I would love to see a rematch, solely because I love watching Nick play.

When a pro player has problems remembering rules like that, I think it supports the position that there are too many special/unique rules

NOTHING WILL STAND IN THE WAY OF THE GREATER GOOD! Not even the rules of the game. -Tau Nick 2024

[@Waaagghhh]

I will say, having been blessed by being invited to play on the channel a few times in the past as a guest, that being in a battle report is a totally incredibly challenging experience! Your not just playing a game, but your pausing, your having to move models twice or sometimes more for various camera shots, there's bright lights, your having to talk out what's going on, your being mindful of the cameras, AND ON TOP OF THAT YOUR playing a game and having amazing fun with the other person, and anyone else in the studio so I have a lot of compassion for ANYONE who does appear in bat reps and forget rules, especially these lads! most of us have a solid luxury of ONLY playing 1-2 armies, these guys are playing not only all kinds of armies, but all kinds of games, and I think it's great they even remember their own names, and each other's names, let alone rules! HAVING SAID THAT JUSTICE FOR TAK!! We want a rematch! AND I will also say that I have had the pleasure of playing Nick at events, and he is a bloody good player! His Tau famously beat my Imperial Knights at a tournament, putting a crushing end to my unbeaten streak at events! His Rohan have also done amazing things on the tabletops of Middle Earth at events too Vengeance will be mine one day!

[@Demigodish4o3]

I appreciate yall for being upfront about the player errors. These ones were definitely game-changing, but it was still a fun game to watch.

Tak deserves a round of applause, even with the Broadside mishap he held on tight and did a damn fine job

[@PlayOnTabletop]

He did fantastic. He does indeed

[@damonvi013]

Broadsides USED to be twin-linked, but that added attack and removal of TL was a strange change they did across the board with Tau.

[@Reqqles]

well not quite across the board... that tiger shark went from a mighty 4 shots with the heavy rail cannons to just 1 twin-linked shot that still natively hits on a 4+ :x

[@thatepicwizardguy]

TBH I'm surprised you guys don't screw up rules more when the game has SO many plates to spin constantly. It's like MTG in that way... you basically can't find a magic channel that doesn't make huge misplays at least once in a while so this was all very reasonable as far as screwups go. Always fun to watch

[@PlayOnTabletop]

We do our best to make sure that not only are we putting out good entertaining content but also making sure we're on top of the rules as best as we can. Sometimes rules can slip by us sometimes and this was unfortunately one of those cases that we missed out on some big rules oopses at the time of filming. Glad you had fun watching!

[@DoomedVisionary]

Man, I'd love to see some of that 'week of painting' that Tak and group did. He always does such great, fast, armies!

To be fair, Tau Broadside weapons are literally double barrel railguns or two rocket launcher gauntlets.

I have had good games with Cohort Cybernetica, Conqueror Imperative works wonders with the robots. Advance and flamer, then hit with the twin fists on 3+ with an extra AP from the following vanguard. Also, using the protocols from the data-smiths is important, +2 attacks to ranged or melee is huge.

[@jayhill4915]

Really really enjoyed this one, I love all of your videos ofc, but I love that you guys tend to show love and do battle reports with lesser played factions like Kroot and Deathwatch as there is usually so little content for them online (I think this is one of 3 kroot battle reports, 2 of which are from you guys). ofc I know you guys can't just play the same armies all the time and I love the variance you guys bring in terms of match ups, but would LOVE to see more Kroot in the future! Great Pain jobs BTW to Tak and the team too, the Admech look great ^-^ (And on the rules mis-hap, it happens, especially with stuff like the infiltrate when there's so many units all with similar but not identical keywords, and the broadsides where their abilities have changed through editions, if anything, showing that and being so transparent fosters a better community attitude to mistakes and accountability.)
