If there are less than five RnF left you have to allocate hits, in which case it can become interesting. But other than that and sniper shooting OTS does not affect shooting.

In the ots example i said ranged. Not just shooting.
I should be more specific for example using sniping spells but in both of the other types of examples like shooting it can be forgotten too.
I am a big fan of it. And the epic thread has priven how awesome it is via the ghoul king kicking ass cos if it.

If it was a sniping spell or something, then yeah it's really annoying if someone "forgets" that OTS was next to them. Same as when they give their lord Helm of Many Eyes and then "forget" about the stupidity effect until they reach combat.
Personally, I'd be tempted to say "No worries; we'll just assume you failed all those saves - remove those models if you'd be so kind."
I bet he'll remember in future.

The best old war story i have is back in 3rd (or 4th) my slann general managed to kill a chaos lord in CC (this was back when they were mounted on 2 cave bases and had more attacks due to the saurs guardians). But the look on my opponents face, priceless!
Marched against a dwarf gunline and had a rough time when a Wightking(GW only), a Wightking BSB (GW and banner of swiftness), a Wightking (Potion of strength, Charmed sheild, Sword of striking, and dragonbane gem), Blender lord, and 2 out of 40 GG reached his line. Charged them into a unit of 30 Ironbreakers and his lord (1+ rerollable, 4++, and some weapon I think). 2 rounds of combat it was the kitted out WK, Blender Lord, and the GG Banner VS. his lord and unit champ. I got flank charged and that was the game but 6 models killing 29 of his elite unit and I lost 3 overall! I was pretty proud of my blender.
I'm playing against Brets tonight so hopefully awesome stories tomorrow!
Edit: I Played that game and the most amazing thing in that entire game a single spirit host base. Start to finish of the story so it may be long, sorry guys. He double charged a unit of ghouls with Questing and Realm Knights. I stuck with 8-ish models and a vamp hero. I flank charged the realm knights with my GG and Blender lord. He killed enough ghouls to take the Questing Knights out of combat and I wrecked the Realm. I then overran into the remaining Questing. He had a nice juicy rear charge on the GG and I got a single spirit host base into the rear of his unit of Grail Knights. The have magical attacks but missed/failed to wound with every one of them. Thus I had Rear(+2CR) and charge (+1CR) and he had 3 Ranks (-3CR) and banner (-1CR). which left my base with 3 wounds left. His turn starts and cannot rear charge the GG, I kill the Questing Knights and reform to face his grail. Then 2 terrorgheists yelled the crap out of his Grail Knights leaving 4 out of 12 to charge 40 GG and a Blender Lord. It didn't go so well for him.
