They were talking about how you can use a tank order to recreate the buff of the other regiment. Cadians get an order that lets them reroll the number of shots for turret weapons, whilst Catachans can use the reroll 1s tank order.

Oh sorry, my bad.

Catachan are still slightly better though. The Catachan doctrine always applies but the Cadian one only applies when stationary.

Yup. Of course Catachans come out ahead there, since they can move and still use the re-roll ones order and get their natural re-roll for number of shots, but Cadians cannot move and keep re-rolling ones. Still, Pask + overlapping fields I think more than make up for this relatively minor weakness.

Catachan do seem to be the best choice, although I really hate things that give you a bonus for staying still. I always feel obliged to use them, even when moving is the better choice.

Yep, Catachan jungle fighters, famed for their numerous tank regiment throughout the galaxy!

Best way to stay alive on a Death World is probably to stay in your tank!

I'd like to make a case for Tallarn, but movement is a far harder thing to show with numbers. The JSJ order can be really nice though, as is simply having increased movement.

I like Tallarn as well. The ability to move and fire is great.
