My warboss wielding the Killchoppa charges with his group of bikers into a chaos marine squad lead by a Sorcerer.
After the warboss decapitates the sorcerer, we total up wounds and I've lost the combat.
Warboss fails his leadership and runs off the table at full health.

guess he went home to mount his trophy

A company commander and his squad got charged by a wounded chaplain and a five man squad of termies. Not only does the command squad except the commander die, they take three termies and a chaplain with them. No power weapons or plasma pistols...

Deathstrike Missile was fired danger close to my Fortress walls in order to try wiping out an Ork horde bearing down on my defenders.

The Missile scattered backwards and destroyed 3 sections of my Fortress, leaving only the Missile bunker, and killing 35 men (20 of which were veterans), my Inquisitor and his retinue. Also caught in the blast was my last Tarantula turret.

Suffice it to say, I had effectively tabled myself and my opponent cleaned up the survivors, including the offending Deathstrike Missile Launcher, the following turn

Back in a 4th edition tournament, I was playing DE. A single SM scout squad Sergeant was in range of a Raider with a Archon w/ shadow field and 5 incubi in.

He levelled his lone bolt pistol, and downed the raider. It exploded. All Incubi died, and the Archon lost a wound and his shadow field.

I still managed to win the game, but that moment of pure horror has scarred me to this day.

Playing a relic mission with BA vs Orks. BA turn one all jump in the relic and form a ball of death surrounding it so that the orks won't be able to punch through. Ork turn one. First thing the Ork Stompa fires a massive blast over the guy with the Relic. In one shot more the 75% of the BAs are gone. We call the game and start over. The shot heard around the world.

was back in 6th, I played a game with my BA against a friends CSM. His newly build maulerfiend charged my fragioso, I rolled a 6 for overwatch with my fragcannon, 3 hits S6 rending, roll 2 more 6's for armour pen, rol 1 more 6 and it explodes, the look on his face was hilarious

Leman russ gets blown up. I drive another Leman russ into the wreckage. That russ gets blown up. Necron lord decides to play king of the mountain.

...........
An inquisitor with a blob of guardsmen charges a green tide. They are at minus -1 because rad grenades. the hallucanigenic grenades cause all the orks to hit themselves. over 30-50 orks die from themselves. My guardsmen finish them with hammerhand.
So fun.

Was playing a 5th ed game with an opponent known for having a bit of a temper. he was playing Blood Angels, i had my Orks. he gets 3 pens with ap2 weapons in shooting at a trukk. rolls 3 ones.

after he stopped cursing long enough to find out why I was laughing, I explained.

"ap2, plus open topped makes those ones into threes. weapon destroyed, the trukk only has 1 gun. so the next one goes up to immobilized. the last one goes up to immobilized, cant go down to weapon destroyed, so goes up to wrecked."

i then rolled Ka-boom on the ramshackle test.

Entire SM Bike Squad dies trying to get a last ditch objective through dangerous terrain

Entire

Lost game, last round at top table in a RTT. GG WP

After a squad of Pathfinders (Eldar) was assaulted by 2 Assault Terminators, and somehow killed 1, the lone surviving Pathfinder falls back (Leadership 8-8=0), about 2". My opponent charges in with his last Terminator. Regroup test - . The pathfinder gathers his wits to take a shot. Roll To Hit - Roll To Wound 3+ Invulnerable save: .

The only thing I can think of that was funnier was Zombie-spam vs Eldar. Typhus charges into a squad of Fire Dragons. Typhus challenges the Exarch. After the ensuing slaughter all that remains is a Spawn. Exarch was dead, Typhus was "promoted".

Well, I got a new one. we have a dark eldar-that guy who, unlike most that guys, is hilariously bad at the game. So eventually the tyranid player that he's lost over 20 games to in a row gets with me to build a list that he will win against.

We make it some 5 man stealers, some pyrovores, a bunch of point-sink melee carnifexes, and a swarmlord.

Dark eldar guy gave up on turn 3 because of how thrashed he was getting. (He never plays out a game if he's taken too many losses.)

I, unfortunately, did not get to see the game. They just called me and told me that he conceded on turn three, at which point I was like "how is he so bad I don't even \o.o/"

As funny as it sounds that he's losing so easily even when you pretty much try to throw him a win it's probably better for his self esteem to help him out with learning how to use his army XD

6th ed, Orks versus CSM, 1000 points. My Trukks get beat up, then one after another end up rolling on the Ramshackle table. 1st Trukk: Kareen! Right back into my deployment zone, stopping just in front of my backfield Gretchin. They breathe a sigh of relief and go back to being lazy Grots... and then it exploded, killing many of them. 2nd Trukk: Kareen! back into my DZ, stopping in front of the disembarked Boyz from Trukk 1, then explodes and inflicts several wounds on the poor Ladz. 3rd Trukk, also Kareens into my DZ, killing more troops. It was pretty much over after that. One of the funniest games I've ever lost.

Every game I play with a friend of mine, whenever I shoot one of his planes down it never fails to crash on one of my guys. Then again they never get injured by this. Played Kurze one time and we joked as he fired everything he had at him and when on my turn I killed a plane and it too landed on him.Didnt wound him but was still funny. Was waiting for a kitchen sink.

I had a funny/awful moment in 6th edition where I had an Imperial Knight + Dark Angels vs Chaos Space marines battle going. Havoks shot down the Knight and it blew up taking the land raider in the blast. Damage caused an explodes. Rerolled the pen only to get another explodes. Kills the knights inside from failed armor saves.
Couldn't believe my eyes.

We try, but he's not just a bad player, he's also "that guy." He won't listen to anyone, gets super-upset when he has models die, gives up early... After the tyranid loss he's talking about selling his army and quitting. (Not a great loss, but still, the number of players around here is slim.)

If you were playing with ogryn berzerkers (from the AI: 13 renegades and heretics) they can fail, but standard CSM codex Berzerkers have the special rule "Fearless" allowing them to instantly pass that type of test. If your son is running ogryn berzerkers I would actually like to a batrep of your's because I'm making a renegade army and want to see if they are any good. Have a good day Stormonu!

Well, "First game in 10 years" - just goes to show we missed a few rules...

In one turn... a paladin lost to a marker done in close combat, another paladin lost to a couple fire warriors in close combat, and a fully healthy Draigo died to 5 fire warriors in over watch... Those tau did their studies on how to kill grey knights.

Another game I was playing a carnifex heavy list, I have 2 fully healthy dreadknights getting ready to charge two different units of 3 carnifex... go to cast force, both knights perils, both knights roll a 1 then both fail their leadership and both get sucked into the warp. The chaos gods were some reason watching out for ol one eye and his hunting pack that day

Also, recently played against Necrons right before the new dex. Fired a Quad Gun, wrecked the Nightscythe and it fell and killed a squad of my Devastators. Same turn, melta squad jumped out, blew up a Monolith, killed 6 of them from the blast and 3 Terminators.

Back in 4th edition, you didn't have hull points, but you had an unforgiving damage table. To put this in context, a "6" as a glancing hit would wreck vehicles.

I'm running Guard with Chimeras. My opponent runs Catachans.

One Catachan with a flamethrower sneaks up next to two of my Chimeras. He hits both with the templates.

He rolls two sixes, glancing both Chimeras.

He rolls two sixes, wrecking them.

The Cadians died due to faulty products. The rest of the Chimeras were recalled and returned to the Forgeworld they were made, by dumping them on top of the Techpriests.

ID'ing T4 characters with my Runtherds.

I love that weapon upgrade.

About a week ago I played a game against a Grey Knight player. He managed to seize the initiative. I thought was was in for a world of hurt; but, when it came to the psychic phase he managed to peril every roll. He then rolled a one and failed his leadership rolls. 4s, 5s, and 6s were rolled all around, and saves were failed. When all was said and done there were 2 units left on the board. My Iron Hands figured they would finish the poor sods off and managed to either miss or the GK passed their saves. My Chapter Master and bikes had to engage the remaining 2 models in melee and didn't kill them until the second turn. It was so Bizarre we just rolled with it. In all I lost one biker, and he basically tabled himself.

One of my funny moments would probably be when my 2 scouts killed belial and a lone terminator attached to him.

4th or early 5th. I was playing IG at a tournament and met Necrons in one of my games.

His Lord managed to charge my ill-placed CCS but both of us failed to cause any unsaved wounds on the other, if it wasn't for my glorious Regimental Standard (+1 to combat resolution). My opponent fails leadership and I win at initiative. We came to the conclusion that Necrons could not understand the "arcane technology" behind fabrics

Necron Lord: "STATEMENT: RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. FORM A LINE FOR QUICKER EXTERMINATION"

Guardsman #1 - "Our weapons are useless!"

Company Commander - "Use everything, anything!"

Necron Lord - "QUERY: WHAT IS THAT FLOWING MATERIAL DISPLAYING YOUR WIN/LOSS RATIO? IT'S MECHANISM CANNOT BE CORRUPTED"

Guardsman #2 - "Wait, I got this" *Strangles the Necron lord with the Standard

Necron Lord - "SYNTAX ERROR: EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN INITIATED"

Well, fabric is a rather poor conductor, so he stuck it in his circuitry and...yeah, I got nothing. That's hilarious

Recently, I was playing a game with my IA Ork Mek list against a space marine army with a las-predator and two devastator squads armed with lascannons and missile launchers. First turn, they blow up one Deff Dredd and maim another. Things look grim. His devastator squads are positioned at the far end of the table from the rest of my army. So, it is up to my Killa Kans and the mek following them with a kustom force field to charge into the fire. For four turns, my killa kans casually stroll through the space marine army - at a leisurely walker pace, of course - slaughtering terminators, enemy walkers, the predator - about 75% of his entire army apart from the two devastator squads. How you ask? For three turns in a row, both devastator squads missed at least 50% of their shots, and the rest failed to do any damage (let that last part sink in, lacannons only fail to glance on a roll of a 1 and missile launchers on a 2!). Every so often one or two would actually damage a kan, at which point I made Gork or possibly Mork saw fit to permit me to pass my kustom forcefield save! Our theory, the space marine devastator squads were having an existential crisis and were wrapped up in debating.The whole situation went something like this...

Billy the space marine, "I mean devoting every second of every day to defending the imperium, all blessings to the emperor, is great and all, but when was the last time you saw a beach not covered in bioplasma or the taint of chaos? Just like, really soaked in a sunset while relaxing on a beach?" Jimmy two toes, "Yeah, emperor's protection, I just really want to pet a kitten without crushing him with Lenny strength, emperor's will be done." Gerald Bigsby, "The Slaanesh recruiter, may the god emperor strike him down with divine fury and infinitive merciless wrath, had some puppies the other day. I accepted a lolly pop, but totally didn't pet the puppies. I know that road leads to damnation, but when was the last time you really just treated yoself?" Steve, "You know what, all praise to the most glorious and illustrious emperor seated upon the golden throne, protector of humanity, the light it the darkness, purity in a galaxy of taint, i'm going to go grab an orange julius...wait, is it just me or did it just get quiet all of a sudden?"

Many a time with my IG. Shooting, missing and shooting, missing and shooting, missing. After all my shooting and missing is done, my opponent asks "Hammertech?" to which I reply "yea, hammertech."

Fighting against 5th edition codex Necrons with my Sentinels of Terra/Militarum Tempestus army, I managed to kill my opponents Overlord on a Command Barge...twice. Both times, he came back from the "ever-living" roll with 1W. His running away and my deep strike scatter resulted in my Scion Command Squad with 4 Meltas deep striking near him. I unloaded on it, killing it once again, and once again it reappeared. On his turn, he opens fire on the command squad, reducing them to one Scion and the Tempestor Prime, and charges in for the kill. Completely forgetting that I can attack the barge with krak grenades, the Tempestor Prime comes out swinging with a plain old basic sword...and hits once...that one hit lands a wound. The Overlord then fails his armor save...and misses his reanimation roll. After Lascannons, Grav-cannons, and a whole squad of Meltas cooking this guy, it came down to one Scion Sergeant swinging a kitchen knife to finally take down this little, metal bastard. I had a hell of a laugh over that one.
