my guardsman Frank killing that greater daemon of khorne in hand-to-hand combat...

@DaveL: Oh. Sorry, I thought you meant 'Banshee' screamers. (Cos of thier helmets) My mistake.

I had a single guardsman take on a Greater Deamon prince, live, charge a Great unclean one, and die after dealing 2 wounds on it. it was a 2v2 match, and I just laughed at the look on their faces.

In my last game I fought my brother's UM with my IG. It was only 500 points and he managed to fit an Ironclad in there. After a few turns of getting flamed and sniped by Telion I had lost my 3 melta vets so the only thing that could hurt it was the melta in my command squad and the vet's demo charge. Long story short, melta hits, fails to penetrate (from LESS THEN six inches away!), demo charge gets direct hit, 6 for AP, 6 on damage table. And then the Ironclad blew up and killed off the last two vets...

One time while playing a home-made campaign I was getting severely pounded on one mission where whoever held the most objectives won the game. I had one 30 boy squad left to hold objectives and the other two players had most of their armies still ( the dice were hating me!) So, just to make a nuisance of myself I attached Mad Dok to the squad, bottle necked them through some cover to make a conga line and assaulted a legion of the damned squad. I was contesting 3 of the 5 objectives and wouldn't let the other guy fire at my squad being as they were technically in melee (even the guys 30 or more inches away), and when he started assaulting the boys near the objectives they still had FNP. I normally do not play so cheesy but i really enjoyed watching this guys blood boil as he scoured the rulebook aver and over again

The other would have to be the first time I used a Deff Rolla and maded a pile of goo out of a Bloodthirster who tried Death or Glory. I think I proceeded to kill half his army that night with my Rolla

Vindicare capping Arjac in a tourney last weekend!

Dark eldar Vs Necron....
Destroyers first were gone in the first turn( ten of them). Dissies are fun on raiders and DL sniper squads. by turn four he was at phase out.( phase out was 14 models at te end of the game he was down too 3 models).
Didnt loose a single model at all.....

...thats pretty much what i just said

Creed fleeing a building that was getting pounded by orbital bombardment. When he gets outside 2 seperate 3-man Grey-Knight Terminators of mine teleport in front of him. BOTH scatter and land right on top of him (he was the only model) and fail, dying, on the mishap table.

How did he do that? Well, it must have taken some sort of tactical geni-CREEEEEEEEEEEEEED!!!

We laughed about that...a lot.

There's no way in heck that THAT could happen. Seriously, that is fricken insane. That means Creed took out 6 GK Terminators. Creed ain't no Sly Marbo, and he sure aint no Chuck Norris.

They mishapped by deepstriking on him. He didn't kill them with his hot-shot laspistols. He killed them with his tactical genius.

BTW, although Creed wasn't neaby at the time my Orbital Bombardment keyed to that building scattered badly and blew apart my Chimera (killing a few of the retinue inside.)

How did he do that, kids? Was it even him? Well if it was, it sure as heck required some sort of tacti-CREEEEEEEEEEEEED!!!

That is ridiculous, and really, really lucky. I am baffeled. Creed must have been happy

So many to chose from but my most recent Best 40K Moment Evar was during a game recently where my Necrons faced off with Marines led by Shrike and Lysander.

He wins the setup and deploys first... Shrike, Lysander AND a 10 man Terminator Assault squad Infiltrate. I deploy and he sets up the Infiltrating, Fleeting Terminators with BOTH special characters 18" off my right flank. I do the Deceiver trick and redeploy Bid D right in the path of the Terminators. <evil grin>

The game starts and he high tails the Termies with Shrike and Lysander away from the C'Tan. :( Turn two and I deep strike a Monolith in his deployment zone and next turn the Terminators, Shrike and Lysander move, run and then assault the Monolith, doing exactly jack.

My next turn I tank shock the Terminators, and they roll boxcars for their LD test and then fall back 10 inches, running around the Monolith and land exactly 2 inches from the nearest board edge... and less than 6 inches from the Monolith. His next turn about 700+ points of Terminators and special characters run off the board.

"They are my space marines, and they shall no no fear." FAIL!

"no, no Fear...Bad Fear...no,NO!" lol
