The factions are all pretty similar to each other mechanics wise but they have different overarching styles. I would suggest playing the base game first. Tau Ethereal coming to inspire his fellows on the battlefield.Īnd finally the Dais of Destruction, carrying some eye candy aboard.Īnd now, dear readers, especially for you: the spectacular Tau vs D. Wanted to see the average speed velocity of a bombarded Eldar. Apparently even Tau have them!īombing my own forces with the flying super-heavy. They even get masks for reasons I cannot fathom. Shit, even their buildings don't escape the pointy makeover. "Eh, tat's nuthin', I 'ave that all the time wif me boyz, jus walk it off!" -Ork Warboss. I'm starting to suspect the Dark Eldar societal ladder is determined by the amount of spikes and other OSHA hazards that poke out of you. When they weren't busy chasing tail my defenseless builder units, that is. the fact the place was swarming with them probably didn't help. Tau kept letting the Mandrakes engage them in melee. Putting the barrel of your expensive gun into her face is always fun though. So far for their 'fragile speedy glass cannon' shtick. Not that it really helps, that thing is really darn powerful with lots of health. "You think it's gonna rain today?" "I dunno, let's look."
Mandrakes, the standard Dark Eldar unit, in all their ball-gagged glory. It was beautiful.Īnd, as promised, here's the results from a Dark Eldar vs Tau match: I swear, seeing those gatling guns just tear into the horde, cutting down the lesser spawn like so many blades of grass. What's cool is that, in this game, you can airdrop these tanks, and they are delivered by an actual transport, all very nicely modeled. Valkyrie gunship to the rescue!īut the real fun started when a Stormhammer came out to meet the horde head-on. Luckily, they had mortar support from the high ground. Which doesn't mean they didn't come to annoy my conscripts from time to time. The nid ai decided for some reason that it was perfectly content with just amassing more gaunts in its base, letting the others do the brunt of the work. Unfortunately, they only brought their plasma wallpaper. Tau, deciding that, yes, that ork base did need some redecorating. (Don't worry, she lived to shoot orks another day.) Also notice the spontaneously appearing second guardsman (how did he fit inside that backpak o.OĪnd this is the ork mekboy backhanding the lieutenant into next week. Notice the fine autocannon they're toting to blast apart heretics and aliens alike. Which, of course, ends in their summary execution. Guard (me) and 2 Tau AI helpers vs nids+orks+chaos: The Tau commander with his pet hormagaunt, Biters. Mandrake bopping a gaunt right in the face. Gotta hand it to them, Tau firepower can kill a lot of nids very fast. Said Grots deciding that, nope, fuck this noise, we're out. Also pictured: fire warriors who know by now how these end, and are wisely bugging out. "Hello sir, can I interest you in becoming organic slush to feed my hivemind?"Īnd then there's this joker right here, who killed far more gaunts than he had any right to.Īrchons are notorious for their situational awareness. But! It seems these genestealers take issue with that.
