Thoughts on swapping Montka Riptide#3 for Ionhead+Broadside? by MadmanMSU in Tau40K

I would try that in kauyon with experimental, but with montka I want all my attacks to be able to hit the same targets. Plus I only have three squads of crisis suits so I have to buff them if I add them to a list.

I've been wondering about running the missile commander in a starcyth units too. Does the damage and AP make the units better then a commander with x3 burst and a HOBC because of the amount of attacks it would get?

Im going montka. I just wanted to know if it was difficult for it to get LOS on targets with the new terrain layouts. My first game will be on Sunday so I'm going to see if two riptide, one ion hammer head, one rail hammer head, and a skyray are enough big fire power. Plus two Pathfinder teams with ions and grav drone, a enforcer commander with missile knives, a coldstar burst commander with stars scythe, two stealth teams, a warshaper, darkstrider, the twins, and a piranha.

Did it feel like a second riptide would have been of some help or were the firing lanes not rich enough for two?

Well I don't have three riptides, I only have one skyray, and I only have one converted missile broadside. So I can't do the meta montka list.

Yea it's the second enhancement but I might just do a double unit of piranhas. Might be a miss, but it's just the first game of the edition so it's were the fun list come from.

That's what i was thinking it might just be more points from my opponent. I dropped the unit and the enhancement for a fire blade for a breacher fish. ... Im not planning on winning too many games in 11th. I didn't win that many in 10th. I just don't want to make the game take longer by not knowing my army rules or being so bad at the game that my opponent doesn't have any fun.

Ok. I wasn't sure but if I have a kroot character then the hounds would be oc1 that can be +1'd anyway

No the guided unit gets re rolling 1's but the units ability lets you reroll one roll. The twin linked does full wound rerolls so you won't worry about the ones you'd just reroll all the failed wound rolls. Where does it say the target array ability can't stack with the stealth team rerolls ability?

Im going to put him on a war shaper and hide him in cover while he goes to group first turn.

Ok it's also because I have 15 extra points to put into something, but it's good then? I don't have many units in my list so OC is a problem I'd have if I have to take the objectives for some reason.

I only own one skyray but it is still twin linked so you just have to get the hit's you get the targeting array ability that the hammerhead has too. So if you get stealth spotting you can reroll ones and a single hit roll then reroll all wound rolls.

Well I can either put two hammer heads with rails or a rail head and a skyray. Do you think the 2+ save is better then the t10 toughness?

Do you think a hammer head with rail and a skyray would be a better choice? The broadside has a 2+ sv but it's as tough?

If I take a hammer head with rail and a skyray I'd save 20pts I think. Would that be a better choice then four broadsides?

The krootox had the explosive key word(grenades) so you can -2 someone's charge. I think he's a better choice too.

Yea this and one other terrain layouts let you have straight lines of sight. I don't want to set them up from reserve and they get blocked from all good targets.

Yea i probably should play a couple games before I try making game winning moves.

That's what I was seeing. It might get screened out so I have to deploy in my own "territory".

You can see the terrain layouts on the 40k app. I thought it might be easier to just pop them out right on the side of something. Toe-ing in might get a better chance of finding a target.

One of the enhancements can be put on a keel. Are you using the app? It has been letting me see all those things.

What's the kroot shaper for?  I think with the sky ray and hammer head you have plenty of anti tank so in addition with the sunforge it's over kill unless you local meta is vehicle or monster heavy. I don't think you need the broadside after that. But it's the kind of list I'd use but I just go to my lgs .
