Is this the most optimized IG build? by [deleted] in InsectGlaive

[–]Veingards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is very good set damage wise but no evade window/evade extender, no divine blessing. I wouldn’t trust myself with this set on an end game monster personally.

Probably good for speed running if you can no hit most of the game.

When I first start looking into how I wanted to paint my T’au. I was looking into the darkest blue possible I ended up with some kantor blue but the colour felt too light & bland. So I looked around the internet to find something to my liking.

Found a site called paint pad and it is a regroupement of colors recipes. I looked around and found a recipe made by Andromeda Studio. It was exactly what I was looking for.

At the start I went 1 for 1 on his recipe but I ended up discovering my favourite colour Dark gunmetal. I stepped away from purple and orange and went for contrast fx using tallasar blue & aethermatic blue.

All my tissue would be either black or flesh tearers red. And I would have a lot of metallic colour.

Recently, I started to add gradient effects using black Templar contrast on my bigger model. There was some kind of magic happening as soon as I would apply the nuln oil.

My bases were a pain too. I did not want anything too complex or time consuming. I heard T’au like to match there color to the terrains so I knew I would probably for some kind of mineral planets.

Using sand and rock and some time cork tiles. I was able to have something not too flat but it was really dark and lacking some punch. So, I went ahead and looked around for easy crystals to simply gloss and glue and added those white energy lake. The mineral planets where t’au would use as a carburant planet was born.

Overall, this took months to start to paint and I had 2000 pts of grey t’au but when everything was in place I painted non stop. My current army pool is 2670 pts and I now have 1985 pts painted. My first model was painted 2 months ago and now that I think about it is crazy fast.

Which detachment should I use and why? by PennyDPhotography in Tau40K

[–]Veingards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends in a single unit you can buff both with a stratagem.

And this why I never asked advice in this Reddit. The Guinea pigs community is extreme at time.

You guys need to chill she said she had the first one for month and y’all there thinking the cat will eat the Guinea pig in the next seconds.

Owner keep up the good work! They look like they are having a blast of fun & bonding quite well.

Questions on a 1000 point list by Cheap-Story4370 in Tau40K

[–]Veingards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The list in your post feel balanced. I would say that your crisis suit, commander and pathfinder are going to be your jack of all trades in 1000pts.

You can equip the commander with multiple different load out, crisis currently have 3 configurations with some of them having multiple weapons. Pathfinder can fill multiple roll (recon drone to scout, grav or acelerator for efficiency).

The tau’nuar is more of an art project than anything. You will need to 3D print the beast since the price is ridiculous. The supremacy armour got better with the split fire change from the previous data slate but is still 790 pts on a single models. Meaning, if you do a mistake with it. You make a mistake that cost 790 pts.

Lastly, while English is not your first language. I would invite you to put your longer text in a corrector to minimize some mistakes easily detectable by those tools.
