That seems like it can be addressed with a points increased for a weapon option if necessary. Looking at the three options I'd say the Heavy Rail Cannon is the best, followed by the MW guided missile, then a 3BP Ind Multi Driver. The BP won't get your points back as quick as the other two.

The 3BP can't hit your deployment zone T1, so it's not like a Void Spinner. 225 points seems fair enough.

I agree it's a list favorite that sees a lot of use. But on its face, I dont see anything wrong with that. Most, if not all lists, have units and selections that more competative and preferred.

I haven't seen examples of it being especially abusive or overpowered, though I'm open to seeing where that's a possibility.

As Dave mentions, at its 90cm indirect, it's a minimal threat for an alpha strike that can be easily avoided by smart deployment.

Looking forward to see how you guys will stress test and break the list!

Things I'll be looking at are spamming pathfinders as a core formation, especially backed by Supremacy or heavysuits. There's a 13 activation list with 6 pathfinders I want to try that might be a bit much. Also, a list with as many heavy suits as possible needs to be tested.

Time will tell again, but now that it is back to BP, should not also get it back the rule of not being able to benefit from Markerlights? Even if it can be avoided hitting on 2+ is a bit too much and was the main concern of the weapon power-wise and dealt with quite quick.

This rule never changed. BP is unaffected and does not benefit from markerlights for Tau. That applies to both the Supremacy Suit and the Sunshark bombers.

The army list pdf lists that at the top.

Oh, ok. I expected to see that on the rule of the weapon itself instead on the organization of army part as GW separated special rules like that. Thanks for the clarification.

Hi, we've just been playing the Viorla list and upon going over it in battle noticed a couple things.
1) no stat lines for gun drones
2) devilfish don't have transport options listed. This came up as in particular the shas O is listed as infantry and has speed of normal firewarrior but also has the save of a crisis suit so we wondered if it can be transported in a devilfish.

Thanks

hi, just a question about Orca, do Broadside take up two slots or one slot each?

Broadsides take up one spot each in both Vior'la and Third Sphere lists.

Imacie - thanks for catching that! I'll add the drone statline and update the pdf.

I'll fix the Devilfish entry as well. The idea for the Shas'o is that he has upgraded experimental armor, but isn't in a crisis suit. You'll see it doesnt have the jump pack rule. It's a unit, instead of a CH upgrade, it so restricts the formation that it can be used in, since it wouldn't fit with crisis suits, losing the mobility. It also doesnt retain the basic firewarrrior weapon statline.

It would be great

The PDFs seems broken after the updates, might they be uploaded anew?

A big thank you!

Those are very nice!

The Pulse Submuinition cannon had 2x stat AND there are 2 of them , is it meant to then fire twice per cannon? In other words , does it amount to a total of 4 shots ?
