I'm both chaotic and orderly. I value my own principles, and am willing to go to extreme lengths to enforce them, often trampling on the very same principles in the process. At best, I'm heroic and principled; at worst, I'm hypocritical and disorderly. I am Red And White.

this happened to my opponent last weekend. I was IG, 20 man blob platoon of IG with commisar and no power weapons killing a bloodthirster in 1 round of combat. I've never been so lucky.

around 24 are killed and the rest flee but are picked off by two squads of ratling snipers or run off the table. legendary amongst the members of my school club.


Where in the Codex does it say that Imperial Guard Officer of the Fleet are able to use Orbital Bombardments???

I thought only SM Captians could.

The two most improbable things I've ever done come from the same game.

I was playing Daemons, my foe was playing Orks.

I had 17 Deep Strikes that game. Only one of them was a scatter. All of the others were direct hits.

That was preposterously unlikely, we did the math and it's staggering, but later that game it got worse.

A Trukk boy mob charged a Soul Grinder. It whipped, the Nob crumped it. It exploded 6 inches.

Each and Every Ork (they were 12 deep) was wounded, not one of them made their 6+ armor save. The whole unit died, and the wounded Nob broke. It was the most devastating explosion I'd ever seen.

Primarch can verify this. He was my foe in that game. Not a happy guy.

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).

How about 10 bloodletters getting shot down to 1 by 10 lootas in a bw then asulted the bw blew it up killing 6 of the lootas and pinning them then the blood letter killed rest of squad next turn (all that was left on tabl was the 1 letter and the battlewagon)
