Sure. There was a player who had a really small and seemingly weak undead army. But he knew the terrain really well on the battlefield. He used the fog - covered areas and some hidden passages to his advantage. His skeleton archers would shoot from unexpected positions and his zombies would hold the line long enough for his necromancer to raise more troops. In the end, he defeated a much larger and more powerful chaos army. It was a great underdog victory.
In a local tournament, there was a player with a scratc - built orc army. The orcs were not as well - painted or organized as the other armies. But the player had a wild and aggressive strategy. He charged his orcs head - on into the enemy lines every time, creating chaos. His opponents were so used to more calculated and defensive play that they were caught off - guard. Eventually, this orc - player defeated several more 'polished' armies and became a local legend for his underdog victories.

One interesting story could be about a player who managed to turn the tide of a battle with a very creative use of a low - tier unit.

Even though they ultimately perished, their stand became a symbol of resistance against a much stronger enemy, and it inspired the rest of the Greeks to continue the fight against the Persians.
