VoteWar 40K Mk II.V - Final Battle - Dark Eldar vs. Tau

[Robizzle]

I´m not telling you how to vote but do you actually mean that having this many lances are cheesy?

Of course not. It would be a wild insinuation to suggest that many dark lances is cheesy. It's just when I look at your army, all I see is a bunch of raiders and ravagers pointing heavy weapons at me. I've never considered the DE to be a shooty army, but this quite blatantly shows how shooty they can be. However, because of this, I don't think they deserve the fluff vote. at least compared to the Tau, as mech tau is, in all fairness exactly how Tau would play in real life.

Hoi.

The fluff vote is(as far as I know) only there as a tiebreaker. No need to get cheesed off at each other about it.

Ok. So I punned. I deserve a fate worse than death. And I'm already (mostly happily) married so that doesn't count.

But scrapping over who's army is 'cheesier' is a bit silly since its going to be determined typically by personal preference rather than any specifc guidelines. Both players built their lists to win battles and to a lesser extent no doubt to remain fluffy. Both are in fact, quite fluffy, and any variation in people's votes on this matter will typically reflect the difficulty there is in choosing between them. I mean, I picked one over the other and gave my reasons, but I respect the reasons that others give to vote the other way.

Of course, I shouldn't be one to talk after ranting on other threads. And certainly its easier for me to say 'cool it' when its not my own army on the line.

Both of these armies are very good, or they wouldn't be in the finals here.

Edit: Of course, by the time I posted this everyone had already made peace and I look like a ****.
