The Storm Speeders definitely need to go down in points, but frankly I don't think the Invader ATV or Outriders can be solved with points alone; they need some kind of rules boost. The extra attacks on the charge that the Outriders used to get would do the job, even if they go back up in points again.

Now hear me out! For fun I’ve been building tactical squads, but comparing them to bladeguard I must be missing something because on paper when you add a librarian to the tactical squad VS a naked full BGV it seems remarkably equal with the tactical squads coming out on top in a number of ways. 220pts for 11 models vs 180 points for 9 (20 points a model each) Both have t4 with a 4++ but tacticals have a 4+ fnp vs psychics 24 w vs 18 w Melee, BGV have an advantage, but shooting tacticals easily wins out. OC 21 vs OC 6 If we want to allow a BGV a character a number of these stats still don’t swing and for the same price you can buy a Rhino for the squad to sit on an objective. Why won’t it work! 😂

I got 6 boxes of Reivers when they came out. They had a decent profile on their pistols with AP -2. My problem then was their combat Knives gave an extra attack. They should have had at least AP -1 instead. Incursors, a dedicated shooting unit, with Paired Knives got AP -1. I feel those profiles should have been reversed, imo. Now in 10th, they got WORSE?! Their pistols are AP -1, but gained Precision and their Combat Knives still have no AP, but also gained Precision. I've since slowly converted all those models into either Death Company, cause those helms look sick after for DC, or scouts.

Shocked with the cadre fireblade comments. When added to a breacher squad with a guardian and gun drone he increases the shots from 22 to 42 (when he is equipped with 2 gun drones). Cadre fireblade with breachers in devilfishes have become even more useful in the codex now that the volume of firepower from triple cyclic ion blaster crisis suits have gone (and starscythes are a very poor alternative, useable but not on the same tier as the old triple cyclic crisis even ignoring the overcharge profile). Overall I thought your suggested list was quite good and was a nicely balanced list. It's likely the points come down quite a bit in a few days when we get the codex release mfm points update. With many existing units likely to go down to the last mfm points rather the codex points which are the same as the points at the start of 10th edition, eg. Breachers and pathfinders likely to come down to 90 from the codex 120. Still best to use codex points for the moment as that's all we're got. Fast melee armies are always an issue for Tau. The best solution is cheap kroot carnivores and hound screens combined with deepstrike / reserves so the assault army can't charge your whole army in your deployment zone turn 2.
@3GrotsАй бұрын
50pts for 20 shots just doesn't feel worth it to me, I like keeping breachers cheap - they die to a stiff breeze so I tend to only get one or two rounds of shooting out of them - and just running more squads - especially in devilfish for that nasty fish of Fury on objectives - kroot are very good right now, it's going to be very interesting what their points come out at - Tony

Favorite Weapon: Dakka! And more Dakka! Favorite Mech: Victor, Jagermech Steiner = Teutonic Mercantile Knights...IN Der SPACE! Their atrocities are their generals, which three actually have combat(paintball matches count as combat) experience. At least they roll Commando. There is nothing as liberating as scouting in an Atlas while not wearing under trousers. Favorite Weapon: Assault Mechs. Favorite Mech: 100 tons Liao = Space Commies for the People's Republic of the Capellan Confederation. Atrocity??? Then enemy shouldnt have tried to firewall our cyber attack! Each Citizen has no less than three Apparatchiks monitoring them at all times! Thats a commitment to security! What they may lose in territory, they gain in INFORMATION! Favorite Weapon: Electronic Counter Measures. Favorite Mech: Vindicators, Ravens, and anything with advanced Spyware. May or may not have weapons. No the pilot wont flee, they have an explosive device implanted into their crotch that prevents such cowardice. Kurita = Most Honorable Samurai of Space Shogun in Space! You will show respect! For great honor, commit honorable atrocity, which is permitted on their own citizens if there is advantage. Fun Fact: Kuritans may kill their supervisors if it brings gain and honor to the Shogun as long as they do it with a katana. Favorite Weapon: Any mech with a sword that isnt a Medium and/or also has a Dragon tattoo. Favorite Mech: Dragon, Grand Dragon, Samurai Gundam with (metal - not laser)sword Marik = Not sure if Austro-Hungarian -Turk - Indians +/- USA Hussars ...In Space! How DARE you attack my cousin and take his planet's shit! ONLY IM ALLOWED TO ATTACK AND TAKE MY COUSIN'S SHIT!... un-LESS..., say i have an idea - my friend still owes me 3 Cicadas. You pay me 30 Million Cbils and ill help you invade my friends homeworld, all i want is the Cicadas, you keep the rest. Deal?!?!? Favorite Weapon: Lazer Beams.

This is Comstar Customer Service with a friendly reminder to pay your fucking internet bill or we will invade your shit and not let the Spacing Guild transport your trade goods. Nevermind the Bene Gesserit breeding a Blake. Favorite Weapon: Phone Bills. Favorite Mech: white painted ancient advanced mechs with tech Comstar removed....er um, ...tech everyone else forgot. Please take this quick survey on your Comstar experience and we will credit your planet's central bank with a 5 C-Bill coupon! We value your customer loyalty! Periphery = Pirates! In Space! Retched hives of villainy and scum. The Matriarchs of Cannabis are devoted to space tourism of the most extreme decadent kind. Nothing is taboo. Taurians like bulls. Rum runners, scallywags, and frankenmechs. Wealth beyond measure, Oulander. Clans = Space Mongols with far superior robots, steroids, and a tarded honor code. Their champion was named Malthus. Powerful and fearsome right up to the goal line, then they choke and drop the ball. Because some of them bragged they could score without even holding the ball... Wolf = if Davion wasnt Mary Sue enough for you AND you want God Mode Plot Armor. Smoke Jaguars = Atrocity? Huh...we call that maintenance. Jade Falcon = Air Force snobs but in robots. Slave!
