Sorry if this is in the wrong part or already a thread somewhere else.

Just wondered with all the technologyand millennia of training that armies have, what's the most ridiculous kill / carnage that you have managed to pull off?

As a Tau player, I had an IG Vendetta fly over my 'rubbish kroot'. Said 20 kroot were within 12" of said rear armour of Vendetta. of 40 snapshots 13 managed to hit, then of that 5 glanced.

Vendetta then crashed to the floor, missing any nearby Tau units and 9 of the 10 Storm troopers inside died. Said guardsplayers jaw hit the floor in disbelief.

I have to say, My most interesting one was a game against my brothers Necron.

We were playing the Relic, and his squad of immortals had the relic, I had first blood and kill the warlord. My lone remaining Plasma cannon, that he'd neglected to kill off with the rest of the devastator squad,

The lone plasma cannon, managed to kill all 5 of the remaining immortals in one shot.

Once had a broodlord demolish half my opponents army (to be fair, it was 5th ed Tau). Another time I had a genestealer solo a guard blob (a small one).

Teaching my gfs cousin to play 40K. He took my Orks. Managed to get Ghaz and his Nobz to charge my Crusader squad.

Of course, like the idiot he is, Mr Emperor's Champion steps up and challenges the Baddest Warboss in the Galaxy to single combat.

And whiffs every swing.

Ghaz comes back with 6-7 Power Klaw attacks. EVERY SINGLE ONE HITS.

EC is a now a red mist.

This one last week. A Furioso Blood Talon Dreadnought harged my 30man Termagant squad. Didn't kill them all. Not only that, but that same turn, the allied GK stormraven took a glance from Perils, crashed right on top of the Dread. Didn't kill any Nids. Killed the Dread, who exploded, and killed a Scout to boot. And then the 3 BA Ravens tabled me.

A chaos player charged at my Shas'o with his Khorne chaos lord, challanged as he has to (rendering the lone beserker that made it that far useless)
The Shas'o continued to punch him to death in 1.5 turns (his assault, mt assault, his assault again) while taking 2 wounds during that time, then proceeded to crush the beserker during my next assault.

I'm promoting this guy to Farsight or R'myr after this.

Just the other day I Had some Kroot on my objective. It was a little tense as I had one turn left before the Swarmlord hit my lines, and I needed to hold onto that objective. So my opponent puts Deathleaper in cover right in front of my kroot, which would end up splitting my fire and denying my objective at the same time.

Then my interceptor lascannon turns around and instagibs Deathleaper even though it was sitting in 2+ cover.
And the next turn the Kroot eat the Swarmlord's last wound in CC.

Waaaaay back in 2nd/ 3rd Ed (it's so long ago I can't remember !), a mate of mine was running Orks against my Eldar. Avatar wandering around gleefully smacking those filthy Greenskins when a single, lone, Kommando chucks a Krak grenade on said Avatar, dropping it down to one wound. Avatar gets charged by a blob of 30 Gretchin.... by the time the last Gretchin attacks it's doling out something like 28 attacks. Hits Avatar 5 times, wounds twice... Avatar dies in a puddle of smoky, confused ichor.

Im playing against blood anels, and its down to his l;and raider and my abbadon.

I immoblise it, destory all but one of it's weapons

And then....

I kill myself with 1 on my deamon weapon

5th edition game

On turn 5, which ended up being the last turn of the game, I peeled my Emperor's champion off of a crusader squad to kill 2 remaining kroot that were sitting on an objective. The crusader squad rushed to the other remaining objective. If I could kill the kroot with the Emperor's Champion, I'd win 1-0. If I stayed locked in combat with the kroot with the EC, I'd still win 1-0.

I make it into close combat and swing 4 times, failing to hit with 3 rolls. Since I had the Accept Any Challenge Vow, I pick those up and swing again, but only get an extra hit out of it. Still, I only need to roll 2's to wound the kroot and I have two chances. Snake eyes! I deal no wounds. Damn.

OK then, he only gets 2 swings back and my EC still has 2 wounds. We'll stay locked in close combat and I'll win.

He hits and wounds with both swings. Damn.

OK then, he only needs to make 1 of these 2+ armor saves to live and stay locked in close combat. Snake eyes! I take 2 wounds and lose the EC. Damn!

He consolidates back onto the objective. Game ends. Tie.

Had two models left in my scout squad (A Sergeant and a reg) they both had Sniper rifles and camo cloaks they were in cover and camping an objective.

They got charged by a CSM demon prince with 2 wounds left, The scouts hit 3 times, wounded 3 times and the Prince failed 2 saves and died before even getting to swing and kill the scouts on the objective.

That or My friends Trygon with 2 wounds left assaults my Dreadknight, the Dreadknight uses wall of death with his heavy incenerator and does two hits. Both wound and he fails his Armor saves on both killing it before it even rolls its charge range.

I've had my necron warriors out assault a unit of Blood Angels Assault Terminators.

I've had my standard Captain (P.Sword and bolt pistol) fight a boys mob of 30 ork boys, nob, and warboss solo...holding the objective valiantly for 4 turns (this was 5th edition so no challenges) until he was finally slain by the last ork boy. That ork boy rolled 3 hits (5,5,6) and 3 wounds (5,6,6)... I rolled 1,1,1. He hadn't suffered a single wound till then.

I've had my necron playing friend scatter his Particle Whip onto his Nightbringer (former necron codex) and deal the last wound killing him.

Good times, good times.

Having my heavy weapon squad fight off a squad of assault marines.

I just have this hilarious mental image of a guardsman beating a marine to death with a lascannon battery.

My converted Ghazzy wrecked a Leman Russ with a power Klaw and rolled a 6. The shrapnel killed him

A stealth suit killing a hive tyrant. In close combat.

Old game. My termies blow up a LRBT and the crew escape mechanism spits out 3 guard who proceed to kill the 5 man termie squad in a turn of me rolling too many 1s

Third edition game: one dark lance destroys a land raider, resulting explosion destroys a dreadnought.

I had a SW lord wipe My warboss and 8 mega Nobs in a single turn

My lone Sm captain hacking appart a 30 man strong Cultist squad and then next turn faling to the wounds inflcited upon him by that damned Hellbrute

My Hive Tyrant with a single wound remaining tried to last another turn by putting Endurance on himself, for the FNP roll and a shot at IWND to regain a wound. The roll technically succeeded... with snake eyes. He killed himself with Perils and meekly left the table.

4 wychs killed my hive tyrant who had all his wounds

My Friend was able to explode my Land raider with a rending assault cannon shot and then I procedded to fail 2 armor saves for my terminators.
The rest of the match went downhill very quickly for me

Just recently, I took out 2 Leman Russ's with a quad gun.

I jumped a squad of warp spiders behind him and they whiffed their shots, only causing a single glance. Next turn for some reason he completely turned his tanks around, presenting rear armor to my quad gun. He annihilated the Spiders, but then my Fire Dragon Exarch with Tank Hunters and Crack Shot lit into him, caused 4 penetrating hits, and one was left a crater, and the other a smoking ruin. I was quite happy.

I had a single Assault Marine sergeant with a power sword roll up an entire Tau battleline.

He assaulted one FW squad, he won on my opponent's turn. He then assaulted a Shas'o and 2 Suits he had joined.

He swept them and survived all the fire the Tau put into him. All the Plasma died with the Shas'o.

Then he was assaulted by a Stealth team and finally died.

I had a beaten up unit of Eldar guardians suffer the horrible fate of the chaos land raider rumbling up and dropping the assault hatch to disgorge 5 chaos terminators, who were tasked with slaughtering the weedy space elves, only they did not. Not only did they fail but the eldar killed all of them in melee. To add insult to injury he had made a serious blunder and while salivating over crushing my guardians he had accidentally left the land raider within moving and assaulting distance of my wraithlord who proceeded to smash it apart. So over 500 points worth were lost trying to deal with a load of penny points no-hopers.

In 4th edition I had a librarian with a jump pack daisy chain an entire army. Hit it on the left end of the table, 2.5 turns later he was tabled. I would have felt bad if it wasn't so epicly awesome.

A Rhino 1 shot-ing a Land Raider with a HKM (this was 2nd or 3rd edition, don't remember which).

In 5th I took out an entire Tyranid horde of 60 gaunts and a trygon with seven tactical marines and a librarian

My master of ordinance killed only himself while trying to triangulate an enemy position. The shot scattered and landed inside the trench, right next to him where the trench did a ninety degree turn. He was splattered everywhere, where the rest of my command squad was allowed a cover save.

I had Missile Launcher armed Dev. Squad, take out a bio titan. It took three turns, but it was awesome. Same titan different game was taken out by Hunter Killer Missiles and Lascannon fire in the first turn.

First one. A basilisk hit a land speeder with 3 glancing hits and a direct hit and it didnt blow up......

Second one. my mates were playing my SM with necrons and IG, all im gonna say is with a remarkable combination of scarabs and some jammy guardsmen...
....my land raider crusaders were destroyed by laspistols......

Lord Commissar vs. tooled-out Warpsmith. 95 points vs. 240-ish points. No one left standing afterwards.

Templar Techmarine vs. 2 (old Codex) Daemon Princes. Damn those 3++ saves are nice!

A battered unit of spinegaunts, reduced to 6 models, ended up within charging distance of the Avatar. I figured they were going to die that turn anyway, and between shooting and assault might actually take a wound off of him.

With TL spinefists, it wasn't surprising all attacks hit. What was surprising was 5 attacks wounding, and then the eldar player failing 4/5 saves.

Still lost the game, but I'm pretty sure that counts as a moral victory.

For me it was a game against my friends BA army, he had a storm raven loaded with a furioso dreadnought and 10 deathcompany fly onto the board, i fire half a longfang squad at it confident i would not hit.

I did.

One missile impacted but the odds of getting a 5 or 6 were not great there was no way i'd pen.

I did.

Well, this fluke could not continue and as its AP3 i was sure i'd just remove a weapon.

I didnt.

In one beautiful fiery explosion his aircraft flew apart in a ball of chaff, 9 out of 10 death company became a red mist and his dreadnought got a wing lodged into its sarcophagus.

All in all my friend was not impressed,.

But i was.

My Colonel Straken got into close combat with my friend's damaged Ork Stompa. Ripped off its arm and proceeded to do enough damage to cause an Apocalyptic Explosion.

The total tally of deaths was about 35 Orks, 15 Imperial Guard, the Stompa (durr) and unfortunately, Colonel Straken.

My brutal tau CC fire warrior squad that somehow always win combat, but the best time with them was vs Skarbrand he decides to charge them and so they did overwatch get 6 hits and 4 wounds and he fails 2 saves and in combat, they when 1st because he charged into cover so they get 7 hits and 3 wounds and he fails 2 saves .

Back in 5th edition during an apocalypse game I deepstruck a unit of Tzeentch termies with a sorcerer lord behind a warhound Titan.

All the termies whiffed their combi-meltas, as a last ditch I fired a bolt of change from the sorcerer. Hit, pen, rolled two chain reactions and the Titan popped.

I've always had a thing for that spell ever since.

First turn with a rocket launcher poped a land raider XD

How did you manage that?

Had a guy deepstrike his 5 Chaos termies behind a gundrone squad of mine, shot them up that turn, i lost 2 of 8
next turn he assaulted, i killed two on over watch and then another two in close combat, i lost combat and the 1 drone i had left got swept, but gun drones shouldn't kill terminators.... at all

Killed a D lord with stealth suits and gundrones in close combat.

though he had res'ed so i dont know if that counts.

5th edition (so power weapons are still awesome)

Shas'el is assaulted by a lone Astrorath. In 3 rounds the crisis suit takes no damage and eventually kills him. If that isnt stupid rediculous than i dont know what is!



Also recently had a landraider that survived over 6 direct manticore shots, 6 basilisk shots, 4 melta shots, and 8 lascannon shots (all hits btw). Granted it was alot of failed armor pen rolls, but thats ALOT of firepower.

Another time recently a melta dreadnought drop poded right on top 2 executioner LRs, a Demolisher LR, and a melta vet squad in a chimera. The furioso proceded to kill all of them except the demolisher, who got lucky (apparently against this magic dreadnought) and took it down,

Yesterday I was playing my sisters vs Orks. 1000pt. I outflanked my dominions with 2 multimeltas in a rhino right behind my opponents lootas and deffdread. Missed firing all snapshots during my turn and figured my dominions were dead next turn. Lootas killed the rhino. Deffdread declared assault. I over watched and roll a 6 for my multimelta and a total 14 for armor pen. And a 6 for result. Exploded 6 inches and killed 5/8 lootas in the blast. It was all downhill for my opponent from there.

I was playing chaos and was trying to finish off a tactical squad my friend had sitting on the objective.

He had 5 guys before I did my shooting, and I had 6 chaos bikers (two with melta guns) marked with tzeentch and a chaos sorceror also marked with tzeentch, 4+ invuln, spell familiar, scrolls of magnus, pretty much every upgrade possible.

I finish my shooting (breath of chaos, melta guns, lots of combi bolters rapid firing) and still only kill 4 of the 5 guys. He passes his moral check. In the assault phase I pass my check to assault, but fail to wound with all 7 hammer of wrath hits. I then proceed to cause something like only two wounds with my 23 attacks (four of which were power weapons, but none of those wounded). He passes both saves. His one attack back hits, wounds (on a 5+ remember) and I fail a save. I then fail my leadership, and he beats my initiative roll, and kills the entire squad.

It was pretty ridiculous. I still won however.

Farsight taking out 10 BA Assault marines + Sanguinary Priest on his own after they assault him, without any wounds lost.

In a recent game of mine, I had a 7 man biker squad - 5 died the first time, the last two managed to force a leadership test after 2 turns of fighting on 25 necron warriors + some super pimped out lord, they failed and overran - survived a turn of mass shooting at them (including two of those awful tesla thingies), one dying - so its a single biker now with a power sword. He then overran a second unit of warriors on turn six.

Strakken. Five assault termies.

Mephiston, killed himself with four consecutive perils rolls followed by a glorious charge into combat where his plasma pistol blew up and he failed an armor save. I wanted to be upset, but it was simply too damn funny. Best part about it too was that my opponent couldn't even scratch him; plasma barrages and melta guns failed to wound, and even a daemon prince fell to Mephiston's stock attacks after he was assaulted by the beast, but Mephiston using his own abilities? Unavoidable death.

Had a normal battlesuit get assaulted by a DP. After 4 turns of combat, he's killed the DP and made 20+ 4++ saves. He was subsequently promoted to Shas'O and repainted.

How?

Scarabs permanantly reduce the AV of vehicles because they have Entropic Touch.

So the AV of the Raiders was obviously reduced to 8 or less, although how that happened without the Scarabs killing the Raider themselves is beyond me.

Turned Ghaz into a squig with a badly wounded Zogwort in CC.

The squig then ate Zogwort

i once killed a deamond prince in close combat with fire dragons took me two turns and only the exarch survived but i did it.

In 4th edition, I played Chaos. I had a dread charge a SM dread. It went nuts on the chart, so I figured this was going to be easy. Welp, he failed horribly, and was immobilized and had nothing but the bolter left to fire. The SM dread turned its back on me and walked away. I hit once on my next shooting phase. Rolled a 6 for damage, and rolled another 6 on the damage chart. EXPLOSION!!!!

It was pretty hilarious. The both of us nearly puked from laughing at that one

Always lead with the edition when something nuts like that happens, example, my post

Played a 500 pointer in 5th edition.

I love it when your enemy kills himself. I warned my friend NOT to put the Chaos dread next to his regular troops. Bad rolling ends in him killing his own troops off. It's always hilarious watching someone incinerate their own troops.

I had a single fire dragon exarch left after being shot by marines, the marines charge 8 inches out of the 7 they need, the exarch makes his overwatch and turns the enemy warlord (who had all three wounds) into a fine paste, also broke the charge as the next nearest marine was just outside 8 inches

Had a whole tactical squad with a melta gun and a missle launcher kill one lonesome tau firewarrior. I just lit him up and we joked that he disappeared in smoke and there was a hole in the ground.

Had an apocalypse game recently - 10k points a side, I think - where my 3k points of blood angels is all but wiped by the time turn 4 hits. I have only one model left, a Sanguinary Priest in termie armour.

He wasn't able to join any nearby units, so I figured I'd just suicide him, pack up and be on my way.

Nope! That bugger survived a combined Daemon Horror and Flamer attack...shooting AND assault...all the way to the end of turn 5 and the game. That was a boring hour and a half, I can tell you. :p

One of my opponent was playing Necrons. He shooted on my Chaos Lord with his Doom Ark, but with the deviation Roll (12 on 2D6), he shooted his own Monolith : 6 for penetrate, 6 for damage : bye bye Monolith.

Lone marine scout, snipes my CSM terminators... rolls a 6 to hit, but a 4 to wound. Places the shot on my slaanesh aspiring champion, who fails LoS, fails armour save, fails FNP. The squad then fails a pinning check... come on!

Next match, I'm CSM again, playing GK. A fairly busy board with a ton of terrain and or squads in all the open places. So my opponnet tries to DS a DK in the open space about 10' from the edge to protect his last squad that is going to get rushed next turn. Scatters off the table (11' straight to edge) and 1 on the mishap. Next turn, tries to bring in squad of Terminators... 11" straight off table, 1 on the mishap table... basically game over.

2 Stories:
10 Kroot, 5 Space Wolves Terminators, 20 Kroot Rifle Shots, 4 terminators down.
and one Shas'O, one Skulltaker, one close combat, one skull bashed in by an XV-8 arm

I had a 5th Ed. Carnifex (w/ 2+ Save) charge my Inquisitorial Stormtroopers whose shooting put it down to 2 wounds. It killed all but the sarg, who promptly hit twice, wounded twice and with a double one for its save, it died a humiliating death.


Another: my friends Thunderwolf Lord with his Storm Shield (also down to 2 wounds) was about to charge my Devastators, my 4 Missiles Launchers failed the Snap Shot. But then I remember the Sarge still has a bolter, 2 snap shot hits, 2 wounds and another double one. Whoops.

I was playing against nids with my eldar.

Trygon Came up shot and didn't kill a single pathfinder (not too surprising they had a 2 up cover save).
My turn, nothing could take it down, i would either miss or not even wound.
Then my pathfinders shot............... 6 rends...............
You should have seen his face.

(This was 5th edition btw)

My scout sergeant has taken out, over the course of many battles, killed:

(in one game) 2 leman russes, creed, kell and a company command squad
1 captain
1 daemon prince
1 land speeder
2 chaos lords
1 chapter master
3 predators
2 vindicators

him and his squad wield a meltabomb and close combat weapons.
the best one was in an apocalypse game. He infiltrated on the other side of a wall to Creed's CCS, spent two turns in combat (lost 2 men, killed everyone), climbed a fortress wall, meltabombed the first leman russ on the battlements, the second one turned and fired, killing the remaining two scouts of his squad, he then ran up to it and meltabombed that, survived the explosion, jumped off to avoid a lasgun volley, and time up.

as for otherwise, I had Lysander survive, while on one wound, alone, about 1000 point's worth of eldar (seer council, fire prism, a load of howling banshees, etc.) for four turns straight. Admittedly, he was just running away, but he managed to outmanoeuvre an entire army and outrun about 20 howling banshees.

I also had a devastator squad get four men wiped out by a hellhammer, so my lone multi-melta devastator failed morale, ran away (behind it), rallied, then fired one shot at it's rear armour. Penetrated, and three chain reactions later, it exploded and killed several nearby units, but somehow not the devastator.

I was running my Orks against my mates Imperial Guard in a Spearhead game - I finally got to use my Stompa.

After lots of shooting on both sides it took a single guardsman to explode my Stompa!

Back in 1999 (3rd edition) I was using my brand new lacannon-armed Chaos Dreadnought in it's first game.

On the very first dice roll of the very first turn I rolled a , ensuring it fire-frenzied. I had to fire a weapon at the closest model, which happened to be my (also brand new) predator. I figured that the heavy flamer would be safer than the lascannon, and so fired it at the side armour. What followed was another for a glancing hit, followed by another for a destroyed tank.

So my most ridiculous kill is of my own model!

My IG playing buddy played in a tournament and went heavy on the Democharges.

Apparently he had been issued with boomarang democharges causing more damage to himself then the enemy.

We all know and acknowledge that Green iz Best.

20 Chaos cultists with 8 autoguns, a flamer, heavy stubber and shotgun, the rest with pistols, destroyed a 5 man terminator squad in one round of shooting. they are getting promoted to marines

Back in 5ed I had 2 devastator marines with plasma cannons win a combat with a fifteen strong hormogaunt brood and then destroy them with sweeping advance.

A drop pod storm bolter killed typhus.

The last time I fielded mortars, I told my opponent they can drop on themselves and they promptly do so and kill themselves when I roll scatter.

I once stated, I never win at siezing the initiative. I do so as soon as I close my mouth.
I once stated, I never roll double ones on issuing orders. I do so as soon as I close my mouth and roll.
I once stated, I believe my tau crisis suit team will scatter between a chaos termy lord and a squad of raptor with only an inch to spare on each side. I do so as soon as I close my mouth and roll.
I once stated, I hope all of my basilisks splatter that horde of chimeras in terrain. I pop 3 of the 5 in one turn of shooting.

You get the idea, when I declare things happen.

I had a Medusa siege artillery team from Death Korps of Krieg looking mephiston in the face 12" away. Hit with 2 of 3 pie plates (3 hits on the scatter dice in a row) and failed to wound even once (snake eyes). I shrug and take my flashlight shots and do 5 wounds 2 of which go unsaved and finish Mephiston off...I have never "forgotten" my flashlight fire again.

BTW I think Mephiston thought it was the dawn and ran in terror.

Back in 5th edition, a friend IG army was getting wasted by a custom Khorne army. His 20 man white-shield squad was wiped off the board by an 8 man bezerker squad. With nothing else working, I charged a ten man tactical squad into the bezerkers, and killed them to a man, without any marines dying.

Saint Celestine buzzing around like a bird in a room full of windows, killing herself on a dangerous terrain roll (having been shot down to 1 wound by Noise Marines earlier).

She gets up with one wound and jumps to engage something.

Kills self again.

Very first time I ever use my Big Mek with Shokk Attack gun I roll snake eyes. Next i roll to see how large the blast is and i roll a 6. My Big Mek was right next to my Lootas. Half the squad is blown of the table, the other half run off after failing LD.
The 2nd time i use my Big Mek he does ok turn one wounding a GK termy, then turn 2 he rolls snake eyes but then rolls 1 for explosion size.
Im dreading game 3, turn 3 . . . .

In a 3rd edition game, a lone Salamanders assault marine assaulting a full unit of Kroot with hounds, winning the combat, and running down the whole squad.

In my last game - my friend deep striking two Wych squads in Raiders, and proceeding to kill my two Carnifexes with splinter pistols.

"Walk it off Celestine..." I'm glad my St celestia (name of my celestine)hasn't had that happen to her yet.

Another one, but it goes to a friend

My Lelith completely failing to hit (or wound when she DID hit), and being curbstomped by a ZZapp battery's gun grots.

Freaking hilarious, even if it did lose me the game

Once i had an opponent run Vulkan Hestan straight at my shas'o alongside 10 assault terminators. A fire warrior squad gun line whittled the squad down to just hestan, and a few turns later Vulkan was slain in CC by a gun drone attached to one of the body guards. GO figure!

My mate's five strong assault termie squad are coming at me, brushing off two rounds of 5x ML LF squad fire like they were dead leaves. Gets in assault range, snapshots go off (sgt fires too). Six 6's to hit, six 6's to wound, all 1's for saves. We both had to sit there for a minute to realize what had just happened.

My friend had two terminators die to overwatch by normal ork boys( with the choppas etc.)

Playing Imperial Guard back in 3rd edition, while retreating (not falling back) my Junior Officer hopped out of his Chimera and desperately shot a Blood Angels Dreadnought in the back with a bolt pistol, and caused it to explode.

A few weeks ago I had a solitary Fire warrior pop the back of a chimera. Rolled a 6 to penetrate and a 6 to damage. BOOM! See you later guardsmen!

Eldrad and the lone storm guardian he was with charged a Lord of Change (Lord was already down a couple of wounds thanks to some earlier shooting from the reapers). Eldrad does nothing at all in combat missing with all his attacks and gets squished by the Lord of Change. Lone remaining guardian then manages to pull down the daemon.

Sternguard vs. a pain engine(or whatever it is where he kills a model and you get a token)
Their transport is shot to pieces. They survie but the Pain engine tries to kill one, he makes the save.
Next turn involves hellfire rounds into it..........3 wounds, 3 faild saves.

Apoc game 14k per side. I charged a unit of 7 gretchin with runt herder. Kill 4 gretchin, only to have the runtherder put 2 wounds on Vulkan to finish him off. So embarrassing!!!

For some random reason i decided to run my bike captain with a power lance and a plasma pistol for fun one friday night.

I drew up against dark eldar with wytch spam and Lileth running around like a suicidal maniac.

My captain and his band of merry men blew up her raider. She then charged, i overwatched.

The plasma pistol hit and successfully wounded, she then fails her LOS and he invul!

Not for me but my opponent was pretty pissed after trashing talking how bad lileth was going to kill me.

Speaking of Bikers. I had a Biker boss, take shots from an entire 1000pt Marine force. They all either failed, or I made my saves. Then last ditch effort, he had a hbolter pred with a storm bolter on top. Stripped 2 wounds with the heavy bolter, and took the final wound with the storm bolter. I died laughing. He should of shot with that first and saved himself all that trouble

So we have a tau player in our group. And he tends to make his Tau army into(what seems like) CC beast. His 2 remaining FW killed a lictor(an many other cc specialist) .

His drones can wipe out ork bikes, His battle suit can take on a 5 man termy squad.

And he just has the best luck in CC with his FW....

Loaded dice?

A gun drone making bjorn explode from behind .

Our group has just all agreed that its not worth it to assault his FW!

Dakkalance I seem to have the same luck as your friend with tau in combat because I have had FW killing terminators, space marines, orks and MCs like skarbrand also one of the best moments was shadowsun killing 2 carnifexs combat.

Yeah If I had to choose between TH/SS termies and FW to charge, I would pick the termies! no way Im gonna make it out alive against the FW

Dwarf Gyrocopter against my empire knights, knights are run off the table by saud gyrocopter. the one lone crossbowmen who had charged into help managed to stick his crossbow in the mechanism which sent the gyrocpter spinning into my steam tank, destroying both the tank and the copter.

Little crossbowmen just looked at the devastation he had caused with disbelif

One of my labalites killed three carnifexs

I fired twice (in the whole game!) at a Dark Apostle with a lasgun equipped trooper. Guy rolled 2 ones.

5th Edition Auto-Tie mission. Ork Nobz N' Lootas vs IG Mech (me) Last turn and he's got me on the ropes, but he has Ghazkull coming to contest my objective (rest of Nobs were dead). He decides to shoot his Lootas at a stray Chimera as he has nothing else to do with them. Chimera Explodes. 6" range just BARELY knicking Ghaz, we agree it's close enough that we should 4+ it. It hits him. 6 to wound. 1 on armor save. Fails his 4+ FNP. Ghazkull dies and we tie rather than him winning.

Oh and on the other side of it (AKA Not killing) for awhile I was famous amongst my friends for terrible rolls and got 19 hits on a squad of Necrons. 4+ to wound. 1 wound went through, 18 failed to wound. That's my "Most Ridiculous FAIL in a Game"

At least you have a chance vs the TH/SS .

did a 3 on 3 match earlier in the year in 5th ed. I managed to pop a necron monolith and explode it with one Tau Broadside. If that wasn't good enough, there were 12 Ork boys sat right by the side of it. BYE BYE ORKS! I adore the Tau Railgun. It should be renamed the widowmaker.

Just after 3rd was release I had a game against 'Nids with my IG. In those days Spore mines would explode with effectively an ordnance blast if you shot them and you coud buy them as a fast attack (I think) choice. My opponent set up with a skirmish line of spore mines right in front of his army with a few actually within the main body of his troops.

My very first shot of the game was with a Leman Russ whose battle cannon caused a spore mine chain reaction that wiped out virtually his whole army. The few dazed survivors were mopped up by the end of turn 2 and I hadn't suffered a single casuality.

I think a valuable lesson was learned that day.

At the dawn of the current DE Codex in 5th ed.
A Talos survived 4 instances of Living Lightning in 1 turn only to be hacked apart by a 5 man pack of blood claws...

Broadside exploded a Vendetta that came in on turn 4 and killed the entire command squad inside. I really enjoyed it because that player was a real jerk.

Oh, and a 6 man squad of Firewarriors killed a Master of the Forge when he charged and got mowed down in overwatch.

Oh I love threads like these.

I have to date taken down three fliers with haywire grenades.

A vendetta and a stormraven by rolling 3 6's in a row, and a second vendetta by getting an immobilized result and then turbo-boosting all of my jetbikes in its way. Because of Locked Velocity, it could not move past them, it had to come up short and therefore crashed itself.

Do I win?

My weirdest kill involved a Big Mek with Shokk Attak Gun. He fires at a unit of necron immortals atop a ruin, I roll 'Zoink' so he teleports in melee with them.
The Necron player grins evilly as a single nob-statted HQ against the immortals doesn't have much of a chance in melee against five immortals, only armed with a 6+ save and a normal CCW.
My Mek proceeded to wreck two immortals, The other three failed morale and ran off - I almost swept him.

It gives me the mental image of soulless machines running in fear from one angry mechanic armed with a wrench.

My wackiest not-kill involved a Junka, an odd vehicle with a Shokk Attack Gun turret and a deffrolla. I managed to move in a crater and throw a track (roll 1 for DT, reroll, another 1, immobilized). Then I shoot the Doom of Mal'anthai with the SAG, and roll a Zoink. So the immobilized Junka teleported to the Doom to ram it with the deffrolla! (Sadly it survived the ram, but we had lots of laffs)
Just goes to show, orks don't care if it looks good as long as it works. If the engine fails, just teleport that darn tank! hah!

Horror of Tzeentch bolts a Stormraven, rolls a six and kills the Stormraven, four of five Sternguard and takes a hull point off a Ironclad's rear armour.

So last 40k game.

A unit of Khorne Bezerkers with Chaos Lord with Axe of Khorne charged my Grandmaster and 2 remaining terminator buddies.

Khorne Lord challanges, I accept with the Grandmaster. Grandmaster gibs the Khorne Lord before he swings(Halberd) and the Bezerkers finish off the Terminators.

Next round its 5 Zerkers vs Grandmaster. Grandmaster kills 3 bezerkers. 2 remaining swing back. 3 wounds. I fail all 3 saves

Thats an epic way to go from WIN! to DAMMIT!!



My first game with Orks had a cool moment similar to that. Some SM HQ with a relic blade was slicing and dicing boyz left and right, Im talking near cheating levels of killing! So I moved my PK Boss up there to make some noise. I get him up there and naturally he was JUST outside of assault distance. So Boss gets charged. The SM whatsit fails every single relic blade attack, and my boss ID the cocky Marine. Hilarious

Yup, if that hadn't happened I would have won. Instead I got tabled

Hey I lost that game I posted about with the Biker Boss dying to a fething storm bolter And I think its because the boss wasnt there to smack heads around

i killed fate-weaver in my first 2 rounds this is one of my favorite moments and my brother kept telling me how screwed i was the look on his face pr i c l e ss.

One shoota boy killing Darnath Lysander, the finest of the imperial fists on one on one combat. That is my best kill.

Back when I was in my 'nid phase, I was playing another Tyranid player. I took One-Eye, and this game made me absolutely love using him.

Anyway, The first round of assault he got into, he took out a squad of eight gargoyles. The next turn, he moved on to absolutely demolish a unit of genestealers (the exact number has escaped me, it's been a while). The turn after that, he took out a Hive Tyrant and a tyrant guard. Then, he fell to a shot from a Tyrannofex. That is the largest killstreak of anything I have ever used in 40k.

Aw, now I want to play nids again...

Earlier Edition of 40k... friend scratch built baneblade with old white dwarf plans... i actually painted it when he was done. First round after he deployed... assasin in terminator armor TH/SS teleport right ontop of it and after close combat blew it up with one hit... was at old comic store even so my friend was not happy and everyone else was mixed about laughing or being respectful on the matter.... my friend never played a heavy tank against me after that so that was my experience with a super heavy lol... i think it was maybe 2nd Edition when you could do that... maybe RT or 3rd was long ago.

An early edition of Fantasy... Naggash (spelling?) fought battle against Karl Franz (Spelling?) ... resulting in Karl Franz becoming a wight! LOL. Another classic was my brother in earlier edition with Brets... my undead destroyed him so much and caused him to flee all over the place from fear and over running him... he cried! ... yeah i was a good big brother.. i snaped a pic of him and still have it somewhere .

Epic 40k Warlord rolling all 1's with plasma cannon....

Recent... my stepson... playing Grey Knight Terminators... i decided to have fun with him with a force containing 3 Land Raiders (1 Godhammer and 2 crusaders)... he holed up in some cover... mistake... destroyed his entire 2000 point force to the man and took only my commander and his honor guard casualty (after they killed some terminators with melta guns. The Godhammer was the MVP droping storm raven first round, secon round killing a vindicare assasin, and third round destroying a las cannon dreadnaught. This was 5th Edition just b4 6th edition rules were released.

I killed logan grimnar (sp?) with bolt pistols from a scout squad that just came in from reserves. Bolt pistols for the win!

My personal coolest kill was playing against one of by buddies orks. My squad of bloodclaws (as bloodclaws always do) got surrounded. As the close combat ensued his 30 boyz squad with sluggas inevitably whittled down my bloodclaws. When turn 5 hit he charged in to close combat with nob squad and warboss. Luckily (us both being new) his warboss and 2 nobs were in base contact with Lukas the Trickster. His warboss's powerklaw finally killed Lukas activating the stasis bomb in the stead of his secondary heart. He rolled a 4 and I rolled a 5. The resulting explosion took out 2 boyz, the warboss, and 2 nobs. Very satisfying despite losing the game.

This isn't quite as extreme as most counts, but one of my Striking Scorpion Exarchs is pretty good at downing Space Marine characters due to higher Initiative and the Biting Blade getting him Instant Death.

Back in 4th 12 man fw squad taking out 5 man terminator squad in one round of shooting.

Same game (I was new and unfamiliar with tanks playing another noob with a mutual friend ref'ing the game) the SM player tank shocks my kroot with rhino. Krootox death or glories and destroys rhino causing an explosion and all inside transport to die.

I had three dark angels. Took out two IG infantry squads, a squad of conscripts, platoon command squad, and stormtroopers.

They were then taken down by his allied Tau. Oh, the shame.

Oh man, too many to tell on my end. Most ridiculous though? Probably this -

Playing a game with my line breaker Black Templar versus a friends Dark Eldar.

I'm rolling terrible, and immobilize my land raider on some terrain.

My opponent, not willing to give up such a wonderful chance before a techmarine comes along to fix the problem, he brings his wyches up with haywires, and manages to get them within 6" of the raider to almost ensure the charge.

However, before he charges in, he decides to throw the single haywire grenade... He hits, rolls a six on the haywire chart for a pen.. and another six for an explodes! result... Not only did the one wych destroy my 265 point land raider crusader, but on the explosion range, he rolled a 6, and proceeded to have his entire wych squad destroyed in the explosion.


Also, I didn't go through all of the posts, so this may have been brought up already, but this thread made me think of this video -

First game at a tournament, 5th edition.
My mechDar versus a Chaos Space Marine warband (with 2 Daemon Princes).
6th turn, he destroys my wave serpents sitting on 2 different objectives.
Then he tries to charge my 5 DA squad and my 5DA+Farseer squad with a daemon prince each...

Both DPs died... I had no fortune neither doom... just a shimmershield

I won that game in this manner

Back in 5th, i brought a fluffy daemon list filled with boon princes, Kairos, and some tzeentch heralds . turn two i manage to liquify two tyrvigons, two Trygon Primes, and my buddies Hive tyrant all in one go. Since that day he's had a particular hatred any time i use boon on anything.

Battle for Salvation a couple years back, err well guess it's been 3 years now.

I was playing C:SM using Vulkan and a Termie/SS LIbby Nullzone/GOI

I normally play mech guard and wanted a change.

I get paired against the usual mech guard list I run.

Turn 1 I use GOI port 7 termies and a libby right next to his gunline.

He uses everything he has to try and whittle them down. 1 th/ss survives.

Assaults a squadron of 3 Basilisk (variant) blow 3 up ...

TH/SS termie gets assaulted by Creed/Kell

TH/SS wins combat Creed/Kell run

TH/SS assaults another squadron ...

This gos on the entire game, that 1 model literally won me the game. Rather, allowed me to win the game.

a unit of grot vs Termis.
runtherd, dead. 9 of 10 grots die.

The last one proptley kills the sergeant, and fails to be hurt by the 4 powerfists flung at him
next turn, he kills another termi and is left unharmed

That one grot lived the entire game, in fact his next act was to shoot and kill a space marine captain (who (obviously) had 1 wound remaining).

Yesterday I played 1750 tau vs. long fang spam. First turn was night fighting and I took down a few TWC with railguns, forcing a leadership check, guy rolled 12 for morale, ran just enough to hit the table edge and they all died. Took down 500 points including the wolf lord. Got first blood and warlord in the first turn of shooting.

Second game yesterday I managed to take down a C'tan with crisis suits on overwatch. It was already wounded, but the look on the guys face when a sure win in CC went so wrong so fast.

My Necrons vs. buddy's Blood Angels.

He was fielding a Stormraven, which I chased all over the table but couldn't seem to kill. It had even dropped the quantum shielding on one of my Ghost Arks.

Come turn 5, that Ghost Ark is in range to rapid fire some gauss into the thing, and scores enough hits to get a glance, and finally bring down the Stormraven.

But what's this? Crashing flyers land with a boom - and this boom deviates directly on top of the Ghost Ark. That's okay, S6 will never - no wait, he rolled a 6. And my jink save just isn't cutting the mustard. And wouldn't you know it, the damage result is a 5+1 to blow up the Ghost Ark that shot it down. At least the squad inside all died a bloody death from S10 crash landing hits.

I once stated, I believe my tau crisis suit team will scatter between a chaos termy lord and a squad of raptor with only an inch to spare on each side. I do so as soon as I close my mouth and roll.
I once stated, I hope all of my basilisks splatter that horde of chimeras in terrain. I pop 3 of the 5 in one turn of shooting.

You get the idea, when I declare things happen.

That's just the first law of wargaming. The second coincidentally enough, is when you desperately need a roll to succeed, it'll always whiff. That's why melta guns never, ever hit when a single dice is rolled.

In a match with my Space Wolves against Eldar I had the sole survivor of a barrage of scatter lasers being assaulted by 20 Guardians. He then proceeded to kill 2 with his bolter in Overwatch, not being hit by a single one and killing 2 with his power axe and sweeping assaulting the remaining, slightly confused Guardians. Then he walked over to another 15 man Guardian unit, assaulted them, killed another 2 and sweeping assaulted the rest, before Eldrad decided he had enough of these shenanigans and killed him^^

Also the amount of fire a Lone Wolf of mine absorbed in a game against Tau was just absurd, a Plasma/rockets Crisis team, 2 12 man Firewarriors in rapid fire range and a Hammerhead only took 1 wound of him, he then, slyghtly annoyed over the dents in his armour proceeded to run the first Firewarrior team of the board, surviving the same barrage again(well, minus 1 Firewarrior team ) and wrecked the hammerhead next turn. If only I could roll like that day all the time

Well, for me this goes to my Vidicator.
In a match against a friend's Grey knights, the knights have first turn and all move upfield to close range (i have a long range SM army).
Then my vindi fires and explodes 2 Rhinos, killing 5 (of the 10) knights that were inside, kills a 5 man Purgation squad that was hiding behind them and immobilises the rifleman dread that was close..
Suffice to say that after that the game was an uphill battle for my friend after that...

In 5 ed.
My furioso dred whit out one arm and immobilised armed whit blood talons kills 2 DP one nurgel and one khorne. All 3 were locked in combat for 5 turns.

Not related to 40k but the best kill i ever got was in a DnD game. I was a necromancer wihh like no str and was the only one in my party left alive, all i had was a dagger could not cast a spell and was faceing a troll. Said to hell with it an did a called kill saying, "khloros,(his name ) throws his dagger in an attmpt to break a chain holding up a support beam that is supporting a large brick above a wooden sesaw thing with a berral full of swords on the other end that will throw them all at the trolls face" tossed my dice rolled a 20 my DM just looked at me like....really? Are you kidding me? Was the best DnD match ever

The best kill I ever got was during my stint with imperial guard in 4th ed. I used the basilisk to fire at my friends Chaos land Raider. I hit directly. Pen for result, got a six for the result. Back in 4th ed ordinance could get the annihilated result. So that caused the four chaos champions and the terminator lord to disappear without any saves. Needless to say, I'm still quite fond of the basilisk.

This happened to one of the other players in a game this weekend. He moved his Dreadnought in to destroy a pair of Tac Marines and then fired his Thunderfire Cannon in to soften them up. 1 of the 4 shots scattered and hit the Dreadnought (on the rear armour since it was facing away from it), penetrated and then exploded! We were in stitches afterwards.

Not a single kill as such, but one game of AOBR I played I managed to wipe out the entire marine force down to a dreadnaught, only losing a Nob in the process

Having my Avatar of Khaine butcher his way through a Tyrannid horde and in the last two turn of the game slugg it out with the Tyrannt. When we counted up the dead left in his wake we recoked he had killed som 800 points of stuff, after that I never leave home without him. Oh and this was in a 1750 game

my 4 stealth suits got into close combat vs 6 BA assault marines. survived 3 turns of close combat tieing each time, then the suits won one round and made the marines run off the board. i dont think they where fearless.

I always love it when rhinos or X cheap transport end up tank shocking a unit into obsolescence or off the board. The best was the time vs draigowing. Took 4 rhinos!

Another really entertaining kill was two necron lords with warscythes and mind shackle scarabs controlling eachothers attacks and forcing the other to auto hit and kill themselves.

I was also playing a csm mirror the other day and the guy's kharn and friends charged some csm after a couple rounds of being denied charge my rhino blocking and losing wounds to plasma. The remaining zerkers and kharn charge my csm, kharn mutilates my champion and wins combat. He immediately spawns himself my csm run away and kharn spawn and the zerkers die to bolters and plasma on my turn.

After a wolf lord had finished off my warboss my squad of 30 strong regular boyz ran at him, sprinting and firing snapshots. Out of the 30 shots, only one hit (lets face it, orks firing is more about making noise than actually trying to kill anything). That hit took off the final wound on the Wolf Lord ... Serves him right for not wearing a helmet.

New warboss right there.

Space Wolves vs GK

Shooting Phase.

Draigo and a group of termis bearing down on my Rune Priest.
Long Fangs and 40 grey hunters could only slow him down. 1 wound on Draigo left.

Last ditch effort a bolt pistol wielded by a Rune Priest at max distance. 1 shot 1 wound. Roll 6 to hit, 6 to wound. Draigo rolls 1.

Retaliation from Puri squad and the priest was gone.
But it was a death well earned.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Remembered another as i hit submit.

Rune priest hitting double 6 on a psychic test for the.new Holy Orb power. Destroyed himself and the GH squad he was with

Had a single lisctor take out a 10 man ork loota squad in one turn. Killed 2 on charge and 2 in CC and forced him to take a leadership check and he failed and I over ran him.

Happens depressingly often.

Lootas suck in CC, can't take a bosspole, have t-shirt saves and poor-ass LD.

If it wasn't for their huge-ass autocannons they'd be a mite useless

Today, I played Necrons vs. CSM:

Chaos Lord on a Bike with spawn gets into the assault with some Flayed Ones who were slicing through Plague Marines.

First combat with CL: Black Mace rolls a 1.

Second round: 1 again

Third round: Wipes the Flayed Ones and moves on.

However, he goes to assault another squad and has to challenge one of my Overlords. Black Mace roll...is a 1!

I also had 2 squad of Necron Warriors each with 2 Harbingers of Destruction. I'd go to shoot and every time (except at the very beginning and at the very end of the game), I rolled 2 ones for each squad...

Waaay back in 2nd Ed. I blew up a Leman Russ battle tank, causing the turret to fly in a random direction and a random number of inches. The turret landed square on top of Stumper Muckstart (a ratling sniper special character in the day), killing him. I had been trying to kill the little blighter all game... ridiculous

OOHHHH 2nd edition and it's crazy weapon-pen tables! Good times for all. I kinda miss weapons with Armor Pen having tons of weird D10/D20 stuff thrown in there!

In 5th edition versus IG my Emperor's Champion, having had his squad shot away from him
managed to get into combat and took out a CCS, 2 infantry squads and a heavy weapon squad,
and then moved on the nearest objective to contest it,
he really seemed deserved of the Emperor's blessing that day

5 storm guardians killing cryptek wraiths with ridonkuous overwatch luck.

He rolled all 1's for his invulns. I could hardly believe it. The fail was legendary.

another epic fail would be 5 pathfinders rolling 1's for cover saves.

and in a game against Space Marines committed seppuku trying to shoot my footseer council before they could charge, 2 missile and a plasma scattered onto thier own squad and killed everyone but my guys.

The fates were definitely not with them that day.

This would be for an oppent of mine

his tau vs my crons

My overlord had 1 wound remaining, with a 2+ 3++ save and a 4+ RP, as well as Phylactery and Warscythe.

He kills all but 1 guy and a drone. The guys does nothing. The drone kills the overlord :\ He rolled a 6 to hit and a 6 to wound, I rolled a 1 for armour then a 1 for RP... :\

I was one sad panda...

Assault terminators tore Necron Overlord whats-his-name, his bodyguard guy, a standard lord and 7 warriors in a single assault phase scoring me 4 VPs.

The same Terminators charged a group of 10 CC cultists next game. They tore them apart, but lost 4 of their number. How are cultists even able to harm terminators is beyond me.



Omnisiah protect.

In one of my first games ever, back in 3rd edition, I had a Tau FW team assaulted by a Dark Angels Master (? The captain type character), who they had just rapid fired into and dropped to one wound. He wiped almost everything in his kill zone except one FW who was exactly 2 inches away. One rock throw later and he was short an HQ.

(Incidentally, this game I had 3 Broadsides pumping rail gun after rail gun into his Land Raider. It was immobilized, and lascannons were gone, and I just kept shaking and stunning it after that. This started my amazing streak where I've never killed a Land Raider with a rail gun).

More recently, my first game of 6th edition saw my Vulkan and his squad of TH/SS terminators assault into a plague marine squad with attached lord (prior chaos codex). Realizing his lord was going to do bad things with the squad, and that he didn't have an aspiring champion to sacrifice to it, I challenge with my terminator sergeant. Suffice to say, the end of the challenge saw his lord go down....to his own daemon weapon.

Tyranid vs Dark Angels

Deathleaper come out of reserves to take control of an unmanned quad gun and proceeds to score a penatrating hit on the rear armor of a Venerable Dreadnought, blowing it up.

Really it was just the image of Deathleaper, the close combat shredder, manning a quad gun ala Han Solo that I just found too funny.

Death to Mephiston!

Mephiston has one wound remaining after getting pummeled by amassed special weapons. He boards an empty Land Raider and heads to the fray at mid-board. My trusty MM/HF speeder perches itself on top of a single story building, fires its MM over the ensuing melee and into the Land Raider. The Land Raider is penetrated by the blast, explodes (!), and Mephiston fails his 2+ armor save!

Not quite the carnage as most peoples stories but still amazing...

I had 1 tact marine with a heavy bolter holding an objective and my opponent had 2 tact holding an objective. I had to move to get into range and snap fired. 2 hits, 2 wounds, 2 failed saves. He lost the game by one objective as he had no other scoring units their holding it!

Won 2 objectives to 1.

Space Marines vs. Dark Eldar

My friend's razorwing jetfighter fired his splinter cannon at my bikers with artificer armour / storm shield captain in the front. He hit with 5 shots, wounded with all 5 of them and I rolled 6 ones in a row failing all my look out sir and 2+ save rolls.
Though I recovered nicely and the game ended with a tie I don't trust 2+ saves anymore.

A guardsman in my CCS finished off an Avatar in close combat once. Marneus Calgar eat your heart out.

Stupid guardsman throws a krak grenade at my full hp Nightwing. 6 to hit, 5 to pen, 6 to explode, 1 on my 2+ jink save....

DAMMIT! You beat me to it! I was watching that one and was amazed to see that Deathleaper take out the Dread! The visual of the scenario was awesome!

My most ridiculous kill was a slug out with an avatar of khaine vs. 7 plaguebearers. Nothing too exciting except for the fact that 5 plaguebearers remained after 3 rounds of duking it out with the beast.

Watched a tournament game a few weeks ago were a Tesla arc came off a unit of flamers and killed Fateweaver.
Lol.

one of my first 6th ed. games

I played a SM - guard infantry spam list just for fun, against CSM(5th codex)

his demon prince flies forward and is having lots of fun with the squishy guards in my army.
next turn ALL my units fire at the demon prince, missile launchers, snipers, plasma cannons, plasma guns and pistols and lots and lots of bolters doing ZERO damage. nothing.

then a lone vox-caster of my platoon command squad picks up his lasgun, fires some pot shots - and gone was the demon threat.
the guardsman is now promoted to meatshield - a great honor for him

also i've seen a tau gundrone kill a demon prince in CC, quite impressive..

trying to shoot at Kharn with plasma stuff blowing up all but Kharn.. overheat madness

playing a friendly game against a friend (CSM) for the first time with the boon table. he kills my sarge and i grant him his boon, but at equal initive i managed to kill him too

oh and the funniest moment must've been when I deepstriked my Deathleaper to shoot a [Eldar tank, dont know what one] in the rear, fail horribly, next turn the tank turn 180 degrees and instafries my Deathleaper. my turn, his rear armor is open for my entire army - small mistake for the eldar player - and some hive guard clear up the tank

gotta love those moments

5e doubles game, we had Nids+Ig VS Orks and Orks. Turn 4 of the game 3 KillKans take out a Chimera and most of the IG inside when it goes boom leaving 3 luck guards behind. On our turn figuring they are dead any way IG charge Kans. 2 phases later, 2 IG walk away from 3 exploded Kans. The one dead IG was to an explosion.

I think this has to go to one of my mates. he has three Guardsmen, one MeltaVet, one PlasmaVet and one standard Flashlight Infantryman.

The PlasmaVet has blew my Night Scythe out of the sky. two Snap Shots, one six one one. He saves the wound, and the Plasma Bolt penetrates, and I fail my Jink. Explodes.

The MeltaVet has, singularly, killed my DLord twice and my Foot Overlord three times, with overwatch fire.

And the Flashlight guy is best.

Killed Abaddon in CC.

In a sixth edition game, me and a mate were playing against, the chaos marines had 2 daemon princes, one of which was giving my mate a hard time, the other of which was winging towards my gunline. I fired at it, but it wasn't my only target, as my mate has an almost all deepstrike/outflank list, and I was alone for the first few turns.

I manage to reduce him to 2 wounds with some lucky shooting from a HWT, but he was just in range to assault. He tried assaulting, rolled short, and ended up an inch or two in front of a squad of guardsmen. So I pour every shot I can into the prince at this point, because I didn't feel like having my army shredded in CC. Nothing happens. I miss most of my shots, and those that hit, were easily ignored by the prince.

I was just about ready to resign the HWT and several others to painful death when my mate leaned over and reminded me I still had a sergeant who hadn't shot.
So I rolled to hit.
6
Rolled to wound
6
Guy takes a save
1
The daemon prince then failed his check to see if he falls down to the ground, and received an additional wound, which he failed to save. A single guard sergeant finished off the half-ton slab of anger that was about to murder them all.

I was playing a game with a kid who was really bad and had really bad sportsmanship. He kept saying all game how he was going to destroy all my tanks with a Hive Tyrant. I ran it over.

Taking out a Tau Tiger Shark with a single round of shooting from a single Deathwing Terminator's assault cannon in 5th Ed. Five sixes in a row.

Not a kill, but rather a tale of survival.

DE vs Chaos Marines.

The relevant part of the lists:

DE had 2 Raiders loaded with 10 Kabalite Warriors each - all stripped down splinter rifles; and a Venom with 4 Blaster TrueBorn with the dual splinter cannons.

That was up against 5 Chaos marines. The sergeant had rolled on the boon table and got a 2+ invulnerable save. They were strung out in a line with the sergeant up front.

Raiders moved up slowly and shot both DL: saved. They were within 12", so the Warriors opened up with twin linked poison shots. That would be 40: all saved. Venom, 12 shots: saved. Blaster Born: 4 shots: saved.

All said, that one sergeant, rolling one little die at a time dodged 52 splinter shots, 2 DL and 4 blasters. Amazingly about 80% of my shots actually made it to the point that he needed to make saves.

That game didn't go well for the DE; they were certainly schooled in the power of position.

My scouts are sitting in a forest full of razorwings. Suddenly, they see Abaddon coming at them! So, they fire their snipers in an attempt to save themselve. They miss. Abaddon enters the difficult terrain.....and is promptly killed by the razorwing nest..........snipers are relieved they weren't destroyed.

Having another practice session with my brother, we both use IG.

His army had a Heavy weapons team, a vet squad (or two?) and a Leman Russ tank with Battle cannon and Pask.

I had 2 vet squads, a CCS, and a Chimera.

For most of the game, my brother just parked his tank way in the back and just used it as artillery.

The last few turns ended up with my CCS having crossed all the way across the battle field, facing the tank, heavy weapon, and a Vet squad.

My CCS, instead of assaulting the tank, used it as cover by sneaking around it and tossing 5 frag grenades. Three of them hit, and he fails his Leadership sending his full strength (well not anymore) Vet squad and Heavy Weapon squad running off the map.

His tank then proceeds to blow 3 of the 5 models, leaving the commander, and a vet Falling back. They successfully regroup the next turn, then charge the tank. With my Commanders powerfist, he scores 1 wound, reducing the tank to 2 life. The next turn, he drives his tank back and unloads of my squad, and kills my vet, and sends my commander to 1 wound left. I roll Snake Eyes on the Ld test, and I scream out something funny involving Never surrendering and have him charge. He scores 2 wounds...and stands victorious, the only man left on the table.

For me1; Cadian hvy wep team clubbed a lone wolf in tda to death with the mortar tube after surviving the charge. i lol'd..

Just because I cant think of a kill in a game of warhammer 40K here's on from Dawn of war 1, Ig Vs Chaos, used cure of the machine spirit on a predator, then blew it up with an assassin in one shot, repeated with a defiler.
Hers another one in the campaign, the tau mission where you have to kill the ethreal (might have spelled it wrong) managed to do it with an assassin because he walked into range.

i've got a few stories...

the first, in a 5th ed game my DE Vs chaos, (1750pts i think...) my incubi go on the rampage and kill half the chaos army on ther own - 10 plague mariens 5 termies, 10 odd other marines and other stuff i can't remember- it hurt to say the least, and they were still near their full starting strength at the end of the game!

in a multiplayer match (5th) a cheeky plague marien blew my baneblade up with one meltagun shot (Jammy )


a 6th ed one- last week i got roped into a intro game- me and another club member facing 3 potnetial new recruits to our club (we had 1500 each (GK and Necrons ) they had 1k each for 3k per side (tau, chaos marines and blood angels) )

they got first turn (apparently as we were supposed to play "nice" cough ) turn 2 arrives, dante and 5 sanguinary guard drop behind my GK, toast one of my rifleman dreads (here we go...). Our turn my GK move into shooting positions, mr necron brings his flyer on and drops 15 necorn immortals out as an insurance policy anyway after the sanguinary got killed by my GK (20 odd GKs and a landraider plus the remaning rifleman dread...) the immortals opened- up bye bye Mr dante

it was ridiclous as when said player elected to deploy them there we did point out (to be nice... ) that it wasn't a good idea to place them there we go the 2+ save cocky reply, despite the tau player knowing what he was doing (decent palyer in the making there) and he said the same thing... as that player pointed out 500 or so points out the window to 135...

This was back in 5th.

I recently started playing my Blood Angels and had a Librarian with jumppack as my HQ choice.
The 2 powers I took from the codex were "Fear of the Darkness" (24" leadership -2 modifier) and "Shield of Sanguinus" (5+ coversave).

The game was against a friend of mine who brought his Necrons.

In my first turn of shooting I shot my Fear against a group of warriors (20) and they fail their leadership, 2D6 roll and run of the table, hilarious.

He than took his revenge with his Overlord on a barge, he had a psychic power that can take over a vehicle within 18".
My vindicator came under his control and he shot at a 10 man Assault Squad, hit all, killed all

Never run a vindicator behind my troops again after that

Plague Zombie Aspiring Champ beat a Noise Marine Aspiring Champ in a duel. Then next round, the same Plague Zombie Champ beat the fully tooled up Slaanesh Sorcerer those Noise Marines were toting around in a duel.

Thats why I love Ward sometimes...

*ducks under the first thing thrown*

Best bit? Anrakyr's power isn't psionic. He just does it on a 4+.

I love Necrons.

An amusing story; my brother brings on his Razorwings again. "Hey, I have a full rack of missiles left!" he declares in frustration at the end of that turn.

"Not any more. Anrakyr uses Mind in the Machine on the Razorwing! Three Monoscythes at the Guard blob!"

(this was 5th, when you could still fire all your missiles at once, obviously).

Plasma Cannon taking out basically all the Chaos units in the Dark Vengeance box set every time my girlfriend and I play. -_-

< Taken by the void dragon. >

1st edition.

All that is left is 1 squad of 10 guardsmen with lasguns & 1 shot (unused) auxilary krak grenade launchers vs a squad of 5 eldar rangers plus an avatar ready to charge next turn.

Declare split fire, 5 on rangers & 5 on avatar. Rangers behind cover (5's to hit), need 6's to wound avatar.

Guess how that went

Best kill i had was by my Marshall and his command squad against my friends Tau.

Drop pod assault my Marshal(combi plas) and his command squad (2plasma guns) to alpha strike his eldar allies manning a quad gun, which fails horribly as i only hit with 2 plasma shots and had to roll gets hot with the others which kill one initiate.

On his turn, the squad barely survives all his shooting with only my marshall and the remaining plasma gunner left alive. He decides to charge me with 2 crisis suit teams (one of which was his 2nd HQ crisis suit cmdr).

Combat resolves, I save all his attacks while my initiate kills a drone. He then rolls 10s on his ld check on both squads, one of which falls back off the board and the other one getting killed by sweeping advance.

Was my first decisive win with my templars this edition.

1 Terminator Chapter Master w/ Power Mace. Rest of my army is gone, he still has plenty of troops and 1 dread in his Ad Mech army. I decide to charge the dread. Lose 2 of my 3 wounds to heavy bolter overwatch. Need 6's to glance. Don't hit it once. His dread swings, hits, and wounds, with two shots. Continue for 14 turns (let it go over turn limit just for fun). Eventually kill dread. Instantly shot by 35+ guardsmen.

I once had a sole surviving tactical marine rapid fire 2 Chaos Terminators and killed them both.

I had a GK storm raven come in next to my squad of long fangs and kill all but one. He passed his leadership test, and with his lascannon managed to blow the darn thing up! It crashed and 3 surviving PAGKs come out and assault my lone rune priest who held them off in combat. Meanwhile, Arjac and a squad of wolf guard marched through 3 GK termie squads, which my Lone wolf joined in defeating the final squad!

Usually, my dice seem to hate me. I roll lots of 2s for some reason.

Necron Lord with Mindshackle scarabs is in position to assault my Orks... Old Zogswort turns him into a Squig

My Ork Trukk is immobilised. A unit of Kroot are causing trouble from with cover in nearby woods.
My Grot manages to fix the Trukk.
Next Turn I Tank Shock the Kroot and the whole unit run off the table.

Night Scythe zoom across table, uses its Tesla Destructor on a Rhino and blows it up, with the explosion taking out the nearby Warlord who was on his last wound

This last Saturday's tournament. 1750 points, my Necrons vs IG and CSM (allies). Mission is purge the alien.

The result is pretty much a win for me, but he had a vendetta loaded with Meltavets that could pretty much turn the game if it did it's job.

AB fires at the vendetta and fails miserably. Immortals can't touch it's 12 AV front. A unit of 9 warriors and a LanceTek that just OWNED a demon prince with rapid fire last turn after it destroyed the Ghost Ark look up in the sky:
- LanceTek rolls 6 to hit
- LanceTek rolls 6 to penetrate
- Vendetta fails it's Jink save
- LanceTek rolls 5 (AP2, baby!) for result
- Vendetta crashes, and NOT EVEN ONE vet survives the crash. 2 VPs just like that.

That Cryptek is getting some major paint scheme

Edit: Oh, and 3 warriors managed to hold a chaos spawn 4 turns. What a epic duel of fails

Edit2: This game was hilarious. Just remembered his unit of 3 terminators attempts to deep strike behind one my AB, fails, rolls on mishap, they are reserves again. Next turn they deepstrike, dangerous terrain "Oh, no problem" Rolls save, 2 pass, 1 x . "Ah, I'll just armour save, no problem!" "..." - Not only that, both combi-meltas missed

30 man DKOK infantry squad gets attacked by a trygon. He kills 3 guardsmen due to some bad rolls. The guardsmen get 1 wound but have 3 Platoon Infantry Standards in the squad. Trygon loses combat, fails LD check, and gets chased down by the guardsmen. I Lold.

I was once fighting grey knights and 5 terminators tried to kill my boys squad of 20, 18 sluggas, 2 big shootas and the big shootas missed and to make a long story short a boy with a slugga BS 2 managed to kill a Grey Knight terminator!

GK(me) vs. Tyranids. Really close and frantic game, with wounds going absolutely everywhere. I played a Purifier List (Not spam).

Eventually in the middle of a the board a Trygon pops out. Not too bad, I have a squad of Purifiers with Halberds and a Psycannon. I shoot it, dealing no wounds. I go for a charge and roll, only to find myself out by a half an inch. Fak.

Next turn it shoots me, killing 4 of the Purifiers, leaving the Psycannon. It charges the Psycannon Purifier.

4 Assault later the Trygon lies dead from the single Purifier that failed every single Cleansing Flame roll and simply bashed it to death with the back end of the Psycannon.

Won me the game, actually, as if he died I would've lost by one, but since I killed the Trygon I won by 1. 'twas glorious.

Baring that, first game of the new Dark Eldar. I had an empty Raider with a Shock Prow, Aether Sails etc. My friend had a LRC full of Terminators going towards my objective. On the other end of the table. So I did the onyl reasonable thing. I declared a Ram.

I roll my Aethersails. Max. So I end up sailing 36" towards the Land Raider. Turns out that was roughly the exact measurement I needed (35.75). I ram the Land Raider. I get a penetrating hit.

I roll for damage. 6. Explodes. Roll for damage for Terminators. 5 wounds. Friend rolls dice. Five 1's. Everyone who was watching was just screaming. It was amazing.

Regular, un-upgraded commissar challenges a LC armed Termi Wolf Guard, wins, then next round kills the two remaining Grey Hunters.

Leman Russ fires BC at gaunt blob, scatters, hits friendly Scout Sentinel, said Sentinel explodes, kills 14 gaunts.

In a game back in 4th ed, my Black Templars Assault squad took out a Defiler with one plasma pistol shot to the back. It was a good day.

I had my Mephiston turned into a squig by Zogwort.

My opponent then seemed hat it was appropriate to smash Mephy into mist with a Mega Dread.

Lucarikx

Was at a tournament yesterday had a squad of deathwing termies with 2 cyclone missile launchers in it. I deep struck them next to Crowe from the opponents Grey Knights, I shot him with missiles and did nothing, he charges me with Crowe and I fire krak missiles on over watch 3 of 4 wound and instant kill him to give me first blood.

Unfortunately, this is impossible.

Old Zog can only squig Independent Characters, and Mephy lacks that rule.

Mega-stomping him i'm all for though

I got a couple:

Sixth Ed. Game, Footdar vs. my Chaos Daemons. Bloodthirster lands on a flank. Dire Avengers proceed to themselves, unload on the greater daemon. I took zero wounds. I go into them with the fury only Khorne can produce!... and he had shimmershields. Not a single elf died that day and the bloodthirster got sissy slapped to death by Dire Avengers. All I can see is a bloodthirster getting tickled to death, then bored, and port back to warp.

======================================================

Fifth ed game, played a 1750 SW vs IG game, me being the SW. First turn, he moves a Vendetta in a terrain piece behind a tall building for cover. Vendetta fails immobilized test, was turbo boosting, explodes and kills the guys on the inside (or to some effect, this was when I was super new to the game). He con cedes Turn 1, we reset and go again. I then showed him what Lone Wolves good two. One guy in TDA, SS, CF goes running straight into the tank wall of Russes and Chimeras. He takes 3 turns of shooting, a massive pile of failed dice were stacked to the side as I shrugged off the entirety of a 1750 IG list with one guy.

I finally make into his line, walk through a squadron of Russes and then get assaulted by some guardsmen. Those 10 dudes proceeded to ravage my Lone Wolf with the burning hatred of a thousand million suns and he failed a massive stack of saves as he was drawn and quartered.

He exclaimed his jubilation... then he learned what Grey Hunters did when they got that close...

======================================================

Sixth Ed Game, had a Chaos Sorcerer bonk my fully powered Destroyer Lord on the head, wound him, and force weapon him into oblivion. My opponent laughs at my misfortune, rolls his well deserved boon, and his mighty sorcerer turns into a chaos spawn.

======================================================

Sixth Ed Game, SW vs BA, I blew up a LRC with TLLC from my razorbacks, melting a few of the termies, the rest dying to GH bolter fire. I charged Mephiston with a TDA/SS/CF Long Wolf who proceed to laugh at his force sword and krumped him... the final straw for my poor opponent, a drop pod filled with BA vets (w/e they are) and two named dudes is placed dead in my rear. Then it scatters off the table, rolls a 1, and that's that. This was a tournament game.

In my first game, I'm playing Orks in a 3 way Orks vs Orks vs Dark Angels. The other Ork player has 10 Lootas which shoot down my Dakka Jet. The jet crashes into a mob of Marines and kills 7 of them and takes a librarian with it.

Played this weekend, BT vs Orks. My Black Tide (10 Inis, 10 Neos, EC, and MoS) got charged by, in this order, Warboss/Painboy/5 Nobz, then 20 Boyz/Nob, and finally 3 Warbikes/Nob. The Weirdboy got a WHAUUGGH, then got Ere We Go, it was ridiculous. All inside a ruined building; I just couldnt get out of it.

Black Tide wiped them all out. Only the Emperor's Champion and a lone Initiate survived. They consolidated into the field roughly 10 inches away from the 10 Boy Shoota squad in an Aegis/Quad, praying I at least got the EC into an assault. And three days later theyre still sitting on the table.

Of course, my shooty squad, my two Typhoons, AND my Stormtalon got killed, but it was an epic battle nonetheless.

For me, I had 10 Grey Knights and a Brotherhood Champion in a Storm Raven. Along comes a Deamon Prince rocking the Black Mace. He vector strikes rips open the armor of the hovering Storm Raven and sends all 11 men to the ground. The squad's justicar doesn't make it. On my turn I had all 10 remaining storm bolters fire into the Swooping Deamon Prince. I gound him but don't wound him, then assault and make the distance. The Deamon Prince kills every last man in the squad in the 1st round of combat. The Champion makes the ultimate sacrifice and takes the Deamon Prince with him.

Just felt like an epic encounter.

I had a single Terminator survive 4 rounds in assault against about 20 gargoyles. Killing 12 before he died while in assault. After that the remaining gargoyles got squashed by a friendly Stormtalon that came crashing down on them.

I know that feel, then she felt like she was amazing because she was taking out my chosen every match

Two I did and one that happened to me

First, I had a squad of guardsmen kill the lord of change in melee

Later, also in 5th I had a brutal game of BT vs CSM. By turn 6 all that was left was a terminator with an assault cannon and a chaos dreadnought. I fired the assault cannon at the dread. Got one hit, rolled a six to pen, so rending, then rolled a six and won the game.

Another 5th game, I charged 8 death company and a chaplain into 5 ogryns and a lord commissar. The DC slaughter the ogryns in a single turn, then the commissar proceeds to make every invulnerable save he is called on to make and slaughters the entire unit of death company.

For 6th edition, my most memorable kill was a 5 man tac terminator squad being charged by a fortuned Avatar. Not only did they not suffer a single casualty the first round, they managed to put 2 wounds on the Avatar. Next round saw only a single terminator die, while his mates put the big guy down for the count! I made a total of four 5++ saves in the first round, and the Avatar only hit once in the 2nd round!!

The worst kill to happen to me was against Necrons, when I deepstruck a unit of Terminators with Lysander in his line next to his Doomsday Ark. They survive a round of fire largely unscathed (Lysander took a wound). In my next turn, I decided to get greedy and split Lysander off to go after his Royal Court while the regular termies took down the Doomsday Ark. The regular termies did their job, but not only did Lysander fail to reach the Royal Court with his charge, he ended up dying to overwatch fire (three, count 'em, THREE failed saves out of three wounds)! Absolutely humiliating!

I would say my most obnoxious kill I ever got was I had a demon prince charge my 3 man heavy destroyer squad. The DP had one wound left. He rolled abysmal hits and wounds and killed two heavy destroyers. I then fought back with my last heavy destroyers one attack and hit and wounded having to use preferred enemy on the to hit roll of a 1. the DP failed his final save and died. Normally this kill would just be a foot note in my mind of an unlucky DP, but then I mad both RP rolls returning the Heavy Destroyer squad to pre-combat strength.

The only guardsman I had left took down the opponents two terminators with one rapid fire shot

Killed an Ork Warboss with a single Ripper swarm base.

Mine was in my first game I ever played, sm v nids. By turn three one of my tac squads was reduced to only the Sargent left he got swarmed by those little nid cannonfodder things (I can never remember their name). It was pretty awesome. It took them four turns to finally bring him down but he took a few of them out in the process.

I sent a marine tactical squad to a flank to lure a land raider away from my main assault. The whole squad got wiped out bar one marine with a meltagun, he fired one shot and destroyed the land raider, and survived the rest of the game.

I hope you repainted that guy to be Master Chief XD

SAG aimed at berserkers in line of sight double 6's. scattered onto a land raider and exploded it and killed two termies.

5 man scout squad armed with sniper rifles beat the Sanguinor to death after he charged them..

Very recent and well kinda not my kill but Ill share.

Today in a >1500 game, playing space marine vs new Chaos daemons. had cleared almost all of the enemy's model off the field as he had killed almost all of my models, and had i believe what was a daemon price of nurgle (had like 6-7 wounds and iron arm from biomancy (basically wasn't going to hurt it)) but at the beginning of his shooting phase he rolled a 3 iirc getting punished for like 6 wounds back into the warp tabling him self. clearly tzeench was having way too much fun

I was playing IG versus space marines, we had one objective in the middle of the field, most of my units were either in the ruins by the objective trying to kill the 2 tac squads nearby or dumping auto cannon rounds into some deep striking assault marines. The game begins to get close the end, when I move my ccd into the ruins where my enemy had just deployed his termies. My company commander whips out his las pistol and one-shots a termie

My HQ is a barebones SM Libby and quite a pacifist by nature. He never kills anything in CC and does nothing all game besides casting Null Zone, Avenger and dying at some point.

In a recent game against Tyranids, he is alone (not attached in a squad) and charged by 12 gargoyles.
Surprisingly, he passes all armor saves, heroically survivng, but as usual scores no wounds. Of course, we remained locked in combat and this goes on for 3 turns!!!
During the fourth turn, after the passes all saves (again!!) he decides to kill 2 gargoyles thus winning combat! As i had removed synapse creatures from around, the gargoyles lose the morale chack and the Libby single-handed proceeds to sweep them off the board!!

My most epic and proudest moment was in a Massive Chaos vs Imperium (me) APOC 5th edition Game between myself and a friend. In the Final turns of the battle, there was hardly any units left, both armies had layed waste to each other and the battlefield was full of death. The Imperium still held onto the gates of the city with a a squad of imperial guardsmen, Captain Awesome and his command squad and a few scattered space marines.Earlier in the game, Abaddon entered the field of battle with his retinue of terminators which had slowly been picked off over turns and they managed beat off multiple CC engagement. Abaddon drew ever closer to the gates of the city, into the charge range of my commanders position. The last defending squad of guardsmen charged out of their building to interrupt Abaddon's quest to kill Captain Awesome. The Seargeant drew his las pistol, and fired at Abaddon, hoping to draw his attention away from the Commander. Luckily for the Sergeant (and indeed the whole Imperium), Abaddon had 1 wound left, and his las pistol shot managed to penetrate the vital region between his legs and take away his last wound.

The remainder of the Chaos forces retreated from the ruined world, Imperial reinforcements arrived, and Abaddons head was placed atop the City Gates.

It was a beautiful game...

Well in the last 1500 pts. game against Ultramarines, i was trying to get my ethereal killed.
He finally got charged by a 3-man assault marine squad and i was sure he'd meet his doom.
But then what happened.. He killed 2 of the 3 assault marines and didnt take a single wound.
One marine even had a powerfist too, he hit with one of his attacks, but rolled a 1 to wound.
The single marine then failed the test and was forced to fall back. He was then shot to pieces by firewarriors.

All of this didn't really matter anymore, i won by a Wipe-out.

One Zoanthrope charges 10 chaos marines, and after making all of his 3++ saves, does 2 wounds, makes them fall back and sweeping advances them

Ummm... I would have to say when my Dark Eldar Duke sliscus lost in close combat to eight fire warriors. He had to take ONE 2+ invulnerable save...

Space Marine Captain on a bike charges a 12-man squad of Fire Warriors. Overwatch deals him three wounds, of which he fails two. In assault, he whiffs every attack, and one lucky punch from a Warrior knocks him out cold.

My Eldar Pathfinders did snipe a fleeing Weirdboy once and wounded him. Didn't kill him, the snake eyes on the random power table causing another pair of wounds finished him off.

< Taken by the void dragon. >

Under 3rd or 4th rules, I once had a unit of Gretchin with two Kannons destroy the Necron player's monolith first shot of first turn of the game on a glance and 6.

The same player and I played a very close Space Wolves vs. Tyranids game in which the last three turns were basically my tyrant, psionics and tons of attacks, failing miserably to do anything but tear all the weapons off his lone remaining model, a LR Exterminator. Which proceeded to kill the tyrant at the last possible moment by double 6 to hit and then wound, and me failing two 2+ saves to the stupid pintle storm bolter: the one weapon left.

Last game against CSM, my friend had a brand new Heldrake. It came in in turn 2 and killed my Hornet. In my turn 3 i snap fired it with my Shaken Wave Serpent tlBL and threw a 6 straight up. He failed his save, and again, i threw a 6! BOOM! Altough i lost the game in the end, i will savior the moment...priceless...

Had a game back in 4th. I played tyranids against guard.

My brood of 3 biovores gets shoot to pieces by a scout sentinal. The sentinel assaults the last remaining biovore.

He does 1 wound, i save on a 6. 1 attack back:

Hits on a 6.
Glans on a 6.
Destroyed it on a 6.

And the explosion fails to wound the biovore.

He got so mad... He still gets mad, when we talk about it, even though it's 5 years ago :-D

A fleeing grotling snaps shoots at one of my terminator, wounds him and then I fail his armor save, next turn he proceeds to run himself off the board.

Not ever 5 minute late, 3 LC terminator assault trought cover against 4 grotling, they strike first, manage 2 wounds, and then I roll snake eyes.

This whole match went so badly it was really funny.

Back with the awesome 3.5 CSM 'dex, i once ran an UBER-CHEESE squad of Chosen Aspiring champions, all with power weapons, and Daemonic Mutation (+1 A), all as a bodyguard for my insanely overpowered cheesefest of a Daemon Prince. All marked with Khorne, each and every one a game-breaking combat character....my buddy charged in with maybe....50 points of Grots (so like 20 or so?).

It was over in 1 turn....all 5 of my chosen were swamped and failed about a bagillion saves....and Prince Beardy's Dreadaxe failed to wound anything, and he was brought down screaming.

They just dont make water hot enough to wash off that kind of shame.

wish they had this thread in general rather than 40k because I have some truly ridiculous kills/deaths in LotR, but hey.
Had Yarrick charge and slowly kill Sicarius and his entire command squad. He just kept on getting up

Most epic I've had was Lemartes...

Vs 'nids, 2k,

The BA were nearly crushed on turn 3. The DC makes it to the battle. Lemartes jump DC squad was nearly popped by genestealers, but retaliated leaving Lemartes wounded and only two fellow DC left. They consolidated into some terrain facing a swarm of termigaunts (12).

They shot on their turn and didn't get any wounds as their remaining bugmonsters started moving back across the table toward them. The gaunts assaulted and were wiped as I rolled all hits and all wounds.

The DC consolidated toward the tervigon (still over a foot away). Leaped to him and due to furious charge, gave the bug a bunch of wounds to deal with in the dead pile...consolidated back from those psychic bugs with a S10 hit.

They moved in and killed one of the last two DC, but Lemartes leaped in again and killed them, then boldly moved toward mawloc.

Mawloc assaulted and rolled like ubershite and caused only one wound which went to Lemartes who made the save. The DC retaliated and only scored a few wounds. The nids remaining forces were hiveguardand they even moved toward the fray. The follow up assault phase proved no different as Mawloc only landed 1 hit from craptastic rolling...even the hive guard who assaulted in nabbed two wounds that were saved. Mawloc's wound killed the remaining DC and Lemartes turned on the beast hitting 5/6 times and getting 4 sixes on the wound...dude was pissed. The big worm was done and the hive guard were toast the last turn of the game.

Dude was a beast.

I had an Aenonstave hit AND WOUND a deamon prince once... The Chaosplayer raged... xD

3rd edition, 1st turn Whirlwind shot onto a Raider full of a tricked out Archon with loaded Incubus squad. Open topped skimmer that hadn't moved yet, penetrating hit 6. Transport and all models destroyed, game essentially over.

I had a friend playing necrons with the old codex back in 5th. His monoliths were notoriously hard to kill. He would usually just run them up and vaporize my army while his troops hid behind them.
One game he has two monoliths moving up the table side by side with 2 blobs of 20 warriors tight up behind them all well covered thanks to terrain layout. It looks like all hope is lost and I will lose to essentially an army of two monoliths. I fire my last remaining(immobilized) vindicator at the monolith on the right, and it scatters perfectly to hit both monoliths and a bunch of the guys behind them. The center hole of the template actually touched both monoliths hulls, as they were right up against each other to prevent me from shooing between them. Not only that, I BLOW UP BOTH MONOLITHS! After the wounds from the vindicator and the exploding monoliths are resolved, I killed all but a few necron warriors. Now no longer in cover, my few remaining marines mop them up, and it causes him to phase out! It wasn't only the greatest single shot of my whole gaming career, it was also my greatest come back.

In a tournament , I shot at a daemon prince with 6 bolt pistols and killed it , I handed him 4 wounds with insane rolling ( gobs of 6s) and he missed all 4 saves and to add to it , it turned sure a loss into a draw , it was the last shooting of the game on the last turn .
