Tau Tactica: a 6th edition

[Rudog]

kroot gun is 48" and is basically a rapid fire Autocannon which is good.

True, but still just 1 shot each at a poor (and unimproveable) BS. And it's not like Krootox Riders are cheap (equivilant of 5 kroot).

Unless... has it been confirmed yet if rapid fire double tap is still 12" or half max distance? I'm assuming it's still 12", but if not... a 24" double tap high strength weapon? Might be worth it.

Aye, well Im doing several videos on 6th edition over the weekend, changes between 5th and 6th and how my two armies BT and Tau might change. Ill discuss krootox then.

Ok stealth suits got stealth and shrouding, but no AA for poor Tau, flyers are going to screw us up

[Tynskel]

Yeah, uh, skyray! Why you no have sky fire... Considering the original concept in IA:3 was AA tank...

[Tynskel]

What Tau need is Good GW stuff, not good FW stuff. I want stuff I can use in tournaments and against all players. not stuff with permission.

You don't need permission.

[gcsmith]

No skyfire, but at least stealthsuits are actually decent to use now, a character with fusion blaster and +3 to their cover save... nice


To be honest farsight leading a 7 man shas'vre unit will be a pain to kill especially with drones. MWAHAHAHA

Just want to put this video out there [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncR1-q7HKk8&feature=youtu.be[/url]
When its uploaded, As I talk about changes to movement.

Your link doesn't work.

Cheers, and [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncR1-q7HKk8&feature=youtu.be[/url] is correct link.

Shame Target lock is removed, thats the point of rail rifles. They only had to make it give the model split fire.

But it doesn't make sense, one of the unique things about Tau was being able to split fire.

BTW also have an unboxing vid here, not that anyone is interested, [url]www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3pp-w-6EtI[/url]

Will do some Tau related vids after I finish the basic videos, one for shooting and Assault to go. And I would like questions I could answer related to Tau as well.

[Tynskel]

yeah, I don't know why they did that. It was good for their tanks.

Also it will make broadside worse, crisis suits worse. Farsight Super Squads will suck.

So, no AA on the AA Tank, and no Target Lock.
Here's my unboxing video: [url]http://tinyurl.com/427n7hx[/url]
