"Shoot that guy!"

Depending on the context, this could have been great advice!

I asked a redshirt how best to counter Grey Knights as a Tyranid player. He replied "Long story short, shoot them" to which some wiseguy slid in "Yeah, shoot them, with guns".

Yeah, thanks a bunch.

Fortunately, the redshirt was much more helpful, and explained that what he meant was to defeat them from a distance as opposed to trying to assault them. He also explained that the best tactic was to use as many shots as possible, so for example massed Fleshborer fire, Dakkafexes, Bio-Electric Fields, and so on, as Tyranids don't have many anti-MEQ blast weapons, so the best tactic was just to drown them under weight of fire. So at least he was helpful.

Buy Squats.

"Make sure to convert all your chaos terminators into nurgle terminators. Toughness 5 in terminator armor is insane."
This was in the previous codex, so for those of you who know how much a five man terminator squad costs...

Well I made two of them...

When using my orks got told "You're wasting points taking a megabooster you can roll high enough on 2 dice"

It never is...

playing city fight believing that barricades were AV14 and could be put in your deployment zone.....i spent 4 turns wailing on one with a dread before I got out of my deployment zone.

Buy mandrakes, theyre great! Mind you this was in 4th edition

This was one i heard a father say to his son about me
"Go fight the guy in the pony cap, he is an easy win, he doesnt take the game seriously"
Tabled him in 2 turns.

"Let the Burna boyz walk"

"you need a Kill Kannon for that wagon to be worth taking"

Ignored the last 2, the first one i foolishly listened to for a while, but now i only dont play them when my opponents start building lists to counter them.
