Tell me stories about YOUR DUDES, Veeky Forums

These are all of my dudes (only one of them have actual miniatures representing them), and I have a campaign planned for each of them.

+12 Blood Angel tacticals in kill team (2 six man squads) managed to hold 2 objectives and contest a 3rd in a 4 player ffa.
Nearly wiped a Tempestus squad for one objective and fought hard against a space marine squad at the same time. Only lost 2 marines as well.

+Same marines took down a leman Russ with glances due to furious charge in a different game.

+5 man Assault squad took out a drop podded terminator rune priest and his grey hunter bodyguard when they showed up and started making a mess of an allies backfield.

I'd promote them to vanguard vets for their heroics, but then I would probably never field those heroes again.

I love smaller point games and kill team at the moment because they really feel like your dudes.

*Plan on making a gold colored termi squad I'm going to pretend are elite heroes

That's been this weekend.

My Dude is a Solitaire of Commoragh origin. He would occasionally spend some off time there incognito as a random "citizen", until he feels like wandering for another hundred years or if his cover is blown when some idiot Kabalite/Archon tries to off him without knowing what he is. He likes the anonymity, which is why he usually disguises himself whenever he visits an Eldar territory (plus the fact Eldars start shitting themselves if they know they're talking to a Solitaire.)

His buddies are an ex Dark Reaper Death Jester (original, I know) and an Exodite Shadowseer who's as technologically savvy as an Ogryn. These three would occasionally help any Eldar forces around, gang up with other troupes, or when shit really hit's the fan, show up with all three Eldar forces (under a triumvirate of Troupe Master, Archon, and Prophet/Autarch.)

And that's how I would explain the Heroes Path formation and it's autistic characters that can't join any unit.

Oh and he's been beaten to a pulp by a pack of Fenrisian Wolves once, too.

That guy got a very special paint job after that

I play Heralds of Ruin and my dude is a Plaguebringer who, through shear daemon shenanigans, is almost immortal. Guy took a full volley of fire warriors and crisis suits with one wound, then got to deep strike his eminet plaguebearer buddies right in front of the tau, and it doesn't take a genius to understand what happens when tau fight daemons in melee. In my local area my daemon has become a bit of a little celebrity due to just how hard it is to kill the SoB.

I like

My Dudes thread! I post about my Warzone: Resurrection Imperial army every time these pop up and today is no exception, so here they are, the 69th Ganymedian Battalion of Foot(Amalgamated). I'll write something about my Dark Legion later, too.

>Who are YOUR DUDES
My Dudes are the 69th Ganymedian Battalion of Foot(O'Roland's Irregulars). An amalgamated unit after the losses sustained during the Mariner Mountains campaign comprising of forces from, the 69th Ganymedian(clearly), the 44th Stormtrencher Battalion, 12th Special Forces group(Clans O'Roland, Branaghan, McNaughton), and the Broken Claw Wolfbane pack.

>What is the coolest thing they did
Prior to the Mariner Mountains campaign, the 69th were the heroes of the Battle of Barham, where the unit successfully repelled an invasion force of the Cybertronic Megacorporation who were intent on capturing and annexing several of the agrarian townships and farmlands within the region and forcing Imperial out of the foodstuff production markets for this part of Mars.

The battle of Barham began at 4:30 am, Martian standard time, on the 14th of August, 1292 Y.C and continued for almost 50 hours until its conclusion on the 16th of August at 6:30 am, 1292 Y.C. B Company had, along with the rest of the battalion, been on patrol across the region and it has just so happened that B Company had made it to Bahram in the early afternoon. Having been received by the Mayor and Militia Sergeant-at-Arms, Captain O’Roland ordered B Company to make camp and establish a perimeter around the town. It was during the change of perimeter guards that Cybertronic forces struck. An infiltration force of Mirrormen and Enhanced Machinators moved ahead of the main force quietly dispatching the guards and opening the way for the main force of Chasseurs with Exterminatuer support to launch their assault.

1/2

2/2

Unknown to B Company at the time of the engagement, the rest of the Battalion had come under similar attack to various degrees of success; support would be limited or unavailable for a time. So began a running battle over the township of Barham that would ultimately save and keep it and the surrounding region, but at heavy cost. B Company, in the attrition of the Cybertronic attack, had sustained a casualty rate of 58% including most of the Officer and NCO compliment of the company as well as significant damage of buildings on the outside of the township but thankfully light casualties among the civilian populace.

It was as the battle was approaching the dawn of the 16th of August that elements of the rest of the battalion, C and E Companies, were able to break through and reinforce the beleaguered defenders and finally break the back of the Cybertronic invasion.

Captain O’Roland was hailed as a hero for his defense by the townspeople and following the report back to command was, along with several others in the unit, listed for commendations, including a nomination for the Medal of Honour Third class. As well as setting his star to rise leading to his eventual promotion and command of the 69th years later.

And that concludes the histories of the 69th, I've been meaning to write about the Mariner Mountains campaign but I'm not sure how to spin 6 games of getting the shit beaten out of me into an interesting entry. The origins of my Dark Legion force later today, hopefully.

I mostly play Necromunda, which is a scale higher of YOUR DUDES than 40K, but to summarize some shit MY DUDES have done:

>Morgan Fairchilde, leader of the Megablock Reavers scavvie gang tanking bolter shots like a true boss thanks to his massive rolls of fat
>Charleton Heston the Scalie mutant being the scariest motherfucker in the whole necromundan underhive
>Petula Clark, wyrd mutant, doing fuck all for several games in a row then one-shotting people at extreme range with her bolt pistol in that one critical match
>Rita Tushingham, a scavvie mutant with extremely long legs grabbing all 5 loot markers then running off the board to claim victory, all in one movement phase

Some crew member of my extra heretical Rogue Trader dynasty. I've named everyone including the ship, but have yet to give everyone full backstories.

Wow, I really like that one-armed dude in the front row! I recognise the power sword arm, but what other bits did you use?

During my second ever game of 40k one of my long fangs managed to tie up Lelith in two turns of close combat and managed to even wound her before dying

As that was the last game I've played since I've been so busy with work only recently taking time to get back in the hobby by repainting my army I still don't know how big of a feat that was

That particular longfang is getting a very special veteran mark that i've yet to determine when he gets repainted because it seemed cool regardless

Looks like Tempestus Scions for some parts. That's clearly a CSM Cultist Champion in the back, but with what looks like a SW head.

He's the Captain! Pretty much a Tempestus Scion with a forge world Ravenguard Mor Deythan sergeant head.

Also he actually has both arms hahaa. I like to think his big arm as an upgrade after losing it.

Shit-fuck, that's skaven for you.

The other crew members and a better look at the Arch-militant. I actually greenstuffed his muscles to cover up the chaos markings.

Oh, I see the other hand now. Guess I'm just blind.
Might have to invest in that kit for some of my Inquisition dudes.

It's a great kit with extra goodies for building Inquisitorial Stormtroopers/Acolytes as well.

>Play horde Renegades and Heretics
>Play against all deepstriking termie list
>lasguns can't kill them

>My looted Malcador Defender rolls up
>7 Heavy Bolters and a Demo cannon open up
>All the termies die in two turns

Needless to say the crew of the "Imperium Pugna" is a staple in all my list now.
Malcador Defenders are so funny I love them.

>Play Skaven
>have two cannons
>One cannon misfires turn one, turns to face the other cannon. And fires
>S:10 large blast right over the other cannon
>Wounds, rolls 4 wounds
>exactlyenough.jpg
>fiery explosion in my back lines makes a unit of slaves and the bunker with my grey seer Panic!
>Next turn same cannon missfires and explodes itself this time

Needless to say, my warlords are very weary of the cannons now, even if the warlock engineers are instant it is okayI should mention once this same cannon misfired and shot my own screaming bell, almost sniping the grey seer on top

Unfortunately, OP, all my best stories end up being in Megamek. My tabletop games are fun, but besides stupid shit like missing 5 shots in a row with a 2D6 TN of 5+, they've been pretty straightforward.

I started with a small Guard force in 5th and had a blast doing small games for a while, wistfully wishing for an Adeptus Mechanicus army. When Skitarii and Cult Mechanicus dropped, I started buying and building. I also bought various other forces as I went along for coolness' sake. As I stand, I've got my old school Guard company, two squads of Tactical Marines (one with the 30th Anniversary model) and a Captain, two Inquisitors, each with a warband, an Execution Force, an Imperial Knight, and a decently-sized Skitarii and Cult Mechanicus army.

I eventually said "fuck it" and grabbed an Arch Magos from Horus Heresy, then said that he had a lot of people in high places who owe him favors that he calls upon to fight his battles for him.

I don't have all of the models assembled, I like what I have so far. I'm looking at getting the made-to-order Techmarine and am deeply regretting not having gotten a few made-to-order Tech-Priests while I had the chance

I'm building small IG army (infintrary heavy Kill team, doubling for necromunda gangs) that consists of mixed regiments and lightly converted chaos cultists from DV. I even ordered a Gerenchin to kitbash it with Cadian equipment. Bah, I even got some genestealer hybrids.

So, are 77th Agrentian Chaos Cultists? Genestealers? Orcs? No, but their comissar always emphasised importance of keeping proper numbers in face of constant need for blam, so the press gangs are not really picky.

I always imagine the scene when that rowdy, colourfull bunch is called out by their commander:
>Boys, Iquisition warned High Command that our forces are being infiltrated by enemy sympathizers! Have you seen any?
>Xenos, Mutants, Heretics, Gangers and few flavours of guardsmen shake their heads on "NO, SIR".
>"Good"

I also have two Mordheim warbands, that are callouts to old WHRP lore:
-no bullshit madmen Witch Hunters of the grandfader of the Witch Huter form old WHRP supplement The Restless Dead, I really liked poor, departed Johann and his family of proud traditions of chaos hunting.
-Vampire warband with Necromancer that shall be rememberd for writing works to inspire Lichemaster himself (Necromancer is obviously more important, as few Vampires already kicked the bucket and he has a way better record- he runs more often than gets in meele anyway).

I once watched 6 Fire Warriors get charged by 10(ish) genestealers and wipe them out, back when genestealers were totally awesome too.

>Have insane amount of background for my regiment
>Back stories for most of my squads if not troopers
>Still can't think of what to call my regiment

One time in Friedrich I played Prussia and placed von Schwerin in a bad position, where as expected, he got surrounded (only 2 ways out, both blocked). He had 8 armies, the austrian who came to kick his ass also had 8, all 3 generals in same suit. Well, I first though I'll just mitigate the damage, but then decided to hell with it, this guy deserves a chance to fight.
20 cards and about 4 stalemates later, we erach stalemate no. 5 and my opponent doesn't have any cards left. The first attacking army has to contend with a total stalemate, but the second army has to fight: wouldn't you know it, he's got 4 armies. No cards, boom, gone.

Kurt von Schwerin literally retreated out of an encirclement - through an enemy army. Very prussian of him.

Back when I played CSM, I had a specific icon bearer who in multiple games took far more punishment than he really should. Once he was shot by 120 lasguns before dying, and in another he was the last member of a squad sitting on and objective, and got shot for several turns with two battlecannons and three plasma cannons, making all of his cover saves (and actually won me the game, since if he'd have died I'd have lost the objective and it would've been a draw).

Also, I have kroot that have outperformed in melee multiple times. Once they killed a chaos lord, and another time a culexus assassin.

Not really my dude's accomplishment, but my friend's. Once I had my chaos lord charge his IG command squad, and he killed most of them on the first round of combat, leaving only the officer and the standard bearer, suffering now wounds in return, but my friend makes the ld roll and the guardsmen don't flee. Next round, he rolls a 1 on his daemon weapon, leaving him with one wound (he had already lost one wound to shooting earlier in the game). The officer still failsto wounds, but the standard bearer does one hit and one wound. No big deal, I still have a 2+ save. Well, I roll a one. We concluded that the standard bearer managed to ram the flagpole (the only thing he was equipped with that could pass for a melee weapon) right through the eye socket of the chaos lord's helmet.

Ever since then, I would describe the chaos lord as having a bionic eye (though the model still had a face-concealing helmet), and whenever I played against my friend's IG and I had that cahos lord on field, I'd make a point to kill any standard bearers first. Even if it was tactically not the best decision, I'd on the first turn pour as much firepower at the unit with the flag as I could, and tried to charge it with the chaos lord's squad if it survived.

Character names are like dog names. They start out sounding goofy and forced, but the more you use them, the more they just... fit, y'know?

>play alpha legion
>my chaos lord dies
>but he wasn't really my warlord
>chosen champion becomes new warlord
>gets charged by assault marines and chaplain, challenges chaplain
>kills the chaplain in challenge
>rolls on boon table
>DAEMONHOOD

That looks like Lopez.

One of those is not like the others, one of those do not belong.

So now Alpharius is a Daemon. Excellent. I suppose it would make sense, since most of the traitor Primarchs that aren't dead are Daemons. It's just as likely a scenario for Alpharius.

Not mine but I remember this kid who most of the people in my local GW didn't like much on the grounds of him being really annoying and having a rich dad who bought him everything or something. He went on and on about how his super cool chaos terminators were so cool and spiky, and how his daemon prince was so strong and beat everyone and was just super amazing. Also he gave no shits about painting his minis properly.

Highlight was when I watched his Daemon Prince lose his last wound to a pair of Fire warriors in melee. I think the employees played a bit of Justin Bieber to annoy him after that one.

My silly immortals teleporting squad did beat his chaos terminators in melee once too, and somehow swept them with their incredible initiative.

One of my standard tactical sergeants killed failbaddon in close combat back in 4e.
All he had was a chainsword and a plasma pistol.
That sergeant went down in history for me.

What's the head used on the converted commissar, and where can I get one?

>6 man Striking Scorpion squad
>Exarch with claw
>Get charged by 3 Wraiths turn one
>Somehow only lose 1 dude
>Take out 2 in retaliation, Exarch was responsible for 3 wounds
>Wipe the squad next turn, lost another dude
>Charge a half-strength warrior squad next turn, TSK
>Turn 5, charge fully kitted out Overlord w Scythe + Lychguard, challenge him
>Rest of squad takes out one LG, Exarch actually manages to put a wound on the fucker with his 7 attacks
>Get completely macerated in return
>That one wound on the Lord probably got me SLWL, and thus the game

The Exarch has been my favourite model ever since.

seconded

Thanks mah senpai

Playing a game of zone mortalis, I was IG, friend was playing genestealers, the game was modeled after pic related.
Three squads vs. Broodlord.
My men are getting slaughtered, and my last squad gets charged, but the BBroodlord doesn't manage to kill them all immediately.
So after injuring it with poison, heavy weapons, and psychic abilities, this squad armed with nothing but combat knives rips through the thing's last Wound.
We had to take a break after that, we couldn't stop laughing.

>Sly Marbo appears behind a squad of Marines
>The dett charge scatters wildly or rolls a 1 to wound
>EVERY. FUCKING. TIME.

Got another one.

This was during a fun little tourney with some custom rules and game objectives. The setting of it was a desert world, and the third game's background info was that a devastating sandstorm was coming in and would be utterly lethal for anybody caught out in it; there is shelter, but you have to plow through
the enemy to get to it. More or less, there are no field objectives on the table, and you score victory points by getting as many of your units into the enemy deployment zone as possible, while trying to deny the enemy from getting into yours (Basically passing by and trying to kill eachother while trying to find shelter).

For that round, I got paired up with a Necron player, and I was intentionally playing a non-competitive IG list (It was a pretty relax ordeal people were playing for fun).

Anyways, here's how it went:

>A Hellhound, a Devildog, and three Chimeras formed a Convoy
>Storm was starting to kick up, and Necrons were sighted nearby
>One Chimera got a tread severed trying to pass through a rocky outcrop. The Veteran Guardsmen inside would not have been able to reach the storm shelter before the storm arrived, so they chose to stay behind and try to take as many Xenos out with them
>Rest of the Convoy had to pass between a Monolith and a hill full of footslogging Necrons
>Somehow, they all survived incoming fire, making it through the narrow gap that was less than two Chimera chassis wide
>Bet some of the vehicle's paintjob was scraped off onto the Monolith it was so close
>pedaltothemetal.jpg
>The Hellhound and the two drivable Chimeras managed to reach safety. The Devildog got close, but was immoblolised by a penetrating hit. Driver probably got gibbed. So it stayed behind to also draw fire away fromt he rest
>Meanwhile, the veteran sqaud that remained at the rocky outcrop fought valiantly, but were slain to the man. Gave a good licking, though, somehow finishing off the Monolith and took out quite a few Xenos

ANd one last one:

>A Great Unclean One was right by a Guardsman firing line and a Leman Russ Tank
>I decided to get a little cheeky
>Nearly wrapped the gunline around the Great Unclean One, leaving only one way open
>The one way open was directly behind a Leman Russ Tank
>Tankshocked that Daemon, removing it from the table
>Not enough Oxiclean in the Imperium of Man to clean that tank

I have a halberd regiment in my ex-WHFB now-KoW empire amy that always get shit done since I built them. Its minis are a mix of free company bits and the "barefoot" bodies from the 7th edition. They have a tendency to wreck shit up and hold until the last man. In my last game of KoW they ended up turning an awful defeat into a draw by killing the equivalent of the lady of the lake, routing an unit of drakon riders and securing an objective in the last turn.

In the same vein, my steam tank got all its mojo in its first game : it rolled the equivalent of 18" worth of steam power and rolled over a slann worth 3 times his points, probably stealing his soul or something.

After that he survived the combined charge of 4 units of grail knights and killed Archaon in the Storm of Chaos.

also not mine but a friend's or rather a guy i sometimes play with
>has SoB kill team army
>they are made ouf of all "fallen" sisters
(fallen like in, they think that they disgraced the emprah and go to special "suicide unit". It's not like repentia tho, but very similar.
>named every single one of them
>if they die on the battlefield he notes down how she died and replaces her with new one(i mean name and fluff not actual model)
>notes everything noteworthy that every sister did on the battlefield
It's kinda hard to play with him because of that. Like I saw the notebook and he has what every Canones did before dying in battle for example and for how long she lived.

Back in old blood bowl one of my shaven receivers tackled an orc on a breakaway. I rolled twelve twice, which meant the orc died and my friend was a man down for the rest of the game.

I painted a little blood drop on his headgear and loincloth when I got home.

Hot

back in 7th edition my 2 fellbats managed to deal 1 wound to Archaon.

This is Sgt. McBitchslap, the Fearless.

He survived a KT game by surviving 14 regular Bolter shots, 8 Autocannon shots, and 9 melee attacks (all passed his 3+ RW against).And passed 3 leadershiptests. He took out 2 Chaos Marines with his Boltpistol, and an Aspiring Champion (is that the Chaos Sgt. in english? I'm not sure because non english first language) and 3 Chaos Bikes with his fist. Not only that, but he was the only one who survived all 8 games I played that day at the tourney. He was truly blessed by Big E that day.

I applied some bloodsplatter afterwards because he would have been drenched in blood after the amount of bitchslapping hi did that day.. The pic was taken by a guy in the lgs before the touney.

>Cybertronic annexing Imperial territory
>not the other way around
propaganda much?

user I pulled a similar feat except I was the terminators.

I still have a picture on my old HDD of when I rolled all 6's on 5d6 meaning that Logan Grimnar and his terminator bodyguards all survived the Basilisk barrage that my IG buddy dropped on them so they could assault on the next turn. He was tabled by turn 4 because of that and my wolf scouts with meltas.

Ahhhhhhhhh 5th ed. Now I miss that gaming group

This was my first game of 40k earlier this year. 1k points of space wolves vs kdk. My wolf lord ended up killing a horde of cultists, bloodletter and a daemon prince and bloodthirster with helfrost. He would eventually succumb to his wounds against some random hound. I've yet to have that kind of luck ever since. But damn, it got me hooked to 40k

Hey wait isn't that dude on the left just that guy from Guardians of the galaxy deblueified?

Was really hating how the Eldar Outcast was turning out but really starting to like her after smoothing out the armor. White is incredibly hard to paint properly.

Real heretical stuff right here.

Good lord that's legendary.

One time I was playing Kill Team in a three-way match.

I had Blood Angels (assault squad with plas + tac squad with plas)

Other guy had Death Company

Third guy had Dark Eldar Scourges

Scourges got caught in between both forces early on. A lone tactical managed to kill a Death Company Marine. A few of my tacs got killed by the DC and a few Assaults by the Scourges.

So now there's two DC left in combat with a lone Scourge. I lose a few more dudes to Scourge shooting (I think), rest of the Scourges die.

I end up charging this last Scourge.

He killed both Death Company and at least four of my Marines before he went down. It was absurd.

Aspiring = seeking, ambitious

Champion = hero, typically someone that would fight in place of a lord or king in medieval times.

They are basically Chaos sergeants in 40k.

This is the story of Datasmith Scorpius, and the day he lead the charge against the soulless Necrons with his Robot maniple

>1 squad of Castellins
>Big open area between the armies
>Using them as a fire magnet so i can move the rest of my army up
>They rush straight down the middle
> On the other side is 60 necron warriors, an arc, and their warlord
>All sixty, and the barge pour fire into the bots.
>They run right through it for three turns, take only one wound on one of the bots, and kill half a squad of Necrons with reflections off their shields, and a good bunch more with their phosphor
>Necron player tries to stall advance by rushing them with a squad of warriors
>Take no wounds, kill half the squad
>The Necrons break and fall back off the table edge
>Use consolidate to move closer to ark
>Engage it in melee on my turn and blow it up with my fists
>Rape continues until Necron player gives up.

First time i had ever used these guys, and i have loved them to bits ever since.

Below is a listing of the named crewmen of my Rogue Trader dynasty, currently exploring the vast reaches of the Koronus Sector aboard The Hellblazer, an upgraded Ramilies Class Star Fort given to the Captain's ancestor: a techno-barbaian who was defeated by the Emperor during the Unification Wars but spared and exiled to travel beyond the Great Crusade to claim planets for the Imperium.

You can figure out which names go with which models and can try and guess what I'm referencing. Also open to name changes since I'm not 100% satisfied yet and everything's WIP.

Lord-Commodore Xhon Kostyantyn, Rogue Trader

Last of his tribe, Maw Hixan, Kroot Mercenary

Captain Emizelia Galeheart, Void-master

Major-Domo Tuwin Leonister III, Seneschal

Invictus Acquisitor Hax Costeaux, Tech-Priest Explorator

Lady Deedlithe Zar-El, Eldar Outcast

Krullan of Symeria, Arch-Militant with boarding shotgun and chainsword

Ex Hive-Ganger, Rage Quit, Armsman with assault cannon

Sergeant Snick Furioso, House Guard Stormtrooper with boarding shotgun

Sanctioned Psyker Olestre Moorley, Astropath

Kommandant Helmut Clinque, Veteren Guardsman with hot shot lasgun

Sister Ripley Connor, Sister of Battle retainer with heavy flamer

Best thing I ever saw was draigo taking a wound from a ten man squad with lasguns. Then a hellhound blew up 6" away and did a wound. The Grey Knight player, desperate to get draigo into safety, assaulted a lone surviving sarge his assault phase. The IG sarge won.

It was absolutely ages ago but I used to play this meme-y assault IG list using Valks to charge on turn 1 or 2 (I can't remember the specifics it was years ago)

Had a memorable game where I was playing against a space marine guy that was a real ass to play with. Bumrushed his commander straight away with a guard squad and somehow managed to kill it, had him checking rulebooks for a solid 20 minutes trying to tell me why I wasn't allowed to do that.

Gave that unit a little mark on their helmets to commemorate it

I now have a great Kill Team mission idea. Team v. Team v. NPC Broodlord.

DA tactical marine, plasma cannon.
Used in 5 games, untill Friday knight he had not been killed.
By this point, he had killed three SM bikes and 4 tactical Marines.
Our group plays w/ template weapons hitting friendly units.
All of his kills were teammates, one of which involved wiping the what remained of his squad. Including himself.

He finally redeemed himself for wasting a good 29 pts in my army roster by removing a 5-man plauge marine squad with a direct hit, and killing 4 necron warriors in melee.

Ltn. BlueBalls was given a paint job to commemorate his first (non friendly) kill
