1. Because he just threw your lash prince against the wall and told you to go yourself and if he saw you in here with it again it wont be the prince thrown at the wall.
2. Because he gloated about killing all 6 of your troop units, even though they only had 5 members in each squad.
3. Because his IG army consist of gunlines and tanks but he runs away from your advancing zerkers so by the time they reach them the game is over, and he only shoots your long range weaponry whilst running away from the rest of your army *i cannot stress how much people have done this to my sons im thinking of running my dual sorcerors with wind of chaos / warptime to start clearing IG gunlines/SM shooty armies*
4. Because he tries to make the game as unenjoyable as possible by calling up every single attack that he doesnt know about, Sorcerors Command, Disc of Tzeentch, Warptime, Winds of Chaos, Furious Charge, Daemon Weapons.
5. Because he attempts to move his entire army forward 3" at a time to allow you to shoot most of it down so you have a chance to win *you want to try a full fledged battle against him not him let you whittle him down*

So IG should not move away from berzerkers?

If you do not know what a special ability is, you should not ask what it does?

wait. so playing tactically makes you a bad sport? if you have an issue with a certain tactic, its your problem to come up with a solution.

seems perfectly reasonable. if i dont know exactly what an ability does ill ask to read it. if youre not cheating, there shouldnt be any problem with showing your opponent whats going on.

what you enjoy in the game and what somebody else enjoys may differ. it seems perfectly reasonable to play in a way that will give you the best chance of winning.

how about this one:

6. Whining on an internet forum when games dont go your way because you are too stubbon to change.

If we were to play each other in a tournament, not only would I table you, I would murder you, your family, every woman you ever loved and burn down your house. I mean, what's the point in winning if you allow people that don't take the game seriously to live?

When you here him say to someone after losing to you,"He didn't really beat me......"


What did you do or say that precipitated the thrown model. It usually takes 2 to tango.
Also, if hes telling you to get out of the store it seems that he thinks he has the authority to do so. Was this an employee, manager, or the like?

Why is this in the Fluff section?

What does it have to do with fluff at all?

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

You're a bad sport when you make another one of these "You know something something when..." threads. There are enough of them.

You're a bad sport when you play tactically, hmm? Have you noticed IT'S A MINIATURES GAME? AND HOW MOST IF NOT ALL OF THEM RELY ON STRATEGY?

You're a bad sport when you complain about special abilities that other armies have that you don't. It's to make armies unique in their own way. 'OMG OMG Y RN'T MAH ORK BOYZ BS 3 SO THEY CAN SHOOT AS WELL AS TAUS WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF"

You're a bad sport when you complain about a GAME. YEAH.

most of whats being said is utter rubbish, especially guard moving away from the big nasty space marines that can rip them in half thats just common sense

as for number one if someone did that to any of my models lash prince or not i would go back the next weekend or something and introduce his army to a close personal friend called Mr Hammer and see how he likes it (shouting "hands up hammertime" is optional at this point)
