Despite battlesuits being shit the Tau one is probably the best deal. But then you'd be playing Tau.
The Tau one is one farsight away from being the full nine.
It’s also missing a broadside isn’t it?
Battle suits are fine aren’t they? Maybe not optimal but they can still do a job.
Plus who is to say what they’re like in Apocalypse? I wager stuff not getting removed till the end of a turn is going to make a lot of things more interesting to take.
Yeah, the ork preview makes kills kans sound good in apoc. They're trash in 40k, so who knows how the different systems play out.
Today's preview is going through damage and attacks and the system is really different. I think that might help stuff like Kans out a lot. Also they always get at least one turn of activation. And their stats aren't bad verse a lot of things.
I’ll probably pick up the CSMs to use in 40k. I’ve got enough Primaris infantry already so the SM one just doesn’t appeal to me. If it had a different spread of aggressors/inceptors then maybe. I feel like they missed an opportunity to bundle it with the new tank.

My friend who is new to the hobby and started with Blood Angels (he is about to finally finish building his very first 2k army) was originally going to play Orks because he loves killa kans but ended up not since killa kans are so bad. Seems like there is a chance he might go Orks with apoc.

I never fear death or dyin', I only fear never trying.
Given that robby only has 2 wounds, that seems to track that a unit of intercessors (also listed at 2 wounds) is one block, not individual models. Don't even gotta take them out of their movement tray!

Yeah. Considering Bobby-G being 2 wounds and that it seems trays are a single set of wounds. You can play this with way fewer models just have them represented as a single models instead of a tray letting folks play it with out 6,000 point collections.
Let's them do interesting things with wounds/models/saves. If a unit of interccessors is 2W with a 6+ save, a big blob of cultists could be like 4W with a 10+ save.

You can probably use the rules for 6mm as Epic 3.0, it's so similar.

Got some new art for over my painting area:
Close up view:
The Lord-Commander himself watches over my painting with blessings from the emperor.
(It's a print of the The Dark Imperium painting on a museum canvas)
neat I kind of wanted to get one but I really wanted to see how it turned out before I did
It's the taste the rainbow eldar codex is one I wanted to get
For the T'au apoc box, I heard people saying that it could be pretty easily turned into the eight. Is that true? That sounds pretty interesting if so.
I also think I'm gonna get the Necron, Imperial Knight, and T'au apoc sets.
pretty sure you would just need Farsight and a Broadside, the rest of the eight could be done with whats in the apoc box as they are a mix of regular and enforcer crisis suits with fixed weapons.
7. Broadside - two HYMP, two SMS, A seeker missile
8. Riptide - ion accelerator, two fusion blasters
Thats just the visible loadout and does not include the drones or non-visible wargear. (the onager and fusion blades have no official model as far as I am aware so you usually dont have to model those)

Apoc box has....
1 x commander
6 x crisis
1 x riptide
drones aplenty.
Sick, I am definitely interested. I also think I'm going to keep all my T'au KT stuff separate from my 40K stuff. I don't like the color shift paint job enough to do an entire army in it.
So does the apoc stuff not come with the customization or is it static? Is that what you meant by fixed?

sorry, I meant the 8 have fixed loadouts. if you take the 8 then they have to have the listed weapons.
the apoc box will have all the usual sprues the sub-kits contain. so if you don't build as the eight you can build them as you like.

Oh, alright. Then yeah, I think I'm gonna make what I can of the 8 using that box.

Curses! I'm right in the middle of moving to Japan. Gonna be real awkward bringing all this stuff through customs...
I kid, I'm just going to have it shipped. I think I'll hold off on buying the Primaris vehicle on its own: I would bet you a dollar that they're going to put it together in some kind of boxed set in the near future... or at least for the Christmas packs.
Quick question for anyone who uses Citadel Air Paints: I've had a lot of trouble with my Averland Sunset air: it's real gummy and it produces a speckled, Spackle-like result. I don't have this problem with the other Citadel Air Paints that I've used. Is this unique to the color or did I just get a bad batch? I tried calling up GW customer support but I got a message saying they're doing customer service training until 1 July.

I've had that problem with averland and flash gitz yellow
Honestly, I think the next unit I paint yellow I'm just going to base cream and airbrush some iyanden yellow then pinwash. I tried airbrushing a bit of it when I was working on the Blastajet I posted in the painting thread and it seemed to glaze very well.

Oh good. I was going to ask you how you did that. I’m trying to get a friend started in the hobby and she likes the Bad Moon orks. I bought some contrast paints just for this.

Also that something like roboute has only 2 wounds shows that wound counting is also going to be a lot easier.
Looks like they really put a lot of work into this. This is the biggest rule shake up for 40k since 3rd edition I think.
