Open War 17 Battle Reports – Tau Undefeated! (Part 1)
As I’ve mentioned in other posts I decided to give my Tau one last run at a tournament this year after a promising performance at Jolly Toys . The main changes in the list were the addition of target locks to my broadsides and targetting arrays to my other suits. I’ll be discussing the list’s performance tomorrow so check back then if you’re interested. I knew from Jolly Toys that if I met the right opponents I’d actually have a decent chance of placing well. I’d need to be playing against mech heavy armies, preferably MSU (as I don’t have a ton of anti-infantry firepower). This means that winning the first game is important because the top tables tend to have the mech lists whereas the lower half have a greater variety. Anyway, onto the battles! Game 1 Tau vs Blood Angels When I saw that I was drawn against BA I just prayed that there’d be no jump packs. I knew Mephiston would be likely but my commander teams should be able to alpha-strike him if he’s in the open. Si’s list had a stormraven, two baal preds (ACs), two las-plas razors with assault squads plus priests, a 10-man assault squad with priest, furioso in a drop-pod and, as predicted, Mephiston! Si was using chaos models as his BA (as you can see in the picture) which was a welcome change and looked great on the table
