Thanks for the tournament recap. Jail lists are strong. Having more deepstrike and reserve to threaten their backfield switch the line of scrimmage. Plus your lack of cheap trading pieces means it's hard to distract them. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for Kauyon.
Seems switching to Kauyon is a very wise choice. Feels like GW saw the way 'Jail' lists were dominating the meta and chose to make an entire faction/ detachment purposefully designed to punish that kind of list. I'm seeing lots of people use the holo field projector Enhancement &/or kroot shaper shenanigans to put tons of infiltrating units into the mid board to deny the opponent's infiltrators, then either teleport those units back to safety before the game begins via that Enhancement/ Shaper shenanigans -or purposfully keep some sacrificial kroot out in no-mams-land to move-block the wolves and force 'em to waste a turn charging and shooting trash chaff mob screens. That playstyle lets you actually score some Primary points early, and it's great when you power up and absolutely decimate them when they finally get to the mid-board/ past your hounds and move blockers. 🙂
This is exactly the strategy I am looking at now as well. Had a chance to speak with gentleman from the xenos petting zoo team this weekend who gave me the 411 on how to jail the jailers.
Hi, I like the colour combination you are using. I am considering Tau as my second army but I don't like the typical white. Can you advice what colours you used?
I went 1-3 this week with a similar enough list, but my highlight was killing 2 armigers and a knight in one single shooting phase. Montka lethals can go hard. I'm still not enjoying throwing breachers at stuff and then losing them next turn though

Basalt Grey, Neutral and Sky Grey highlight, Scarlett for the orange/red all Vallejo paints.

Please fix the audio at the beginning, your start is extremely loud, while the normal speaking volume is low.
New intro scene coming for all videos in the future.
