Hello , i want to start collect my second army ( i have necrons btw. ) and i was wondering about demons and tau.
I like them becouse :
Deamons : lots of MC and psychic power
Tau : lots of shooting ^^

Wich one do you recomend me ? I know that deamons are one of the difficult armys to learn to play but im noob a beginer so dont worry ^^
I heard that deamons can easly win or easly be beaten ^^
And tau i heard that tau with good player can beat everyone

Can you help me pls ?

I play and love daemons.... Mr. Kelly stuck true to his theme of "I'll give them a good army, but they have to work for it". Plus some really cruel funny stuff can happen throughout the course of a game.

Tau are the Napoleon of warhammer 40k..... line up, shoot, repeat process.... use vehicles as cavalry charge, retreat, line up, shoot again. I find them very stale and boring

Go with tau , Tau will be good in this and next edition and are far less random then demons. Demons are nice now , but a change to flying MC or anti air can hurt them a lot . If GK become realy good in the future demon will get hurt again. Tau can't be made worse , specialy tau+eldar and tau+farsight, unless GW errates half of their codex

Przy okazji ryboludzie mają więcej battle brother ally , niż demony .

I have to say Daemons because as a Tyranids player I hate Tau and those evil enough to play it.

Daemons. I'm biased.

It depends what you are looking to get out of your army. If your goal is to win, then opt for the metagame kings: Tau. If you are looking for a challenging yet powerful army, go for Daemons.

If you would play Tau as a static gunline then stop right now - thank you very much. Save yourself and your opponent the pain of playing some very dull matches. Alternatively, if you'd like to mix it up with crisis suits, kroot, devilfish, stealth suits, etc.. then buy all means have a blast with Tau.

I voted daemons purely because they are the least common of the two and you will find opponents more willing to play against you.

Daemons. Several different ways to play them depending on how you feel on any given day. Tau will always be hiding in a corner behind a wall

It's always a treat to see a Daemon army on the table.

Daemons are much more fun to play against, so they got my vote.

If you're looking for a good time (for you and your opponent) then Daemons are a better choice.

Tau are a very strong army though.

Personally, I'd go with Daemons.
