A few more I have stumbled across in the games I have had against Tau.<br /><br />Target saturation and cover saturation. <br /><br />Overwhelming the tau with targets can cause them problems. Reserve is a bad idea as it gives them less targets to deal with and makes their target priority easier allowing them to take you to pieces piece by piece.<br /><br />The two reports below illustrate this:<br /><a href="http://www.thedarkcity.net/t6148-br21-the-black-buzzards-vs-new-tau-1500pts#66556" rel="nofollow">BR21: The Black Buzzards VS New Tau</a><br /><a href="http://www.thedarkcity.net/t6173-br22-the-black-buzzards-vs-tau-rematch-1500pts#66826" rel="nofollow">BR22: The Black Buzzards VS Tau (Rematch)</a><br /><br />Markerlights ignore cover, but they are a limited resource, they can't ignore all your cover! Also if they are using tokens to ignore cover, then they will be loosing out on a potential BS boost. :D<br /><br />Don't hesitate when an opportunity to strike arises and remember rip tides are not fearless so multiple charges cause them serious problems as they can easily get cut down. <br /><br />As illustrated in this report:<br /><a href="http://www.thedarkcity.net/t6238-br23-the-black-buzzards-vs-tau-mech-riptide-1500pts#67742" rel="nofollow">BR23: The Black Buzzards VS Tau Mech/Riptide</a><br /><br />Finally no matter how much fire power the Tau have most of it is limited to 36" or 36"+6".<br /><br />As illustrated in this report:<br /><a href="http://www.thedarkcity.net/t6649-br25-the-black-buzzards-vs-tau-mass-broadsides-1500pts#72284" rel="nofollow">BR25: The Black Buzzards VS Tau Mass Broadsides</a><br /><br />Hope that's useful to someone. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10976723143092620262noreply@blogger.com
