night Bringer Trumps Swarmlord.

Swarmlord hits on 3+.

Wounds on 6+, unlewss he gave himself FC, but tghen can't take Preferred Enemy.

Can't ID you.

Sure, you reroll Invulnerables, but even thern you take maybe 1 wound.

TG need strike with you, unless they gave their ST for Whips.

They need 4+ or 3+ to hit(Paraxysm). If they took whips they don;'t get to reroll 1s.

They need 6 to wound.

4++ + 5 wounds.




You, Hit on 4+ or 5+, depending on whether he used Paraxysm. Even then Paraxysm only lasts a game turn. 2 rounds of combat.

You wound on 2+ and ignore his 4++

You have more attacks.


All your special abilities.

3rd Edition IG Codex:
1 Colonel, power weapon + plasma pistol
1 Commissar, power weapon + bolt pistol
4 Veterans (vet upgrade) bolt pistol + ccw

What did it kill?

Itself.

Got chewed on by Khornate demons who were summoned virtually on top of it. Only survivors were the Colonel and the Commissar. Rolled 12 on the Leadership test, which means the squad runs away. Oh wait, there's a Commissar there, which (back then) meant the highest ranking model gets killed by the Commissar (BLAM! goes the Colonel) and I get to re-roll the test.

Failed the re-roll on a 12 AGAIN, which means that the "remainder of the unit frags the Commissar"... so the Commissar, being the last remaining model, killed himself.

I'm so glad it's an automatic success on a Ld test nowadays...

Straken. Killed Drago.

This shouldn't surprise you, because Straken is a truly manly man.

Belail with a thunder hammer and storm shield

vs

Rhino, Seth and 8 death company and a Sanguinary Priest.

The Rhino tanked shocked after using the overcharged engines that the Blood Angels use and moved over 18 inches. A Death or Glory, and an odd game breaking technicality later the Rhino disintegrated along with all hands.

Bonesabres a just CCW that cause ID and reroll invulnerables. IIRC C'tan can't be ID. And that means that all you have to do is reroll your 4++. But he needs 6 to wound you.

IG Company Commander beating off a squad of charging Wychs. All by himself.

Three Fire Warriors charged a Daemon Prince and took his two remaining wounds.

I assume it was because one of them tripped over, the second stepped on him and he accidentally fired his Pulse Rifle into the Prince's ankle and the third guy went to run away, dropped his grenades and they rolled into the Daemon's mouth and blew his head off...

All of which would have been dubbed over with honking and slide-whistle sounds while the 'de-dee-deedle-dee' circus music played in the background.

My Lord Commissars have a habit of (alone) shooting a terminator (storm shields), killing it, charging into combat, killing another, SURVIVING and thus winning combat. They always die next turn though, but it's ok. Did I mention they do this all by themselves?

Also an epic duel between Sicarius and Mephiston. Lasted like 4 combat rounds before Mephiston finally gets past the iron halo, of course if I could have wounded on a 4 up with the ID...

Snigger. Well they are Slaaneshi, they'd enjoy that sort of thing!

Not really a HQ, but I did have one game, Thousand Sons vs Chaos Daemons, where one of my TS Aspiring Sorcerers killed a Soulgrinder with a meltabomb.

I had a game, playing as Orks, where the looted tank not only managed to hit a Dreadnought, it killed it. Then it made an Imperial Commander fail his Death or Glory when one of the Orks pushed dat button, and squished him.

It's called getting lucky. Swarmlord has a ton of attacks, and with that comes a higher chance of rolling a 6.

not HQ, but i was playing planetstrike, and 1 stormtrooper sargeant killes 2 of my carnifexes in CC (in one combat, 2 rounds!)

my best kill: turn 1, blow up stompa surrounded by entire ork army, no other vehicles, all but 1 nob dies, shot by autocannon

hq: my warboss and 10 tooled up nobs slaughter 1500 point army-alone

it doesent work that way, but pretty funny!

Kharne (with his trusty unit of nine Berserkers in a land raider): Two units of Incubi, a talos and a haemonculi

My friend asked me to post this.


Takes a GK Captain with Warding Stave against a Nidzilla list. Captain, 2 5 man strike squads and a Stormraven VS Swarmlord, 2 squads of 3 warriors and a 3 strong Fex Brood.

Swarmlord and his gribblies munch Strike Squad 1, who deep striked too close.



Stormraven and the squad inside deep strike off board and roll 2 for Mishap.


Grand Master jumps in, shoots and wounds a warrior twice.


Carn brood assaults him. He wounds allm of them 1 time each, and passes FW test, killing them alkl before they can touch him.


All Nid shooting attacks miss. wounded warrior and 2 full health ones attack, and he kills them all.


Swarmlord attempts to Paroxysm him, but Perils. Champion charges, and wounds him, but takes Perils as well.


Swarmlord wounds once, but he got his 2++. He ID the Swarmlord.

IG CCS

4 Guardsmen w/ lasguns
1 Master of Ordinance w/ laspistol
1 Officer w/laspistol

Last final necron to phase out, everything in my army fails. like an uber fail.

Commander looks around and tells the men "This is the way you do it you morons"

Calmly lowers laspistol after his guards randomly flail around wit thier lasguns hitting mostly dirt and trees, fires. Zaps the necron, fail WBB phase out.

Sadly, you recall incorrectly. C'tan, as they are for the next few weeks, do not have eternal warrior, and can be instant deathed. Swarmlord > Nightbringer. Swarmlord swings first, and only needs one wound to go through to watch nightbringer explode.

Thank you

A friend of mine deepstriked shadowsun right behind my mek stompa who still had everything except it's two shields and had a mek inside giving it a kff cover. She fired once and proceeded to get chain reaction after chain reaction and killed it without having it explode on her. 650 points gone in one shot I tipped my hat to him after that.

Well, for my Orks, it was when my Shokk Attack Gun hit and boxcar'd Calgar and his spiffy Command Squad. That Big Mek was the baddest thing on the board.......until he rolled snakeeyes for the Shokk Attack gun the next turn.

With my Sisters of Battle, it'd be my Confessor with the Eviscerator chainsawing a Chaos Dreadnought and a Rhino. He did well since I figured he'd buy it in the first turn. The model was still unwounded at the end of the game.

Abbadon!

That's stupid! Star eating God in a Living Metal body can be taen by a Human with a staff? Or a Big Bug with special claws? Rubbish.

Sly Marbo- Killed a fully upgraded warboss and the 10 man fully upgraded nob squad with him

Marbo doesn't really count. He is the 40K equivilent of Chuck Norris. If he had beaten Chuck Norris I would allow it......

I saw a Sisters of battle Seraphim squad from Order of Valorus Heart jump into a fight against a Dark Eldar Archon that had chased off a chaplain. The Seraphim's squad leader just pwn'd him with her power sword.

My land raider redeemer known as "Empyreal Fire" has killed my friends IG command squad every game we have played by the latest 3rd round. For whatever reason it has never fallen in battle.
