Tough Tyrant Guard





My own little happy place

Well my 4th edition carnifexes T7 W5 2+ armor saves Delicious especially when I'd tag team with my eldar friend, few things are as terrifying as 3 carnifexes backed up by 3 wraithlords a farseer, harliquens dancing around their feet an Avatar of khaine plus 2 tyrants with guards. you'll be needing more lascannons. when that ball of death hit lines it was over.

I tried being normal but it's boring so now I'm back to being insane

Recently, my Shock Attack Gun Big Meks. With Ammo runts, if I roll anything scary I can just re-roll. I feel pretty safe dropping AP2 Large Blast templates on top of 10 Marines or termies and watching an entire squad get killed from one shot. Last game I played, I was playing against chaos and there were 2 rounds of shooting that were just glorious. One I fired on a defiler and rolled 11 for the guns strength. Strength 10 weapon on top of a defiler, destroying it. 2 turns later , 2 loota squads popped open 2 rhino's, out come khorne berserkers and CSM's; one big mek fires on the berserkers, rolls an 8; instant deathing everyone under the template.. Next SAG fires a blast template on the CSM's; double 6's. Back to the warp they go.

Well he only killed that many nids because we play once a week and its usually me and an ultramarine player in a 2V1 against the nids.

we usually play 2 or 3k points per side, 2 force org charts and give the single nid guy 2 FoC at 1000 to 1500 points each so the points of the battle are even.

Yes they have. Sometimes, they kill next to nothing in a game. But overall, they definitely make their points back! They are my most successful unit, EVER!!! Lol!

Though, I have recently started fielding the Khorne Lord with deamon weapon, and in 6 games he only ever rolled a 1 once!

As I remember from afore-mentioned occurence, lots of 1s form the Ork players and lots of armor saves from me for several turns. It was pretty stupid. They seemed to do really well whenever cheap mobs attacked though. I also remember them taking a 5-man terminator squad down to 1 before getting wiped. I can just envision them swinging their MLs like giant baseball bats...
