Didn't happen to me, but I heard about it:

The sinking feeling you get when you keep all your troops in reserve, and your opponent lines up infiltrating Kroot all along your table edge, so you lose the game before it has begun because you can't bring your army on!

You decide to start painting again after a 3 month coffe-break, and you manage to paint a grot's pistol and one of his arms before you get bored of it again.

Lol ok.

The guy that I was talking about goes to my FLGS (so that is how I know this story). This happened a while ago, during either 4th or 5th WHFB I think. He was playing as Dark Elves, facing against Skaven. The very first thing he did was move his dragon into those guys with the big flails (don't remember the name). So, they took a Terror test. They group failed, and ran off the board.

As it turned out, his entire army was just within the distance needed to take a Fear test because of that one unit that broke. So one by one, his opponent took LD tests, and one by one he failed them, until all of his units were off the table. So, my friend won that game merely by moving his dragon. That was also the only thing to happen that game.

After that, he told the opponent to have a rematch, because it was a stupid way to lose

I'd be a good fight, as the monoliths wouldn't be DS'ing alone, plus the portals still work for any that survive a round of shooting

Ah, thanks.

When you see your brother's Genestealer squad get killed by a Guardsman squad in CC.
It turns out my brother rolls really high when attacking. He was getting a crapload of 's. I mean, 5 'Stealers, and when he rolls he ends up dealing 3 rending attacks. But he could not get an armor save to save his life.

If that had been my sergeant, I would have bought him a new command squad box just for him.
