I do, more or less, but I still refer to the book for vehicle crap.

I refer to it for assault crap. Being a tau player I never really had to learn about that.

When your oponent brings their four-year-old to the game.

When some says that the FLGS plays warhammer, and when you go with all of your crap. You find out it was fantasy, and no 40k what so ever.

When you lose more of your army to friendly fire/dangerous terrain. Thank to enemy fire.

I honestly don't know why they have so many kinds of CCW in a game with guns. A heavy bolter would easily be able to cut down an entire bayonet charging guard blob, logically. But apparently miniguns only fire 18 times per battle in the 41st millenium

You have obviously forgotten that logic has nothing to do with this game.

I miss 4th ed
That's when I started, and it was better than 5th ed.
4th ed actually applied physics and 'real' psychology (i,e, target priority tests etc.)

THIS IS NOT A QUOTE PYRAMID THIS IS A DISCUSSION

Anywho, 4th ed was when I could take on MEQs confidently. I miss the golden age of the commie fish!

You know that sinking feeling when...

... your Chaos Dreadnought goes crazy with Fire Frenzy on the first turn of the game... (and shoots a heavy flamer and bolter that can't hurt it at your strategically-placed Land Raider, whew)

... then rolls Fire Frenzy AGAIN on the second turn...
... AND the fourth turn...
... AND the fifth turn...

... Then FINALLY rolls something that's not a Fire Frenzy after getting one of its combat arms shot off - instead it rolls a Blood Rage! It's angry about its missing arm! It moves towards the closest enemy, the enemy HQ! Finally, some progress! It's actually going somewhere instead of pissing impotently into the wind with a flamer! It looks like it can make it into combat, too! Then it rolls to run...

... and rolls a one on its run...
... leaving it seven inches away from said HQ unit that it really wanted to punch in the face.

/sigh

One thing I used to do for larger points games was 6 units of FW with DF and 3 units of PF with devilfish and use my nine D-fish for the ultimate version of Fish O' Fury. Basically park my whole army behind them and watch the rage.

Something like that, yeah. XD Certainly made for an entertaining game. Fortunately the rest of my army made up for my dread's impotence, hehehe.

SO MANY QUOTE PYRAMIDS! Anyway...

You know that sinking feeling you get when you turn your back on your megaforce for 2 minutes fumbling for a bit in your bitz box and most of the sprues for the Drop Pod, Land Raider and Tactical Squads are in the hands of a small child with wire clippers and glue...

At one time, we all were that little kid. Blap probably did something like that when he was about 10 years old.

Anywho, please recommend this thread to any people you know in real life or just through dakka. Let's make this thread a perpetual one

...When sesquipedalian loquaciousness means using overly long words to get a point across.

OH DEAR GOD! You must have done some awful gak for karma to punish you like that!

Maybe. I managed to snatch the sprues before something terrible happened. As soon as I got them he scarpered. I seriously hope it was just a misconception, but I doubt it highly. Anyways, I still can't find the commander sprue to this day. GW shopkeeper replaced it with a brand new box, though.

That's too bad about the command sprue, even though it got replaced. It doesn't feel right when a model(s) is replaced by an identical one, when the original belonged to a greater whole.

...when no one has stayed on topic in about a page MORE SINKING FEELINGS YAH!

I get that sinking feeling when my Terminaters deepstrike off the table.

He just sounds like a bad kid tbh.

Yeah I had a kid take my Commander R'alai. My expensive, FW commander R'alai.

And also, the worst was some kid tried to steal the heavy railgun on my manta. There are no replacement parts, if I hadn't gotten it back, I would have had to drop ANOTHER 1500$ on a brand new manta...and I'd have three.

That sinking feeling when someone drives a Furioso with Blood Talons into your biggest Boyz Mob

You know that sinking feeling when the first thing your opponent says is a yo momma joke

That sinking feeling you get when your DC Dread with all relevant upgrades falls 2 inches away (through Dif Terrain) from your opponents melta-deathstar unit.

That sinking feeling my opponent's termie-heavy army gets when I explain that each of my nine XV9s gets 2D3 melta a turn at BS4 with 2W per model and S/T 5
