Cool report Markconz!
Thanks for share it. It's always a pleasure to see these tau in action.

It was a fun game, though a bit one-sided. If only I'd have got the set-up assault off on the Manta turn 1 things could have been different.

I love that Andrew made his Manta models out of wood :)

Nice, alternative style report and photos.
And if Andrew scratch built his Tau vehicles from wood, I for one would love to know more . . .

Hi Ginger, some extra detail on the Mantas here: Tau Manta WIP

Some limited exports from the Tau Colony have helped address (gaming) economic imbalances.
Trade confirmation on returning Tau Merchant Cruisers indicate the components have arrived.
As yet no details of any successful combat operations.

On the game(s). I've been wondering whether I've had an easier time with Tau against Imperial Guard because of the larger numbers of infantry to line up the impressive AP firepower on. Looking at the EpicUK results suggests an even set of results. Against Orks through the Tau win ration is most impressive: win 78%, draw 11%, loss 11%. Assuming I am reading those results correctly.

Hmm haven't used my Orks against the Tau, maybe I'll have to give that a go, though it sounds like it might be pretty brutal!
