I was half way through a 1250 point battle against a friends O.K army when one of the funniest things i have ever seen while playing happend. He had a block of 6 Ogres with a brusier so a total of 7 models which was lined up perfectly with a group of 12 skink skirmishers. The turn before he took out 7 of my skinks with lead belchers (damn those things are good) and i had taken out one of his ogres with my priest (woot chain lightning) and gave another ogre 2 out of 3 wounds. Then on the next turn he chose to ogre charge me. I chose to stand an shoot them. The dice gods were with me my friends, not only did I get the wound needed to kill the second ogre to force a panic test. Not ony did they fail the panic test but they ended up running right through his unit of mournfangs that were trying to cross behind the ogres. After i had realized what had just happend: 5 Ogres ran from 5 skinks I couldnt stop laughing. My friend obviously didn't share the same view as i did because after he rallied his troops he turned around and stomped me by 300 points. clear case of winning the battle but losing the war, but it kept me chuckling for almost a full week now
Nice. Last Sunday I had a giant Horde unit of Dwarf Warriors, with Thane BSB I might add, flee off the table edge after my Salamanders did 3 wounds to the unit. Was pretty epic, made me laugh, my opponent not so much. I think the humor of it comes in the visualization of the pure absurdity of it.
the Visual was great 5 ogres and 2 mournfangs running from not even a full unit of skinks, its almost like a mouse scaring an elephant (I imagine it would be better though, with skinks being able to shout obsenities and all) the unit was one wound away from running its self, (i have yet to roll snake eyes when a unit is down to a quater of its size). The difference in model size was great as well, an ogre is almost 2.5 skinks tall
I had a battle yesterday vs ogres. I rear charged his ironblaster with 3 terradons. I caused no wounds, he did the same with his attacks and I won combat by 3 (+2 rear, +1 charge)! He failed the break test which I thought was hilarious. I was merely hoping to hold him up for a turn
