Guys,
We want people to contribute on this forum and not be afraid to post their thoughts. Good on Deb for having the guts to bring something different to the table to try and address some of issues raised. We want open discussion. I would like to think we will get to more testing soon and I am sure it will provide us more to discuss. I know there is a lot of concern out there about possible change, but isn't that why we have the testing phase? I have started to test Tims farsight rule and to date haven't seen anyone else trial it. I do appreciate many guys taking my Cancon list for a spin and offering feedback. However this thread was started to explore the ratio change to BielTan and I would claim that 4 pages of discussion would warrant testing at some point soon.
Cheers
Mic
To be honest I've your list twice and at least three other people in the UK have tested it in half a dozen games and I can't see that they have presented any issues that need addressing. If I don't agree with a change and have tested a list and found no need for a change then I'm using my weekly game to test a development/experimental list that needs testing.
My POV after playing the list several times and reading batreps here and the experiences of the list author is that its a very good list for the meta that it is used in. Mic Fair is obviously one of the best Australian players and would do well with most competitive lists. The particular list is competitive, but not OTT, in any meta but in the particular meta its strengths push it into the OTT bracket as they correlate with the weaknesses, or more exactly preferred builds there.
Are any of the opponents of the list or you yourself willing to give the tactics and lists that have been suggested that will take advantage of the lists weaknesses?
