I just got a job that pays $8. I'm a lifeguard at the ymca!
I can now pay for a farsight army! WOOT!


$8? Sure, maybe in a few years you'll have it, as long as you don't have any expenses over $10.


I'm fairly certain he means $8/hour. Don't get a girlfriend though; she'll eat through half your money and all your time.

No kidding.
I have problems with my mom, who likes to be showered with gifts, let alone worry about the rest of my family plus friends.

XV-22 mounted commander as a regular option, not spec char only

Or, you could just convert and the XV-22 into a regular "count as" commander suit. No big deal right?

I want to see some more infantry, not of the battlesuit kind.

I don't count the Ethereals, sniper drones, or attack drones because they are different. The drones are quick attack, no point, expendable units that can be used for quick assaults, but the snipers prove to be more useful in fulfilling an firewarrior-like-role in laying down some heavy fire. The Ethereal can't do much besides wish his friends good luck and maybe get into some close combat, which isn't the best idea. I appreciate stealth suits, but not pathfinders. Pathfinders to me are just quick attack infantry that are at least 120 points and can lay down some heavy fire if needed, but these points are better put into drones that have the same capabilities.
I don't specifically know what I want in a new infantry unit, but like...Tau special forces? A mix of stealth suits and fire-warriors.

Gun drones are good.

They are Maneuverable, Can move and fire, reroll first time shot misses and have a chance of pinning.

But I do understand what you mean about not counting them.
What army do you play?

I know they are good, but I don't consider them infantry. When I say you don't count them, they aren't a scoring unit.
I have a 500 pt Tau army, but haven't gotten the chance to use it yet.

Hm. Well Personaly I think so far that the Tau army is pretty well done. They dont really need any more units. They might expand on the Kroot a little. That would be cool, but only like.. a LITTLE.

Hey there is a thought. Take some Kroot Mercenaries alongside your Tau if you want something interesting.

I have been looking at them and they are actually quite good.

Second thought.. damn.

Tau are restricted from having mercenary allies. xd
