PLASTIC DEFFKOPTAS WHEN
If you were a Great Unclean One, what cool name would you give your underling?
[childish shooty noises]
Since being a badguy makes your situation less precarious in the Warhammer 40k universe, does that mean that as the Tau become more and more grimdark and evil we'll begin to see them become less hanging on by a thread and instead see them more as a major threat?
iz a full unit of deffkoptaz wurf? or iz we best to just run 1 az a scout / troublamaykah
Who saved the 4th sphere expansion from the warp?
Was it a chaos god?
Was it the emperor?
Some eldar god?
Was it Aun'va
*blocks your path, your crusade, and steal your Eldar waifu*
Isn’t the reason that this model doesn’t have it’s own box is they can’t be arsed getting it off the AoBR sprue?
Do we know the points cost yet?
How about the cost of the box set?
£95 for the box is confirmed already, points are not though
The T'au are not hanging on a thread. They are surviving, thriving, and growing stronger each year. Ain't no one is stopping their stride.
The box set is going to be $160. Not sure about points
A good estimate is between 150 and 250 points, box will most likely cost the same as dark imperium
Chuckles the silly piggy
nth for Dunecrawler being best GW model ever made
Too many metal men in these threads!
>not the dragoon
>implying I wouldn't join up with Humanity's best hope
sounds pretty legit
I disagree
>Ain't no one is stopping their stride.

No, the dragoon is third, after the Kastellan Robots
>yfw riptides are back
Who is in the wrong here? Which side does the Blackstone truly belongs to?
dragoon without BDSMBoi is easily first i believe you will find
Hey I have a set of those objective markers! Were they hard to paint?
Not like they were, thank the emperor.
the space frogs
They are both wrong for killing each other when they have the same immediate goal
Wait, do Tau have red eyes? I've always seen them in the lore art as having black or brown eyes.
For fuck's sake, GW needs to start getting consistent with this shit. I also have no idea what their feet are supposed to look like. On Fire Warriors, they clearly have hooves like a horse or a goat would. But then when you look at Ethereals and shit, they have like elephant feet, with the hooves basically just being big toenails.
>anything belonging to xenos
manifest destiny, my friend. the galaxy rightfully belongs to the emperor
Who else here is looking forward to Van Saar just for some sweet ad mech conversions?
It was Draigo damn it!
That's fanart, you idiot.
T'au have deep black shiny eyes. Humans who look into T'au eyes often say they are beautiful. It's like looking at mini galaxies.
T'au. The entire Galaxy is our divine right, and for the Greater Good we will exercise that right in time.
>Not even looking through the scope or any sort of targeting assist system
>Human body with no nose but vaguely tau-female nose slit symbol on forehead
>No actual barrel, just an indent where muzzle should be
-3/10 heretical smutt
Is there ever a time anyone should pick a stormbolter over a combi-plasma?
It was M'ao
>Who is in the wrong here?
Admech.
>Which side does the Blackstone truly belong to?
Necrons
>This isn't right, that was ours! Give it back! We built it, Dammit!
We're going to get played like damn fiddles, aren't we tomb-bros?
pretty much every time
if you want plasma take devestators or scions
My Tau are orange skinned mutants.
I really don't think they can be used as conversion material
they don't share the aesthetic of any faction except maaaaybe the dark eldar
You're god damn right we will!
I picked the wrong picture, but I know for a fact that I have seen lore/fluff/art that says they have red eyes, and others that say they have black eyes. And that doesn't solve the discrepancy about their hooves.
Care to give a source because forgive me that sounds super fruity.
you don't know what "divine" means, do you?
>unironically using the apostrophe
>know for a fact that I have seen lore/fluff/art that says they have red eyes
Then give citations then.
Praise be to our glorious gate keeper of the people.
>Oh no! He overcharged and killed 4 marines, my plan is RUINED
This pic was a good idea but kinda poorly executed. They need to have their mouths shut
Im trying to build a small blood angels list and I'm wondering how FnP saves stack. If I had a warlord with Gift of Foresight (6+ FnP), a Comapny Ancient with the Banner of Sacrifice relic (5+ FnP bubble), and nearby company veterans (get down mr warlord!)... would the following work?
>warlord fails an invuln save, takes a wound
>takes his gift of foresight save (6+), fails
>takes his banner of sacrifice save (5+), fails
>nearby vet takes a mortal wound for him
>vet then takes the banner of sacrifice save (5+), fails
>he rolls for a 4+ to shoot an overcharged plasma pistol before he dies (non-relic company ancient aura)
Is there anything that would make that entire sequence not legal?
CYRAXUS
What other factions could credibly get Primarch-tier units?
I kind of want post-Octarius Ghazzy to fill that role for the Orks
Damocles anthology. The part with the Gue'vesa POV.

Its probably because they have a ton of the metal ones still in stock that they are trying to sell at 33 bucks apiece.
It's about time for GW to bite the bullet on that one.
I think the orks already had primorks.
I was aiming for a company vet plasma squad with a cheapo gunline captain. Maybe not entriely meta, but it'll do. The consideration is more that tacs aren't meta and I would have expected most HQ units to be too specialised for a stormbolter unless they were on a budget and not syncing with any other unit except bolter/HBs
burst cannon with 8 shots is going to kill a lot more than just 4 marines
are you thinking about the ion accelerator?
>using a s9 gun to kill marines
lol
I think it works. It's the same with Archon warlord and Sslyth. If save fail, feel no pain then Sslyth take a Mortal wound on a 2+ that he can save with FNP 6+.
I knew there were going to be more Knights! Threads will forever be protected!
Thanks. Just "mini-galaxies" wew.
8 shots at bs4 isnt going to do shit m8
Here, nigger. GW used to show all Tau with red eyes, but now for whatever reason they don't.
I was thinking of using them as count as Scions as a Rogue trader's (either Inquisitor or Commissar Lord)
why not take sternguard? last i checked they can take plasma guns
I... I though that was just the scabbard, not the blade!
Here's another, bitch. I know what I'm talking about, they used to have red eyes.
hope you can help me guys, im fairly new to playing 40k, and im about to buy my first army, im going IG, im going to kitbash all my troops, so it looks like a mercenary army, but i just noticed the goliath gang have bigger bases then other guys, 32mm as opposed to 25mm i think.
is that against the rules, since the standard guard comes on a 25mm base? i dont want to be cheating, or have any issues pop up while trying to play a game.
thanks for any info
>the T°au suck so bade at close combat they have to be issued ceremonial saftey knives
why haen't you ditched the multi-lasers?
Are they the ones with the spots on their head?
Looks cool
18*
And with markerlights its bs3+ rerolling 1s
And for comparison, here is a relatively new Tau unit, modeled without red eyes, even though all previous art/minis had red eyes.
And they used to have blue/purple blood but that was changed to red recently. Follow what's in the lore, not what's painted on the models.
It doesn't change much but you could put them on 25mm if you're worried.
Good luck landing those markerlight hits though.
The old lore used to talk about their red eyes too, motherfucker.
>Don't know the name of the emperor
Bloody cheek of this Xeno, everyone knows it's Venerate. It's on all them statues what say "Venerate the Immortal Emperor".
My eyes!
just put them on 25s, they may look out of place but it will definitely emphasize their gains next to their smol brothers
Fair, might be worth it. I don't have 8e, just 7e, so I'm still partially behind, assumed company vets would be better for the role.
>2 tax fireblades with BS2+ markerlights, the second one rerolling hits
+d3 for stratagem, already at 4 on average
wow that was lucky
>actually planning on stacking 5 markerlights
>Thanks. Just "mini-galaxies" wew.
The way lights reflect in T'au eyes makes it look like their eyes are full of stars
It's worse for you because if your unit is bubble wrapped in fight phase, you will have more trouble escaping because you cannot fall back through other enemy models. The larger the base, the easier it's made for enemy to bubble wrap you.
question about skitarri rangers/vanguard, would it be rules-legal to give the alpha a melee weapon, without replacing their primary with a pistol? i.e. ranger alpha w/ galvanic rifle in right hand, taser goad in left hand.
Kind of creepy to me honestly.
Goddamn. This looks sick. I wish fw wasn't such cancer. Literally and figuratively.
Citation needed.
>worst eyes in the galaxy
>but very pretty
I'd take it.
Yup, that's fine.
yep thats legal for both units
>The Ranger/Vanguard Alpha may take one item from the melee weapons list, and may replace thier rifle/carbine with one item from the pistols list
>We're going to get played like damn fiddles, aren't we tomb-bros?
Are you referring to the meme that chaos writers have taken over GW in a coup and there is no actual way to win anymore to save the lore?
proof: pariahs
Go check one of their old codexes, I don't remember the edition but it was the really old one with like two battlesuits jumping down and an ethereal next to them or something. I think it was 3e
