| I will see what I can do with it. Borka what do you mean about the true cost of the shas o? I mean it replaces the Shas'el which I think is a 25 pts upgrade. So the way I see it in reality its cost it 25 + 75 points. The shas o is 75 for the re roll and extra weapon. The shas el at 25 points is pay... |

Thought I'd start a separate thread for battlereports to not to clog down the vior'la thread and make it's easier to follow the discussions.
Did a first test game last week. It can be found here here. |

| Thanks for your continued input to the discussion So far from what I see is Most of us, but not all, agree that the Manta is a sub par choice. Suggestions for tweeks/improvements are Better shooting Lowered price Access to ”command bridge” [ie characters] coordinate fire Self planetfall I have tried... |

| Dang, sounds like a pretty rough game for the eldar! Yeah it certainly was. Its not easy to play epic when one fails 10 out of something like 12 rally rolls. I also think it was a bit of a missmatch for his army. He played a very shooty eldar list, but to try and outshoot tau isn't that easy. I als... |

| I played my first game using the list. I met a local player. I had two big advantages going into this game. My friend is rather new to epic and has played less than 10 games and he had never met tau before. Incompertus, 3000 POINTS Tau Vior'la Revisited (NetEA v1.01) ================================... |

| The UK list has the same basic structure for the FWs and the heavy suits, but it is much more restricted. There are only breachers no regular FWs. The hammerheads are gone, recon is gone, crisis formation is gone, skysweep is gone, PF are not core but support and cannot take tetras (so they are gone... |

| If the primary focus is to add in the rest of the new Forgeworld suits and we're worried about where to then include Crisis suits, why not just go whole hog and make it a Kel'shan list (Forgeworld's chosen Sept that came up with all these new designs) and let Vior'la keep their Crisis suits and up ... |

| So this is based on UK list and not NetEA's from what i read. Interesting. I am liking so far the direction this is taking, even though i think is going to be hard with so many suits, making them different both when playing and on the miniature, but for now the first part looks well. Well I see it ... |

| Given I complete mis-read the transport entry on the Orca, sorry, I am somewhat hesitant to add commentary. But I think the stats for the basic Fire Warriors is missing? Indeed they are missing, should be there unchanged from third phase. Also the "skyraysxzasa" upgrade on Heavy Suits loo... |

| Another miss. The pathfinder formation is missing the recon upgrade option and I have apparently given it access to the pathfinder upgrade from the old list. That should go away and the available upgrades should be gun drones, recon The recon upgrade should read add up to three tetras for +25 points... |

| Had a look through the list some likes and queries. The price drop on Pathfinder formations, with or without Devilfish, is very attractive. And it is in the core choice section. My thoughts are that the price drop is needed with the loss of the ubiquituos recon formation, Riptides and the other Hea... |

| Thanks for your thorough analysis of the statistics Andrew. This is how it's been for me as well, I also almost exclusively just take one small formation for the Shas'o. They seem to only work if you go heavy on them with several formations. preferably in an orca or two. I think this is a minor chan... |
