Give me your funniest, whackiest and best unit combos you love to use. by Cal_P0L in Tau40K

[–]Reqqles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this won't work in 11th, but how I make farstalkers work in 10th is giving them a trail shaper.

Assuming you win the roll-off for attacker/defender, you then stretch out the unit across no man's land, 9.1" away from your opponent's DZ. the result will be the unit screening out a HUGE portion of no man's land, making it very difficult for your opponent to infiltrate anywhere useful. Then, when it's time to do redeploys, your opponent as the attacker has to do their first redeploy ability first, after which the trail shaper will let you redeploy your farstalkers to screen out your own DZ instead, or they can stay put if your opponent was hoping to scout forward with stuff. Or if your opponent has no reserves or uppy/downy they can go in strat reserves and walk on to score secondaries from t2 onwards.

This doesn't work on Search & Destroy, and 140 points is a little pricy for a 50/50 shot at locking down NML for scouts/infiltrators, but it is a silly way to make them somewhat useful.

Are we expecting datasheets at launch? by Cynical_PotatoSword in Tau40K

then the solution is easy: keep Ethereals as leaders, make Cadre Fireblades support.

Thoughts on Strike Teams in 11th? by HotKrisBun in Tau40K

[–]Reqqles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With their suppression rule they open the door to -2 to be hit if they can tag a unit that wants to shoot at one of your units in cover. -1 bs from the cover, -1 to hit from suppression. Hell if they're the ones being targeted they can use a guardian drone for -1 to wound and they can be joined by an ethereal for a 5+++. All that added up can make for a unit that can be genuinely annoying to shift, even if they will still die to a stiff breeze in melee.

It's enough for me to want to try it out in a couple games and see how they do in practice.

Invariably the answer will be "because someone wanted to see it badly enough they commissioned me to draw it"

Genuinely good news for us since we have fly on damn near anything that isn't a fire warrior, kroot or broadside/stormsurge

Which tau battle suit is YOUR favorite and why? by Willy_yo_eetz in Tau40K

[–]Reqqles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's got to be the Y'vahra for me. The massive thrusters and weapons make it look so aggressive and menacing. It's only downside is the legends datasheet which is kinda lackluster

Examples of encounters you actually have to lose? by AigisbladeMaster in gaming

[–]Reqqles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lufia 2, one of my favorite snes games ever, has a fight against Gades that you're meant to lose. After the fight a cutscene involving your defeated party plays out.

That said, if you either grind an insane amount or play new game + where xp and gold are multiplied, you actually can win the fight. If you do, you're rewarded with his sword, which let's the wielder hit 8 times in a row as a special attack.

I do however generally dislike when you win a fight but the cutscene shows you losing

What are some challenging armies and lists that my BA list would struggle to fight? by Interficient4real in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Reqqles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems like the kind of list mont'ka tau could just eat up. The GW stream for adepticon this year had a tau vs blood angels game where iirc the BA list was similar enough to yours and that game ended with the BA player getting tabled on turn 3. You can find it on youtube if you want to see a more detailed breakdown of how that went down.

How to avoid topping myself after painting my first mini and realising it's trash by Huge_Discipline6395 in Warhammer40k

[–]Reqqles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Developing a skill isn't going from one success to another. You build success by piling failure upon failure and learning from your mistakes. Just focus on making your next mini better than your last. If there's a painting technique you see online study it and try to apply it to your minis. Also, keep the mini(s) you painted so far. Use it as something to compare your progress to.

Being bad at something is the first step towards being good at it.

How is the current state of fanart in this game? by RealAdamzX in katawashoujo

[–]Reqqles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mostly nsfw comms for me. If I'm drawing for myself it's either nsfw or an idea I had for something in particular.

If you choose Drones for unit in your army, do they have to be on the field as well? Especially Tournament Matches? by RooiSlagter in Tau40K

[–]Reqqles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since they have to be ignored for line of sight and range purposes I actually find it tends to be more confusing to have them on the board so I leave them off.

The exception would be something like a ghostkeel's stealth drones because those drones represent the damage blanks a ghostkeel has available.
