So what are some moments in gaming where the unlikely(whether good or bad) that happened to you?
For me it is this.
A Drop pod carrying a Tactical squad landed surrounded by tau packing firepower.
They disembarked. They fired, Didnt do a whole lot of damage. Cut a few turns later, they are all dead but a missile packing one.
Apprently he decides he aint going down without a fight.
Survives 2 leadership tests
survives 12 plasma rifle shots that come from 6inches away.
Takes down half of a fire warrior squad ad damages a crisis suit with a frag missile that doesn't scatter.(my sterngaurd destroy the rest of the squad and causes it to fall back to a table edge)
Finally gets taken out by a Broadside.
That model deserves a medal.

Make him one? lol

A long time ago (3rd edition) I was playing against a really new space marine player who insisted he had a nasty trick up his sleeve. He drove up a razorback 12", got out with a devastator squad and goes "ta dah" all pleased with himself and shoots me with some bolters... Then I go "wouldn't it have been better to just keep the squad and the razorback farther back and shoot me the whole game?"

He said "probably but it wouldn't have been as fun," and then I just shoot and charge him with 10 Wraithguard...I don't see how that was very fun for him =(.
