.... When your friend shoots your beautiful models with a bb gun, then "accidentally" shoots your ipad while you write your army list on there.

When your SAG's Raaargh scatters on top of your 700+ point deathstar unit O_o

When you invest in a megaforce, only to find that every single person tells you the contents are garbage to start a new army.

Of course, I was told this after I started assembling models

When you find that your opponent has arranged a walk of shame for a retreating Deathstar.

When you find that your character has been swamped in Ork Boyz and, since he's not fearless, was destroyed

I know this.....i play orks....

When you find that some Tau Player (Sorry random and killy) has ravaged the painting horribly (Olive green and purple? Red as well? You look like something that ought to float in cocktail) then cannot play to save his life.

As in, moving FW straight forward towards enemy BA, then when they get locked in combat send in the closest unit, which happens to be Pathfinders. Meanwhile he's walking his Kroot around shooting, not locking in a single assault.

When you hear all the horrid stories that come out of FLGS and GW stores where people drown in Douchebags...

Someone utters the word Failcost / Finecrapst / Finecost / Insert other desperate stab at Finecast here.

Lost a couple stores that way.


...when the Avatar is the last thing between your guardsmen and the objective, has a single wound, and not only do you miss every shot...but you fail every subsequent CC roll.

Has happened to me more times than I care to remember.

Damn right.



.....when you can't fit your two troops & one HQ in your deployment zone

I alone had 30 boyz, 30 grots, Old Zogwort, and we were playing a 2vs2 spearhead.

Yeah, my tau don't look like power rangers. They have plain urban desert camp, much like the USMC.

Also, any even legitimately mediocrely minded tau player would know to avoid cqb as much as possible.

...When people start hating on Mac computers and say that windows is better

When your opponent knocks over his Coke can, spilling it all over your Crisis suit commander.

Happened to me once, too. The only difference was that it was some other friend, and not my opponent. We went medieval on him.

you know the sinking feeling when you face a vendetta in a killteam game...

When you're the only player at your FLGS who can do more than twenty push ups.

When you're the only player at your FLGS who can do more than ten push ups.

When you're the only player at your FLGS who can do 5 push ups.



When You sit down and hear "crunch". Sorry, Anghkor prok

Try showing up to fight an all bolter Sternguard kill team with a GK Stormraven, only to be told by the Store Manager that somehow, there is an unwritten rule than vehicles are not allowed in Killteam....


when you are told by the store manager....

What's the killteam scenario?

Its a battle Mision

0-2 troopps, 0-1 FA, 0-1 Elites, no HQ or Heavy, 200pts. Small table with maxed out terrain.

3 models can get up to one USR each for free, but each must be different, so no giving all of them EW or FNP.

To win, you must reduce your opponent's model count to 50% model count. Then they take a morake test on the highest surving Ld in the army. If they pas, continue, if they fail they lose. On the next turn they take the test on -1 Ld, on the turn after -2, and so ion. Untill one player fails and his opponent doesn't,.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also, ever model counts as a one man unit, so they can be targeted sperately and shoot different targets.

...when you ask the GW guys at the local store if Ratlings are worth it, and they say "Ratlings? Is that some sort of new Veteran model?"

Unless I bring Crisis suits, which would just beat anything in that particular scenario.

Or 2x XV9, and some firewarriors to round it out.

Since I play tau, too, OH YEAH! forgot about suits with pods and rifles.

When your flgs manager decides to close the shop for lunch break, and you forget your jacket while it snows..... Those orks had a good time wit their flamethrowers.

I play killteam almost every week at my FLGS....

You guys do know that you cant have a model with an AV in killteams, right?

I played a vendetta against a squad of kreig deathriders and a heavyweapons squad with 3 lascannons (I still beleive they were supposed to be part of a platoon but I haven't seen the imperial armor entry)... I lost on turn 2...
