I guess your asking me?

Well his possessed got scouts so they moved forward, then i had first turn so the hive tyrant flew over and charged them and wiped them out, then consolodated further towards his army, after then it was just 5 assault phases of systematic charge/get charged and consolodate

Oh I see.

It started as a joke at school. My friends and I used to play a lot of Quake 2 on the school network. None of them could actually beat me. Dogma was also released at the time, and we all liked it. So as a joke I used Loki as a name, a reference I knew they'd get, the Angel of Death from the movie. It just stuck. No, I'm not a pagan.

Oh ok.

Today i just whiffed 10 2+ armor saves on terminators... from ten individual spacemarines.... Bolters didnt do jack feth, lascannons i laughed at, but the bolt pistols just killed me outright.... >.>

Friend playing at a doubles tournament where the first game was essentially singles - 500pts vs 500pts.

His eldar were facign Nob Bikers, warboss and about 10 gretchin, and were gettnig hammered - immobilised falcon and a weaponless waveserpent were all that was left. The falcons holofields were epic, facing down hits with:

1, 5
1, 6
1, 5
2, 5 (but really a 1, he had the "Extra Armour" upgrade)

and so on.

Now, a spectator made a comment about the nob biker list being all eggs in one basket - to which the reply was "i have a bosspole..." - and thats when, out of desperation, the Eldar player tankshocked the nobs.

5, 6 came the leadership roll.
A wounded nob later
6,6 went the roll

"Its ok, i'm in the middle of the table so unless I roll REALLY high I'm safe!"

6, 6, 5 went the fall back roll.

WEnt from a 19-1 loss to a 19-1 win. Poor Gary, he's never been the same since

Woww thats pretty good!

The date was 6/6/6. The oppenent was Tyranids. I brought forth my Ultramarines. The table was hills in both deployments with rubble in between.

2000 or 2500pts I can't remember it's been so long. I lost 5 marines from random squads and an assault cannon off a landspeeder.
All Tyranids exterminated by top of turn 4. Best game ever.

How is the champion? Is he really worth it?

In a fun game, playing agasint my frienda plauge marines, I took a 50 man IG squad with 5 commissars and a lord commissar, all with PW. After 3 turns the only thing left was the 5 commissars and the lord. Then the new "commissar squad" procceded to assualt a 10 man plauge squad and won.

My Company command squad (What have I been smoking?) charging an orc warboss and a squad of nobz. They cut down the 5 nobz in the squad quickly. The warboss inflicts 2 wounds, killing 2 of my soldiers. The Commander and the other two beat him down.

What was the points ratio? Seems pretty good!
