Thanks for the read. Nice to see how others use the Tau, and against Titans too.
I assume you had the Supremacy Suits at 250 points each, and 2 Barracuda Squadrons for the 3000 points.
To my eye you are running with relatively few markerlight formations, only 4 out of 13.
And one of them is committed/oriented to an air assault with another providing the only
on table AA within a BTS formation that is optimised for long range shooting.
Perhaps I missed it but you did not seem to take advantage of the Co-ordinated Fire rule.
Throwing a recon formation forward to both markerlight and provide a crossfire base is a
useful way of scratching RA4+ titans.
Your experience with the
potentially hard-hitting TK weaponry, AX-1-0 and
the Orbital Support, is for me a rather familiar occurrence. I also find the Crisis Suits
rather less hard hitting when facing an armour heavy opponent. The MW4+ is nice
(assuming you get to within 15 cm), the AT6+ on the missiles is rather less potent and
the Plasma Rifles oddly only scratch the paint.
Should have another Tau Vior'la game up on Mark's
Hordes of Things site soon.
The last game was against Ork Titans:
