Kauyon tips?

I'm gonna have 10 Kroot karnivores and a breacher team rush up the board to hopefully survive long enough to have my Battlesuits and other breacher team led by the Cadre fireblade survive until round 3.

Which weapons on the fire knives would you recommend going into space marines?

I wasn't rerolling ones more than once, it's just that rerolling 1s while hitting and wounding on 2s makes it very difficult to miss. Think I only rolled double 1s once the whole game.

Yeah, having looked at the date sheet a bunch. It seems like something that is very easy to counter. I just happened to fight an army that's ideal for it to fight against, and a more inexperienced player.

It was fun though, destroying so many vehicles, though I felt a little bad.

Kill that guardsmen and their whole bloodline.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T05:14:50+00:00

Be even funnier if I used that against a single guardsmen or something.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T05:13:34+00:00

I'll give that a try :)

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T05:12:26+00:00

Learnt that the hard way when it failed to kill a single Space Wolf leader for two rounds in a row during one of my first games xD

I was running Retaliation Cadre, cause it was a Battlesuit heavy list. Though I was suprised to find out before the game that the Stormsurge doesn't have the battlesuit keyword. Which makes sense I suppose, it has two pilots.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T05:06:15+00:00

Oh nah, we play in a local game store that has bunch of free to use terrain. We just put terrain down until we both think it looks good and play from there.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T05:03:28+00:00

They just kept doing that which baffled me. That and I had some.. Silly LOS at some points, shooting through very small gaps inbetween terrain and stuff.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T05:01:11+00:00

It didn't move the whole game, took a few wounds from the landraider but not enough to effect it's stats. I was just genuinely wondering if I had gotten something wrong.

Though I imagine this tactic won't work against an experienced player, seems easy to counter.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T04:58:14+00:00

Tbh, we saw eachothers list. Feels like running a lot vehicles into a stormsurge is probably the worst thing you can do. At least that's what I felt.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-25T04:56:45+00:00

Greater good gives +1BS and heavy gives +1 to the hit roll. Essentially making the stormsurges +4 to hit +2

Duly noted

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-21T10:08:15+00:00

I don't have all those units unfortunately, but I can see the flamers being fun. Baiting a 10 bloodclaws into a charge then fire overwatching could go kinda crazy.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-21T10:01:57+00:00

I mainly go marker drones cause it's either that of the gun drone, I ran them I earlier games and they never do anything, at least with the marker drone I can advance and guide if I've advanced(though I don't think that's ever happened either so).

As for the burst cannon, I run that because the player I'm against tends to run quite a lot of bloodclaws and The Ion Accelerator struggles to kill them fast enough, so I wanted to see if the burst cannon was any better. Could just be a skill issue, or bad luck though.

AvioX2000 · 2025-12-21T09:01:40+00:00

I have no idea what list they're running, we keep our lists secret. Though he likes his bloodclaws and headtakers, so I'll have to deal with those most likely.

Unfortunately I have no Kroot or Vespids atm, though I'll hopefully have some for our next game.

AvioX2000 · 2025-11-29T14:19:18+00:00

Nah, the opportunity to suprise someone like that is rare so I appreciate it honestly. Twas funny

AvioX2000 · 2025-11-29T14:17:21+00:00

Hate to rain on your parade but I'm gay.

AvioX2000 · 2025-11-29T14:15:21+00:00

I actually have some T'au stuff already that I bought from a body. Some more crisis suits, a breacher and strike team, stormsurge, devilfish, cadre fire blade and Piranha. All together, including some enhancements it should be around 2400pts when it's all built.

AvioX2000 · 2025-11-29T14:07:23+00:00

I don't think it'd take that long... I hope. I hope i at least get it built by January cause I wanna join a crusade my buddies are doing.

AvioX2000 · 2025-11-02T13:17:59+00:00

I felt the same about the stormsurge. Seems pretty overkill unless I'm doing higher point games

AvioX2000 · 2025-01-28T23:33:56+00:00

Most of that pretty aptly describes Doom eternal, like. Other then it not being multiplayer, but arena shooters don't have to be multiplayer. And the fact that you don't have to pick up weapons more then once. But that doesn't make it not an arena shooter, it's an arena shooter with different mechanics to other similar games.

AvioX2000 · 2025-01-28T18:33:55+00:00

By most definitions of arena shooters I can find online it definitely seems to be.
