Hey guys and gals, I had an idea for the new tau dex. We all know Tau suck in cc. But what if to help them at least stand a chance we give not just the vehicles flechette dischargers but we give them to the battle suits also. Flechette dischargers are: On a 4+ any model assaulting a vehicle with Flechette dischargers takes a wound. I think as an upgrade they would help battle suits survive tremendously. It wouldn't make them any better in close combat it would just make it easier to survive if they get charged. Tell me what you think

They'll still bounce of my power armour just fine!

I honestly don't think Tau need any kind of boost in CC. Folding in hand to hand is their weakness, and I'm honestly tired of codexes with superficial weaknesses

It might be better to just make a kind of specialized CC battlesuit. That would totally make my year.

Except it's completely against the Tau's MO. Leave close combat up to alien auxiliaries.

Crisis suits don't need flechette.
They will boost kroot slightly (at the very least 6+ armor automatically) and have a new meat wall, like demiurg.
Crisis suits (and the army as a whole) just need to shoot better. Give Crisis suits BS4 standard. I would be happy then.

mmmmm nah, I dont think so. Tau need to suck in CC, just buff them more in other ways.

Closest we have is the FW XV-9 series. Dual TL BCs, or better yet, dual PIGs, VTs, PGs...
