Just to save typing it out more than already has been done - The points used in this game were using the current Munitorum Field Manual where applicable, *not* the Codex points. We've seen every single Codex released in 10th so far have their points invalidated with an update before it goes on general sale, but GW does not send us that information- we get it the same time as you guys. As such we will use the current MFM where possible, with the only exceptions for new units or loadouts. So in this game the Crisis Suits use the points in the Codex, whilst something like the Riptide uses the current MFM points. This is, in our opinion, the fairest and most sensible way of using the Codex, as frankly most 10th Codexes have very minimal changes to their units from the Index, whilst those units have often received points changes already, and nothing in the Codex warrants them returning to their Index costs. We've seen it 6 times now, and we'll see it again in future I'm sure. So don't panic, your Riptide is not suddenly an extortionate 265pts 😅 -Chef
congradulations u did the impossible u won with the new tau. although ive never lost with old tau to orks for record they used to be easier to fight than nids even
Whenever people ask me my favorite 40k matchup, I always tell them Bard and Beard. The Humor and energy is unmatched to any other content creators. 10/10 would laugh again.
“I do have my invulnerable save… oh bum…” 🤣🤣 honestly, you guys are fantastic with your battle reports. I’ve only had a couple of games in the community league but I’ve really enjoyed being a part of it!
Something helpful for shadowsun, she has 2 High-Energy Fusion Blasers, so she should be getting 2 attacks with that. I think every shooting phase with her you were only rolling 1 die. It gets me too sometimes because of how the sheet is laid out
Folks, as someone who came into this game this edition as a T’au player I have been feeling super down about the negativity this book has been met with, but as always you’re positivity and honesty about what works and what doesn’t and your clear love of the game has perked me right up. Thank you!
It's perfectly natural that people will complain when a new codex comes out. You'd have thought the tombworlds had fallen with the doom and gloom from the Necrons community when ours came out. Look how that's turned out.
I think I love that 10th hasn't felt like each codex is abusively OP each release, and we know what the power level should feel like (loosely) on index. People have been very down on a lot of stuff lately because it's what they've been yelling for - fair and balanced and no power creep 🤷🏻♂️ Im still finding some cool stuff in the Dark Angels book I want to play with
@winsol For sure. Topping tourneys and honestly difficult to face these days. I loved their codex. Even the Annihilation Legion makes me smile and I don't even play them haha.
Shadowsun shooting only one of her TWO high energy fusion blaster the whole game had me thinking she got a nerf in the codex. But she was just going easy on her enemies
Bard as a fellow follower of the greater good I picked up miss thighs was shooting only one of her 2 fancy fusions, you did it last batrep but after seeing this excellent showing thought I'd bring justice to our beloved girl
Extra style points for doing it while riding a speeding bike. Basically, the Marker light did become ineffective(as the Orks intended), but on other hand, some of them crashed, so the end result was the same. :D
yeah, i still dont like i cant make my own loadout anymore. alot of my crisis suits cannot be WYSIWYG anymore. I hate it, just bring back points for weapons...
@dicedoom7162 While I'm miffed that 3/4 of my suits are now "Legends", this was probably the push I needed to magnetize the things like I ought to have done three years ago.
Wasn't expecting to see the Waaaaugh of Jazzghkull Thraka! Haven't heard them since they played the Armageddon where he debuted "Greens in Orbit" with Duke Killington. An absolutely smashing show!
@@tabletoptactics Didn't make a difference at the time but it's handy to remember for sure! Which did you prefer between the Warboss in Mega Armour and the Big Mek?
Currently building a Tau army of 1515 points: 3 Broadsides 2 crisis suit teams (6 suits) 1 Coldstar 1 Shadowsun 1 Ghostkeel 1 Pathfinder team 1 Fire warrior/breacher team 2 Stealth suit teams (6 suits) 1 Fireblade 1 Ethereal 1 Kroot Trail Shaper 1 Kroot Hounds (possibly getting another) A ridiculous amount of shield, marker, assault, and missle drones
I enjoy your battle reports, especially the orks ones. But I have discovered my sixteen week old baby will very calmly lie back and listen to your whole video. It gives me a little bit of peace I so desperately need. So thank you
@@tabletoptactics I realised it might sound like I’m saying your videos are soporific. On the contrary, he sits there transfixed. I think his favourite, and mine, was the recent guard vs orks. It was certainly my favourite
I really like how that gray color scheme looks on Tau, which is the exact color used for the main gray on the Tau? I would like to replicate it. Thank you! :)
I’m curious with farsights new puretide’s teaching ability, what’s the best stratagem to use it on? Since it can only target battle tactics I was thinking the one that gives sustained, but with meltas being his best units to attach to, it feels a little odd
Are the army lists published anywhere? I'm looking to start a Tau army and wanted to use this one as inspiration. And maybe an ork army too - those little dreadnought things are too cute.
It’s a big change for sure. I personally really like it. You can take more crisis suits than ever before and each of the 3 units has their own role to play in the battle. It’s good stuff. We break it down thoroughly in our faction focus On Demand. - Beard
@@tabletoptactics On Round 2 right now. My biggest worry was Damage Output and Durability, losing the other 3 suits and the 3rd weapon systems and Shield Gens. But playing them more aggresively seems to make up for the loses. Also as I thought Starscythe seems to be the best of the two Anti Infantry, due to its high volume of fire versus the Fireknife.
While I’ve absolutely loved today’s battle report I wish you guys dropped a few more Age of Sigmar games here and there, loved watching my favourite Battle Reporters play my favourite system!
Unfortunately the interest and demand in AoS was just not enough to justify the cost of production for Battle Reports. We're hoping the new edition reinvigorates interest for us to revisit it 🙂
Great, now I can't stop thinking about Jazzghkull Thraka. Wonder which instrument he'd play... as a thoughtful ork, I like to think he'd be on the piano while singing
i just bought a Tau Codex, the shop keeper said it’s 10th edition but the hardcover has a different artwork than the blue one in the video, do they release two different artwork ?
Correct me if im wrong and its been changed in the new edition. Doesnt Shadowsun have 2 high energy fusion blasters? Think youve been halving her damage output! Greatly fun video all the same!

It just looks like a net positive. The 'make a big castle' style of T'au is poisonous.

Not one, but 2 Bizkit references in one battle report, god bless
I love watching these on a Saturday morning, you guys rock. :)
Thanks buddy! Hope you enjoy! - Bard
These battle reports are by far the best in the business, none of the others make me laugh cry so much I need to rewind it.
I remember Fire Knife and whatnot being in universe names for loadouts. Was back in 4th, I think.
Me too! Actually guided how I built my first suits (glued-in-place plasma & missile) 😅
yeah, i still dont like i cant make my own loadout anymore. alot of my crisis suits cannot be WYSIWYG anymore. I hate it, just bring back points for weapons...

Always a pleasure to watch your battle reports
Thanks for watching!

That Team Rocket send off was clutch in the ork voice Bard
Love the idea of orks just calling shadowsun, thundertheighs 😂 this is now cannon as far as I'm concerned 😂
Best player match up in 40k. Love the energy and fun you guys have.
Wasn't expecting to see the Waaaaugh of Jazzghkull Thraka! Haven't heard them since they played the Armageddon where he debuted "Greens in Orbit" with Duke Killington. An absolutely smashing show!
I will forever watch this duo play all the games!
every time I see your studio Tau army, I wanna start one myself. :D
Really well painted and most importantly, posed! Very impressive as always
Thank you! We love our tau armies. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Unexpected Limp Bizkit references on a saturday morning are what batreps should be about.
Your channel has the most beautifully painted models. Absolutely lovely.
1st time I see a video from you guys and I have to admit that watching you enjoy and laugh while playing made my day. I'll subscribe
For the greater good and also Waaaagh !! Because i play both 🙃🥳...this battlereport Will be Fun...thank you guys 😉😁
Enjoy!!! - Bard
I’m glad someone other than me is really enjoying the tau changes
Did Beard forget Meganobz get Dev wounds the turn WAAGH is called? Riptide would have been extra dead 😂
My bad 🙋🏻♂️

Soooooo Goooood!! love these guys when they play each other so much fun! Tao are looking pretty hot too
These models look Amazing, I've never had a desire to play Tau but you make it a little hard to resist, another great BR, thanks TT
Looking forward to seeing new rules in action, especially against orks. A real fire and ice conflict.
Wow! 😮 really love your paint scheme on the crisis (the tan ones). Can you share which paints you used please?
Excellent battlereport!
That turn 2 shooting phase was bonkers. Excited for the Tau.
It's Battlesuit O'clock baybeee!
Is there a list layout anywhere? I'm keen on seeing exactly what wargear and loadouts the T'au suits had?
i'm looking forward to trying out the new codex when mine arrives.
Zagtruck and Scrap Lord was ahead it's of time. Great show, shame it got cancelled
I absolutely love these two together! 😂😂😂
Bards laughing from 22:05 genuinely had me in tears laughing
Vengeance for Ke-ke-ke-Ken?!
[On an unrelated note, A Fish called Wanda has aged terribly!]
Just have to say - Beard's 'Waagh' was both beautiful and hilarious ❤
I appreciate.

Beard coming in with that Centaur fizz and flustering bard at around 1 hour and 5 minutes 😂

anyone know that the intro music is, loved the battle report.
Nice Limp Bizkit reference
That Tau army is absolutely gorgeous
love the banter, though I think that Beard is vying for the moniker of Bard. LOL

Great content as always, good to see Tau love (and ork fun)

Ive been one of those decrying the changes to suits. This is pre game so I will give it a watch and see what I think of them with actual play.

@29:00 what rule is that where the killa kan accidentally shoots Da scraplord
Bikes are toughness 6 now so if they were getting hit by str5 flamers AND they had the 'Ard As Nails strat wouldn't they be getting wounded on 6's?
He lucked out having Da Skraplord forget that he could use unbridled carnage, considering there wasn't a single five in that roll.
They seem just more exciting to play than before.
Definitely!

banging intro music ❤

Great, now I can't stop thinking about Jazzghkull Thraka. Wonder which instrument he'd play... as a thoughtful ork, I like to think he'd be on the piano while singing
An enormous trombone.
Love the interactions with you guys, great game, great fun. So is Deff Dred an Ork? :p
Beards mic went on the last battle report i watched he was using orks then aswell 😂
You didn't bring back the T'auga for this event T_T.
Commander Thunder Thighs 😂. My New Favourite Tau Model!!!
I'm looking to build my first army and cannot decide between these 2 armies. They both scratch different parts of my brain.
Is the Scrap Lord actually a Deff Dred or is it a model of its own?
It's mentioned before shadow sun gets two shots with her Fusion
Great batrep, love seeing all those suits on the board. Did you use the codex points for the list? I’ve heard they will probably go down?
That was the classiest waagh I've heard lol
Doesn’t shadowsun have two fusion blasters
Do you guys do much with spacewolfs
no one dare underestimates the vocal chords of Jazzghul Thraka
i just bought a Tau Codex, the shop keeper said it’s 10th edition but the hardcover has a different artwork than the blue one in the video, do they release two different artwork ?
Bard don't forget Shadowsun's 2nd Fusion.
Can't wait for the ork codex!
It's insanly amount of shooting for T'au. Tooks forever to roll the dieces
Correct me if im wrong and its been changed in the new edition. Doesnt Shadowsun have 2 high energy fusion blasters? Think youve been halving her damage output! Greatly fun video all the same!
Im looking forward to run the battlesuit detachment. Retaliation cadre seems super powerful and im excited to commit warcrimes.
You guys never fail to entertain, instant click.
Arent shadowsun and farsight literally direct opponents? How is it allowed to run them in the same list?
Well mechanically the rules allow it, but narratively they've worked together several times in fluff 🙂
