IG: "those guys with the goofy hats the space marines save, right? They like, guard the planets and when they die the real soldiers get sent in."
Orks: "oh yeah orks are awesome! Waaagh! Red paint! They're goofy!"
Harlequins: "what? Are they an army? ....they're like Eldar, right? How many Scatterbikes do you have? Are those Scatterbikes, I'm not playing against you. Wait are those Venoms? I thought you played Eldar not Dark Eldar..."
|
"Got you, Yugi! Your Rubric Marines can't fall back because I have declared the tertiary kaptaris ka'tah stance two, after the secondary dacatarai ka'tah last turn!"
"So you think, Kaiba! I declared my Thousand Sons the cult of Duplicity, which means all my psykers have access to the Sorcerous Facade power! Furthermore I will spend 8 Cabal Points to invoke Cabbalistic Focus, causing the rubrics to appear behind your custodes! The Vengeance for the Wronged and Sorcerous Fullisade stratagems along with the Malefic Maelstrom infernal pact evoked earlier in the command phase allows me to double their firepower, letting me wound on 2s and 3s!"
"you think it is you who has gotten me, yugi, but it is I who have gotten you! I declare the ever-vigilant stratagem to attack your rubrics with my custodes' ranged weapons, which with the new codex are now DAMAGE 2!!"
"...which leads you straight into my trap, Kaiba, you see I now declare the stratagem Implacable Automata, reducing all damage from your attacks by 1 and triggering my All is Dust special rule!" |

The guard only fight with tanks and hordes of infantry. Guardsmen only exist to lubricate tank treads with their blood. There are no tactics beside sit there, let them come to us and bum rush them.

Lets see
Coteaz really must have hated my orks since he was in almost every battle fought last edition. But he is ok with my radical inquisitor army since I hardly face him any more.
There must be a forge world that recently upped their grav weapon and knight production,they would probably be pretty rich right now.
The wolf breeding program must have gone horrible out of control they are sending them in battle in large numbers to reduce the population.
Tau battle suits, 1 inquisitor with servo skulls, spore mines and flyrants. This is easy the suits are filled with a genestealer cult and the inquisitor is really a genestealer magos.
Kyros must be the only greater tzeentch deamon left and he really loves to bring his council.
There must be a space marine outlaw biker gang with a love of big dogs that doesn't give a crap about normal chapter organisation rules.
Some major forgeworlds are involved in rhino and razorback price wars.
The baron was the great divide between the dark and the normal eldar. They get along perfectly now since they killed him.

Your army is all about cheap disposable models.
Your army should not be able to compete with Space Marines on any terms.
WAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHH, FRFSRF OP, YOU KILLED A MARINE!
Cheap Meatshields
Tanks
Imperial Guard tanks are massively OP, you shouldnt be able to bring multiples of them

You play Dark Eldar? Urggg, so much cheese in your army! They're such pansy space elves that are tricksy and are easy to win with.
It's...very surprising how people call my Dark Eldar out as being OP when, in my opinion, we are in fact one of the weaker armies out there.
Fluffwise, my army is known around the store as the Spandex Wearing Space Elves.

If we have to fight then we will melt you on turn 1 with our Feta guns and Colby equipment until your are covered in our thick Nacho sauce for we are king Limburger sitting on the Mozzarella throne in our Provolone castle protected by our walls of Cheddar and surrounded by a moat of Fondue and the tears of small children. Also we our space communists who equally distribute our rations of Brie and Ricotta to all those who follow the Greater Gouda.
Grey Knights: We are the 2nd born of our spiritual liege Matt Ward. Our purity is unmatched by even the Ultrasmurfs and all those who have witnessed what we have seen must be cleansed by holy fire. Sometimes our terminators get cranky so they take a nap in the termy harness while mamma dreadknight goes grocery shopping and kills greater daemons.
