Partial Tau mechanized army + Lots of Battle suits

You're wrong Paxter. My Flying Circus only lost in the Force Recon was to Eldar. Firepower kills FMC.

Agreed.

Still kinda feel its quite tough, vs this in your face armies I tend to need the luck from my dice rolls in that two critical turn one n two. Fail that I am in for a world of hurt

Take Eldar psyker for the guide and prescience.. Scary

Was thinking bout it but I kinda am a Tau supremacist... even my kroot serve only to die for the greater good.

Then isnt it better when Eldar are the ones who died for the greater good hahaha..

lol but they the ultimate lansi cannot

I am thinking of adding them tho, I do have a number of Eldar models I can use for my allies ^^

Had a game vs carl today, for the coming spartan tourney, the list I am close to bringing basically ta him in turn 2. Lost 4 firewarriors and a hammerhead which I forgot to move away in my turn 2 so he manage to charge that one.

Some key events the gunline foot tau I have been playing, were brutal 36 s5 shots at 15" and 24 shots at 30" from one unit of warriors were enough to table units, the spartan list had basicallly 4 ion cannons 2 on the riptides and 2 on the hammerheads and one rail hammerhead.

The hammerheads did ok but not great now I am thinking of dropping all three tanks for the return of my good old broadsides. And two squads of criss suits for anti tank anti TEQ duty!

hahaha.. no running from that joo. Well im not suprise if pax army is capable on taking most army by turn 3. turn 2.. some army.

Wei pax your tau damn nasty wei. See now everyone blames vuel for creating one monster already...

Actually they do the two broadsides have vtrackers and one has a target lock

No la vuels version has a commander with a pure tide chip joining the broadsides, so they get tank hunter/monster hunter. That way vs things like DP you reroll hits reroll wounds/ reroll pen

darn that nasty wei.

yea... but 1500 commander is a bit mahal lah...
