Had a game the other day against a dwarf warmachine fanatic (no seriously about 5-10 war machines in a 2k list)

he fires off his great cannon at my screaming bell on the first turn hitting it square

Passed the ward save...

Rolled 2,3,4.... yup the magic 9

He then proceeds to roll alot of 5s and 6s for his d3 wounds taking out 90% of his warmachines

The screaming bell pretty much won me the game before i even had my first turn

Silly dwarf face
Shhhh I'm not here

Shennanigans are out of the question!
That, my friends is why the screaming bell should be present in ALL games of 2250 or more!

Freaking magic, BV!

This is why it's never good to concentrate so much on something. The look on his/her face must be priceless.

He surrendered straight after so there isnt much of a battle report,

He said he had about 1200 points of warmachines though

It was hysterical,

He was gloating how "oo ill kill your little brass dingdong strapped on plywood chariot and think it holy" with his oh so great cannons of devastating dwarven engineering pwnage ect

Dwarf: "HAHAHAHA I hit it now 2+ to wound and its dead!"

Me: *rolls 6*

Dwarf:"HAH STUPID SKAVEN FACE WITH PLYWOOD BELL ITS GONE!"

Me:*i roll 5*

Dwarf:"wait!. What was that for!?"

Me: "Plywood bell has a ward save"

Me: *rolls 2,3,4*

Dwarf:"And what was that for!?"

Me: "save effect"

Dwarf:"Some kind of malfunction thing for your ward save since skaven suck at making stuff LoL (yes he really said lol...)"

Me: "Kinda.... Anything with toughness 7 or higher takes d3 wounds"

Dwarf:"Heh so youll kill a few things"

Me: *rolls alot of 5,6*

Me: "Umm... i think thats all your cannons and most of your spear throwers dead."

Dwarf: "..... Thats just cheesy"

Me: "Yes it is"

Dwarf:"That is so cheap!"

Me:"Shame your the one that caused it by underestimating my "plywood bell" as well as my skaven in general"

Dwarf "You wouldn't of won if you didn't use your cheesey skaven tactics!"

Me: "This coming from a guy that have over half his army war machines and the rest of it ranged units"

Dwarf "Thats how dwarfs play!"

Me: "Dwarves play by killing all their own warmachines in the first turn then bitch about cheesyness after?"

Dwarf: "Im not going to play with you anymore CHEESE!" (his voice gets very loud and aggressive at this point)

(Owner of the shop is now over our table to see this rant)

Owner: "Dominique is probally the least cheesy player here mate"

Dwarf:"Shes a skaven player and girls shouldnt even play warhammer because they suck!"

Owner: "Just because she plays skaven doesnt mean she plays cheese, In fact half the time she gimps herself just to make the game more fun"

Dwarf: "Thats why she doesnt win then! She sucks!"

Me:"I suck because i wanna enjoy the game?"

Owner: "know what mate until you can change your attitude from that of a moany little kid i dont want you here your putting off my other customers that want to enjoy their game"

*dwarf leaves*

Owner: "I'm gonna put the screaming bell into the "unit of the week" "

Me: "as long as its now known as the plywood bell of dwarfslaying"

Me and owner: *laugh*



That is the Summary give or take but thats pretty much how the convo went after



ALL FEAR THE PLYWOOD BELL!

Wow, that guy sounds like a... lets just say bad sport... Its just not worth fighting people who have hissy fits and leave when things go badly for them...
Good to see the store manager came over and sorted him out.

That was one amazing roll though! Good to see that fate was against the SAD Dwarf Gunline...

thats what the stunted mole people get for using too many war machines, the least the guy could of done was carry one playing, people expect skaven to fight on when things go wrong and they'll laugh at you, yet when they go belly up they're like "oh you cheated, i surrender" :KA-BOOM:
