Canoptek Scarab Swarms
All consuming Von Neuman swarm: At the start of every controlling player's movement phase place one Canoptek Scarab swarm base in base contact with any existing Canoptek Scarab base of the same unit per Canoptek Scarab base that existed at the begining of the turn. If the models cannot be placed the excess scarabs will burrow underground- split off any remaining unplacable models to form a new unit and place it in deepstrike reserve, it will deepstrike on the following turn.
Ever Consuming: Units of Canoptek Scarab swarms in ongoing reserves double their nuber of models every turn.
Endless Numbers: Units of Canoptek Scarabs have no model limit. During a controlling player's movement phase he can opt to merge or split up Canoptek Scarab swarm units by moving models into and out of coherency with them. A Canoptek Scarab swarm unit that is to be split must leave at least 10 models in each resulting unit.
Canoptek Constuctors: If a Canoptek Spyder is present on the battlefield or in active reserve units of Canoptek Scarabs my forgo multiplying to instead construct Necron war machines of a point value of np more than that of the sum total of their existing Scarab bases. Necron naval vessels as represented in Battlefleet Gothic are considered to be worth 100 times their listed point value.
Out of Control: If the Necron player loses a game while the point value of his remaining Scarab bases is at least equal to that of his opponent's remaining forces the game is a draw as the Scarabs, bereft of a commanding intelligence, multiply out of control and consume the planet (unless exterminatus level measures are undertaken to contain them).

CSM:

Zombie Plague:
When one of your zombie models kills another model, the killed model becomes another zombie, with the standard zombie statline. This does not affect vehicles, but it does affect MC's.

Warmaster of Chaos:
When Abaddon is part of your army, at the start of your movement phase, you may DS up to 3 units of 10 Bloodletters for free.

Sisters of Battle: At the end of the last turn, if your army has fewer Victory Points than your opponent, you win anyway, because miracles.

Supersaiyan faith powers: If any SoB unit completes a charge against any enemy Super-heavy Vehicle or Gargantuan Creature, it is immediately removed from play, overriding the normal D3 wounds mechanic (If it is a Gargantuan Creature) or causing a Super-heavy Vehicle to suffer to be Flipped, as described in the Apocalypse rulebook.

Furthermore, the Sisters player may ignore any facepalms made by the opposition.

Is that fluffy?

Adepta Sororitas army special rules:

Wouldn't hit a girl: The first time an enemy unit rolls a hit on an Adepta Sororitas model, immediately suspend play, fill your eyes with tears, and say "You -- you hit me?"
All enemy models in the combat immediately lose all their attacks and reduce their WS to 1 as they shuffle around, looking ashamedly at their feet.
The Sisters attack as normal.

Catfight, catfight: Whenever two Adepta Sororitas detachments are on opposing sides, immature spectators are permitted to gather and call out "Catfight! Catfight! Meoowr!" If they do so, however, the Sororitas players may burn them to death. In real life, not in the game.

You always say the best stuff. Keep it up.

Not entirely, but neither are most other rules presented here.

It is overpowered, certainly.

And faith, maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan.

Faaaaaaaaaith.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Also, if SoB ever fight Emperor's Children, both players immediately lose the game as they drown in giggling spectators.

He Has Those Nicknames For a Reason: If a player fields Abaddon the Despoiler, he must be dropped onto the table from 24" up when he deploys. If his arms break off, the simple lunacy of the Abaddon the Armless meme overcomes all rules and real fluff-- the side using him loses and must plan yet another Black Crusade for a later date.

Grey Knights: At the end of the game, regardless of victory points, playing against non-Inquisition Imperial forces (IG, SM, DA, BA, SW), Guard units are executed and Space Marine forces are mindwiped. GK player wins.

Lol. If only GK were 1/10 that cool.

Imperial Guard: If you have fewer victory points than your opponent at the end of the last turn, immediately play the game again with the same forces. Repeat until you finally win.

You mean "with your starting forces and the surviving models of your opponent's" right? :p

I thought of that, but no, that's not grimdark enough for the Guard. By the time they've gotten the next wave organized, the other side has rebuilt too. It's just the Guard can keep coming and coming and coming and they only have to win once.

There is no problem that can't be solved by burying it in Guardsmen: All Imperial Guard units except Ogryns have 0 attacks. However, if at any point an enemy infantry unit charges a Guardsmen unit, you may remove twenty-five times as many Guardsman models from the table in order to immediately remove the charging unit from the table as well. Replace the charging unit with a suitable piece of area terrain for the rest of the battle. This is difficult terrain.

If you are a DKoK or Valhallan player, you may do this when you charge with a unit as well.

Imperial Guard- Fire for effect!
After ranging in the first shot of the barrage, the master of ordnance shouts fire for effect into the vox and the whole battery joins in on the fire mission.

When firing a Master of Ordnance's special attack, after resolving where the template lands you may immediately scatter another 5D6 S9 AP3 large blasts off that one. Mark the spot where the original template hit with a coin or other suitable marker, you may continue to fire the Master of Ordnance's barrage attack there without scattering as the battery is already ranged in there.

All Blood Angels jump pack equipped units may charge from deep strike. If electing to charge they may not fire.

Death Company equipped with chainswords are rending.

Ultramarines: Favorites of Ward: Any independent character reduced to 1 Wound immediately gains Plot Amour. Plot Armour grants a 1+ Invulnerable save.

Looted Dakka (Deff Skull klan trait):
If any ork model is in base to base contact with a wrecked vehicle (from either side), the ork model may forgo its standard shooting attack and instead pick the largest (as modeled) weapon from the wrecked vehicle to use instead. This includes cannons, missile launchers, rail guns, the Orks really don't mind. If the largest weapon is not ranged (dreadnought ccw, deffrolla, etc), it gains the following profile: thrown junk: 12", Str 4, AP 6.

The also somehow take up no space whatsoever

Land Raiders can also ride in Lazorbacks.

Lazorback? Is this another C.S. Goto creation I missed?

Crassus armoured assault vehicles may fit an entire guard regiment in them and 5 other crassus armoured assault vehicles.....
