Same here, as a BT and Necron player..

Now I know why the first game I ever played was against Black Templars, and the guy said that he used them to go easy on me.

When your land speeder explodes leaving a crater that then proceeds to block off one of 2 route out, forcing you to direct all units into a killing field of GK razorspam.

When you have nothing but a speeder and a Bike captain in turn 2, before you had the chance to fire a single shot...both of these were the same game

I get a bigger sinking feeling when I hear Cruddace is writing a codex.

You know that sinking feeling when your one Nurgle Lord gets charged by a Guardsmen command squad, accompanied by various Guardsmen.

I just made one manta blue, and one beige, and painted "1" and "3" on them because I am tricksy. But mostly for gaks and giggles.

Do the numbers signify something?

I have "1" and "3" so people who don't know better assume I have three

Pretty sure Tau Codex is 4th ed. The only 3rd ed codex that's still in is the Necron one.

when you don't know what to post on this thread.

When your Fire Warriors are charged by gretchins.

If feel the pain! This'll be the second or third edition that the tau haven't been redone. Tau are the only army that have to take target priority tests, now. That rule doesn't exist anymore for ANYONE else- as far as I know.

God that match was rough...

And just half an hour after you start half the players say that they need to leave within the hour...

MFW

When your one and only Leman russ goes pop in the first turn.....

Leaving your 3 platoons open for enemy armour :(

When your enemy dsed a deathleaper, lictors, and those ugly 'stealers right under your nose, and you forget about them until two turns later when they pop out at you and EAT your crisis commander.

When your 9 page forum suddenly goes silent that you have worked so hard to keep alive.

You know the sinking feeling when you:
Spend hundreds of dollars on a new army and countless hours painting only to have GW change the rules 18 months later making you investment worthless or forcing you to spend more time and money to make it playable again.
Examples:
Iyanden Eldar
Slayer Army
Deathwing army w/2 heavy weapons per squad
Sisters of Battle
Inquisitorial Storm Troopers
Ah ya gotta love it.

You know that sinking feeling when you try use a psychic power against Grey Knights...

Or Eldar

My Wierdboyz hate both :(

When your greyknight Grand Master and accompaning ten man terminator squad get tank shocked off an objective into range of rapid frining tau gunline. Emperors finest my

They make simply the finest corpses in the whole galaxy, dahhhhling

Emporer's Finest? More like finest grit that gets stuck between my teeth. I love my Tau gunlines.

You know that sinking feeling when you get home from your local store and you realize you have 2 of 3 templates.

Durza wrote:That sinking feeling you get... when Draigo gets turned into Chaos Spawn.

Never did it to draigo, but did do it to calgar lol.
when you realize that after turning calgar into a spawn your deamon prince is out in the middle of nowhere and your opponent is so angry he fires everything he has at poor dp

...When you fire 36 firewarriors on rapid fire at a single gaunt and none of the hits wound.

when you forget the CSM crazed rule, and when you roll you get a 1 and the closest unit is your HQ

... your opponent places a monolith.
...your 'nids are outnumbered by their space marine enemies.
... you are Tau and your opponent deep-strikes a Trygon.
...your opponent brings out a titan.
...your best unit self-destructs.

... Your 3 carnifexes are targeted by JOTWW

... The first 6 you roll is when your zoanthrope is trying avoid JOTWW.

... You have to fight orks with nids.

.... You fire your sunstorm squadron fire prisms at that one land raider with the scary chaos lord inside making a b-line for your lone farseer. And roll 1s to hit.

.... You fire a bladestorm from 10 dire avengers rerolling both hits and wounds from Doom and Guide, and still only take out 1 of the 30 Orks about to make charge range.

...When the enemy takes out 3 tervigons, a trygon, two carnifexes, a swarmlord, and 2 hiveguards. Alongside it are 90 gaunts that the tervigons get to crap out.

If onyl I had those things then I would actually be a threat.
when half your army is blown to pieces in less then 3 turns.
