Tau Fire Warriors

Tau Fire Warriors

For Troops selections, Fire Warriors are one of two options (The other being Kroot Carnivores). They are also the more popular of the two by far, so expect to see a lot of them. WS:2 BS:3 S:3 T:3 W:1 I:2 A:1 Ld:7 Sv:4+ From what you can see above, I’m sure it’s no surprise that Tau suck in melee. What they do excel at is ranged shooting.

Tactica Landspeeders

Tactica Landspeeders

Sergeant Rorik scanned the shadows of the woods that lay before his squad, his keen gaze searching for the genestealers that were cautiously sneaking up on them between the tree trunks.
When the first silhouettes showed, his squad readied their boltguns. “Steady…” he advised them, still waiting for the genestealers to decide on their course of [...]

They conjure up pastoral images of fields and meadows to do battle over, and they are easy enough to construct, unlike some other scenery. And they generally have a useful place in the rules, [...]

Wraithlords

Wraithlords

Wraithlords are the toughest unit that an eldar player has available to them. The fact that they have a toughness value and not an armor value makes them much stronger than any dreadnought.

SM Bike Tactica I: What you need to know about bikers

SM Bike Tactica I: What you need to know about bikers

I have always been a fan of Space Marine Bikes. Fast, tough and powerful. That’s what drew me to the marines in the first place. Needless to say I was astounded to find that the community as a whole considered bikes useless. Now I will concede that in 3rd ed, they were not particularly impressive [...]
