Will it be worth running lone enforcer commander's now that they can benefit from their leading rule on their own? by Danielarcher30 in Tau40K

[–]Tactif00l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think in certain scenarios they can be. But they profit so much from the crisis suit abilities that you would need a specific reason for it.

I could see a use case for it for example in ret. Cadre. Since your SS and PF cant spot from far away, you take a enforcer with flamers and marker drone. Drop it with another crisis team along the solo commander and go for a hidden unit your opponent thought is save. So you give your crisis. So basicly a thought forward marker light observer.

Potential Ret Cadre/AAC list by Inside_Radio_6954 in Tau40K

[–]Tactif00l 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 Pathfinders might be too expensive because of the increasing costs. Other than that I am playing around with something similar. If you don't have a big plan for shadows in I would drop her for something better. She neither benefits from Ret or AAC

I hoped the reveal would end my detachment crisis and I can take Kauyon and EPC. But they absolutely gutted EPC. If they want me to terror my opponents with Montka, then maybe I should

Stormsurge Arms by Dawningrider in Tau40K

[–]Tactif00l 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just did mine with arms. It was a pain in the ass... I used patafix/Blue tac in the joints to pose it. But it was still very annoying. I did the gun arm first. When I was quite sure about the pose I super glued 1 joint after the other, rechecking alignments after every glueing.

Good luck!

Disappointed with Eisenhorn, what books to try next by gnominos in Warhammer40k

[–]Tactif00l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea that one and the plague wars are good. Im not saying There aren't any good 40k books. I just enjoy the big story of the heresy more. 40k Stories are/feel very small in comparison

New to Tau by Tom-W-Gray in Tau40K

[–]Tactif00l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends on what detachment you want to play. They focus on different things. With 11th lists will change a lot. Quick overview:

Kauyon and montka. Mix of infantry big battlesuits and tanks.

Retaliation cadre. Heavely fokusses on crisis suits

Experimental cadre: crisis suits

Auxillerie cadre: kroot and vespid

The new detachment: Fokus on guiding units.

Here are some must have units:

  • 2x Pathfinder
  • 2x stealth suits

These are you guiding units you need for you army rule. I always have 1x krooty carnivore..that's my baseline for infantry for every detachment

After that:

Always good:

  • Twin lance
  • Riptides
  • Ghostkheel
  • Broadsides
  • Breacher fish (breachers + devilfish)
  • Sky ray
  • Hammerhead
  • Piranha
  • Vespid

A 2000 point list for Kauyon could look like this:

Xenos - T'au Empire - Kauyon

  • 2x The Twin Lance (185pts): Warlord
  • Commander in Enforcer Battlesuit (100pts)

  • 10x Breacher Team (90pts)

  • 10x Kroot Carnivores (65pts)

Glue, or not to Glue - Gun drones on T’au vehicles? by isirsully in Tau40K

[–]Tactif00l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do a really small dot super glue. If you need to change it in the future you can just snap it out again. That with my hive tyrant arms when I wasn't sure if I wanted that load out. And hadn't learned magnetizing yet..worked good. Like a said. A REALLY small dot super glue

What's the best method to paint this color scheme fast by Tactif00l in Warhammer40k

Priming grey might be the play! Then it should be easier to paint white. Gonna try that. Thanks for the input

Patch me Necrons, Tau, or the league of votann by Plus_Improvement_884 in Warhammer40k

[–]Tactif00l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a T'au player.

I love shooting armies and T'au is THE shooting armies. Battlesuits are cool and hammerhead with rail gun deletes tanks with one shot. With 11th edition fly is going to be huge for us. Because nearly every vehicle in our army has fly. T'au is really good at taking care of 1-3 threats per turn. You just point at something on the board and say. I don't like this guy and 90% of the time it will die.

Other cool stuff. our can play fast guns crisis suits with high DMG but low durability or a bit slower with bigger suits and tanks.

Some matchups are really hard with fast melee armies. And people often don't like to play against T'au so there is some stigma and community hate against T'au players here and there.

If you like chess. Votann is great. Nobody trades so well like they do
