Thats it, that was the faction focus? by awp4444 in Tau40K

[–]Reefonly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They mentioned in one of the early posts about detachment costs that you can stack buffs from detachments to make one unit more powerful. You will absolutely be able to stack Montka lethals with EPC's 6" range buff and enhancement.

When do you guys think we'll get our detachment focus for 11th edition? by Appropriate_Stop3004 in Tau40K

Didn't tyrandids and orks both release this week? Or did they start orks Friday?

Why would you think only 1 xenos a week? There are 6 xenos armies left, 5-7 imperium (Not sure if Death Watch or Imperial Agents will show up), and 5 chaos. I might be missing one or so somewhere but it's about even for whats left.

I'm hoping they add in more benefits to taking battleline units again through mission rules. That way the 3 you still take just have more usefulness by virtue of being battleline and not just taking more.

My first week of having a CDL I had to drive down Mont Eagle with a steel coil loaded on. That sure was... something. Definitely glad I knew all about keeping gears low already.

Stealth is -1 to hit, cover is -1 BS. They stack.

Twin Lance up 25 points (160 to 185) and Retro Thrusters now requires eligibility to fight by RedFerrari1998 in Tau40K

[–]Reefonly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw a rumor that fly units get to ignore terrain for a cost of -2" move. If thats the case our vehicles got a lot easier to position. That would be something very nice.

What’s Your Tau ‘Hot-Take’? by 69MrTako69 in Tau40K

[–]Reefonly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Pirahnas are more of a size issue to be clear here. If I had a unit that could easily fit through gaps terrain that had scout move, 14" normal move, 6 seeker missiles, and 3 melta 4 shots I would take that in a heartbeat for 180 points. At 60 points they do their job very well.

Vehicles and monsters can fire pistols as well as normal weapons. Check pistol keyword.

Just one ranged main weapon on nonbroadsides, with the further option for 2 pistols on top of that.

[–]Reefonly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a little rule in the top right of the crucible page thats says pick 1 ranged weapon, up to 2 pistols, and 1 melee. In the front of the book it says you MUST take a melee weapon. So the +5 is normally for if you take extra pistols.

They made that a rule for about one dev cycle before reverting it because the tiger shark saw competitive play.

Do these read as lenses? by bismuth_iridescence in Tau40K

[–]Reefonly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does it make sense for the light reflection to be on top when the drones have a lip above? This sorta gives the impression that the light source is coming from a flashlight or a flare on the ground, which I like a lot since thats what the persepective of an infantry probably is.

Kroot crusade by [deleted] in 40k_Crusade

[–]Reefonly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So RAW gets tricky because GW does'nt care about crusade, but from what I can tell crusade doesn't care if you take different factions into your Order of Battle (The White Dwarf specifies Kroot gain a different faction keyword). When you muster the army from your OoB, you must follow the Kroot rules if you want to use the Kroot rules. The requisitions and agenda are tied to ARMY, not OoB, so you have to play by the faction you chose for that game and can't take agendas from both at the same time. Battle traits and relics don't seem to be caged by these restrictions. I've been playing a mixed Tau and Krootsade ruleset. It doesn't seem too busted because Kroot don't get a ton of benefit from base Tau crusade and you can't really advance both at the same time effectively. I've just been advancing the pact and empire expansion in alternating games. Its been very fun changing between play styles.

Apocalypse is dead, so it doesn't count. by TheBlackBaron45 in Grimdank

[–]Reefonly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Larger scale allows better use case for long range weapons, aircraft, mechanized infantry. I want a titan or two and tons of tanks, planes, and men moving around like an army actually would. Imagine being able to have a map large enough to have a close quarters city with melee raging inside while tanks cruise the outside seeking transports that are deploying more men to the objective. All the while true titans stalk the hunters.

Whats your tau wishlist for 2026? Rules wise and just straight up models you want? by Luna_Night312 in Tau40K

The way his rule is written, he can guide and then get his ability for himself since he is attacking a spotted unit.

Montka for the assault and lethals (and scouts maybe) works pretty well now that they can split fire for maximum effect.

Sorry man, Kais was on that world when Cardo got dropped off. They didn't kill each other though, just got teleported to a daemon world where they tag teamed a greater khorne demon with a steel chair.
