're BS8 that second roll would be hitting on 4's. At least that's the rule I'm assuming he's talking about.

Yeah but I'm pretty sure Vindicators aren't BS8. I hope not, anyway.

My monolith, either deep strike mishaps or scatter back onto itself and immobilize itself with the particle whip, or when the 15 warriors fail 15 out of 20 bladestorm shots.
and every finecast that has arrived as a miscast model that is quite literally, a sheet of resin...

I'd like to retract my previous statement about models that always fail.
My Exorcist was stellar in my last game. Always rolled 5s or 6s for missiles. It obliterated most of a Command Squad that had just butchered two units of Battle Sisters, blew up a dreadnought - the resulting explosion killed a couple of Marines as well - killed off most of a Sternguard unit, and wrecked a building some pesky Scouts were hiding in, all while sitting in place thanks to being immobilized from that Dreadnought's assault cannon. Its song was finally extinguished when a Captain got in its rear armor with a plasma pistol and got off a good shot on the fifth turn.
Also, I always rolled a 3 or higher for faith points, which I barely even used, except for my Retributors, though I believe I also used one for my Repentia when they charged a tactical squad at one point. Heh, my first two turns, I completely forgot about faith points.

I'm assuming you mean Vindicare assassin, not Vindicator siege tanks? I think the assassins are, the tanks are BS3 or 4 depending on if they're a Chaos one with possession or not.

my marbo tends to always whiff his demo charge, then get sshot to death by 10 tac marines
i wish my lasguns would hit/wound more often, firing 200+ each turn then getting 2 wounds and both of them saved just seems like a slap in the face
