So, I'm playing Deathwatch again. Still got the same character that beat a Hive Tyrant and Chaos Sorcerer [followed by causing a Daemon to feel fear] in close combat. I only have 17 wounds. I haven't taken damage the whole time in the characters' lifetime.
We're preparing for an assault on an airbase, and our chosen vector of attack takes us through a series of underground tunnels.
Turns out they were a
Necron Tomb. So we're navigating through a shifting maze of corridors and rooms - fortunately the first Necron we fought was an Immortal rather than something seriously nasty, and it died in one turn due to my Astartes buddies getting lucky. Then a Lychguard comes through.
My character got knocked back into another room by the Immortal's first shot [took no damage, though] and the door slammed shut. The Astartes fight the Lychguard for a bit, and when the door re-opens, my character charges and instakills the Lychguard [it had like 5 wounds left]. It doesn't get back up.
So we continue. We eventually find the exit.
Standing in front of it is:
-Another Lychguard
-A Deathmark
-A Necron Overlord
My response?
CHARGE!After two incredibly lucky Righteous Fury rolls on it [the Astartes were dealing with the Lychguard and Deathmark], the Overlord...well, he had an item that made an attack impossible to parry with three degrees of success or more.
His WS at this time was 65. He rolled a 32.
I get hit by a Hyperphase Sword. Instantly take 2 Critical Damage to the arm and I drop one of my two power swords.
I still have three attacks next turn.
First attack, 4 total damage.
Second attack, 19 total damage.
Third attack...39 total damage. Coupled with the earlier ones, the Overlord finally falls. Well, teleports away, but nevermind that. We escape.
Mira Steel is a badass. =)
