I would love Tau to have a combat unit. Anything that can kill in hand to hand.

I would love it to be on good priced battle suits with power weapon and increased WS.

definite

I would like foot knight for my Bretonnians, so I can defend the castle walll in a siege for once.

A unit in 40k that can dish out damage in 40k has at least 1 of the following. IMHO <----------IMHO not looking for nerd rage just my opinion.

1) All power weapons
2) at least a 3 up armor save
3) WS 4

While I agree with the kroots 3 attacks on the charge they can do allot of damage. Mathematically they can’t kill an equal point space marine force.

15 Kroot charge against 10 space marines all vanilla no special weapons.
Marines will go first they will hit with at least 7 to 6 of their attacks Hitting on 3's.
They will wound and kill 5 to 4 leaving the kroot with 11 to 10 guys to swing back with.
They with 30 attacks will hit with 15 wound with 8 to 7 and kill 2 to 3 marines win.

I would like a unit of Kroot with 3 ups Hell if they had 4 ups I would be ecstatic. I would like a unit with staying power.



On a side note I played a game last night and I must say my Kroot worked the crap out of an Eldar player in combat. I killed 2 units of the Blade storming people.

Cultists , mutants , rengade guard , and undivded daemons and undivided greater daemons.

Undivided daemons? That's not really the way daemons work....

There are a few, like the Furies and those things that hang around the Word Bearers. But I agree, anything bigger than that is rather out of place.

AGREED

Make them more English than French! Armed with Sword and Board or Halberds/Great Weapons. Maybe "better" non knight units like dismounted yeomen/armored sergeants (like a 0-1 representing a kings trained guard or something!)

also bombards as a siege weapon! maybe limit the number of knights you can take since you'll be the laughing stock of the realm (until you shoot the castles with them )

OMG YES that would be awesome

AV14 tank for the Sisters of Battle. Armed with all flamers. Something Land Raider sized, but not quite a Land Raider.

Heh I think the DID have a bombard once back then.

its a shame GW seems to only stick with parts of french and english high medieval periods strapped together with ducktape when there so much more material



I wonder if Coastal Bretonnia is still the best navy of the old world. they need to have some sort of list variant

Orks need flash gits.
I mean USEFUL Flash gits.

Drop pods for sisters which produce sister termies, retributors, or penitent engines.
