Towards the end of 4th edition:

My Tau vs Necrons.

I had a stealth suit team that was in range of the big blast from a monolith.

BOOM! He wipes out 5/6 suits, with the one I keep being the Shas'vre with a Fusion Blaster (Meltagun).

After seeing his friends killed off, he proceeds to go crazy.
-Passes his leadership
-Shoots the Monolith, rolling a 6 to pen (AP 1 used to mean glance -> pen)
-Blows up the Monolith
-Charges the 20 man squad of Necron Warriors next to it
-Kills 1, suffers no wounds so he wins combat
-Necrons flee
-He catches them in a sweeping advance

610 points of damage done during his rampage.

Unfortunately, someone watching pointed out that he couldn't charge the Warriors because he had shot at the Monolith. We put the Warriors back, who then proceeded to obliterate the lone stealth suit :(

Oh, one of the more memorable kill thingies that I forgot earlier. After having my terminators suck in the same combat, not to mention dying to simple storm bolters before the combat even began, my Master of Sanctity went nuts and killed 6 or 7 GK terminators with his power fist, though he also got killed himself at the same time.

5th ed Defiler fired at a unit of 6 chaos bikes and chaos lord with MoK. Direct hit, but only 1 wound. Gets put on the Lord. Fails his ward save, puff

Just got one in sixth edition:

Celestine is basically chasing my buddy's space marines around, till his vanguard squad and chaplain, which just took out a squad of Repentia with one wound on the chaplain in a turn come up for a scrape. Celestine takes out five and sweeps the rest. High point of an otherwise gakky game for me.

Can I ask how you swept a squad of space marines?

Random Imperial Guard Lieutenant punks Abaddon with a laspistol. Gets killed by the remaining Chaos Terminators that survived.

Where a squad of Vets with Carapace and a LC with a Grenade Launcher and a sniper killed an entire squad of Chaos Marines (10) in a round of shooting and then proceeded to lose three men in three rounds of combat against a squad of Raptors and then proceeded to hold a vital objective against the enemy Marines for long enough to win the Game.
Marbo. He has saved my hide more times than possible, but one good example was that my opponent had over-lapping fields of fire and was on hill and had a Factory behind them and an Aegis Defense line. Marbo landed on the bridge of the Factory and threw the Charge, killing two bikes, a terminator and forced a squad of soldiers to flee. But the best thing was he killed a Librarian in combat for only one wound in return.
this wasn't me, but I had Belial on two wounds and the enemy had one normal Space Marine. I charged, got shot for a wound, didn't get hit and then killed Belial.
Also in 5th, I killed Carnifex with a missile shot in the first turn, and then my Devastator Squad slaughtered a Guard unit, a Tyranid Hormagaunt unit and still held an objective.
I love my Dark Angels

Third Edition - Shotgun Scouts at the second LA GT. They managed to assault the rear of a Chimera (with an Armored Fist squad embarked) and proceeded to punch the Chimera (slight exaggeration) so hard that it was destroyed. And with my Scouts blocking the only hatch, the squad inside was cooked (not an exaggeration!).

Either that, or those same plucky little shotgun scouts gunning down Abaddon's retinue (three dead terminators) then giving Mr, Heresy himself a black eye (1 wound).

One base of nurglings (12 points of swarm) Takes out a tervigon, after surviving 3 rounds of combat.

Big mek shock attack gun killed gaz and nob squad with a double 6, won me the game.

I'm never very good at remembering these, but recently against DE with my RW DA force a zooming DE bomber (voidraven?) was about 1" from two lone RW bikes, the only survivors of their squad. Both had PG, so I figured, what the hey and fired at the Raven. I rolled 4 6's to hit, proceeded to get a pen and a glance, rolled a "5" on the pen (+1, so a "6"), and brought the bomber down in a massive explosion! Epic.

My Inquisitor sniping a Terminator Chaplain with his Infernus Pistol in Overwatch.

Just recently while a friend was home on leave, we decided to switch armies for the night. He used my Imperial Fists (Which I know longer own) and I used his Dark Eldar. I managed to take a squad of warriors against 5 termies and wipe them out from his terrrrrrrrrible rolling. Even better was that it took 3 turns for the combat to finish up, so I got to tie up a good chunk of his army :-)

It happened tonight! Nob is fighting 1v1 with Draigo through the challenge, they both survive the first round of fighting I scored 2 wounds on Draigo and he scored none on the nob, though his palas killed everything in my nobs unit. Next turn I move my warboss near the fight and intervene, killed draigo with one fell swoop!

6th edition, i was palying with the BA against my friend's dark angels and one of my scouts went into close combat and cut a terminator's head clean off.

5th edition, still 3d edition crons book, my Nightbringer went down slaying a buttload of marines, first a land raider smashed up, nice and easy, what was in it? 6 terminators with their terminator HQ and sadly enough all of them had lightning claws (str 4 that's cute) so he munched those up as well, not being satisfied he turned a Vindicator to dust and then my opponent decided to give up. (Nightbringer roughly killed 700+ points)

6th edition, My Hulk (Destroyer Lord) really didn't like some punk-ass assault marines squad thinking they were cool and turned them to mush, he was alone and faced of 10 assault marines and their guiding chaplain. So much fun.

6th edition, My Nightbringer C'tan shard had a clear shot at a dread first turn, shot it to smithereens in turn one, the dread didn't even move, which was kinda epic, since those points were like lost in the warp.

This guy was cheating in an apoc game, so I pulled out my knife....

Wait. Woah! You mean what was the best unit kill I got.

Baneblade with deepstriking sterguard that killed themselves in the resulting apocalyptic explosion. Yeah. That kind of kill. Totally knew what you meant.

a new one for me that happened a couple of days ago, although more of a great performance than singular kill.
My storm talon despite getting delayed till turn 3 managed to kill; a flying HT with TL devs, 2 trygon primes with regen and 2 hiveguard, after the battle I worked out that the stormtalon had killed 890pts in a 1500pt game and had paid for itself nearly 6 times over

I bet he was so peed off haha. I assume when he had his roll the rest of the squad smushed him with powerfists?

Having a GK Strike Squad get their Justicar Mind War killed by Eldrad, still getting 1 wound through his 3++ save (with Fortune on it) in the following assault and successfully activating force weapons to drop Eldrad like a sack of bricks (5 1 1 was the roll)

5th edition: I had a wave serpent up against two vendettas. I kill the first with the Eldar equivalent of a krak missile, and lose the missile launcher to the remaining vendetta. I proceed to ram that vendetta with the wave serpent, killing it and losing my shuriken cannon in the process. As an afterwards: after reducing my opponents last remaining unit (some storm troopers) to a sergeant with a plasma pistol, he charged said sergeant down a hill and opened up with the pistol, scoring an "explodes" result on the wave serpent.

The only other notable kill was a guard veteran with a heavy flamer killing a venerable dreadnaught by hitting its rear armor (it proceeded to explode, killing a good bit of a guard blob it deepstriked onto, whose only purpose was wrapping and extra wounds for the five autocannons in the back).

2nd edition - Back when vehicles ramming troops actually did lots of damage, I ran over Ghazghkull Thraka with a Chaos Rhino.

2nd ed - Fired all the weapons of a chaos land raider (2 twin linked las and a heavy bolter) at a single ork warbike and did nothing. The crewman of the land raider then shot the ork rider dead with his bolt pistol.

2nd ed - In a 500pt game of Orks vs Blood Angels, 5 Deathskull Lootas wiped out 5 scouts, 3 marines and 2 wounds off a chaplain without one of their weapons blowing up! The chaplain unfortunately went on to vortex grenade my warboss though.

3rd ed - Alpha Legion vs Tau (me) - My Tau had drilled most of the Chaos army as he was playing the Index Astartes list with lots of cultists, only for the Terminator Sorceror to deep strike and turn my ethereal into a spawn, at which point about 3/4 of my army legged it off the board.

3rd ed - In a 1000pt game of Orks (me) vs Blood Angels I landed a looted leman russ shot on a death company with chaplain on turn 1. The death company passed all their cover saves but the chaplain failed his 2+ armour and was blown to pieces. In the same turn my infilitrating kommandos blew up his dreadnought with their rokkit before it did anything. I still lost the game but these two shots were damn funny.

5th ed - My dire avengers and warp spiders were fighting a BT Crusader squad with Emperors Champ. The Champ had killed most of the dire avenger plus exarch only to be killed by the Warp Spider Exarch.

5th ed - Not a kill as such but my dire avenger exarch was the only survivor of his squad and ended up in combat with the last assault marine of a BT squad with a storm shield. Over about 4-5 rounds of combat neither could get past the 3+ or 3++ save of the other. Then the game ended with the two of them still duking it out.

5th ed (last game of 5th I think) - I was trying out an eldar foot list vs chaos marines. I only had 1 bright lance in the whole army (wraithlord) and he had a land raider. First shot of the game the land raider exploded and dumped huron out to be slaughtered later by harlequins. The wraithlord then went on to blow up his predator as well and not take a wound in the whole game.

Not had any memorable ones in 6th yet as only had 2 games.

Hahah yeah, pretty much.

6th ed a squad of space marines took the objectiv they where in cover and long distance in night fight. The exorsist shoots 6 shoots and 5 hitts killing all of them, they faild all saves droping the objectiv. I won on first blood only after that literely 1 - 0

Just had several tonight, and with two very special things. It was a Zone Mortalis battle against The sons of Horus! Epic fight, but the most awesome thing was:

My squad of DWK and mace wielding interriator chaplain wanted to charge a 20 man Legion squad with an apothicary and preator. I didn't want any terminator to die from the massive amount of overwatch, so I charged a lone marine into it .(he had his entire squad killed by heavy weapons) My opponent didn't overwatch him so my Knights got a free ride into combat. Mace of redemption and smite won them the combat by a landslide, and they ran.

my lone marine caught up with the squad and killed 11 legionaries, A preator and an Apothecary all by himself I couldn't help but laugh!

Biggest I've seen

5th Edition A Tau Ethereal killed a Daemon Prince in Close Combat

Biggest I've ever had

A Space Marine Sarge run through 10 Ork boyz

3rd ed: Karandras gets charged by three Guard platoons and tanks about eight artillery shells that wipe out the guard intending to pin him in place, before going on to rip open every tank with the scorpion claw.

5th Ed Apocalypse: Sisters Rhino with extra Storm Bolter takes out a Greater Daemon of Nurgle.

5th Ed Apocalypse: 3 Seraphim wipe out an entire boards worth of models on turn 2 by sending a Stompa critical with their inferno pistols. How? Even though there was something like eight players each with 2000 points each of stuff trying to play, it was a 4x4 table...

I'll post a few, to the best of my recollection.

5th Edition: Lord Commissar bravely stands his ground against a mildly wounded Daemon Prince when he comes charging. Spectacularly, the Daemon Prince fails to wound the Lord Commissar even a single time and is killed immediately when the Lord Commissar counter-attacks.

5th Edition: The same Lord Commissar, now being used as a simple commissar, engages a mildly wounded Tyranid Tyrant. Promptly, the Tyrant, who was a pain for most of the game, is dispatched when he is unable to wound the commissar.

5th Edition: Master of Ordnance somehow managed to bring down the fury of an artillery bombardment, after scattering quite a distance from it's intended target, into the entirety of the enemy's artillery - a brood of Biovores - as well as some of the tougher tyranid troops, somehow managing to destroy most of them.

4th Edition. Single scout sniper. Over a span of 3 games he managed to kill 2 Wraithlords with shooting, and a lictor in close combat. He was so awesome I promoted him to sgt, and comissioned a custom model made for him
