All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).

Quoted from "The Defenestrator":
"Yes, I don't buy into the goody goody image the Tau PR machine has churned out . They're all dirty cold-blooded space-communists if you ask me! Besides, their shiny, selfless "we love everyone for the Greater Good" vibe is so unfitting for the "lulz we're all badass jerks" future of 40k. GW needs to play up their cold, calculating, "join us or die, and probably still die anyway" Borg-y style. That's just me of course."

Uh, 180 S4 shots at 18". 60 hits on average, 20 wounds (assuming you are T5), and you only have a total of 8 models with, not sure, 17 wounds between them? two or three rounds of shooting and you're gone.

Nope, assault 2 18". So at 18" that's 180 shots, 60 hits, 30 wounds, then a 3+ rerollable means 3.33 wounds, on average. You start taking morale checks after the first round of shooting, and I win pretty fast.
@despoiler52; MANZ, however many equal the points you spent. I charge, pop the wagon, and then open up a can of whoop-@ ss on your burna boyz, because when it comes down to it, if MANZ get no save and burnas get a 6+, the MANZ win. Because they have power klaws.
