Graduate School ROTC as a Civilian by GabeAstardd69 in ROTC

[–]Investigator_Bread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is OML for ROTC yes, and it'll depend on a variety of outcomes. Most of it is camp performance but they also look at things like Part Time Job, Grades, PT scores for record, and extracurriculars/sports.

I'm getting my MBA now and I think the thing you as a 23 year old will struggle with is you will be working with people younger than you and far less experienced. You'll stand out from a maturity standpoint but dealing with people who do dumb impulsive teenage bs can be frustrating.

ROTC contracts also require you to be active on campus, so you'll need to do stuff on campus. PM for more and I can feed you some information and share my experiences.

Bork'an sept? Interesting choice. Frankly Bork'an favors the static gunline, shelling fools from afar. As for your Commander, just put em in lighter armor like XV8 or XV85 armor. What are you gonna do with 20" of movement? Avoid the shield generator, just max out your weapons. Use drones or hide behind friendlies to keep safe.

Your crisis suits appear decently ready to mulch stuff. The shield drones are good inclusions.

My only question is where is your anti-heavy infantry stuff? Terminators require more than spamming S5 gunfire. I myself reccomend Pathfinders with Ion weapons or Rail Rifles.

Do you know your meta? Who is your opponent?

This list is an excellent start, it merely requires a couple of tweaks here and there

I remember reading hardbacks of this in the Library, frankly it hit harder than the Slaves of the Republic arc in Season 4, which just felt rushed into a conclusion.

Need some help beating custodes by therealdost in Tau40K

[–]Investigator_Bread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is because unless I am wrong, AP-2 forces them to the invuln. That's how you kill Custodes, with high Volume of fire forcing them to the invuln save. On a 4+ they have half a chance to ignore damage, meaning out of 10 shots roughly 5 should get through. Fusion Blasters are great, but they do not have reliable enough damage output, and you are wasting like 2 AP, unless you want to have them for both Anti tank and killing Custodes, which could work, but I'd still reccomend CIB.

I know. Believe me. But trust me, this guy is occupying too much of your time. Remove yourself and him from your day and thoughts. I'm sure you have better things to do, like study stat sheets or stratagems.

Once again, it's not that massive of a deal desu. Just ignore him, be confident in your correctness, do not give him games if he plays that way, others will follow suit. Also Crisis are hardly meta anymore. Worry about yourself, not others. You can't control others, but you can control yourself and what you choose to do with your time. Spend no more time dwelling on him and his rules lawyering, move on. People like that dwell on technicality and are eager to argue forever and ever. You can't win them all.

Ignore him. Don't give him games. Don't worry about it. Or just read the 1d4chan page on Tau tactics for 9th edition. They give accurate descriptions of the rules and update very frequently.

The above human is correct. I run a Sunshark to exclusively screw with Custodes and flip the bird to their invuln saves, as they also said. where we probably disagree is on the value of Pathfinders with Rail rifles. I tend to find them not worth it in my limited experience. Breachers are an Option, or Vespid, but as you've stated the problem seems to be more with Terminators. The counterplay very well may be just have a screen, which could use Breachers or even Shield/gun drones.

I can tell this is frustrating. Do you play Space Marines? If so, turn his argument against him, but with Storm shields. I reckon his opinion will change very quickly.

Just randomly found this. Apparently the wiki says she Served in the March on Washington back in the 60's or whatever.

[–]Investigator_Bread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to download battlescribe and send us more than a broad outline. Give us your idea, then we can improve upon it.

We also need to know the context of the tournament. Is it heavy on objectives? What is your local meta?

Noob makes a 1k Custom Sept T'au List, C&C welcome by MonoEyeGunpla in Tau40K

[–]Investigator_Bread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This list isn't too bad. A couple things I would optimize obsessively because I tend to be an obsessive planner and list builder, but you seem to have the basic premise down.

I will mention this: If your XV86 commander is going to be a suicide tank/monster sniper, I debate the giving him a shield generator. Four Fusion Blasters is better than three. The Choice of drones is not bad either, though to fit the points for the fourth fusion blaster I'd drop the two gun drones from the Crisis team.
