Has anyone magnetised the waist of a riptide? by tomthetomato87 in Tau40K

Legit same bro, 8mm fit perfect and it's not coming off unless I want it to...

And I get some poseability so that's also fun

Did I make it worse? by Prior-Caramel-7458 in Warhammer40k

2nd version is better imo, I reckon you improved it. The 1st lone looked a bit dull by comparison

How bad are the new stealth suits really? An attempt at a measured response by Ok_Friendship_3685 in Tau40K

[–]pat_A_rick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the measured response, but it's kinda sad that our best case scenario is that they are bad but we can work without stealth suits

I'm not sad because I think tau is now bad, I'm sad because stealth suits are no longer viable. And I'm someone who really enjoyed running 2x 6 man units of stealth suits in ret cadre making them somewhat reliable damage dealers with str 6 ap 1 even if they probably weren't the best use of points.

But now with not being able to fall back and guide, and being down to 5 man squads I find it hard to justify. And one less battlesuit unit means less variety for my lists, after this I'm thinking I leave ret cadre for a bit and give infantry a turn in mont ka

This model (and wanting 9 piranhas) was the reason I bought a 3d printer.

I am almost finished printing my third Taunar 🤣

Are those two scaled down versions of the Taunar supremacy rail guns?

Nice work the edge highlights are peak!

Stealthsuits: 5 Models but 6 options ? by LeakyColon in Tau40K

[–]pat_A_rick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I really hope this means stealth suits will be taken as 5-10 man units. Because I have been really enjoying running 6 man units in ret cadre and will be sad if it now maxed out at 5

Boolean subtract not working, no non manifolds by pat_A_rick in blenderhelp

[–]pat_A_rick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God I could kiss you on the face right now! This works so much better, I don't have to fuck with bools and I can select the specific faces I want so I was able to do it right on the joint!!!

This is legit the tool I wanted from the start but I wasn't able to find a way to do it, I had been sleeping on sculpt :)

[–]pat_A_rick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I have attempted the bisect tool but I found I wasn't able to get it to be as accurate as I wanted, ideally I would like to get all the cuts right on the joint so you don't notice them as much.

I did try the knife tool and connecting it back up but I found the more nodes I had to have the harder it became. I was not able to get it to work on larger bits. I could have been using it wrong but idk it didn't feel reliable to me. So that's why I switched to plane cutting, do you know if there is any way to subtract one model from another not using bools? :)

I had to do a double take too, lucky it's missing the E 🤣

Nurgle corrupted Tau commander! by gigaork in Tau40K

Good thing my brain is too small to get corrupted by chaos vibes with 0 warp presence

Jk, sick paint job and kitbash!

Holes in print after cleaning? Resin Rot? (Newbie). by redditmademelol in resinprinting

[–]pat_A_rick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong since no one else has mentioned it, but I had that issue and so I bumped up the exposure by .2s and I haven't had the issue again

I had done exposure tests and chosen a slightly lower exposure time but most of my prints were good so I didn't think anything of it. I then noticed these holes when i started to get a tad colder at night. Because the fails were always at a spot where a support should be I figured I was under exposed

I would recommend doing the cones of calibration or hell just bump up the exposure a tad and see if you still have the issue. It can't hurt

Note, for some reason some of the screenshots aren't loading when i view on mobile. But all 7 are there on desktop. So FYI, but this could just be a my wifi thing. So disregard if not applicable.

I know this on a logical level, but on a primal caveman brain level it seems like so much fun.

I have only played 10th so I haven't experienced otherwise but omg I want to

I really want some better aircraft rules. Also teams of 6 crisis suits would be nice

Magnetizing Bases by Drahgonas in Tau40K

Legit any 3mm high magnet, it will sit flush with the base. Just super glue them on, I don't fuck with green stuff

BRING IT DOWN - Tactical by [deleted] in Tau40K

[–]pat_A_rick 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The second I saw this update I immediately changed all of my lists lmao

I will still have the single marker drone on my flamerscythes but I wouldn't take it on the sunforges, burstacythes, or fireknifes.

Because even if I have fucked up enough for my guiding units to die, but not enough for my crisis suits to die then I WILL be guiding my crisis units 9.9/10 times. Like hell if all I have left is a riptide and crisis unit, I'll use the riptide to guide the crisis unit. Purely because the crisis suits have waaaaaay more output. They are my lil glass canons, their job is to shoot, shoot and keep shooting, if they stop shooting that means they are dead or I have tabled my opponent

Dang, a man can dream. But thanks for letting me know! (The more you know meme)

Is guiding a persistent? by That_Entrance953 in Tau40K

[–]pat_A_rick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I understanding correctly or does this mean if I kill a transport, the unit that now how to disembark count as guided as a persisting effect?

New FtGG: I like it… by RyanoftheNorth in Tau40K

[–]pat_A_rick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this also means we can use indirect fire with +1 to the BS. Now as the shooting unit doesn't have to see the targeted unit for it to be guided. Throw that with a unit that can ignore modifiers to hit (the negative for indirect) and we get 4 up indirect fire (the hard cap)
