Hey all-

Just wanted to know what everyone's most successful unit in 40k is. Mine is probably my Company Master "Zaladiekal", who has won me a LOT of matches . So, what's yours? You may post a picture with your post.

I've killed about fifty of Warriors with the Termies, and a couple of Hive Tyrants with Lysander.

Njal Stormcaller + grey hunters or wolf guard. They seem to last till the very end every game, and they soak up so much fire. My opponents waste all their time/efforts trying to kill Njal because of his 3+ nullify and of course his innate ability to control the weather. This in return almost always leaves Logan + wolf guard alone, and long fangs to do what they want. If you ignore Njal and let him live late in the game he can really mess stuff up. I once broke a unit, then cast an ability on them to make them only move D6 inches and to treat all terrain as dangerous. It was a large unit, and they were effectively taken out of the game for 2 turns because of that.

My other favorite/effective unit is my 10 nob bikers. Fast attack, lots of dakka, good at assault, T5 2 wounds 4+ fixed cover save. I have wiped out a lot of stuff with them.

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of the Eldar!

My best unit is probably my Leman Russ Battle Tank with a lascannon and plasma sponsons. Though my Leman Russ Executioner with lascannon and Plasma sponsons is looking to be a close second (5 plasma small blast templates!). 2 of the battle tanks and 1 executioner provide the majority of the firepower for my 1500 pt army.

Though he has not won me any games, Marbo has been doing good recently, in a recent game against my friend who plays tyranids he killed a biovore, a zonethrope (in CC), and the remainder of a termagaunt squad.

LOL I have had games where I roll a 5-6 every turn for the lootas and they are feth dude that is so lame! I am toying with burnas now and ghazskull in a wagon so when they assault they auto hit everything with the template weapons then go smash some eads!


Nice! What was your most victorious game ever?


In 40K? Probably with my wolves, in 2nd edition with an assassin, a vortex grenade, and my wolf priest had the vortex psychic power, I think I tabled the guy in two turns. I had the outflank strategy card and sent my wolf guard on the flank, and they came in with assault canons and destroyed his left flank. My Assassin revealed herself on the opposite flank and wiped out the guys and then assassinated his psyker. Hard to remember all the details but I basically went for the cheesiest possible build you could go, to prove a point how characters unbalance the game. This hatred stemmed from Marneus Calgar and how broken he was in hand to hand combat. Feel sorta bad for the aggression to be played out against the poor Eldar guy, but I was making a point!

It was against Eldar and the vortex grenade instantly killed the Avatar....if I am recalling correctly.

Otherwise my greatest victory was in a Necromunda tournament. Started 1 day late and was one day behind everyone and took 1st place, but ended up getting second since the tournament had two sets of scores. You got points for winning and then your opponent could give you sportsmanship points which counted for 10% of your actual points. I was a bit over competitive that tournament, but I mean who wouldn't be after being a whole day behind everyone and making an epic comeback to win it all!

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of the Eldar!
