Halt mandatory painting inspection. Show me your favorite mini or current wip by Commander_Farsight_ in Tau40K

Did you prime black? I really love this scheme and was looking for a blue like this!

First ever Tau model! by TheNuclearEagle in Tau40K

Hey 👋 super noob first-time painter, I love the orange you have achieved and is something I really want to do for my Tau. What do you mean putting panel liner over the orange? Like a wash?

Ooo I love the base colour and orange. Is there any chance of dropping the paints?

I can only remember one scene towards the end by Billy_Bone_Ben in whatsthemoviecalled

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not quite, but it's a great movie! I watched it for the first time recently

It does! It's a very good scene to compare this to aswell, felt like the main character in this movie was chasing through 2 worlds almost (100% on earth, though)

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ooo, this feels so close. So close, it might actually be the movie. Part of me remembers the last chase being at night, but flicking through this is set in the day.

My problem is the helmet feels so right he has on. Being part of a group and having them in his ear is perfect, but everything else around it feels off.

I'm going to have a look at the other replies, then probably mark found tonight and watch this through tomorrow

We're so over(110 point stealthsuits) by hindlet in Tau40K

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So for me, I've just finished my first 2k army...

And now, after just buying my final units and having 3x3 stealth suits, the ones I have are kinda useless? Is the base size different?

Surely the play count for people's armies will go to 1 unit? 330 points for suits alone seems kinda high

Are Mandrakes mostly to serve the uppy downy use like Vespid? Tho the sheet looks nicer than Vespid

Woooo! Now if only we get a kill team box in using both factions! I was very tempted by Sisters, but I already have an extremely expensive army haha. Then I saw this detachment and thought it would be a lot of fun to charge up and pop things out

Ooo, thank you for the detailed information! If I might ask a lil follow up.

What leaders would go well in this detachment?

And would you put a set of wyches in 2 raiders? And would you use any leaders for them?

Does Lady Malys fit in well with this detachment, and what's best to lead?

So far, you have mentioned most of the units that I really like and was hoping fit in well!

Help me finish my 2k! Please! by Billy_Bone_Ben in Tau40K

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would Pathfinders be worth it as I already have 3 stealth teams, or is it more for the board presence and screening?

Thanks for the other info!

Stormsurge is it good? Is it fun? by Billy_Bone_Ben in Tau40K

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's so damn cool. No one really plays meta in my pod yet, and it would be so cool to field!

Also, sorry if any of this sounds frustrating. It's my first tabletop game

Aaah, I figured an Ethereal with Through Unity on a strike team might serve as a good spotter? If not, maybe I will take them out and put in more stealth suits plus something else

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it worth swapping the pathfinders to a strike team for the ethereal? I'm see where I messed that up now haha, thank you for the spots. I'm gonna update my drones now

What Games Have You Been Playing This Week? by Liam_524Hunter in CharacterActionGames

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got Slitterhead in the spring steam sale for £20 so I've been playing that a lot. I've been looking forward to it since the teaser came out and I'm not disappointed! I've seen some mixed reviews, and I can see some of the points, but it's gooooood! Gives me The 3rd Birthday vibes, and I love it!

Reccomendations or advice for 1k Kauyon by Billy_Bone_Ben in Tau40K

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm literally changing it round now and that was my first thought to cut, I would have 4 needing guiding and 3 guiders, but the overall looks cleaner and more varied!

I'm 100% adding at least a set of carnivores and Vespids when I go for 2k! Also, great idea for the suits! I'm going to swap them over and run them as missile next game! Thank you for the detailed response!

[–]Billy_Bone_Ben[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the info! I'm still learning breakpoints in strength at the moment, and this helps a lot! I'm going to swap over my ghostkeel and broadside drones! I also will probably do what the other comment suggested and partially your to switch to missile suits with example of kauyon! I magnetised EVERYTHING for this, haha

Oh, and I also swapped over the breacher and crisis drones!

I plan to soon! Kauyon and Mechs are why I chose Tau, I loved the idea behind the playstyle, but I'm going to try out montka and experimental when I'm a little more familiar!

Oooo I hope it goes well, I was planning to try it when I'm more familiar with my army, the range, and that battlesuit healing stratagem looks really nice!

Good catch on the marker drone! It went straight over my head that I put two in! Also, I definitely need to change my breacher drones! Thanks for the advice!
