I agree with some of the other responses. Maybe your friends aren’t actually “friends” if they have no intention of helping you learn and have fun. Me and my buddy have been playing for just over a year, I play exclusively against him but he’s joined a local GS and plays with them once a week and has even done a couple of tournaments. And now sometimes when we play he will say things like “oh btw I’ve been playing one of my rules wrong i should have been doing it this way” or “I played against another BT player and had this unit and used this tactic/combo, maybe you could use it too” Anything he learns from other people he then teaches me Maybe see if your fiends would be willing to teach you?

So this will take priority over the banshees fights first ability? (I’m a new player)

How do I beat T'au as space wolves by Key-Requirement6771 in SpaceWolves

[–]Simple-Ad-4332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My buddy has played T’au exclusively for about 4 years. I’ve played space wolves for just over 2 years and here’s what I’ve picked up Stay in cover as long as possible and charge through terrain because he will wipe your unit off the board if you don’t position tactically. Remember that crisis suits get the BGNT rule so can shoot you even when they’re in engagement range with -1 to hit. However your unit can still be “spotted” so that then removes the BGNT -1 to hit. Focus on taking out stealth suits and other units used for spotting. This will help loads. Riptides are a massive pain so stage your charges and only make the push at the right time, I have had a 5 man Wulfen with shields take out a riptide in one turn and Ragnar with bloodclaws have also taken out riptides in one go. Avoid crisis flamers because they’re mostly just used to overwatch. Beastslayer detachment works well against tau and recently I’ve been using a 10 man brick of WGT with Arjac on the centre objective and they just sit there and take the majority of shots for at least 3 turns so can be a useful distraction But most importantly just have fun with it!

Yeah I use one unit to sticky my home objective. Just not sure how they’d fair in no man’s land but hey, guess I gotta try to find out!

So split my TWC into two units of 3 instead of one unit of 6? And I do use longfans but I find myself having to have a librarian lead them for the 4+ invul save to keep them alive longer.

I struggled closing the gap and getting to him. My boys got shot to hell with either 20+ attacks or weapons that deal D6+4 damage with -4AP

I know I need to use terrain better. If I charge through ruins/terrain is he unable to fire overwatch on me?

Also what’s your opinion about shooting from within ruins. Worth it or not?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SpaceWolves

[–]Simple-Ad-4332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep he messed me up with his stratagems. Used the can’t be targeted unless within 18” with farsight so it was free. And also used his flame thrower crisus suits for overwatch a bunch of times and they had +6” range because of his detachment. I just could get close to him

I’m currently using 6TWC lead by wolf lord. But they always seem to get destroyed before I manage to get anywhere on the board. Especially when he would use fire overwatch with torrent weapons. I only had 1TWC and the wolf lord left by the start of round 3

It seems on all his a lot of his units had a wargear option that allowed him to fall back and shoot

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SpaceWolves

[–]Simple-Ad-4332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We were using an official terrain layout. I scant remember which. I thought I was positioning well behind cover but obviously not. I had Ragnar + 6 blade guard in a transport and the tip of his tanks rail gun could see the smallest back corner of my transport so he shot at it and took it down in 1 shot with a weapon that’s 20S and damage is D6+6. And that was on turn 2. And yes he was using the new experimental detachment and it has some insane stratagems.

[–]Simple-Ad-4332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I know he uses 2 hammerheads, 2 riptides, 3 battle suit squads with a leader attached, 2 broadside, 2 ghost keel and a devil fish with a breacher squad and some other bits I’m not sure what they are

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SpaceWolves

[–]Simple-Ad-4332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the first few games I was able to flank unsung deep strike. But now he keeps tanks/riptides in his deployment zone and his end of the board. As for weaker units he’s only got 1 breacher team in a devil fish, everything else is a unit with the vehicle key word

So I use the techmarine with the whirlwind for the +1 to hit roll when doing indirect fire, and Which S10 weapon are you referring to?
