It's more fun if you pretend the water caste are doing the comms (diplomacy and that) because then you can get stuff like:
Por Sh'O
Por Ef'Ort
and so on.
Thomas Ortiz
Now that I think of it, what are the traditional void combat strategies for the Tau? The firecaste derive them from Hunting strategies and Puritedie's teachings. What are the war strategies of the Air Caste?
Knowing Tau vehicle durability, probably from the Hindenberg.

Ram and taunt also novas
Oliver King
Macros Spam swords, take as many dauntless as you can, stun them with the taunt skill. Don't ever use lances, use swords because the have two turrets that fire every 3 seconds, making them perfect dps choices against eldar, that have shit armour. Also, bait them, since they are faster, they will always be after you, you can use this at your advantage. If you ram them, even by error you deal a fuckton of damage, even frigate Rams are dangerous to them.

The others are named like this based on the length of their service and their effectiveness in battle.
Brandon Ramirez
Just reached lvl 8 again with my IN and i'm utterly dissatisfied with my fleet. >BB I don't have the renown for one yet. >One of each BC, one mars with stasis bomb and shield overload and shield transfer, the other one I can't recall the name has taunt, coolant and shield overload. >2 tyrant with taunt and coolant. One Gothic with shield transfer and shield overload. >2 dauntless with stasis bomb, 2 mk2 with shield overload.
Everything is upgraded with extra void shield, ships with ramming spur have extra hull. Otherwise shield regen. Macro canons have AP amo, Gothic has lance range, mars has ordonnance cooldown. Dauntless have extra teleportarium.
My strategy is to brawl and ram and use the gothic has support and the mars against Eldar.
right now I feel my fleet is shit. Should I keep on struggling or start a new profile? What skills/upgrades do you suggest for brawling has IN?

Chaos ships are invariably weak early on in an admirals career. True or false?

>tfw i give my ships the IN favour because i like how they look with it
Asher Martinez
Ahaha, the last story mission can get fuuuucked. The enemy has approximately infinite ships, I need to destroy a super-flagship that could probably solo my entire fleet in a straight fight, and my supposed allies will happily suicide themselves right into asteroids and instant-kill areas minutes into the game.

What's up with 2v2 point sizes? My friend is lvl 8 and I'm lvl 5 but all we're getting are 300pts cruiser clashes. Is this normal?
I heard someone say that the devs were filmed singing this.

is this what happens if all your ships die?

47/10.
Charles Garcia
It's because the point cap balances itself between the two of you. Your total points between both players in your case is 600, which means both of you must work with 300 points to each other. To be fair, that's enough for a battleship for each player on a team.
Jace Wright
Is that the fucking Red Star of the Gretchin Revolutionary Committee!?
FUCKIN ERIC DA RED LIVES!
Gavin Garcia
If I did a Slaanesh fleet I'd name them all after Celebrity Paedophiles.
Aaron Jenkins
Playing with one battleship and virtually nothing else is not very fun.
Wyatt Hughes
Eric da Red?
Owen Nguyen
True, but I was just making a point of it being kind of a low point value to begin with.
Ryder Davis
Nice. Did that with my blood bowl orcs, all orc pun celebrity names. >tfw adorc hitler wasn't allowed
Juan Powell
are the devs likely to unfuck eldar or are they going to remain utterly broken like DOW?
t. Eldar player.
Jordan Collins
They might nerf them, but Id rather see them buff everyone else.
Andrew Thomas
They are probably going to remain OP as fuck. The best thing to do is leave matchmaking when you see an eldar player.
Connor Hall
I've also matched the types. Every Terror Ship is named after a carrier and every Kill Krooza is named after a battleship.
Oliver Baker
Well that fills me with confidence. I shall continue gloriously smiting those with a poor understanding of void tactics and less OP fleets because...
>that's my fetish.
Owen Mitchell
They play differently to IN ships, not being similarly brawler like.
So, no, they are not exactly weaker than any other factions starter ships, it just takes some getting used to and upgrades to use them.
Wyatt Barnes
Dude, you fought that thing earlier in game and it tells you in advance with a mailed notice before it shoots at you with its insta-kill weapon.
Ayden Gutierrez
Don't buy into the Lunar meme. If you want a brawler, you want a Tyrant
Lucas Evans
Correct. If it has two different batteries, into the trash it goes.
Ryder Clark

Ork ships are heavy, m8

What said. The entirety of an eldar ship is basically a crumple zonewhile the entirety of an ork ship is a krumple zone.

Yeah, but with a V8
Ethan Ortiz
Any tip or trick to help a fellow user to git gud?
Noah Sanchez
The Tyrant's super long range plasma macros seem pointless for a brawler though.
Doesn't that mean that you can focus on non weapons upgrades?
I'm also curious if there's any reason other than fluff and variety not to just throw admech on everything.It's not like imperium ships ever suffer from insubordination anyhow.
Oliver Phillips
>Lunar meme
Jackson Stewart
on the TT they probably play closest too coldwar naval combat. Most of their gunnery is turreted and mainly forward focus with on sitting back at standoff range. reliant on attack craft and missiles for a lot of their long range effectiveness.
Nolan Wright
macro cannons are still good up close, the extra range is just a bonus. You want the Tyrant over a dominator because torpedoes work and work well up close and you have that ramspike if needed.
Jacob Gonzalez
>if needed
So whenever possible, you mean.
Levi Kelly
In an escort squadron, if one ship gets +1 LD does that apply too the whole squadron?
Jason Garcia
I am tempted to do a run through the campaign with every battle with just a flagship plus as many destroyers as possible.

Hunter White
He's a character from Gorka Morka, and I know about him only second hand.
Basically one of the game's factions was a bunch of revolutionary Gretchin, who decided they didn't like being bullied by the bigger, meaner Orks. And they have a lot of silly soviet revolution era referenced to their style, except sillier cause they're Orks.
Elijah Brown
Chaos have better speed and range, and weaker armour and damage on their light cruisers. So they spend the majority of their early fleet games running away, throwing bombers backwards.
Daniel King
I know Gorkamorkas fluff, but I just can't get my head around that name. There is Da Red Gobbo, but can't remember no Eric.
Lucas Martinez
>match against eldar player >he just kites around and uses ranger strikes to blow up engines >can't even do enough damage to negate emergency maintenance >legitimately spends 15 minutes pulling this stupid shit until the clock runs out and I win anyways
Jeremiah Long
That's why the game really could do with some sort of victory points mechanic in cruiser clash. If that guy had been randomly selected as defender instead he pretty much would have won by default.
Ian Roberts

Hudson Wright
Kor'eh An The enemy will surrender because superior key pressing skills.

two different anons decided to make a new thread and someone didn't check the catalog. We should probably try consolidating them. Maybe direct eveyone too this one just because it's the biggest.
Isaac Collins
>not Kor'Nip On

John Reed
Whats the most orky Imperial set up
Wyatt Morris
Because this one dont look like or indetifies as Gothic thread in the catalog on a normal look.
Jacob Clark
Dauntless mk2, Tyrants, Overlords, Retribution, maybe a Dictator or Dominator if you wanna mix it up. Power Ram, AP Ammo, Short Burn Torpedoes and Astartes Favour on pretty much everything.
Daniel Martinez
What about the speed upgrade?
Angel Morgan
But it looks exactly the same as the last 8 threads.
Carson Hughes
I didnt change the appearance. Lucky me both threads are beside to another.
Its maybe minor things but on a first glance this thread dont look like a Gothic thread.
