Cheese

Cheese is a term used by many gamers to describe a particular 'overpowered', abusive, or rule-exploiting army list, usually one that stretches the (admittedly sketchy) rationale of the game even further than usual.

These lists often include armies with three Eldar Wraithlords or three Necron Monoliths; or armies skimping on basic troops in order to maximize the points available to kit out characters or take more large tanks, etc. Common recent trends are lists consisting of large blocks of Nob Warbikers, Valkyrie heavy Imperial Guard lists with Veterans, or Chaos players with lists designed to incorporate as many Lash of Submission psychic powers as possible.

Other similar terms are 'beardy', 'power', 'tournament', or 'crunchy'.
