Alright so this is probably one of the meanest list i have ever built. I manage to cover down on some of the holes i had in my previous list. Well i will post updates later on and do summaries of the game to complrte the report. Lmk how you all think i will do.

Tk out!

Get off dakka and go to sleep Brett

damn dude

We spent two hours in the BW3s from hell and you go back and log into dakka

I have an excuse, I'm still eating my onion rings

I see you're doing pretty hot! Win it so I can brag about how I beat you and vicariously beat everyone else! :p

Also good luck dude!

Hope you did well Brett! I heard on Signals from the Frontline that you had a solid game versus Frankie. Can't wait to hear how that went.

P.S. That list is freaking BRUTAL!

I love this list Brett, You basically get the great part of Tau and replace crisis suits with jetbikes for competitive viability!

Saw the game vs. Frankie, ouch!

Yea.... I played poorly against frankie and then rolled poorly on top of that. I should of taken first turn... I had a little bit of a brain fart and misinterpreted my cover as well. Basically I lost every facet of the pre-game. I played much better in the open as I got back into my grove.

Yeah - to be fair it should have been made clear that the hills were open as opposed to 5+ before the game. Any chance of seeing some game reports from the open?

I will try to at least post the list and a brief summary of how the game went... work has been kicking my arse lately so no guarantee's on how quick I get them done.

I'm really curious to hear about the Remoras!
