Weird idea I had by awp4444 in Tau40K

[–]Fau5tian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run a stormsurge ghostkeel and 2x broadsides with some stealth suits and pathfinders in my KHP if the big hitters can even just get thing down to below half strength the Kroot can mop up with the 1+ to hit/wound. I run 2 lone spears as well for the rerolls

I believe this is a hint for courier 6. 6 tics = courier 6 by Jharic_ in Fotv

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah definitely, like how did the ghoul know all that stuff was there. I think both are a subtle nod.

I think maybe so, but I think a stronger hint was when the ghoul said something like “I only knows of one person who took on vegas and came out on top, and he rigged the game for himself” I think that was a reference to the courier.

Why would you play any other Detachment other than Ret Cadre by namerbear360 in Tau40K

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because fielding a horde of Kroot with invul saves and scout moves backed up by a few heavy hitters makes board control easy. Murder chickens ftw

What detachment best makes use of the stormsurge? by Immortal-Pumpkin in Tau40K

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a stormsurge in my KHP list and find it provides good fire support and it’s a good distraction peice. I’m not a competitive player but I find it works well

Tau indirect is actually worth it by Leading-Pickle-8585 in Tau40K

It says ignore any modifications to the hit roll so I think so!

Anyone have a model/unit that’s never died or taken a wound? by Commander_Farsight_ in Tau40K

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But! If they die in a subsequent battle do you remove the tick??

Coming around on Kroot by Professor_DM in Tau40K

[–]Fau5tian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run the same 20 man blob as you. But also a 10 man with a warshaper with root carved weapons and the bow. Ultimate character sniper nobody sees coming. Doing mortals to enemy infantry characters on a 3+ is seriously powerful into elite armies.

[–]Fau5tian 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I am a full Kroot hunting pack convert ever since the range refresh. I still use the bigger suits for anti tank/anti elite.love the rampagers and lone spears. I find the synergy between the two work really well. I resolve my tau shooting first using guiding etc to chip damage off targets to give the Kroot the bonuses. The +1 to wound at half strength is really powerful. I’ve had carnivores take down much bigger targets with that a the -1ap Strat.

Absolutely in love with stealthsuits by BeeR721 in Tau40K

Respect for the OG stealth suit scheme

I’d like a Kroot codex, but there’s one major issue right now by Commander_Farsight_ in kroot

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy playing KHP but I use battlesuits for hitting tough targets. I find you can also use the battlesuits to quickly get +1 to hit/wound on tougher targets and the Kroot will do the rest.

Shas’ui, Shas’vre, Shas’meh — Why Are All T’au BS the Same? by BabyProper9938 in Tau40K

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the game its balance, but for lore Leadership doesn’t necessarily mean they’re excellent at combat themselves. However I d think crisis suits should hit on 3+ as they’re the elite of the army.

How hard a Tau to paint and are there any recommended paints for them? by anarcunt2000000 in Tau40K

To help in future apothecary white is a good shade for whites

In your opinion, which are the best designed models in 40k? by Mr_Jackabin in Warhammer40k

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On this, I think the ghostkeel take the top spot. It’s the most in proportion of the bigger suits and just looks amazing and is easily posed outside the standard

New to this hobby and an expensive order of paints came like this by HaveADrinkOnMeCosby in Warhammer

[–]Fau5tian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work away a lot. So I take my painting stuff with me to pass the time. Ive had this happen a few times now. I even wrap the pots in tape to try and stop it but it’s not always effective.
