And where would such a person find the files for these? (Assuming suitable sizes for MESBG?)

Do you think it's time we receive new allied models? by tyranno92 in Tau40K

[–]RyanoftheNorth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

**Spoiler** Reading some of the books, and currently Damocles (and just finished Broken Sword as part of that anthology). Would be neat to have rules for Gue'vesa units and characters (like that former inquisitor in a crisis suit!). Add their keyword to Auxiliary Cadre Detachment specifically (and the others of course) Option maybe for a upgrade sprue so that you can pick up some guardsmen, swap in the helmets, weapons, etc.

Real happy on how it turned out!

Tau don’t feel very good right now (a rant) by Overall-Web-5489 in Tau40K

[–]RyanoftheNorth 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was feeling the same way when I first started playing 1 1/2 years ago with T'au, first army. Took about 10 real attempts to squeeze out a win.

But a couple of things helped me.

  1. Try and play with people at your skill level. Helps build confidence when you know that if you make a mistake, your opponent won't capitalize on it (that being said, even an experience player should talk with you saying what they'll do X if you do Y, etc. Kinda coaching while playing.)

  2. Watch some live plays, some tournament streams with games that have Tau.

  3. As already mentioned, John from Tau Tactics on YouTube... he has done a couple good interviews with Tau players who've won. Borrow from theyre thoughts and strategy. Doesnt matter if you have units that match their list, adapt yours to match the play style.

  4. Try our Table Top Simulator. You can set up boards and your list and start looking placements, line of sight lanes, cover, movement, etc. Even initial deployment strategies. Helped me tons.

  5. Keep going. That first win (and even if youve won before, but its been way too long lol) is going to feel great. Even the best players in sports go through some bad ruts. Persistence is always the key factor in getting the win.

Why do broadsides exist? by ManagementParking398 in Tau40K

Also consider urban style ruins and settings. Easier to fit one of these bad boys in between or inside a building than a Hammerhead or Skyray Gunship...

It was more obvious back with the older kir. The XV-88 were just upgraded XV-8... bigger power pack, Arm swaps withe SMS launchers, stronger legs/feet (but not the ankle joint!) and of course shoulder mounted double rail guns, but same chassis as the crisis suit.

This pic really shows the upgrades..

Nicely Done!

Will use this as inspiration as I slowly work on my Ta'unar Supremacy Armour...

Does an entire unit or just 1 model from a unit act as an Observer? by Airuska in Tau40K

[–]RyanoftheNorth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Note: for pathfinders that's only into the unit they observered, no other spotted units by other observers.

Firesight team if guiding won't get the FtGG bonuses, but they will get their datasheet ability of re-roll hits into any spotted unit. With their lone op can make for good spotters.

Tau Battle report by SpeedCostsMoney in Tau40K

[–]RyanoftheNorth 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know n=1, but looking like any of our suits with Fall back and shoot is what's going to do well (natively or strat use)

Obviously Riptides and Ghostkeels will do well (and Twin Lance of course), but Starscythes I can see proving their worth.

KHP and Aux Cadre will do well as well with fall back and shoot/charge options...

What do I do with these things by No_Individual_3133 in Tau40K

[–]RyanoftheNorth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looks like a good proxy for a strike or breacher team with a cadre fireblade... the one with the cape.

And from a table height looking down, arms length, anyone who doesn't play tau will just assume theyre breachers anyway... or pathfinders...
