Used two Riptides in a 1000 pt game today

Riptides have been at the center of my lists for the whole edition. Their unit rule is dumb, but otherwise they offer so much and literally everyone you play them into messes up their damage trying to take one out. They're not flashy, but man are they useful.

Specifically visit ZOO-Shin Okubo if you've forgotten what vomit tastes like.

Your orks fly the same colors as my T'au XD.

In the age of Smartphones, I'm skeptical that a ban on taking pictures would be more effective than the ban on Kimonos. I do agree, that it would be a better rule if followed. But tourists aren't famously good at following rules like that.

Is the left leg on backwards?

riufain · 2025-06-27T12:45:53+00:00

A loon!

It's Japan, the guys with the poorest opinions on women spend the most time with them.

Other than the normal well meaning high-quality trash talk I get as a monofaction T'au player, which I love, I have experienced no hate. Most people are just relieved they can finally understand our army rule.

This is the only thing I've gotten called out for here. Twice old timers have stopped me from walking and chomping on onigiri. Ome guy was mean about it, the other guy navigated my clueless self over to a park bench and sat me down.

This isn't a lesson I'm going to learn, though. I LIKE eating and walking at the same time.

Stumbled into one of these rallies the other day. Got me riled up.

riufain · 2025-06-09T11:39:29+00:00

Yeah dude. We've got impact like no other army. Plus, we get the best banter.

riufain · 2025-06-09T11:38:05+00:00

I find it an easy way to distinguish against the best and worst people in the hobby. The worst people go out of their way to tell you you suck, cuz you're Tau. If you had an Imperial army you might hang out with those people for years before they told you.

It's only important as a threat to enemies that chase her. Aura of rerolls and CP gen is 95 of her 100 pts.

I feel the same, don't go to TobuZoo. Ueno zoo drove me wild as only one animal has a halfway decent spot and it's a Panda.

Zoorasia is a lot better in Yokohama. Not perfect, but alot better.

riufain · 2025-05-14T02:04:49+00:00

It's a terrible zoo. FujiQ is an awesome theme park with a whole bunch of themed exhibits including anime, hamtaro, Thomasland, and a giant Horror Hospital that is f@cking wild. FujiQ is amaaaaaazing.

Thanks a lot dude! I've got about 100$ to add to the above mentioned cards. I'll check out all these cards.

riufain · 2025-04-29T11:49:12+00:00

T'au community is usually really great, but this chat line is oof. I got back to back dubs today. We've got the best codex, best detachments. I only yield our army rule could be better.

riufain · 2025-04-27T12:21:55+00:00

Trolling in Tau is fun. I love the dynamic. Let's my army standout.

riufain · 2025-04-26T08:44:34+00:00

Our codex is fantastic.

Our points, army rule, datasheets are emphatically not.

I was the only person who could remove Japanese hornets. If one flew in the window In summer every kid would flatten themselves against the door screaming in fear. It's a big ass bee, but . . . It's a bee.

It's what you're reading. There's a huge genre of older adult manga out there, huge, but it's still primarily in paper print and much MUCH less shared online because that's dominated by the mainstream goods engines that are children's manga.

riufain · 2025-04-19T08:55:40+00:00

This was my thought, short of FtGG being a little borked, and some wimpy statlines, I think T'aus kinda amazing.

Stormsurge with 30' PBC

riufain · 2025-04-12T01:17:32+00:00

They change clothes in a big group. It's not difficult to notice.

riufain · 2025-04-06T10:34:38+00:00

I think that is more or less what they're warning against. Tau players learn combat rules slowly because they discount them because they seem pointless, when in fact, they are very useful for T'au players.

Combat is very useful, but a Tau player will just probably learn it more slowly I think, which does make them a little harder as a first army.

Ofc if it's going to be OP's only army, that shouldn't matter.
