Daemonic Dreadnought

Mine is probably during a 2(2000 points a piece) v 3(2000 pts for two players and 500 for the third) game. I was playing Necrons allied with Tyranids going against Tau and two IG players. One IG player had his baneblade out. Bottom of the first turn, one squad of three of my heavy destroyers all got penetrating hits which resulted in the Baneblade to have a 16"Apocalyptic Explosion.

Got a new one to add, was playing 50,000 apocalypse, gave a marshal and 4 cmd squad termies in a drop pod (total cost about 300 points) a void grenade, deep struck them 1 inch off opponents table edge didn't scatter and were 6" away from abbadon, typhus, bile, the tzeneech guy can't remember his name, they were all clustered, threw the grenade hit them all and they all disappeared, as soon as he removed them he quit, this was turn 1 btw. And we had 1st turn. Once he quit the other players on his team added points to his remaining.
In subsequent turns the void grenade killed 3 tyranid warriois with lash whip bonesword turn 2, a hive tyrant kitted out and 2 hive guard turn 3, all 4 masters of the chapter (before using there abilities) turn 4, and last but not least inflicted 3 wounds on the Khorne greater daemon from FW. And through this all not a single member of the Marshall and his cmd squad died but did kill lots of tyranids and in turn 5 charged and killed the greater daemon.

Got a new one, with a few runner-ups, thanks to my tournament this weekend: 3rd place: A lone fire warrior lasts 3 rounds of CC against a full sisters squad, winning combat once(but they passed their Ld check) before finally being smushed. 2nd Place: A lone broadside lasts 2 rounds of combat against Marbo, pushing combat with no wounds on either side, before he deals a single wound on Marbo in the 3rd combat round without taking any in return. Marbo fails his Fearless armor save, and I now have a Broadside i need to model a bandana and explosive bow and arrow onto... 1st Place: A lone Fire Warrior Shas'la (Soon to be Shas'vre) watched his five comrades around him melt into puddles of armor and bubbling flesh from a trio of Flamers of Tzeentch, but remained firm, lifted his pulse rifle, and proceeded to double tap a Daemon Prince of Khorne right between the eyes, knocking off it's final wound and earning himself the name Mont'lel, the Death-lightning.

Draigo fails 1 save,and his morale test. Sweeping Advance,Draigo rolls a 1 and Aun'va rolls another 6. My friend was like this

Several of my funy moments
#1: BA (me) vs. Ultrasmurfs
Spearhead
Capture and Control
Using my Assualt squad and tactical squad in my rhino I feinted towards his objective, his response was to mass fire them and drop Calgar with his 10-man tactical marine drop pod next to my objective. What I wanted. Used my 2x 5 Man termi squads (One with captian other with libby) to hit his objective and the defending tactical squad (Now only 6 guys left  ) charges Calgar. Eventually after three rounds they were gone as were 2 of Calgar's wounds and his retinue. By this stage i had his objective. Now my rhino turns and fires at Calgar, taking him out winning me the game.
Me:
Him:
#2: BA (me again) vs. Tau
Spearhead
Annihlation
Playing against a Tau list with 3 HH and Xv8's jumping around everywhere. Turn 1 my scout squad get shot leaving just the Seargeant with an annoying guy bitching at me for not going to ground. My assualt marines also take three casulties but i rolled a one for red thirst. Turn 2, Mephistion and his 15 DC and LRC deepstrike right infront of hammerhead #1, Assault Marines manage to assualt HH#2 and the surviving scout sarge maanges to charge HH#3. HH#1 get destroyed by the LRCs AC, HH#2 gets ripped apart by Furious charging Assualt marines (4 die in the explosion), HH#3 gets hit with a meltabomb by the Scout and is destroyed. He gets gunned down ny fire warrions. Mephisty and his DC proceed to win the game.
#3 IF (me) vs. Daemons
Dawn of War
Annihlation
DoW deployemnt. Only unit on the field is my unit of Scouts. throughout the eintire game run rings around his plague bearers then act as bait and draw Ku'Gash and Skarbrand into a crossfire. He bloodcrushers hide in a building allowing my scouts the time to pick them off with their SR instead of charging straight for them. On his turn one his Khorne DP was reduced to one wound adn one of my LS sniped a SG. In the end Ku'Gath killed himself with his necrotic(?) missiles. Final score
Imperium:7
Daemons:0
He didn't hit combat once and never inflicted a single wound. I only came close to losing a model when my PC overheated on turns 3 adn 4.
#4 IF vs. CSM (Khorny)
Basically when i started using my LS, one flew too close to some possessed and immbilized dread. Possessed were about to charge the LS when they wiped out by the HF on the dread. ( FF).
#5 CSm (me) vs. Ultrasmurfs
Dawn of War
Annihlation
Same Ultraboys player (Not using Calgar this time) Droppods another tact squad to take out my CSm squad with melta which was in a building. After two rounds of a firefight the CM retinue are gone for 4 CSms. The CM then takes a melt round to the face. He rolls a 2 for his invunerable.

The meaning of victory is not merely to defeat your enemy but destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavors, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory.

I have a one similar to this but without the non-casualties. It was against an eldar friend when i think he assaulted me with something and a couple turns tied up yarrick and an inf. I managed to kill them but taking my squad out too. ayarrick then moved just outside the ark of fire the d-cannons he had shot at a unit of dark reapers killed one assaulted killed all of them and consolodated a 6" back out of the firing range. Nothing i had on the field went within 24" of them rendering them useless.

It happened earlier today in fact.
Konrad Curze, using Mephiston's rules, flew into combat with an Ork warboss and his nob bodyguard on the first turn and cut them all down before they could even raise a weapon (using the Sanguine sword power). If that had been it it would have been impressive enough, but after that brilliant Assassination he was mobbed by two Ork boy squads, which together totalled 50 models. I expected that to be it and for him to be pulled down by sheer weight of numbers, but Curze obviously didn't agree. Amazingly, defying all the odds he somehow managed to hold of 50 Ork boys for three turns until he was saved by an Assault squad's timely intervention.
It was exactly like something out of a Heresy novel, a lone Primarch flying into the center of a mass of Orks and holding off the swarm single-handedly, only to be saved at the last minutes by his reinforcements.

A stellar performance worthy of his backstory I thought

My best moment in 40k is when an enemy shadowsword fired and scattered back onto itself. Chain reaction, apocolypse explosion. 1500 points of guard lost. the shot's original target: 8 hormagaunts.
(to be fair, they were the largest concentration of units left and the heavy weapon teams should have finished off the isolated 'nids that weren't locked in cc.)

Lets see there are two that come to mind the first is when I was playing a three way fight vs death guard and marines with a big deathwatch squad ally(back in 4th). My army was stuck in between and got wasted so all I had left was a vindicator, but that vindi went on to take out a bunch of plague marines and plague daemons and wounded both a daemon prince and greater daemon. Then turned to the other army and butchered the expensive deathwatch squad and took out some other stuff. I didn't win that game but I went out in a blaze of glory. I even put a gold laural on the cannon for his good fight. The second was when I used my stompa for the first time against a friend in a 3000 pts battle. That thing layed waste to everything in sight it was glorious, and when it finally died it went apocalyptic and wiped out a bunch of other stuff it was a ton of fun.

Beast of Nurgle

A squad of Plague Maines in a Rhino got ambushed by a 30-man IG blob with meltaguns. They busted the rhino, killing one, then charged. After a couple rounds of assault there were 9 guardsmen, including one Commissar and 3 sergeants with power weapons vs a lone Plague Marine with a combat knife and bolt pistol.
The combat contined for 3 turns until the end of turn 6 when the Plague Marine finally killed the Commissar, the last remaining model for the IG.
He got a promotion.
