I just killed a destroyer lord on a flying beetle thing, with 2 termagants!

5th: Emperor's champion, assault termies, and helbrecht charge abaddon and his terminator champions. Helbrecht wipes most of the termies, then he and most of my termies get their face punched in by abaddon. The combat lasts for rounds, with the last TH/SS termie and the EC whittling him down, resulting in abby finally killing himself with his daemon weapon. The best part was that it was a team game and we let the eldar player fortune abaddon.

5th: Emperor's champion and two terminators (not sure if they died) make it across the board against tau. At this point, there are maybe 4 marines other than them left on the table and a huge blob of kroot. The EC makes all his saves after doing two wounds, and sweeps the kroot. That was an enjoyable game for me and my opponent, especially since it was so close.

6th: Dante deepstrikes with a squad of SG next to some flyers, and the SG get wiped by the guard army. Over the next two turns dante infernus pistols a vendetta and tears the other apart after it hovered.

6th: My Master of Sanctity (TDA, Thunderhammer, Lightning claw) and a space wolf HQ (with the eternal warrior thing and a frost blade in addition to TDA) are in a challenge. The space wolf squad also had one of their chaplains so they were fearless. It ended up with my opponent's lord killing mine, but the 5 or 6 turn combat was epic and worth the time.

5th: In a last ditch effort my 10 tyranid Gargoyles charge a unit of 3 broadsides. I get seven wounds. My friend makes his saves, ROLLS SIX ONES. He threw away his dice after the game

6th- GK Grandmaster and his 5 man Strike Squad vs 10 strong fortuned/guided Wraithguard with Eldrad. He tries to assault me first and fails, I assault him and make it, but lose 2 strikes to overwatch. Grandmaster Challenges Eldrad and he accepts. Eldrad goes first, I make both saves. I go next, cause exactly three wounds. Eldrad fails his 3 3++, rerolls them, FAILS THEM ALL AGAIN and DIES. With no more runes of warding Grandmaster and last 3 strikes proceed to wipe out the wraithguards in the next turn.

5th ed - My doomed Vulkan He'stan killed the Avatar ok Khaine in 1v1 combat in one assault phase without taking a wound.

6th ed - After Pedro Kantor was blown out of his ride by Dante and his Sanguinary Guard body guard I called down Pedro's orbital bombardment which killed all but Dante. Pedro then charged Dante and slew him in a Challenge.

I don't get to play very often so this may seem lame to some but hey to each is own...

5th edition; Vanilla Dex: My tac squad has just been ripped up in the previous shooting phase but was out of assault range. The squad went from 10 to 3. Only 3 left, Sarg, ML and a bolter. The SM with the ML hits a Chaos Landraider loaded with Terminators. Rolled and made Pen. The Damage roll resulted in an Explosion result. (I rolled 4 6's in a row for that attack and damage.) On top of it my opponent failed all 5 of his Terminators Bailout rolls.

Those fallen sons felt the Emperors wrath on that dice roll. I did go on to loss that game however, but that was quite a memorable moment.

Completely destorying Commander Shadowsun with Ezekiel's Prime Power! Got lucky with the D3 roll and Mind Wormed her to death LOL. You should have seen his face

6th edition - imotekh's lighting strikes turn 1 kills 4 kabalite worriers (squad of 10) they break and run off the board.
6th edition - tollzyn kills 1 death company marine followed by 6/10 death company marines with empathic obliterator
5th edition - playing orks in a teaching game krak missile to SM commanders face turn 1
6th edition - killing off a 12 man squad of fire worriers with snap shots with GH
6th edition - this is by far my fav SW v DE a single lascannon shot hits a ravenwing jetfighter, pentrates and blows it up the turn it arrived, it did no damage what so ever

6th edition:

200 point tricked out khorne lord on jugger challenges my strike squad, I except and strike first with halberd. 2 attacks hitting on 5s and wounding on 5s, 1 makes it through, he fails his 4++ save and then I precede to roll a double 1 for force weapon, killing the lord and perils myself haha, was epic

In a game of Apoc we had two very nice things happen:

1) Chainreaction o' doom

We were playing Orks,IG and SW versus Crons, Grey Knights and IG. Our Ork player fielded an Ork bomber which bombed an Immortals squad into oblivion. Not overly amused, the Necron player shot it down right away in his turn and that was where the fun started:

- Ork flyer gets shot down
- we place the template for the crashing flyer
- it lands on a Pikkup nearby
- the pikkup blows up, but due to it's special rule it speeds right into the squad of Immortals that shot the flyer
- explodes there
- kills almost al Orks inside and Necrons outside
- necrons then fail morale and run away, obviously too scared to stay around and find out what further shooting would do against Orks

2) Bug squashing

The Ork player had chosen the strategic option that lets you place a 10" TK template which scatters d6 feet (I believe we were more scared of that thing then our opponents )
We chose to target it on a 50 man blob in the far corner of the board(as far awy from us as possible) and it scatters 3 feet into the middle right into an empty space. Well, almost empty.
In the exact center of the template was a lone Tomb Stalker which had carefully manouvered there to avoid it being shot to pieces

Man, I really need to play Apoc again...

My best was a single spine gaunt shooting into rear armor of a Death Company Drednaught in 4th Ed. It exploded and killed the spine gaunt but it was amazing.

Doesn't really matter with nids, they number too many for you to really care if you lose one measly little gaunt lol

Ya i was just surprised that a spine gaunt managed to kill a DC Dred

I killed a wounded Titan in an apocalypse game with a single Sister Repentia on the charge, after the thing had wiped out pretty much everything else on the board.

I still lost, but she brought that Titan down, mano-a-mano! Just looking at her little model standing there at one of his feet was... inspiring.

I think that's what's known as a Kratos kill lol

Actually my best shot was in 2nd Ed, when crazy things could happen with vehicles. I was playing Guard against a combined Blood Angel/Ultramarine army. Looking at my selection of targets with my Basilisk I could only see some Assault Marines. Back then Basilisks fired twice in the shooting phase, so you'd hope to hit with one and miss with the other so it'd scatter somewhere. It did just that, and thinks quickly went haywire.

The first shot hits the Assault Marine and the four guys standing around him. They all die. The shot also clips the track of a Land Raider. The Land Raider flips (essentially destroying it) and lands on a Marine with a Missile Launcher, killing him. Best first shot ever, but that wasn't the end of it! The shot that missed scattered and hit a Land Speeder. Land Speeder goes out of control and crashes into a Dreadnought. They both explode. The explosion causes the other Land Speeder to go out of control and it crashes into the Marine's only Techmarine, blowing him to pieces (and the Land Speeder exploded on impact).

The Marines didn't have much fight in 'em after that!

Yeah 2nd ed was great fun with all that calamity that could happen. If you've seen the beginning of this thread, the dreadnought kill was hilarious!

Apocalypse match I was watching; guy rolled a 35 on the distance for an apocalyptic explosion. It didn't help that the board was tiny (by apocalypse standards).

I had an opponent's necrons shift his Warriors + 3 HQs (the Guy with the Body Guard and his Body Guard, + an 3++ Lord) and scatter into a 5man combat squad who where cowering in a set of trees.

In a time that I actually did the killing, my first game of 6th. I was playing a Chaos Player who was enjoying the new Nurgle + Biker rules.

His HQ is as Nurgle Biker Sorceror. He solo charges it into a combat squad. I issue a challenge, the Sergeant determined to sacrifice himself to save his Battle Brothers.

He's using a Force Axe, so the brave Sergeant swings first. He connects with 3 of his hits, and manages to wound the Nurgle Sorceror twice.

I'm pretty surprised. Normally my sergeants go down like wet potatoes, and my dice hate close combat. Just as I get ready to pull my model (who fails two armour saves at once?) he rolls, and fails both armour saves. My Sgt had managed to do it. Slay a Nurgle Biker Sorceror in one round of combat.

Sgt. Badass still leads squads to this day, battling all sorts of enemies and winning. Despite his red-helmet(shirt) handicap.

My Dice made up for it a little while later by dying horribly to fire warriors.

I've had a few good luck kills, too, like a snap fire lascannon taking out a Niphilim, Bolt Pistols taking out the rear armour of a Vendetta, and a few first turn Land Raider kills with a Vindicator after I've seized the initiative.

3rd ed, one basilisk shot killing 3 chaos rhinos and all the berzerkers inside each, the rest of the daemons cannot deploy.

1 shot victory.

One DE monoscythe from my friend killed 3 of my lrbt. 6e

My Emperor's Champion charged friends Warboss. Didn't land a hit on the charge, then failed every. single. armour save. Dead in one fell swoop :/ It was pretty epic, though

5th ed, my zoanthrope killed a chaos lord without taking any wounds.
6th ed, 5 watches over watch a daemon prince to death, subsequently, my opponent tried to charge his chaos lord on steed at them too, fails charge range,and gets shoot to pieces by kabalites, almost 500 points down the drain. Tabled him that game, was excellent fun though.

This one happened in 5th

After an incredibly good turn of shooting in a kill-point game, All I had left was the Emperor's Champion. Solomon(he has been named after a soon to be mentioned kill), proceeds to hack, slash and stab his way through 55 Guardsmen, an LRBT, his Primaris Psyker and 2 ogryns before the game ended. I won 8-7.

These next two happened in 6th

The afore-mentioned Emperor's Champion kills a Wraithlord. In single combat. Without dying. 'nuff said.

My Master of Sanctity gets charged by an Overlord with CCB, Warscythe, MSS and pretty much anything else you can think of. This duel lasted 4 turns. He failed the MSS ONCE! I think The Master of Sanctity killed him about 3 times. Only took 1 wound in return.

I had a sisters dominion squad with melta guns wiped out to just the superior and one with the melta gun. Ork mega dread charged in for an easy kill point on the scouring, fast =point. Well the MG rolled a 6 during overwatch. Rolled a 6 for pen and a 6 for result. One lucky shot but it was amazing. They then ran to cover behind a wrecked rhino denying the kill point.

Using the old DE codex in 5th edition (before the new one came out), my Jetbike Archon and a Great Unclean One fought each other the whole game. With the Archon finally winning on the bottom of the last turn.

Epic.

I just couldn't fail a shadowfield that day. Took a long time to get through all those wounds though. He came down turn 1 and I just wanted to tie him up while my army zoomed around, didn't think the fight would last that long. I could have sent in some wyches later on, but by then pride was on the line.

New CSM codex, new luck. Picked up my plague marines. Fighting against dark eldar. 9 of 10 men got shoot down and failed every save roll. The last man stands there and survives 3 turns of shooting. Then a unit of harlequins gets into cc range. "Okay chums lets do this, PLAGUEEEEE MUHREEEENNN!" charges into cc, kills 2 harlequins, survives for two additional rounds and kills all the harlequins. I lost the game but he was the last dude, defending his mission point. He got promoted to plague champion.

Played a huge Apoc game a couple years ago during 5th, Battle for the Shrine. The first turn my Stompa comes in Flank Marchin' and lighting up a Flying Thunderhawk. Stompy unloads into it...and manages to take off a structure point (even 3 Grot Bombs hitting on a 2+ did jack). 3 of the Flash Gitz sittin' in his belly decide to do what they do best , and shoot out the windows. I roll 2 1's and a 2. I reroll (thanks' ammo runts!) and roll 2 6's. And then roll 2 more 6's.

FLASH GITZ TAKE DOWN A THUNDERHAWK!!!!

Probably one of the best gaming moments I've ever had

Lol awesome! Dakka dakka dakka!! Waaaaaaaghhh!

I was playing a game against some Grey Knights and i deep struck some stormtroopers ( 10 man )their was Draigo and a Retinue of some normal 3+ save Marines , i open fire whiff and kill only 4 , he assualts and kills all but one of the lucky Bastards ( the SGT . ) So just for gaks and giggles , i Challange Draigo with my Sergeant ( armed with a Power Axe )-- This Stormtrooper goes 3 rounds with Draigo and kills Draigo and not only that Freaking Sweeping Advances the rest of the grey knight Unit ....... My opponent and i were so Shocked we both just stood their for like 2 minutes , Needless to say i found the skill to paint the Star of Terra on his chestplate he is that Awesome .......needless to say Darigo magically avoids assualting that Stormtrooper unit who i've gone and named " God hammer "

4th Ed- Turn 1, hunter seeker missile on rhino (infinite range, always strikes rear armour) hits an ork trukk containing Gazghull and heavily armoured nobz. Causes an explosion, kills three of the nobs, Gazghull then spends rest of game trying to play catch up to rest of his army, and is eventually killed before getting into CC

6th Ed- Making jokes with buddy about assault cannons rending vs vehicles prior to game. Face mech marine list. Hit Landraider with terminator assault cannon, rend, penetration, explosion. Kills 2 terminators I think. They then spend all game trying to get to my lines.
