Welcome to June... The birds are singing, the kids are getting all antsy because schools almost over, time to start getting them into the games stores to spend...... huh?!?!?!? $82.00 for a Stormraven...... $75.00 for a Land Raider...... I don't play marines thank god, and unless you completely change the Tau Codex I think my 6 Fire Warrior Squads, 2 Kroot Squads, Vespids, , hammerheads, devifish..es, and full farsight bomb number of crisis suits, plus a lot of other extraneous Tau stuff should hold me over for a good long time to come. Good luck getting new players to buy in with those kinda prices when they can get into a few other games at a Tournament level for a fraction of the cost of a 40K army.
Dear Games Workshop,
Your department that determines pricing has apparently been drinking on the job.
Thank you
-John Q. Public.
P.S. You can price yourselves right out of a market, its been done in a lot of industries and it is very hard to recover from. That kinda rep sticks.
Sorry, this was supposed to auto post June 1, 2012......

Mobile Gunline test results
In the past I have always had trouble with Tau gunline armies. It always seemed that I either couldnt move out quick enough when the enemy came to assault me or I couldn't take advantages due to openings. I also found myself usually lacking light vehicle popping abilities. I used a mix of Gunline and not Gunline today and well, for the first time I tabled my friend. I think I found my list for the RTT at For The Win games in Richmond. Here is the list, I hope it works good Saturday
