Some sort of special "house rule?"

having my Librarian with 1 wound fry his brain with perils of the warp using his force weapon, however the strike killed my opponents Trygon. Epic.

Playing against Necron, he used a Particle whip and targetted a Wave Serpent that just spit out a Full squad of Howling Banshees the previous turn (they ate a squad of warriors, but got back up thanks to a nearby lord) he rolled scattered and landed the shot on a Necron lord with a Res orb, and his attachted squad of warriors. . . which took massive casualties.

He then goes to fail about 90% of his "we'll be back" rolls, uses the Monolith's portal to try to re-roll and get this squad back, rolls even MORE ones. . . . and phases out.

all in turn 3

Eldar opponent tried to Assault a depleted squad of Trukk boys off of an objective in cover. He was assaulting with one Autarch on a jet bike. His Dangerous terrain roll............. a 1. KABOOM! Laughter everywhere as well as Autarch bits. The reference was StarWars Return of the Jedi when the speederbike crashed into the tree int he forrest of Endor.

My funniest moment ever was a when a squad of normal marines was in combat with their chaos counterpart from turn 1(shrike had joined them, we were testing out shrike) and were locked in combat all the way to turn 7 with no casualties! We decided that the chaos marines must've come from the same chapter as the loyalists they were in combat with and they knew each others moves by heart.

Turn 1 both my rhino's get stuck in the woods before moving anywhere. Atleast I learned from it.

Turn one, battlecannon shot from Defiler takes out both my Predator annihalator and a Landspeeder Typhoon, the only two units that could punish it quickly.

First shot of the game, 250pts gone. Wasn't happy. The Defiler then proceeded to laugh off everything I threw at it for the rest of the game.

How did a Half-Str battlecannon Kill the Landspeeder(i assume it was a direct hit on the pred and Partial on the LS)

the worst that could have happned to the Speeder would be an immobilized or a Weapon destroyed. he must have rolled alot of 6s

Immobilized, in a squadron too, lots of sixes...

I played a game in which 10 sternguard (all with combi-meltas) shot from below half range at a land raider.

3 missed.

7 failed armour penetration.

I ate one of the sternguard in fury.

Although later that game a Bike sergeant with a powerfist had the rest of his squad pie-plated by a vindicator (this game was not going well), failed leadership. Then he regrouped, assaulted the vindicator, destroyed it. Then the opponent tank-shocked him with a rhino, death or glory, destroyed it. On turn five he just cruised back over to the objective he had been holding .

ten failed meltas have got to hurt, sturnguard have BS4 correct?

My bezerkers are a source of comedy gold. If they dont lose 6-8 models when their transport gets blown (usually the 1st 2nd turn), then they assault and kill maybe a guardsman. Ever since i started playing them as a khorne cult with spacewolf rules... well 6 of them counterattack 12 boyz and left the nob standing

I've said it before but this is the worst to happen to me.

Monolith particle whips a squad, the shot scatters back, pen's the monolith and explodes it. I had 2 squads of warriors awaiting reserve entry *failed to come in that round* and that was the only monolith in my list. I phased myself out.

Yup BS 4.

i had two bomb squigs both of which ran and blew up my own trucks and killed some of my men

Come on Dakka, I know you have more stories than this.

I blew up a bastion with a lascannon and the wall landed on my land raider which had a daemon prince flying around it. They both died and my chaos dreadnought ran into the explosion to kill himself.

Nope, no house rules... Just standard 2nd ed rules.

EDIT: Actually the rhino falling through the bridge was a terrain specific house rule. We couldn't decided if tanks should be able to cross, so agreed to roll a dice each time one tried and the bridge would collapse on a roll of 1 or 2... eventually my Rhino got unlucky.

I had one objective and the other two were contested, the enemy had ghazghull (full wounds) and 5 nobs about 7" away from my objective, it was my last turn and he would have killed me and taken my objective if i didnt kill him so i fired my shock attack gun at him getting a double 6 and dead on on the scatted dice and killing the squad i then won the game by 1 point.
My friend funnies (not mind) was probobley when he wounded my mawloc 5 times in one round of combat with 12 kroot and i was the one who assulted!

An IG guy rapid fired with his 2 remaining Conscripts, out of the 50 he started with and killed my 3 remaining Terminators.

This sucked!, I had one guy left he had a plasma rifle. killed heaps of little orks and there was 2 left. I rolled to hit but over heat! i lsot my match and $5

Had a table full of models and a fly comes and lands on my great unclean one out of all the models

i was playing a game in gw and it was gay pride down the street and when they were finshed they came in gw and started hugging all of us

also 7 guardsmen took down a chaos termi lord in close combat

Didn't anyone ever tell you not to put raw meat inside your models?

One game back in 3rd edition where I misinterpreted my D-cannon into something ridiculous and ended up destroying 50% of my own army in one salvo. I blew up a wave serpant, the guys fell down and got hurt, the second shot hit another wave serpant, the guys hoped out unharmed, and the blast grazed a pirahna, blowing it up and killing most of the squad that got hurt and forcing a lds test on the other squad who proceeded to fallback. That's when I packed up my stuff and left. lol

Wow, eldar have Pirannas now

I understand! My nurglings ended up in a bowl of spaghetti once and they've smelled like Parmesan cheese ever since

No :-\. I was playing against Tau and the shot scattered off the squad of 4 pirahnas and onto my own guys. It scattered like 11 inches because I was even trying to be careful and attack the far end.

A dark eldar ravanger deep striked into my baneblade and the leman russ it was holding popped out and shot the ravanger with its volcano cannon. It blew up and crashed into a unit of chaplains.
