librisrouge Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 ...when even when playing with other models (training game) you still make little 'pew, pew, pew' sounds when firing basic weapons. Really annoys the marine players to hear bolters that way.

bigted Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 When you play against a powergamer, who uses a top tier list with infiltrating 2+ cover saves everywhere, with your fluffy list and then beat him because he's never heard of "Fire on my target" and parks his death star of killy awesomeness with 2+ cover, 3+ armour and 5++ invulns right in front of 2 plasma vet squads and a plasma CCS . Then he thinks orders are a once per game thing so he does the exact same thing again with his other death star . He was so used to playing against Tau, Eldar and biker spam SM lists that he underestimated the good old, bog standard guard. And you should never underestimate the guard.

I love it when fluff armies win. I remember when my opponent first learned of "Gunners, kill on sight." Him: "uh i don't think you can do that dude." Me: "uh says right here I can." Him: "oh man." Loses a rhino, and a landraider in one turn.

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I've had the unpleasant experience of doing so more times than I'd care to count (practically every night at JRTC, BEAST week in basic, a couple of FTXs) I even sleep with a gun under my mattress... I've done it more than you'd think an Airman would... That's neither here nor there... I'm new to the IG life. So this Commissar guy, he walks around with his big hat, am I supposed to respect him? Cuz that hat looks stupid...
