      I can attest to this comment due to my friend and roommate commented on how fighting my Tau Army was not fun to play against after my 2 wins after losing to him to every game I played against him. I am significantly less experienced in playing 40k compared to him but after I learned how to play Tau and won my games, he stopped being interested to play against my specific list XD aka I need to be more casual or "handicap" myself if he kindly wants to play more.

    I love Tau, first army I ever picked up. Something about Gundam like battle suits is really nice. Personally I prefer Farsight, the extra commander per detachment is just so helpful, now I don't have to bring more units for another commander. Trip-tide lists are fun too, and with the new 9th edition rules regarding monsters and vehicles its gonna be even more deadly.

    The tier list for the most part is rather on point, except for one (or two) units.
    Crisis Suits.
    Crisis Suits are very arguably a tier-5 unit when put into Farsight Enclaves, due to how many buffs they can acquire. A jump to BS3+ is gigantic in an army that is balanced for the potential for all of their units to gain that through Markerlights, where you can just pay 2 CP to get that for free, through the whole game.
    Second, Bodyguards are arguably well worth the 3 additional points per suit, as within Farsight Enclaves, the presence of 6 Commanders allows your Bodyguards to soak wounds for them, namely wounds that come from targeted psychic powers, as drones cannot do so. In addition, having an additional attack may not seem like much, but remember that those upgrades bodyguards also have BS4+ with an Advanced Targeting System. With a 1 cost stratagem, they are essentially throwing a heavy bolter each in melee that rerolls hits and wounds.
    Third, Crisis Suits hardly use Fusion Blasters for Anti-tank. They use Cyclic Ion Blasters, which have way more shots and are good against a larger variety of enemies including vehicles.
    Crisis Suits, provided that they are run in Farsight Enclaves are easily a tier-five unit.

    A tip for the video format: when you lay out the star units, keep a small thumbnail of them at the bottom next to the star count, and then float the next unit picture higher where you've got the unused space. That way at the end of the star list, the viewer has a quick reference of all units in each star tier.

They had a little paint your own guy demo up amd i had a lot of fun. Few weeks later i got Dark Imperium. Since then I've really enjoyed the games I've done with my friends(even if painting the death guard and my homebrew chapter took forever XP).

They implant tyranid genes into the planet’s population so that when somebody is born they are born with tyranid mutations and genestealer mindset. They are basically half human-tyranid hybrids who are what destabilize a planet so that the tyranid armie can take the planet over easier.

    Big misses imo are
    Piranha: yeah, it gets killed before doing much damage, but it's surprisingly hard to kill, and when it dies, it spawns two drones. Great for being annoying, holding objectives, and screening.
    Crisis Suits: five star units in a FSE army, due to abilities like the FSE boost to hit, strategem support out the wazzoo, and some nice pseudo relics. They end up being very cheap compared to what they can do.
    Kroot warriors: sorry, they might be theoretically okay but why would you ever take them over a strike team?
    Pathfinders: Siegler went undefeated at a major tournament with these. They're fragile but you can use them as drone controllers and they have marker lights.
    Devilfish: yes, it's not great, but it's a transport. Sometimes you do need to get fire warriors up to an objective.

    @johndevlin9225 4 роки тому +4

    I think you’re underestimating the value of good ballistic skill for the T’au. Hitting on a 4+ is really bad for a shooting faction with lower volume of fire. Longstrike + Hammerheads only need 1 Markerlight to fire at full effectiveness, which helps you diversify your targets. Moreover, casting Kauyon twice is incredibly valuable for a gunline, as it’s an additional round of rerolls to hit if you can castle properly.

      They still lack FLY and have a 5” move, which is a gigantic downside in the Tau Empire’s arsenal and general flow of how the units function. It’s always going to be a big issue with them. They’re honestly like glass cannons, but they still have the “glass” part of them.

  • @Oneydjak
    @Oneydjak 4 роки тому +3

    Going to put my 2 cents here as a Tau player: the two 'main' good septs are Tau, which you covered, and then Sa'Cea. Unfortunately, Vior'la isn't that great. Maybe Farsight Enclaves, but I haven't had enough time to really mess with them. A few things to note that I found wrong about your star rating,
    - Crisis suits: Even with recent buffs, they are not good outside of Farsight Enclaves (where they become better by having +1 Ballistic Skill and a 4+ Weapon Skill).
    - Even comparing Kroot to other infantry, like guardsman, they are just terrible: they cost more than a base squad of Fire Warriors even if that squad has a useful markerlight.
    - Slight correction on Pathfinders, you absolutely should be taking all those drones. Drone units main purpose is tanking wounds for Riptides and Broadsides, and having the ability to take 3 cheaper drones, especially since the recon has 2 wounds, is too good to pass up. Throw in 2 extra Shield Drones and you have 6 ablative wounds your best units.
    - Aun'Shi. I wish he was good, but his statline is deceiving for what he does. Ethereals need to be buffing your strongest units, sitting in the middle of your army. Even expecting some kind of melee attack, its counter-intuitive to put him in your list: For the Greater Good will smash anything that gets into range.
    This is a me thing, but, I'd stick Broadsides in 5 stars. While the Heavy Rail Rifle for them is only okay, the relic version is superb. Also, for the about the same amount of points as a Riptide, you get 3 times as many Smart Missile Systems, which are obliteratively strong currently (and perhaps for 9th as well...).
    Also, you are forgiven.

  • @rathstar
    @rathstar 4 роки тому +1

    Nice review, but I think you got a few things wrong.
    You never mentioned the sa'cea markerlight vanguard that is very popular in tournament lists. Accurate character markerlights that can't be targeted as their characters that reroll to hit, and don't die like fragile pathfinders or marker drones
    Kroot hounds should be mid tier along with kroot. The kroot hounds are a very chap unit that is very fast, and that is their main strength. Need a unit to push enemy deepstrike out on your flank, a 20-24 point hound unit is perfect. Need to move 12+D6" to get an objective hounds are perfect particular if you will use such unit its much better it's a cheap hound unit. If they draw any fire power its better than it going into drones.
    Pathfinder drones was a missed opportunity. One big advantage is they allow you to bring more drone units without having lots of 2 model drone units. The recon drone is a 2 wound drone for only 2 points more than a shield drone. A shield drone has a 1 in 3 chance of surviving the 1st saviour protocol, the recon drone has a 100% chance of surviving. The pathfinder drones don't have to stay near the pathfinders, so the pulse accelerator drones can move near strike teams, increasing their range to 36" and more importantly their rapid fire range to 18" which gives them 3 shots at that range if a cadre fireblade is near.
    Its easy to miss, but Enforcers are generally taken for the cyclic ion blaster which the Coldstar commander can not take. Shadowsun is taken for her Genius of Kauyon ability not her firepower. Either double kauyon against a advancing for, or a Mont'ka then a Kauyon 2nd turn vastly ups the firepower from the main tau line. While out of range she can use the stratgem to give up her shooting to give a neearby battlesuit unit reroll to wound, eg. a riptide or even better a unit of broadsides with high yield missile pods, smart missile systems, and a seeker missile each. Very odd that the MissileSides were not mentioned, as before psychic awakening's magne rail rifles only the missile varient was seen.
    Lastly I think mentioned some of the more popular custom sept combos would have helped, particular hardened warheads and stabilisation systems, as they add to the tau firepower through either extra ap, or freeing up battlesuit slots from not having to take target lock allowing velocity tracker (+1 to hit fly) to be taken on both riptides and rail rifle broadsides. Negative to hit modifiers really hurt Tau, so anything that can negate that is very useful.
    On the whole it was a good review, but had some glaring omissions or inaccuracies.
    I just started ad mech, so would love a similar video on ad mech.
    PS. Take my critism with a pinch of salt, its impossible to know all armies so well, and your high subscriber count after only 8 videos shows you are doing things right and people like it. I also appreciate how hard and time consuming it must be to do these lists. Definitely a easy like and subscribe from me.

    I generally find that in all "Stormsurge vs Imperial knight" - kind of videos are unrealistic, in all real games you will have marker lights which will make hitting easy, which then makes it easy to kill things. Most big models don't rely too heavily on their armies support as Tau do.

    For a new person to the game and making a tau army, this does help out a lot.
    The only thing now is I'm got an army list id like to use using battle scribe and colour scheme but having so trouble sort out gear, drones, septs choice ect
    Just wondering if you or other people can help me out with it.

    One thing to note about the breachers: guardians give strike teams a 6+ invuln. but it gives breachers a 5+. Also, Coldstars can't take CIBs, while Enforcers can. It's an expensive gun, but it's a pretty strong one.

    and to think no one used to play etherials because of the very vorthos Price of Failure rule (Especially when 4th edition came around and their ability to increase leadership went from Table wide to an aura around them so you couldn't just hide them behind a rock so they didn't die and cause your entire force to run away.

      Seeing as the forgeworld models are supposed to be getting a rebalance in the next edition and also that the next edition is coming quite soon, I'll probably cover them after that. I don't exactly know when that'll be, but I'll try to get them out as fast as possible then.

    You missed the combo for a crisis suit bomb with Cib and the farsight enclave strat from for the greater good supplement. You can have crisis suits hitting on 2s re rolling. Itll melt pretty much anything in the game with one volley.

    I remember my 13/12/10 hammerheads blowing up a lot of my friends Land raiders with the S10 AP1 Railgun All you have to do is roll on BS3 so 4+ (7-BS) to hit, then roll S+D6 to pierce the armour, so 4+ vs a 14/14/14 land raider and then Roll a 5 or 6 on the Vehicle damage chart thanks to your AP1 to cause it to Explode.

  • @thecoolanon
    @thecoolanon 4 роки тому +1

    I run a tau armored company and I definitely disagree that the devilfish and piranhas are 1 star. Toughness 7 isn't so bad when your entire army is toughness 7. but two things. The cadre fireblades ability affects all models not just infantry so a devilfish that's 9" away from an enemy will fire 16 st5 shots. or 12 at long range which is pretty good firepower for a transport. But on top of this, the devilfish has a fat body and can fly, making it a great shield for getting into the way of enemy forces and slowing them down, add that the drones can either jump out to seize objectives or they can stay on and just continue to speed bump even after the devilfish is destroyed and the devilfish is protecting way more than just the infantry inside. Piranhas are relatively cheap for such a versatile unit, especially in more objective games.
    But what really makes piranhas and devilfish stand out to me in my army is the fact that they both can take two seeker missiles. In my list I use hardened warheads and gifted pilots and my armored company tau can fire off 32 seeker missiles in the first turn. Even when I go second by turn 2 my opponent is usually playing catch up and usually without their main anti tank units. that said a single devilfish with breachers is definitely an easy target.

    • @Kanjejou
      @Kanjejou 4 роки тому

      Pyranha are three star for me you have to build around them, but... they are a tad overpriced since you are a landspeeder with worse stats worse weapons no doctrine or startagems and at the same price range 52vs55pts. if you consider that they are 32 pts for 1 fast pulse canon +20pts of drones. they would be better if you could remove the drones would make them moreeasily usable.
      Devilfish suffer like every transport by being too costly , just too costly. they are at the price of a fire warrior squad for protecting a fire warrior squad. why not have 2 fire warrior squads?
