Funny stuff that happens during games, while painting or modelling, or any other amusing interactions with game buddies goes in here. So I can make comics out of them.

This happened during a 2nd edition game but me and my friends still giggle over it. During an imperial / nid battle a perticular carnifax had munched it's way through most of the attacking marine battle line and was now working it's way through the sisters that ran at it. Guided by my ever lucky friend, they moved straight for this threat. Her cannoness charge the carnifax but did not have the strength to wound it, I don't know if it was because of the size difference meaning he couldn't reach but the carnifax could not hit her. The combat was a draw with no hits for the carnifax and no wounding rolls for the cannoness. We decieded that this duel was too much of a last stand too end, (just about all of the rest of the army was dead by this point) and so all players argeed to play to TA. It went on for 16 rounds of combat before the carnifax got bored and walked off. But the best bit was that by disengaging it meant we had a model in the deployment zone and so won!!!!

Horrah for sisters!!!!!

I was using an all Stormtrooper IG list and fighting Marines. I managed to kill all of them by turn three without taking a single casualty. It was beautiful. In a later game, one of my Stormtrooper sergeants (powerweapon, that's it) got into HTH with a Terminator Force Commander with Power Weapon and Stormbolter... and won. Killed him, and the rest of the squad, stone dead. This was in a tournament, too.

Recently we made a 4-players team battle. It was the cult of Machine (marine & Necrons) vs the Genestealer Cult (Seeding Swarm and all-troop IG) and the Carnifex had just finished munching the chaplain and the deceiver hid himself all game instead of comming and slay the Carnifex!
So his ally said at the end of the game : Well now i know why he's the deceiver he's disapointing! (disapointing in french is said dÈcevant, hence the pun)

I am loath to admit this but i was playing a quick pick up game of my friends black legion versus my eldar. well I had forgotten my phoenix lord(can't remember which one it was five years ago) in my dorm room. Since it was an important character to my strategim, I need it. well I thought it not kosher to proxy my dark eldar archon. So I asked my other buddy for his SMURF KEYCHAIN. YES THATS RIGHT HIS SMURF KEYCHAIN. Well my papa smurf phoenix lord ended up in hand to hand with a unit of berzerkers, and HE WON. Due to lots of horrible rolls my smurf slaughtered them. Who was the servant of khorne that day...thats right Papa Smurf. He wears red clothes, coincedence or a sign from the blood god.

and then there was that time that I played mordhiem with proxied eldar

What about things that happen in a game that are really gross? Specifically, a person I played who had the worst odor ever. I could smell him across the table at a tournament, I eventually conceded because I couldn't take it anymore. He looked like a ragged old santa claus in a hawaiian shirt.

in one game using Dark Angels against necrons i took a land speeder for a quick zip up, annihilate and die. well it quickly lost all its weapons but didn't die so i jsut sat the useless thing above my enemies massive mob of warriors and his lord. a few turns later none of my marines were in range (all out of range plonking down some nice plasma on them) the genius necron lord decided to take a swing at the landspeeder, hit it penetrated... and it blew up! wounding the lord and killing 3 necrons. we all had a good alugh at him for that.

My friend, who plays Grey Knights, and I (Worldeaters, if you couldn't tell from my sig) decided to play a siege scenario. He had a castle to defend, and a few squads of guys. He also had 2 Landraiders and 1 LR Crusader. The rules allowed my squads to take either a siege ramp or ladders. Ladders were personal wargear. Siege Ramps were like vehicles. They cost points, of course. I also had the option of battering rams for the door, but I chose to ignore that, given that the rules were funky (had to hit it six times in a single turn; AR 10).

I had to end the game in control, meaning at least one squad with over 50% strength inside the fortress. If I didn't, but succeeded in getting rid of his squads, we drew. If he held me off, of course, he won.

He had the option, of course, of letting his tanks out... but the gates were operated by a squad. So he lets all his tanks out, and we start shooting (Khorne was generous enough to bless the Worldeaters with the awesome might of a Defiler). I push towards the walls, and get a siege ramp or two over each side. I wiped out his guys within a few turns (we play to 6), and suddenly, I was in control of the base. The most hilarious thing happened. He had to try to shoot his way back into his own base with his Landraiders! I thought he'd be able to do it, but he kept missing with his Heavy Bolters and Lascannons (the Crusader could've done it easily, but it sort of crashed into a Bloodthirster). He had an orbital strike focused on his own gate since the beginning of the game. It only counted as one hit on the door! Heh. He scattered it onto one of my squads though, and wiped most of it out... so I only had one full-strength squad inside there for the last two turns. That was scary. He didn't manage to shoot his way in, or scatter onto that squad though, so I won by locking him out of his own fort. Heh.

This still embarasses him, to this day. I could see Kren and Frep in a situation like that, too. Heh. "Vile Chaos scum! We bring divine justice to thee!" "Uh, Kren... where are they?" *look back at the walls* *see the Berzerkers displaying the decapitated heads of their comrades* "Frag it..."

I had a humiliating defeat, hi by the way im new, anyways I was playing 1850 Blood Angels vs Tau, my Honor guard was making its way across the battlefield with their jump packs, the Tau shot them up and ended up fragging the standard bearer, anywho they finally got into assault range, and did so. About half the firewarrior squad got wiped out in the assault but then they hit back and managed to KILL THE ENTIRE HONOR GUARD! twas my most embarrisiing defeat ever.

I once observed a game in which a player with a Warhound Titan (oh, what a model...) was trying to blast a hull-down Defiler. He first got a glancing hit and blew up the Battle Cannon. A nearby Chaos Techpriest thing (whatever it's called) then repaired it. The next turn the same thing happened, and again on the next. By now, the Warhound owner was getting rather upset, seeing as his very expensive model couldn't take out a cheap little Defiler. Next turn, he destroyed it, to his great pleasure. He started smiling and laughing, just before the Techpriest brought the vehicle back to life. The funniest thing was the Warhound owner's reaction to this. He got upset, and started sort of jump/stomping around the room, absolutely furious. He destroyed it for good the next turn, but it took him 2/3rds of a game, and I will never forget the funny bunny-hop thing he did...

FUnniest thing I ever had happen was my 50 (120 with gear) point Tau commander stood toe to toe with a 500+ point chaos lord and managed to actually wound him twice before he was finally persuded to leave the field by 8 bloodletters that had to come save their general.

The first time I played my Friend's Dark Eldar with my Tau, we rolled the night mission. My vehicles and crisis suits had the black sun filters (for just such an occasion), and he like, didn't roll above 3 on two die for his spotting the entire game. It was the Dark Eldar who couldn't see in the dark, being slaughtered by Tau with their nifty nite-vision techno-toys.

I've also had games where I think I've used every little piece of Tau wargear possible, driving my friend crazy:
"My Lascannon hits!" (No, it doesn't, I've got disruption pods, and you're more than 42' away)

"I just immobilized the skimmer, it crashes!" (No, re-roll that. I have decoy launchers that force a reroll on glancing immobilizations. Of course, he rolls 'shaken')

"I get 20 attacks 10 base, and 10 for charging" (No, the firewarriors have photon grenades, you don't get the charge bonus attacks)

"I hit the Ethereal!" (Nope, the shield drone takes the first hit)

"How did you move 12" and fire?" (I have multitrackers on the tanks)

"I thought the BS was 3" (I added a targetting array to the Devilfish; it ups the BS to 4)

"The Kroot have HOW MANY attacks???"

And so on and so forth.

I was playing my guard against some black templars. A full squad of templars was moving up on my lines, and in a desperate attempt to stall them before they hit my main firing line, my armored fist squad (with no special hth wargear) rolled up and assaulted them! (this was back when you could assault out of a moving vehicle). Not only did they stall them, they completely wiped them out. The armored fist squad was then assaulted by the templars command squad with the emporer's champion... The armored fist squad was able to wipe them out as well!

There were promotions and medals all around for the armored fist squad.

At a tournament once I assault terminators with a chaplain, using my blood angels chaplain and death company with 3 power weapons. Despite a butt load of attacks, I only manage to cause one wound with a chainsword. Sufficed to say, I was powerfisted halfway into next week. Although I did score the "numb dice" award. My one and only award ever recieved in a tournament. I proudly display it at every tournament I play in now..... Whhaaaattt?
