awesome moments

[shan vener]

hey guys i'm just coming back from an extended leave of absence of 40k and I was wondering what are the epic moments of your blood angels, angels sanguine, flesh tearers or the like. any unit is accepted but they need to use this codex. so what were your awesome moments?

 

here's one of mine.

10 man death company, 8 powerswords, 2 hand flamers, lamartes, all with jump packs. (uber expensive)

in a 2000 point game against chaos marines they were shot at by...

 

8 chaos bolters (rapid fire)

1 plasma gun

1 bolt pistol

9 thousand son bolters (rapid fire)

1 thousand son bolt pistol

twin linked auto cannon from a chaos dread

twin linked auto cannon from a fire frenzy chaos dread

twin linked bolter from a chaos rhino

 

all that inflicted 1 wound, which went to lemartes, who killed 3/4 his army

awesome

Had an assault squad assaulted by a 10 man squad of Khorne Bezerkers which inflicted 27 wounds. I then allocated wounds and rolled 27 saves :devil: my mate or me couldnt believe it!

[Brother-Captain Lucius]

when playing one of my guard friends one of my RAS with libby and priest were all bunched up after DoA and took 405-40 wounds from flamers + lasguns saved all but one which i then saved from FnP. From that point on people have thought i have loaded dice :devil:

Waaaaaaay back in 2nd Ed, I played my cousin. He usually favoured his Black Legion but after some smack talk he decided it was time to pull his 'undefeated' wolves army out. He had been saying for a loooong time he would wipe the floor with me with his wolves army and how hard Ragnar was (to be fair wolves in 2nd ed were rediculous! They toned down the other marine codexes after realising everyone playing marines would find it easy).

 

When the armies are close enough for charges, He uses Ragnars wolf howl ability and charges Dante and his Honour guard, only to have his own Wolf Lord and his retinue to be totally wiped out in 1 round of combat.

 

He didn't run his mouth much after that incident. His wolves were then neatly mopped up by my rediculous Death Company.

Last week my squad of 5 lightning claw assault termies, termie chaplain and sanguinary priest charged out of my crusader into 10 terminators and ruined them. Got assaulted by 70 Khorn bezerkers and turned around and killed them. In the same battle my Mephiston took Abaddon down to 1 wound, he rolled a 1 and failed his invun killing himself.. :P

[Looted Monolith]

In apocalypse I pulled the spartan move and stood with a complete squad of Assault terminators with libbrarian and Sanguinary priest attached against massive green tide 200+ orks and ghazghul leading them fought/tied them up for the entire apoc game mashing them for 4 complete rounds lost librarin and 4 terminators.

 

They will know that few stood against many...Besides these shengaurds make it very difficult to kneel in. :)

[igotsmeakabob!!]

Most of my new 'awesome' moments involve my Furioso Librarian.

 

Nothing lights up my imagination like him Winging in and smashing up some Terminators, taking no hits in return, and wiping out the squad.

[Jorre]

One of my most awsome moments would be. A game of kill team vs nids. My last surviving stern guard with heavy bolter got charged by 3 hormigaunts and a genestealer. Luckily the brood lord was just out of range on the assault move. Any how my single marine managed to survive 8 armour saves luckily no rending attacks! He then swung his massive heavy bolter like a warhammer and pulverized a single hormiguant! Guess what that means! I won combat by 1!! All his models would now be taking fearless wounds unless they passed armor saves! The bugs proceeded to fail them all and the whole lot are wiped out. In my following turn this heroic marine filled the broodlord full of shrapnel causing his remaing force to loose synapse right before he failed his leadership test and lost the game

in a 1250 game mephiston killed around 850 points of the enemy and only took a single wound from a dangerous terrain test lol.

God that was a bit cruel taking mephy in that size game? But then again i did take him in a 1000pts game but i was facing a monolith and had nothing else to kind of counter it!

[Ebsolom]

#1 Mephiston is sent to bolster one of my flanks which is under serious assault from Chaos. In the ensuing combats he manages to wipe out 2 Obliterators, A Demon Prince, Huron Blackheart and 8 Khorne Berserkers single handed ;) . Best showing for me so far!

 

#2 Different game, DC Dread with Blood Talons manages to assault a full 10 man Plague Marine squad... wipes them out before they could take a swing.

[nicolo]

Furioso with blood claws drop pods in first turn and flames/melta/magna's a group of orks killing 9, causing them to flee and run off the board, next turn my opponent charges the furioso with 20 orks, one with a claw, and two killa kans, blood claws go to town and kills everything, including kans. everyone in the store stopped to watch and declared the blood claw extra attack roll broken.

[TheMouth]

Assault squad...5 man, Vet has power weapon and melta bombs, specialist has flamer...charged by dreadnought. Dread kills NO ONE. Vet takes melta bomb and shoves it in the dreadnoughts face while giving him the finger. Promptly not only manages to make it hit, but pens, and then promptly blows it up. Assault squad moves on and takes out a tac squad and claim objective.

 

awesome.

 

 

needless to say, shots and cigars where passed around that night.

[Glendor]

this was awesome for me, after about 3 turns of shooting from 2 meltagun greyhunters into a landspeedeer and failing they are finally all alone without any squad mates. My oponent rolls 2pens 2 explosions and they both die in the explosion. I guess it was funnier than awesome.

[Korloth Darkwolf]

It's not spectacularly awesome but I had a DC dread take out 20 Boyz and Nob, 20 Shoota Boyz and Nob, a DeffKopta, a Wartrukk, a Pain Boy, a mob of Nobs with Power Klaws and Thraka on its own in a single game.

I would definitely call that awesome enough for the awesome thread

[Demoulius]

back in 4th i had this game against a nid buddy of mine. at the end of the game all i had was my PF scouts sargeant and 2 or 3 scouts against 3 of his warriors and a few gaunts. i shot and charged the gaunts, killing them only to be charged by the warriors (2 with claws).

 

in their first charge they take out my 2 vanilla scouts and my PF takes off a wound. after 3 combat phases he finally kills the last one and hes only the only MODEL left on the board :)

 

yea, needless to say thats been my favorite sargeant for a LOOOOONNNNNG while ;)

[death_incarnite]

once i was taking on a admittadebly noobish player but it was my 1600 vs his 3000pt ork boyz army and first turn libby dropped from a pod with 8 stern guard and a sang preist all w combi meltas and took out 2 looted wagons w big guns and a battle wagon and in the whole game i only took two casualties... ARMY OF FEEL NO PAIN IS AWSOME... also running like cowards and staying out of combat lol

[30-Death-Company+Astorath]

This wasnt me but i was watching my friend 2 days ago play BA vs. Guard. First turn drop pod with DC dreddeh with blood talons and destroys 2 Leman Russes. Great thing is the destroyed tanks were great cover for the dreadnought. The Guard player looked like he :cuss himself :D

[Code 187]

Mephiston featured in a 5k game I played against UM/Tau. 3 squads of fire warriors and a few Tac marines shot at him for 2 turns and didn't cause a single wound. Meph wiped out half of them, a barracuda, a load of Tacs and some Termies for good measure. He ended with one wound - from a failed peril of the warp test - having more than earned his points back.

[Brother Nathan]

my assault squad with chaplin and priest was charged by aunit of khorn bezerkers, took no casultys, then wiped them out and moved and charged another squad and wiped it out too. for noo loss, nice. pity i forgot to fire my vindicator...

[Brother Ariman]

2v2 Me and Shrike's Revengaurd vs. Deathwing and IG

 

Sanguinor takes down 4 squads of deathwing including Belial singlehandely, only to be defeated by the immortal terminator apothecary.

Same game Jumpackless Death Company destroy a Leman Russ, Chimera and contents, and 2 basilisks.

[SnorriSnorrison]

Sanguinary Guard, Captain with PW and Sanguinary Priest are attacked by three squads: Five Terminators plus Librarian in Termy armour, and two Tactical Squads, one of them was a 5-man combat squad.

So, my Captain strikes, and kills....one Tac dude. Greeeaaat.

Then, Libby, Tacs, Sangguard and Priest strike simultaneously - Libby misses, one Sangguard dude finishes of the Libby. :)

The Tacs do not do any damage thanks to 2+ armour and FnP, and the rest of the guard kill two Terminators and two Tacs, the Priest misses.

 

Well, that leaves him with 9 PF attacks....and I see doom crushing down like the fist of the Emperor himself...when all but one attacks miss. And that one attack fails to wound. :)

Well, with that being done, I win combat and wipe out the terminators. WIN, I say, glory and victory to the Blood Angels! :)

I recently had a Trygon Prime burrow and due to a bad scatter ended up about 15 inches from 3 assault squads, including Astorath. Between shooting and assault, the Trygon Prime is killed before he ever gets to swing. Then a Trygon appears before them. Same result. After this one squad gets assaulted by the Hive Tyrant and Tyrant Guard and nearly wiped. Astorath and his squad jump in, wipe them out, then circle the board to claim my opponent's objective. The remaining Assault squad circles over and stops his guants and Warriors from reaching my objective (wiping out most of them but I think 1 warrior survived).

 

So, I lost 1 10 man assault squad to kill 3 Monsterous Creatures, some Tyrant Guard, a large guant unit, and 2 unit of warriors and grab the objective. I think Astorath managed to get the final hit on all 3 Monsterous Creatures.

[BLACK BLΠFLY]

This week I had a lone Chaplain in FC range of my last Priest charge a Carnifex and strip the monster's last two wounds. This saved my last Marine (troop choice) who was squatting on an objective with the Priest and I won the game (Take and Hold).

 

:huh:
