Subject: 40k Brawl! Farsight Enclaves Vs Tyranids 1850 Caledonian Practice Match Video Batrep
Today we have another practice match for Cally! This time my Nidzilla list Vs Coopers brand new Farsight enclave!
Lists are in the video, the mission is the round 2 match-up from the Caledonian rule pack: Primary is Purge the Alien (kill points). Secondary is the Maelstrom Mission – Cleanse and Control, and Tertiary is a combo of First Strike, Warlord and Line-breaker. (The tournament pack can be found here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wwx6tdsgidtkkcg/Caledonian%20Uprising%20RP%20v1.3.pdf?dl=0
Please enjoy and Happy Holidays for all! x

Yea baracudas are gross. I am trying to think what he could switch up for ML's. Skyrays come to mind but I don't know what he'd drop. I'd say a riptide and a baracuda maybe?

Actually I am not sure what O'vesa is really bringing to the list other then a 4th tide. Id drop her and one stimulant injector and keep the 3 cudas PLUS add 3 skyrays. Again, assuming cudas are FA, if they are heavy I don't know what to shift lol.
His list is nasty the way it is though.

He doesn't have any in this list ( thank god!) but if he had Im sure I would have got creamed even faster!
Barracudas are bs4 with disruption pods have 2+ jink saves, 2 burst cannons that ignore cover, a missile pod and an Ion cannon all for 145 pts.
They're bogus'ly good and when I'm not nidding it up, I'm flying one of those around the room muttering pew pew pew!
I'll do my best at cally man!
With regards to the barracudas, that's insanely good for a Tau flyer.
With regards to markerlight support, the army just isn't top-tier without markerlights. He needs to fit some in if he is serious about winning the whole tournament.

Personally, I'd drop O'Sheva and 1 barracuda for 2 skyrays and a unit of tetras w/DP. I'd also get some skyfire into the burstides, swapping out FNP or EWO to do so, if there are extra points available.
