Ten Examples of BAD LUCK in Warhammer 40K

Just make a video watching one of my games. I am the king of bad luck. 5 relic terminators charging your line. You get a decent amounts of hits with no ap.... don't worry, I'll roll a dozen 1s and lose my terminators.....

I have so many good stories. Next time...

Oh man! I'm disappointed I missed the opportunity to tell one of my stories. I have so many horrific dice rolls 😂

I've personally done the exact same thing. Except my terminators also had reroll charge rolls

Saw this post, and for a second I thought I somehow added a profile picture and wrote a comment without knowing it.

8 powerfist strikes into guard commander. All hit. All fail to wound.

Not mine, but I was playing against my custode friend and the poor guy failed 3 consecutive 3" charges in the same phase with his individual terminators. I felt so bad for him. The next shooting phase I killed his bike captain with a max dmg krak missile

Oh nelly... Deathwatch combat squad about to duke it out in close combat with chaos possessed, opponent decides to take a pot shot with his Warps Malice relic pistol. Because of Wanton Massacre he gets 4 shots, each 6 incurs 2 mortal wounds. Fine, whatever. He rolled 4 sixes. Stacking with WM and additional hits, that's 12 MW. Not even the Black Templars 5+ save could prevent the entire squad getting wiped.

7th edition. I was playing as Eldar. Had a Farseer was trying to cast Eldritch storm and I rolled 7 dice I had gotten five 1s and two 2s re-rolled the dice and ended up getting five 2s and two 1s I quit playing eldar that day and have never used psychic powers since. even playing armies that don't have psykers

Fifth edition. My roommate and best friend is playing his Thousand Sons against me. When he was debating an early deployment setup, I jokingly asked if he was praying to Tzeentch. He replied, equally joking, "F--- Tzeentch". That game he had all three of his Aspiring Sorcerers die to Perils of the Warp, and I only got a single wound on his general before it, too, died to Perils. His troops at the time rolled a d6 for movement, and I have never seen so many 1s and 2s get rolled. I barely had to do anything to win that game. We were laughing uproariously at the sheer stupidity of the dice by the end.

Recently had a game I'm playing grey knights, my friend playing black templars, the dice were not on his side that day he was unable to kill anything with his eradicators or his gladiator valiant with techmarine to hit on 2s proceed to roll all 1s apart from 1 6 which I saved on a 6up he's also then charging with blade guard vets with chief apothecary in tow and a redemptor not to far behind I dislike the blade guard with the apothecary as they become really difficult to kill he destroys a 2 man squad of strike squad so I charge in with paladins and and a ancient kaldor draigo gate of infinity my gm in dreadknight to the blade guard with everything there I wipe the squad of vets redemptor charges in doesn't do anything then gets cut down and explodes wound my dreadknight paladins and apothecary he rolls 5s and 6s for my mw he's Done more with a dreadnought explosion that he has done all game

Literally played a game 2 days ago with my Custodes where a lot of the time I only needed a 2+ save and the dice gods presented me with 1’s. I must have rolled 1. 40 times 🤦🏻‍♂️

Just the other weekend I played Emperors Children vs World Eaters in Zone Mortalis. I completely forgot about my friend's reaction he still had, and before I wanted to charge with my blades I shot him with bolt pistoles. He charged me with his 5+ fnp successfully, I kill one model on the charge with my measly roles and his saves. He kills two palatine blades out of the nine, and I throw all of my attacks at him. Base attacks, counter-attacks, melee + pistol attacks...And I only get two wounds through. Everything was rolled as a one or two besides two fours. Not even 6's for rending and murderous strike. He saves both with his normal armor save. So since I failed the combat I failed moral, and he successfully sweeps me. This is of course before all of my blades could individually duel every model and make it harder but man that turned the game from a close Victor to a solid draw. And this happened because I stupidity decided to shoot him before I charged.

5 Games in a row my holy Primarch Roboute Guilliman failed to save his Life on a 4+ :D :D FIVE!!

Playing sisters. Overcharged the combi-plasma on the superior. Rolled a 1 and she died. Back then, they had the sacred rite to allow a dying model to make a shooting attack. Rolled a success, and figured I'd overcharge again, because why not? I rolled another frakking 1.
