I think this was a story of target priority. The centurions along with the apothecary are nearly impossible to shift. They absorbed so much firepower whereas I think if they’d been completely ignored Spider would’ve had way fewer toys by the time Kauyon kicked in. I also think it’s super important to try and shoot at targets that give the kauyon boneses. Good learning game against a tough opponent! Fun to watch :)

@mrlakkie1612 Жыл бұрын

those arent bad points, usually people go wrong with this when they try to kill units that are ment to soak up damage. because they are usually also dangerous when in melee. but just using your speed to stay away and focus on the points scoring units instead is usually the better strategy.

@Nolan5k Жыл бұрын

absolutely right. When I run my salamanders I like to take a librarian and apothecary along with my aggressors. Even with as poorly as marines are doing right now, this combo performs really well. However, if he'd screened better and didn't wind up so vulnerable so early, he could've probably used his hammerheads to deal with them. They aren't ideal for infantry, but the ability to bypass the saving throws and dump mortal wounds into a unit is typically an effective answer for this kind of combo.

If there's a lesson to be learned from this game, that's gotta be: always put Target Lock on you Crisis, that shield gen won't save you anyway most of the time. Also the terrain was REALLYYY nasty for the Tau, the fact that the entire army could hide behind obscuring and still be in range for easy charges the turn after definitely influenced the outcome of the game

@JayzusKhrist Жыл бұрын

Eh, the middle ruins were not LOS blocking, just gave save buffs. Don’t think it was that nasty, Tau still had a lot of lines. Blood Angels are just able to do fly across the board, alpha charges are always possibilities.

There's just so many characters it's hard to keep track of who's in what book but Gabriel Seth definetly stuck out.

Great showing for the angels. Well played, even if that turn 1 charge was lucky. Unfortunate game for the T'au. The battle reports on this channel are always a delight. I have two words for the T'au players watching: Resonator Warheads. Actually I have a few more: Just put your Kroot on a shelf or something 😟. They're about as good a screen as a sheet of paper. Their stratagems don't compare to the other ones available and they don't benefit from any of the Tau's cool abilities. Fire warriors are as solid a troop choice as can be reasonably asked for and their photon grenades stratagem is often better than repulsor impact field as it also gives the charging unit -1 to hit (the caveat being it doesn't work against vehicles and monsters). I'm actually a little puzzled by the choice to run the Kauyon philosophy. Against BA, I would anticipate them being in my face right away. Keeping in mind you don't have to choose your philosophy until the turn order is decided, I can't see a reason to not take Mont'ka in this battle. It'd be a different story if he were stuck going first.

Excellent battle report. You said the Tau lost in deployment, do you think it's really before that in list building. Against any melee army that hides behind terrain in the mid field and scores they are going to find it rough. Sure they can kill Amy army they can see but how would they ever win such a match up ? I always say you should build your list for the most difficult scenarios, so how do you think the Tau should do this ? Vespids and a crisis suit in deepstrike (can reroll to hit on the drop, reroll to wound as well with Enclaves). More screens to absorb the initial charge, eg. Kroot and hounds ? Sunshark to bb mortal wounds and get line of sight ? This all reduces the direct damage available in the easy matches where you can see the enemy but helps in the tough matches.

I'm not sure it's worth it, but what can the Tau put in it's place that gives that much firepower? Also, Farsight doesn't re-roll anything for himself? Lame. This was a good match.
