Never been angry. Been disappointed, once by my own actions, and another from a friend who was a poor loser.

Thankfully never had an opponent get angry either.

Some of you have some, errr, interesting experiences.

Pfft. Low strength tends to fail to wound.

I got a load of orks just before the codex hit. Played a tau guy for the orks first fight. Got wiped out without even a single kill. This guy was a power gamer . No mercy. List tailoring every match. I had enough that day and packed up my toys and went home. Never played him again.

I changed it yesterday, had the old one for a while, thought i would change up the puicture and title to my newest army.

Thankfully it was low strength cause it was a CSM land raider so I am pretty sure with all those spikes its AP6.

Thats a case where if you have a few armies you talk about this interesting Space Marine list you want to run and spam orks after he has already made the list.

Those were my early days of learning too so I learned how to be a better gamer by comparing myself to what I didn't want to be like.

No fliers? I'll leave mine on the shelf.

Playing fluffy? Me too then.

That is a good thing to take away from a bad experience. I still like my method of messing with opponents who tailor lists. since I have 4 different armies it's hard to tell what I am bringing, and I have enough ravenwing and deathwing to field pure armies of either so it is almost like having another 2 armies.

I ducked, my friend's expensive oak panelled (and rented) games room wall didn't fare so well...

For me, I can't really recall any game related instances of getting angry, I'm in it for the LOLs, don't really get invested enough to care enough to get angry (break one of my models? Different story!)

There was one instance where I guy more than implied I was cheating by shuffling and dealing psychic power cards rather than rolling. After making my displeasure clear in no uncertain terms (aside from anything else, I was offended that he felt a friendly club PUG was important enough to cheat over!) I proceeded to stomp him (might have been a tabling, don't really recall) without casting a single psychic power.

I probably have anger issues...but lets go

1. Playing my new necron army vs a mechanized flyer bs army, in a tournament. Turn 2 he gets in range for my warriors, and arks to start gauss blasting after seeing my rolls he calls the organizer over and complains that my army wasnt painted. (Drybrushed red with gold joints ironman ironmen) guy wouldnt listen, told me to bring back a painted army and disqualified me, turns out he was best friends with my opponent, and it was the first time I ever got pissed, slammed the table and. Packed up.

2. Playing my freshly painted more detailed necron army vs imperial guard, friendly game, using best 2 out of 3. Lost first game, won the second, third game he packs up and fields an ork army and told me to chill when i called bs, called me a baby when I lost and refused to play him again

3. Not proud of this one...played an ork army vs daemons, 7th edition so he was using pink horror factory spam
Anyway turn 1 he summons a lot, and giggles, straight up, fething giggles that he had to go grab some more, 20ish year old 300lb man giggling at me. I ignore it, do some drive by shooting from trukks and next turn it happens again, summons a megaton of horrors, giggles up a storm, says "oops im sorry, giggle giggle hope you can win giggle" 1k turns into 2k, round 3 i nearly kill his hq for win, uses its spell to replace it with another fateweaver, full wounds I call bs, organizer allows it. Gigglefest 3.0. Losing patience tell him to hurry up etc. He glares at me and refuses to attack me for 2 more turns, telling me to hurry up and try winning. Match tine runs out, i lose due to having most casualties under starting points, he goes to shake my hand and giggles then pulls his hand back and says "oh well play better next time"


Slugged him in the gut and left, never went back to that store after that

4. Worst one proud of this one.
Got into a fight over dark angel rulings and deathwing deepstrike. Judge sided with me and my opponent spent the rest of the match rolling his dice so they would hit my models, he used casino dice and they chipped the crap out of my terminators. Finally lost my temper when he rolled one and knocked my azreal off the table, breaking the banner. He laughed when I asked if it was funny, then flipped the table over and told him to laugh at that. Went outside to cool off, store owner came out, told me to chill and that he watched everything.

First time seeing a player cry, made me feel bad for the billion tyranid models that broke but I was gonna have to repaint all my models so it passed

Yeah I dont play much anymore, I get mad too much

Holy crap. Yeah. That's extreme man.

I had a guy do the giggle thing at Ard Boyz. I was udsing the OLD Grey KNight codex and had never actually played Grey KNights before. it was JUST as annoying to hear him say crap like "man youre brave for Taking those" as he unloads his 5th Edition Blood Angels out. Yeah.

For those who dont know, Daemon Hunters werent the shizl at this point in 40K. And uh... 5th Edition Blood Angels at 2500 is just flat broke.

Anyways I know what you're talking about when you described this guy that kept giggling. I didnt PUNCH someone like you, but it wasnt because I didnt want to.

By the way he had a single scout, a Damaged Baal Predator and his immobilized Razorback left out of the 2500 points he brought. I trucked his ass.

I found a REALLY fun way of messing with a list tailorer is to do this....
Step 1- Take the lit you are using out and lay it face down on a table. Let the guy know thats your listdoes he mind if you go ahead and set stuff out. Be sure to imply its what your using without actually saying it.
Step 2- set models up on the table (on top of the list your using to prevent him from picking the paper up and looking at itMake sure the models your using are the exact opposite of what your ctually going to use and unit them up like your preparing them for battle.
Step 3- when he is done building his army start placing the odels you actually plan to use on the table to play and then put the decoy models away. When he complains, tell him you laid the paper out with your list and told him so you changed nothing and you were only getting those other models out so you could get what you were using out from under them. Why, did he tailor his list according to what you set out or something? Of course, he wouldnt do that. Only TFG would do such a thing, lets get started with the game.
Edit: Almost forgot...
Step 4- watch and see how angry he gets at being hoist on his own petard.

Sounds like you've been provoked every time. Don't see any rage issues here, though. However, it's preferable to warn people first. Let them know they are actually annoying you. Sometimes, people just don't realise it. And if they proceed acting the same way - no bad in punching them.

Behind you

For me tau player who apparently didn't know you had to pay points for upgrades from lists, of course at my club we only have time for 600pt games.
he was taking a 1400pt list roughly none knew as none played tau, he's at the top of the table we keep and goes round saying he is the best player.
When I find out after starting tau my self I banned him from the club and wont speak to him.

Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?





UK

The only time I've been really irritated during a game was when we set up a multiplayer apoc game at the club after we'd all played a 1k point match. We tried to go for an even split of age, experience and skill on each side to keep things fair, but the group of kids insisted they all stick together. I had no real issue with this, as it was all for fun and I got on better with the guys my side anyway. We agreed 2.5-3k per player, and got to building lists.

Things only really got annoying when we got to deploynent. One kid on the other side went to set up, and anyone who knew the SM codex well enough could see at a glance that he was easily a good 1k points over the limit. I asked him if he could drop to the level we had all agreed. While he cut some stuff, I could tell he was still about 500 over, but at that point I just wanted to get on with the game.

He leaves 4 Tactical Squads aside when we deploy, and I ask what he was doing with them, as he had no transports or pods and wasn't reserving them. His answer:
"Sicarius lets them Infiltrate."
I point out that only applies to one squad.
"Yes, but I have 4 of him in my army. But it's OK, they've all got different names!"

Eventually he just sets them up as normal and relegates 3/4 Sicariuses to captains. Throughout the game, which was actually decent in terms of gameplay, he's hardly ever off his phone sending constant texts (and reading each aloud to his friends) and generally ruined the game for those of us who all knew that we could have played several smaller games in the time he wasted that afternoon.

What did I do? Gritted my teeth, got on with it and hoped he would eventually grow up. At the next month's session, I also tabled his Crons in 4 turns, but that was largely coincidence!

Dylan clearly made the 2D6" charge range, had a higher initiative, and weight of attacks.

It was a very legal assault, and Dylan won.

Years ago, when I was only a freshman in high school, I learned how to play Magic: the gathering. It was a simpler time, full of happiness and not lugging buckets of dice around. But one day everything changed, when the fire nation Att...Nope so anyway, come spring and a new kid shows up, his name was sam, and this is the chronicles of sam

Year the 1st: the butthurtedness begins

Sam was a poor player, not in money which he poured into ancient cards from a time unremembered, but he hated to lose. Unfortunately he hated that I could beat him with my cheap $30 goblin deck, and created a red protection burn deck. Unfortunately he used mountains and I won. He threw his cards in the garbage and left...I looted cards from the garbage and went on my way. Months were spent, winning losing laughing enjoying my youth...and sam, bitter young sam stood in the shadows, watching, waiting....in line for lunch.

One day he comes up to me for a match, showing extreme assholeism and declaring an ante, putting up deck cards as prizes to the winner....I agreed, he picked my goblin king. I picked lightning bolt, like a game of chess vs midaev he cheated time and time again, marking cards, changing life counter, lyinng about the damage. Through it all I persevered, unfortunately, his final gambit was to cheat when I turned to a friend, tapping my voracious dragon, i lost an attack...and he won. He chose to rip his new goblin king in half and throw it away, laughing, he left for the summer....

Year 2: return of the sam
He returned as we expected, months of begging for a game, cheating, pulling obscure rules, and outdated cards, with his annoying voice, rudeness, and assholism I retuned my decks, and created Samageddon the unholy deck...a grixis deck, with nothing but 5+ mana cost cards, and mostly 7 costs, his old playstyle couldnt handle it, no targets to attack, no power to finish me off, and 7 cards in hand every turn with red blue and black mana available. He broke from the pressure, attacking recklessly, trying to finish me....he lost, cheating. Lying, and screaming at me in fury...he left that day for a few months, rumors that he had dropped out circulated, but he came back, with new cards Like me...jund, the unholy union of....wait red mana? He forgot about my goblins, which drove him mad, telling me to ban old cards from the club, rage fueling my laughter, he had lost, cheating ,lying, rules lawyering, stacking decks, stacking mana, bringing cheating dice, stacked to give him 6's.
The year ended silently...too silently

Year 3: the eruption of sam
Local hobby shop opened, close to school, off campus period spent there happily,becoming friends with the owners.
One day, a dark presence, it...by that I mean SAM had arrived. Asking for a match against me I refused, stating my reasons as him being a cheater poor sport, and a general ass. The owner played against sam, agreed to his anye, and promptly blew him away with his time warp infinite fireball deck...too much for sam he left..and swore to return...and return he did a month later with a new deck, in a golden case, with autographed cards, and roughly $1000 in cards. After promtly beating the manager, employees and 3 good players, he got to me, he dared me to use goblins and I did, after watching him play howling mines, twice, and laying blue mana I understood his deck, 120 cards, blue and miling me from the start....unfortunately he was an idiot because goblins are cheap, need little mana and I knew how to beat a mil deck quickly...poor guy called me a poor sport after i beat him, then left after the owner showed up

Year 4: the sam hits the fan
Sam bought many cards on tab from the shop, all from different store employees with different names, they caught on and hit him with $600 bill, he reluctantly paid, and the store started watching him...2011, the year of infamy...magic grew less popular, wowtcg grew, other games grew, star wars, d&d, pathfinder......warhammer.....40k

It started. Like any other day, I entered the store with my little starter force of tau, hoping to learn how to play....the sam was there...waiting for me with his imperial guard mega horde asking to battle. I stood valiantly against the conscripts, my puny shots barely stopping him from bringing in another wave...stomping me into the dirt, fire warriors defending the jump units, drones, blocking their access to the crisis suit, my hq and elites jumped around, waiting for my kroot to reach range...desperately buying time, sacrificing my stealth suits, my lone crisis commander stood alone, backed by a paltry 20 kroot...i conceded and allowed him to laugh at me, really laugh at how bad I played, told me to stop trying, etc etc. Month later the shop closed its doors and moved...but even now you can call a bad player, an donkey-cave, poor sport rules lawyer in any group a SAM..and it is the worst insult you can give in our groups..

Not an epic rage story here, but my single most "defeated" moment was my very first game with the new GK codex.

I ran Nemesis Strike Force and had the majority of my 1850pt list trying to come in via Deep Strike on turn 1.

The very first thing that happened was BOTH of my Dreadknights mishapping in the most unlikely ridiculous ways (while given very safe positions to drop in), and then BOTH of them rolling instantly destroyed on the mishap table.

Yeah... that wasn't fun.

Sam and the blind draft shenanigans

One day I entered the hobby shop prepared for the new set blind draft, happy and naive I signed up, rolled my position and started playing, a dark mist lingered, but I ignored it. Several lucky picks by me, gave me a really good bant deck, exalted theme paved the way to victory, vigilance keeping watch..the dark feeling grew stronger with time, and in the shop finals I met my opponent. The monster smiled at me, his vile tentacles reaching for my hands to restrain me from...oh wait, his hand held out, and we shook for a good match. It started like any other match, except surrounded by every other player watching us play. Loudly talking about our cards before getting kicked out, finally silent we played, his naya deck growing more powerful by the turn, a suprise planeswalker threw me off, but not for long, boom, rafiq, the crowd oohs and aahs but alas, I am exiled, oblivioned, time and time again, backed into a corner I am left with a final solution, desperate counterspelling, left, right stacking, I counter his monsters, his planeswalker shredding my hp, getting closer to pop..I play a paladin, desperate defenders, and sam keeps coming, playing more creatures, another mythic beasty..,.wait, another one? My eyes pop into focus for the first time, he taps to attack and I stand, confident in my accusation, I point at him, and say, "your cheating".......dead silence

His eyes pop out, everyone too shocked to move, the store owner judge asks how I know, for certain, I start recounting his deck, his rares, too many, his commoms, playsets of them, and the final straw, 3 godsires, in one game, I ordered a count of his deck, 22 cards over what any player should have, he is told to explain himself, his tablemates, remember him in his bags, grabbing stuff, and he admits to maybe bringing cards with him...he is banned from the store for 2 weeks, and told that it was his first strike.

Sam and the missing pants (d&d)

New group in d&d, friends only run by super veteran dm who takes no bs...sam arrives and asks to join, ignoring my protests he agrees to add him as a fighter. Right away sam asks to be leader, we roll off and he wins, our first quest choice is to kill goblins, he denies, the second is to gather ore from a mountain also denied, our final choice is to investigate rumors of cult activity in a remote town in the mountains, he accepts and we begin a 2 week ride out there, a few boring montage scenes of us killing stuff, lifting weights, eating raw eggs and getting bulked up goes by and we all level up a few times...except sam, who failed attack rolls, failed to get into combat, and only helped when we were about to die...he was level 2 and somehow decked out in full plate, and holding a mithril sword...sensing all was not right. I asked to see our gold stash while in town to purchase more vials for poisons and potions. I was met with weird looks from dm, and sam handing me 20g calling it my allowance. I was suspicious...very suspicous. So began the rogues revenge, starting after hours at camp...i pull the dm aside and tell him i wish to steal sams pants, his plate ones. After rolling A perfect 20 i put my new pants on and fall asleep, dm scrubs full plate, and turns it into half plate, for both of us. Sam is not amused out of character. We awaken and he accuses me of stealing his armor, i use a bluff check and passed telling him i bought it....sam is angry.
So began the life nigel shinypants half plate rogue each time sam bought armor, i stole the pants, always reducing his ac and pissing him off, finally one week his character attacks me, and after passing easy checks I use my first move to throw liquid fire in his face and laughed as he died

Sam never played d&d again

I've never got very angry in a 40k game and done anything.

But I have had an opponent smash half his nicely painted army as he was putting it away after some bad luck on turn 1, before leaving the store. Thankfully he didn't get any of my models.

Didn't happen to me but guy I know. Just starts 40k not confident on painting skills yet so buys commission painted bloodthirster for nearly $200 (this was 3rd edition at the time). First game with it is tournament puts on table then meeting on tournie rules. Small kid comes in saws ooh what is that picks it up then drops it, shattering it on the ground. He got it in mail day prior, kids mother sees and shoos him out store, guy shaking with rage but nothing he can do, never got to use it and can't even see bits without growing furious.

I don't think I've been mad or angry because of the game, but more about people's actions I guess.

Was playing a 4 player 1500 point match with my three oldest friends, Orks and Demons vs Space Marines and Imperial Guard (me). We've all had some beers, gone to the bar for a break, and come back to resume drinking. We're all pretty social drinkers and have limits installed in our heads for when it's time to stop drinking beer and change to soda/water - save one friend of mine, my partner.

Game starts off well, we're holding the line blasting Orks apart while the Demon player goes for a more defensive/reserve heavy route with summoning. We basically murder the Ork player with little to no effort (his dice were terrible and my Wyverns were hungry :() but when the Demon player finally starts getting units on the board he goes absolutely apeshit with summoning. I mean this guy rolls well most of the time but this time it was silly good, I don't think he failed one test - and we had no psykers so...yeah.

Turn three I'm swarmed trying to deal with multiple FMC's that have appeared along with units of demons showing up all over my line. My partner has been steady drinking beer after beer this entire time and is starting to slur his words and the beginnings of whining start to show up. Eventually turn 4 is coming to a close and I'm trying to deal with the rest of the Orks, the Demons who I can't seem to recover from, and a flank that's now barren of support because my partner drunkenly charged his entire army into the middle of the fray and got annihilated.

So now he starts bitching about how unfair summoning lists are and how we can't win and how that the guy playing the Demons is playing cheese, yadda yadda yadda. Truthfully, I couldn't believe how well the Demon player was doing, he didn't even take a heavy summoning list - his dice rolls were just insane, one of those games I guess. And we're trying to politely ask our drunken friend to stop talking and just finish the round and he's just getting louder. So, I lose it, snapping at him to shut the feth up and stop complaining and if he didn't want to play anymore then to go do something else. That triggers a chain reaction for the other two players who basically say the same thing.

He still doesn't get it.

Basically the worst game of 40k I've ever played, with people that I would walk through fire for if asked. I was ashamed at my lack of patience but honestly, I couldn't take it anymore.

Angry? A few times.
The worst scenario was against this young "just started 40K" kiddo, who played with Tau, with some marine allies.

I remember him repeating constantly:
"No, you won't get any cover saves from that..."

...And he told me I'm obsessive, when I tried to correct him that units arriving in Drop Pods can NOT assault at the same turn they arrived in.

That day, I lost my cool, when I tried to clarify the rules for him, while he was being a prick, and a terrible sport in the table. His actions smelled slightly WAAC-ish anyway...

Good thing I'll never play with him ever again.

Yesterday.
My last game this year, bringing my Deathwing against some quickly-build CSM List.
Was a good friend of mine, so I didn't mind him changing the list a bit right before deployment. Or proxying 3 Chaos Bikers with meltas with 3 Stugs from FoW.
Things got serious though when my Land Raider nearly got killed in 1st turn (I went second).
I was a bit mad when my Drop Pod Ven Dread didn't manage to melta hit his Vindicator due to smoke and then promptly got chargedestroyed by his demon prince, doing nothing.
Well, at least he took out 50% of my termies in his 2nd turn shooting and me rolling 1's. And Belial with 3 other Terminators TH/SS managed to do exactly nothing to the Defiler in 3 turns of combat.
At least my brand new Fire Raptor saved the day, no? Nope, decided to come in Turn 3 and killed a total of 3 Cultists and a single noise marine before being multi meltaed to death from 3 Obliterators which also destroyed my Land raider. In melee.
The 3 cultists that killed the last remaining Terminator with Overwatch was bonkers though.
I was nearly tabled at the end of turn 4 and maybe had removed a total of 800 points from his rag-shack list.

Then TFG couldn't help telling my friend to bring some tissues the next time to dry my tears. At that stage I was so fething pissed I was about to go full Khorne on his ass.
