Ah yes I just remembered another probably more satisfying kill.

I was using my Vet IG army, which at the time was not complete so I had to impliment some Infatry platoons to fatten out my army. I was aginst my same ol' SM opponent, And it was going rather well, and During one of my shooting fases proved rather nasty,
My opponent said quite clearly, "if you kill one of my terminators with one lasgun I'll forfit the game"
I commense shooting, not rapid firing I might add, A single Lasbolt(laserpointer) burnt the Terminators eye thus killing him out right. Oh the satisfying feeling that laserpointers are somewhat deadly, on the rare occasions.

Unfortuinatly he didnt forfit and manged to bring the game to a draw.

Mine just happened tonight. My 1500point SM Army vs. his 1500 point DA army. My 1 tac squad must've killed close to two squads of his Terminators, and I got my first Heavy Support vehicle kill. I got a direct hit on his Land Raider with an orbital bombardment, and wrecked it. Mind you, this is the 4th serious game I've played and the first time using a 1500 point army.

2nd ed, my greenskins vs Chaos.

One of my squads of 30 grotz opens up on a 5 man squad of chaos terminators from just inside their max range.
Kill one.
Next turn, both sides close, I lose 5 grotz, he loses one more terminator.
CC rolls around... grots come out on top!

Here are two encounters that are somewhat similar to each other. Both take place in the early days of third edition 40K.

I agreed to play a game against an opponent’s warhound titian(he had a dated 1st or 2nd edition model) that joined his chaos army. The guy had found some rules for the vehicle in a non GWS website. It cost about 700 points and had crazy moment rules and about 10 void shields. I was playing my raider heavy DE and spent much of the game chasing and shooting at the titian. I forget the exact movement rules the titian used but it was able to outrun my entire raider army. I rolled an enhanced assault move for my wyches’ combat drug effects and by funneling the titian I was just able to have my wyches assault it using the raider movement, fleeting, and assaulting 12 inches. Then I rolled lucky on my haywire attacks and stalled the titian and finished it off next combat round. Later my opponent approached me with the information that the author of the web rules had changed the price of the warhound from 700 to 1500 due to feedback he was receiving to his site.

I later played against a super baneblade with player made rules and managed to get my large seer counsel into combat with it and they hacked it to pieces with their witchblades. It was rather rewarding to butcher that monster in a single round of combat, I ended up rolling something like 5 glancing hits and 8 penetrating hits.

Necromunda Game, I was using my Van Saar gang vs my best friends Cawdor gang.

He had several of his gangers and his leader on top of a three story building firing at my gang. His leader, who was right on the edge, takes a wound and gets knocked off the building, the resulting fall leaves him in the battle but knocked down on the ground level. One of my gangers takes a frag grenade and tosses it at the gangers on top of the building. It scatters and falls off the building RIGHT onto his leader. The explosion taking him out of the game.

We laughed for a long time describing the wounded leader staring up at the grenade as it falls from three stories.

He rolled stupidty on the chart after the game and had a mentally challenged leader from there on out. It was definently one of my favorite Necromunda moments.

Fantasy: Killing a Bloodthirster with a Helblaster in one round of shooting.

40k: Killing a Carnifex with a Techmarine.

Got to be seeing my opponent s face when Calgar and friends get flanked by genestealers. Works like a charm every time

Nice to see another necromunda comment. I had cawdor and redemptionist as regular opponents as well. For those who didn’t play, redemptionist were a 40K mix of the KKK and the Spanish Inquisition the cawdor where like a toned down and legal version of them. It always was satisfying to fling them off buildings, set them on fire, swarm them with zombies, or throw them in the pot and eat them when playing scavvies.

I don't have a most satisfying, which is a bit sad to be honest.

I do have a least satisfying!

My friend plays Eldar, and he's ridiculously good. I ran a genestealer list against him and had a broodlord with retinue and a squad of genies on an objective. He unloads a serpent full of harlies and they end up assaulting the broodlord's squad and the genie squad in order to pour "no retreat" wounds all over the place. Lord+3, and then 7 more genies vs 10 harlies and the harlies charged with rerolls to hit. I could see those two squads exploding into nothingness.

I took a total of 16 wounds, he took 14. After saves (rending on them, not power weapons), I had 7, he had 5. I lost by two, saved both overflow wounds. Next round the lord and retinue are dead and it's 4 genies vs 5 harlies. With rerolls to hit the remaining 45 harlies proceeded to 6 hits, 12 after rerolls. Zero wounds. The genies then wiped the squad and kept the objective.

I've never seen luck so horrible before. Not even when I watched a taun player fire 24 shots and only hit with 2. My eldar buddy had REROLLS and still failed to perform.
