Hello everyone!
What is the strangest thing that the dice gods have done to you while you were playing a game? I remember once every time someone shot at my Land Raider with a Multi-Melta, it always failed to penetrate by one, even when it got to roll 2D6 for armour penetration. Another time, a mate kept guessing armour save rolls and whats more, he got them right! Keep the ball rolling

It was purely theoretical, but we tried seeing how much damage an entire squad of Dire Avengers could do, bladestorming into my Wolf Court. They inflicted 22 wounds on my Wolf Lords. I passed 22 saves. It didn't happen in a game or anything, but...man. That was awesome.

Good luck: 4 games in a row, IG Infrantry Squads having 80% accuraccy.

Bad Luck: 1st turn power blob running off the field after taking 20 causualities in 4+ cover and failing a Ld 9 test even with re-roll

Good, i shot a lascannon, blew up a transport, expolsion killed a squad next too it and killed off a part of another, they failed leadership and fell off the board... 3 killpoints, 1 lascannon=1 shot

Rolling 4 dice, one timemy bro rolled all ones

While playing space hulk, when all we needed was the dice god's blessing, was to pull a six from the bonus point pile, role a six to kill a genestealer, and another to blow down the door.... guess what we pulled? THE TRIPLE SIX!

After the rest of my Loganwing had died Mr Grimnar went on a killing spree and took 500 points of guard down.
Took a while though.

I went through a streak of luck once in regards to going first. For approximately 6 months (so probably 30ish games), every time I won the roll to go first, I also had the initiative seized from me. Every time. By the end I stopped bothering to ever elect to go first.

In one game I was observing, I saw a Tervigon take 3 shooting phases from 3 GK psyriflemen, then another 3 from 2 (one died). It passed every save.

I hate steal the initiative. I dont see why they even put it in there.

I played a game of my Templars against my friends Chaos marines.

Good Luck for him: He had 1 melta gun, fired it once each a two land raiders and a dreadnought, penetrated, and got the destroyed result all 3 times.

That same game, I had a lone terminator against an 8-man squad of Khorne berzerkers have to make 18 armor saves and 2 invulnerable saves and I made every one.

Bad luck ; All my salamanders missing with meltaguns (with vulkan)

Good luck : the enemys deep strike squad missed my vindicators with theirs

Good luck: the 2 vindicators pie plated them

----

Stupid Luck : reclusiarch takes a wound on difficult terrain

Bad Luck: all my blood angel meltas miss in the first round(again)

Badder Luck : dante misses with his pistol TWICE (2nd and 3rd round)

Good luck: reclusiarch takes out 1/3 of enemy and is the last man standing having made 22 saves in a row

20 Daemonettes charging 4 Ork Loota's and 2 Ork Loota's live.

Not sure how lucky this is, but last game I played my hammerhead (that is my defilfish with the hammer head turret because I am to lazy to put together my actual hammerhead.) Took out 3 tanks with three shots in three turns all well not taking any damage.

I've had 3 obliterators shoot plasma cannons, only for each one to get hot...

Rolling 6:es for a wych with hydra gauntlets three times in a row. I now call her Sixy Wych.
