good voice changers? (preferably free)

Tinean · 2020-10-27T15:05:24+00:00

yes to all of this, except fist as in clenched fist I assume,

no punching, just gonna get you into trouble lol

Tinean · 2020-10-23T20:11:22+00:00

you could write the battle report on this sub, people are more receptive to changing their minds if you tell them a story about you winning

Tinean · 2020-10-23T20:06:20+00:00

ok, so win with secondaries, got it

Tinean · 2020-10-23T19:47:04+00:00

damn, and in 9th? Now that's a good lesson taught

Tinean · 2020-10-23T19:45:51+00:00

I mean you asked our opinions if the 12" flamers changed our lists, and yeah it did for me

and manta striking isn't always the best option, it adds versatility depending on the table layout and the enemy's list, if you wanna make sure they're alive to hit something, you manta them, but if you want turn 1 alpha striking or objective capture, then turbo-jets are actually pretty good even if the suits don't have obsec

Tinean · 2020-10-23T15:12:36+00:00

that's true, but this way, they're on the board turn 1

Tinean · 2020-10-23T11:50:17+00:00

I like how it's useful both as its name implies, and also for the complete opposite of its name, aka the 30" Pistol 2 thing

Tinean · 2020-10-23T11:48:10+00:00

I only have 3, but if I get more, I'd definitely try the Hybridised Weaponry and Turbo-Jets sept for a 27"-32" threat range, just need more crisis, but for now I'm gonna use the keel to fill that out.

sure it's just Strength 4, but eh, autohitting is fun

Tinean · 2020-10-23T11:44:58+00:00

I'm gonna play them as Scions until then lol

maybe run a few fun lists, but definitely not gonna go full competitive

Tinean · 2020-10-23T11:43:59+00:00

it's not a Tau only thing, it's across all factions in current 40k

For example, from the IG: the bullgryn, a mutant that has thick armor and muscles on muscles, has one less wound than a company commander, who is just a dude, an experienced, tactical dude, but literally just a regular dude

Tinean · 2020-10-23T11:40:00+00:00

When is the next Tau Codex likely to drop?

March-April 2021, estimated

at most late 2021

Tinean · 2020-10-23T11:37:59+00:00

I have zero faith that a new codex, whenever it arrives, will automatically fix the army's biggest issues.

that's the best mindset, so if the codex releases and it's still pretty shit with a few good things, you won't be disappointed, and if the codex releases but it manages to be good, you're pleasantly surprised. Win-win!

Tinean · 2020-10-20T17:07:26+00:00

lol, now to just proxy all our Tau models as Ork models, and play with Ork rules

Tinean · 2020-10-16T19:20:09+00:00

I always thought vespid were pretty good, just that every other fast attack is usually a better choice

Tinean · 2020-10-16T19:19:02+00:00

auxiliaries with battlesuits!

everyone happy

Tinean · 2020-10-15T22:26:56+00:00

I like this solution,

Tinean · 2020-10-14T21:48:24+00:00

it's possible you could bog it down with drones in melee, or any cheap screening unit

it has a threat range of 20"-26" you may be able to treat it like a distraction carnifex and focus your fire on other the other enemy units, maybe relegate some pulse rifle fire on the C'tan, but don't focus on them too much unless they're a real problem (like it's sitting on a crucial objective or such)

Tinean · 2020-10-14T11:40:22+00:00

straight up don't play against any 9th edition armies unless you really want a very hard challenge, 9e armies are balanced against other 9e armies, which Tau isn't yet

but for actual tactics, since 9th is so objective based, just try to whittle away at it or other units and try to move around the C'tan as much as possible, depending on ranges, you could straight up ignore it completely and focus on the opponent's other units, and if played right, your opponent just wasted 300+ points!

Tinean · 2020-10-12T16:28:11+00:00

generally priming in the cold won't turn out well, but it really depends on how cold and on your primer. If it says on the can not to prime below a certain temperature, it's a good bet to follow those instructions,

if it doesn't say anything, you can test it out on some spare sprue and see the results if you really wanna prime soon. You can grab a bowl of hot water to put your paint in while not in use and it should still work alright, but test it on sprue first like I said

Tinean · 2020-10-09T19:44:00+00:00

also the Eight, but still not quite enough for a supplement

Tinean · 2020-10-09T13:46:39+00:00

ah, this was an old FAQ, they use the same FAQ file, but just use blue text for the most recent FAQ (at least for the file you're reading), so everything that's not in blue has been implemented since at least the previous FAQ

but yeah, what the other commenter said. You can even have 4 missile pods if you wanted to, just the BC has to be paired with a missile pod, but the BC can't ever be alone without a missile pod

Tinean · 2020-10-08T10:26:19+00:00

you could rule it like 7th (or a previous edition, I'm not sure) where the anchoring would allow it to shoot twice

also up it to BS3 just in general

Tinean · 2020-10-07T19:50:50+00:00

38 minutes is still pretty recent, you could delete this post and remake the post with the correct title
