| link, if you please? with basing on tabletop 40k I can only think of making them cheaper, as ionhead is cheaper then hammerhead in 40k - but this can be problematic in tau situation(small fms) - maybe work it out making it "4 rail/fusionhammers or 6 ionhammers for 200. and 6/9 for 300" wit... |

Quote: Ions are a lost cause, there really isn't any use for them that the rail or other units fill with the latter having other advantages.
why no one mentioned it before list was frozen, then? |

I'm personally thinking about this:
hammers 6 300
hammers 6 300
hammers 6 300
stealth 250
8FW+ethereal+gun drone 325
hammers 6 300
crises+shaso 350
manta 675
hero 200
and using 2 of the 4 hammer formations as fusionhammers. |

Do you use it? If so - how, and in what lists? Mixes in units anyone?
I personally feel that Fusionhead offers some other ground force solution of MW lack, but 30cm is a bit harsh. maybe mix-in with regulars? |

| Skimmers out the front of formations also helps to minimise the power of units like Terminators with 3+ vs smth like 5+ it helps?(I understand, that without FW-in-DFs losses'd be lighter) Also, does use of massed piranhas(like 9) as skorpfish replacer have any strategic use? But the way air assault... |

2The_Real_Chris
Shall I stick up a draft of what I think the 5.1 could change to as an alternative to the more sweeping Markerlight change? (So current list + FW change + other changes flowing from that + removal of APGM).
I personally want to see it ASAP.) Go on, Chris! |
