Rage only means you have to move, run, and consolidate towards the nearest enemy. You don't have to charge if you don't want to, and you can charge whatever you want, not just the closest enemy unit.

hate? Tervigons. I've seen two of them go for entire games without blowing out their ovaries, giving my opponent close to 400-500 extra points worth of gants and keeping me from getting to the important stuff. HATE THEM SO SO SO MUCH.

I hate everything my brother fields on the battlefield. Be they Tactical Marines, Fire Warriors or Imperial Guardsmen, I hate them all equally when my brother picks up their codex and asks for a game.

Although, no matter whom I face, I personally hate PRELIMINARY BOMBARDMENTS.

Many and varied forces in progress according to waxing & waning whims.

I may never finish an army in my life.

I saw a game where about 50 gaunts spawned out of a tervigon...and all got sweeped by TWO tactical marines, which then got killed by 3 gaunts that spawned later.

Maybe it's just my dice, but they cost way more than my plague marines kitted out, couldn't hit a broad side of a barn, and really have only ever been good for tying up things in assault.

That IG chimera variant with the 2+ poisoned flamer weapon thing, especially the way the rules allow you to position the template (you know, as long as the big end is further away than the little end you can orient it any way you like)!

Only the Hellhound flamer does that, the Banewolf's weapon if placed like any other template weapon.

Space Wolves in general. I would refuse to play against a WAAC space wolf list in a friendly game all together. Their concept and their execution is something I will always hate, along with their rules.

I hate Trygons and Mawlocs, I hate mephiston, I WOULD hate monoliths, but at the current time, they are easily bypassable, and slow.

I am scared of TH/SS and a bit ancy around shock attack guns, wraithlords 2 wounds let them down enough for them not to worry me, and I eat land raiders for breakfast, so I am fearless, apart from all of the above

People in my local group hate my harlequins, fire dragons and my wraithlord(s) if im using them.
Often targetting them to the detriment of their game.

Personally i hate pain boyz in nob units, but thats nothing a little mind war doesn't fix. But then again i also hate taking mind war and generally getting my farseer out of his vehicle.

I love the humble hydra is squads of two. Move one, smoke, fire other. Move other, smoke, fire one. Or just sit them still and blast the living crap out of monstrous creatures.

I hate Sternguard vets. They get to choose what they're going to throw at you, and most of them run with plasma cannons. I can't even count how many guardsmen I've lost to them.

If one vehicle in a squadron moves the whole squadron is considered to be moving. The shooter hydra in this scenario only gets two shots.

Anyway, hate: Monoliths. Against my army they're far less threatening than Land Raiders, but they were big when I got started and they're still on my list of units that my army has to be able to deal with.

Love: Basilisks. They're just so cool even if they are pretty hit or miss in actual play.
