They'll update the current MFM with the correct Tau points once the codex is out for everyone as they did for Dark Angels which should be in about a months time?

Cheers, M The Deathwing boxed set went on pre-order on January 20th, whereas the Dark Angels Codex itself went on pre-order on February 24th, 5 weeks and almost as close to exactly a month later as possible...

On the other hand, out of the previous five army sets released, Flesheater Courts (Winter 23/24), Cities of Sigmar (Autumn 23), Slaves to Darkness and Astra Militarum (both Winter 22/23) all had a 2 month gap between the box and the standalone battletome. Seraphon (Summer 23) was one month. Hopefully Tau will be one month as well and it becomes the new norm but, as is usual with GW, we can't be sure when it will come out because there isn't a consistent pattern. skylerboodie 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheArtilleryman Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 (edited) Lots of these already on pre-order from eBay sellers. The one I’ve screenshotted says it will ship 2 April. Although this might just be people selling on the books from the Kroot box of course Edited March 28 by TheArtilleryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New TAU need updated points to play and to be playable. MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheArtilleryman Posted Monday at 02:37 PM Share Posted Monday at 02:37 PM Interesting that T’au got a vehicle where other new combat patrols have not - this bucks the trend I thought we were going to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNCenturion Posted Monday at 02:38 PM Share Posted Monday at 02:38 PM That’s a pretty nice combat patrol. If you can buy multiples and have it still be useful that’s key for me. MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfran Morkai Posted Monday at 03:03 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:03 PM (edited) Hmm, guess I'd best start thinking about getting an intro game in given I've not played since 2010-11. This Combat Patrol will expand my current Combat Patrol and extra Stealth Team nicely, especially if I pick up a few more Devilfish for a mounted force. I think I've got a Pathfinder Kill Team, a Strike Team and some XV15s laying around too.

TheArtilleryman Posted Monday at 03:27 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:27 PM (edited) It would be good for starting out but luckily it’s not good enough for me to feel like I’m missing out. Another point to note - it’s got a £135 value in terms of the separate kits whereas the old box was worth £161.50. So not as good value as the old - shrinkflation at work… Edited Monday at 03:27 PM by TheArtilleryman MithrilForge and skylerboodie 1 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are many people wanting to field multiples of these things typically? Because the current one seems good (hence why I grabbed one) but this one seems useful to purchase multiples of if you want mounted troops. I haven't played the game in over a decade so it may very well be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't played the game in over a decade so it may very well be the case. The core of my 10th ed Tau force is the old CP. The new one does fit into the fish of fury playstyle which the mont'ka detachment fits nicely. So the new CP is a decent one to purchase at least twice if your just starting out or even if your pivoting to the possible next step in the meta.

It really does suck that the cost of entry is going up to receive less. skylerboodie and TheArtilleryman 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially I had just written about the Ethereal and the Fireblade but then I asked myself, how many of the other bits would I LIKE to field myself multiples of? For the Stealth Team, yes because I want to work on a Recon Cadre based around Stealth Teams and Pathfinders. But I also acknowledge I've been away for editions, when I last played you had 1-2 HQ, 2-6 Troops and 0-3 each of Elites, Fast Attack, Heavy Support. I also don't really know what these units do or how T'au play these days. Edited Monday at 10:49 PM by Hfran Morkai Made my post easier to interpret.

MithrilForge Posted Tuesday at 01:45 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:45 AM Happy to Finally see the Codex getting released,although I’m sad that there was the inevitable asterisk on it saying delayed in New Zealand & Australia …. Time to be the patient Hunter The new CP box is good for repeats for sure, about time they put reusable core in their boxes (luckily though that Tzaangors are not T’AU allies ) M phandaal 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't really know what these units do or how T'au play these days. Nowadays you can take whatever you want, up to 3 of each unit. Troops are now called battleline and you can take up to 6 of each unit. So you could take 3 ghostkeels, 3 units of stealth suits and 6 units each of fire warriors and breachers. I think my opinion on this is very much just about the models I like. Everyone is talking about the devilfish and breachers combo this edition but I don’t really like the models for the tau tanks, so that’s why I prefer the old one. At least there is no ethereal this time; I always felt that model was a bit surplus to requirements. The lore around ethereal is great, but in battle I’ve always found them a little underwhelming.
