I don't think the Tau really need an adjustment to their weapons. With their vehicle upgrades they can fire as if they are fast vehicles, and if you keep the gun drones you can move 12in and fire everything on a devilfish. The only Tau vehicles that would change much would be the hammerhead and Skyray with SMS. If they plan on changing defensive weapons with a new edition the Tau would need new vehicles entirely to take advantage of this.

I think S4 is good, but I can't see a vehicle thats guns are ALWAYS stable not being able to fire.

I think it's stupid.

My 2 and a half cents.

Says the kid who makes a Plasma weapon with 30+ different types of firing modes.

I`m sorry, but i have to agree with Impaler. Your ideas always get shot down pretty fast, and your usual answer is that it`s not "constructive" and now this?
Gwars rule have a great deal of more sense than most of your ideas, so it`s stupid to call his ideas stupid, even if you write "i think".
Could Solon and anyone being rude/mocking others ideas just make the effort to say "I don`t think that`s a rule i would use" and then add why you wouldn`t use it.
Cheers

I've added the other races to the list (bar Tyranids/Necrons/CDaemons) who dont need it, and fixed the HBS problem.
