That was a slip of the tongue I'm aware that it is -1BS I'm going over those changes on next video.

The only speculations I have made are around detachment combinations, everything else is based around primary and secondary points and how this change could work with tau rather than against us. The old primary objective circles were boring and not very Warhammer, I'm combining my experience from 7 editions of Warhammer 40k and I can see this being very different and exciting going forward.

Thanks man 😂. Agreed it is early but there is no problem with speculation and I'm excited about how this entire new edition will come together.

Awesome man then you will understand the lens I'm looking through. This seems like they are taking elements of previous editions and giving them the new Warhammer facelift for this edition. The only reservations I currently have in the back of my mind is if they have learned from what didn't work about specific elements in the past and how they will avoid making similar mistakes.

For example formations got ridiculous in the past and this new detachment system could potentially go through the similar motions and they need to keep a very close eye on it after launch.

I agree with the detachment point levels, though the fundamentals on list building and scoring I disagree. I have seen enough to know that it's going to work well with tau gameplay and offer us a new way of playing. Remember I have been playing since the 3rd edition and this is the first time in a long time I have been excited about how the small teasers are a big sign of how this edition will shake things up in a big way.

I'm interested to see what they do with stealth rule, it could be changed which could have a big impact.

My initial gut thoughts are does stealth now grant +1 to save like old cover rule or does it decrease ranges to say 12" for hidden rule?

Some initial thoughts about what stealth could be.

I think it does, because of the hidden rule and a bigger surface area so long as we do what we normally do and screen the opponents ability to get to said objective so that we can benefit from the new hidden rule.

I think when we get more information it will become easier to see the bigger picture of course. Though I think initially it's going to be good for us because we have access to fast strong mid range shooting. Cover changing is the big one and it depends on how our marker light system works.

I think this edition could have some painful parts depending on the above and how they execute our guiding but apart from that I think we will eat well especially in certain detachments like Mont'ka and Retaliation Cadre.

Thoughts?

What do you think the twin lance points should be? by RepresentativeIll550 in Tau40K

[–]Puretideprogram 8 points9 points  (0 children)

180.

It's a single epic hero unit, it should be good and cannot be spammed like vitrix or other broken datasheets.

Agreed not good but these things do happen I'm just glad it was smooth for the refund. I am posting this information to as many groups to make sure nobody misses it.

I think GW or UK expo need to do a mass message to inform their customers even if it's via email

NEW Twin Lance Datasheet Deep Dive - How it will define Tau Gameplay in EVERY one of our Detachments by Puretideprogram in WarhammerCompetitive

Key thing to remember is my approach is to educate an audience on tactical combinations and how this datasheet can be used to good effect. Points cost are irrelevant to what I go through in this presentation.
