2----
3* The Cadian Kasrkin in the ''{{Literature/Eisenhorn}}'' novel ''Malleus'' get one when they unhesitatingly attack a ''[[DemonicPossession daemonhost]]'' in ''hand-to-hand combat'' because the daemon is too close to a group of people they've gene-encoded their weapons to not fire at. Considering that daemonhosts are capable of [[OneManArmy obliterating entire]] ''[[OneManArmy armies]]'' [[OneManArmy singlehandedly]], this is a sign of just how awesome the Kasrkin are.
4** Commodus Voke holding off Prophaniti. Just a Main/PunyEarthling against a destroyer of armies, and although it cost him his life, it gave Eisenhorn the time he needed to destroy the daemonhost.
5** Uber Aemos summoning and later stopping Cherubael.
6*** Eisenhorn's defeat of Prophaniti. Although he was using a weapon tailored to destroy daemons, this counts as a CMOA simply because Prophaniti was COMPLETELY destroyed, even back in the warp. It should be noted that this is an insanely rare occurrence.
7*** In ''Hereticus'', Eisenhorn is called by a close ally to a meeting. However, it's a trap and Eisenhorn is surrounded by a minor villainess and a gang of well armed mooks. Even he can't worm out of this one...except he's over 3 miles away, mentally controlling a psychic puppet bomb. After getting all the information he needs, he then wipes out the whole party.
8** End of chapter 1 of Xenos:
9--->"Come and let me show you how I killed Eyclone."
10** This is before he shoves the pistol (customized by Vibben, who just died) into Eyclone's mouth, shattering his teeth, and then PUNCHING it into his skull, driving the finger guard into his mouth before blowing the back of his skull out.
11** Cherubael frying a Chaos Titan, doubles as CMOF as a mad priest with an imperial eagle plaque then makes him scream and run away.
12** Cherubael's curbstomp of a fight against another Daemonhost at the end of Hereticus after being sorely restricted in power by Eisenhorn while his opponent is barely bound to his host and therefore able to throw everything at him, while Cherubael isn't even allowed to laugh.
13--->'''Cherubael:''' You have no idea how strong I truly am, Eisenhorn.
14* Regarding then beginning of Malleus:
15-->'''Betancore:''' Never argue with a [[BigDamnGunship GunCutter]], asshole.
