    I *might* have time to finish painting my army by next OFCC... We will see😂

    There is no finishing army painting.  Only a moment's reprieve before the next phase begins XD

  2. Hey, Folks!  I am going to try and do some converting this year for OFCC.  Me?  Converting?!  I know!!!  As a part of this process I'm looking at needing to strip paint off of some forgeworld broadsides.  This is very new territory for me and I'd really appreciate some words of wisdom on how to go about doing that so I don't damage/dissolve the resin models while stripping them.

  5. Heya, folks.  I'm trying to dial in on what I want to run for OFCC this year.  It's coming fast.  I swear it comes faster every year.  So need to figure out what I'm running...and in turn what I'm painting.  I'm going to post two lists below this as separate posts.  Please let me know which you would find more FUN to play against.

    It was awesome to get to play against 2 members of this team! Great people, great games! I even gave my favorite opponent pin to a certain Tau player who can't kill a Mawloc. :P Glad y'all made it home safe.

    You hush. I will have my revenge upon the mawloc next year! BLOOD FOR THE BLO...I mean...for the greater good!!!

  7. Team D have all made it home safe and sound!

    I've seen a thank you thread that mostly seems to be oriented towards 9th Age, so I'm going to just put this here.  I want to thank the HoG, the Ordo senators, and everyone who helped make this OFCC possible.  It was laid-back, easy going, fun, and an absolute blast.  In short, it was completely worth the trip out there and I can't wait to see everyone again next year!

    Well, the good part is not having to worry about effectiveness since it is the team event! :) 

    I just converted my 7th list to 8th and it's probably a lot less effective (which was already a low bar).

    Fair heheh. Just wanna make sure I give good games :) and yeah I hear ya on the comversion issue. points and usefulness for Tau units got changed about pretty dramatically.

    As far as I know, OFCC is always painted only.

    Indeed it is. 7th edition one will be fully painted as the official one for the event. Just don't have the time to paint an 8th edition list too. Worst comes to worst I'll cobble something together from painted models. The effectiveness will just take a nasty hit. Sad face! I'll ask the HOG though.

  10. I will bring an 8th edition list, however I do not have the time to get it fully painted and might possibly have to proxy a little for any opponent who would rather play 8th (which I am more than happy to do).  There are actually no overlap in models between my 7th and 8th edition lists so I may have to make some sacrifies in the latter just getting models from OH over there to play.  Wish me luck! LOL.

  11. Hello, all!  I've been trying to formulate a 2k Tau list that can work as a take all comers in my local meta without being "That" guy.  You know the guy.  Local meta right now consists of a few space marine/chaos marine varieties, some fledgling tau, Xavier's orks, and 2+ Astra Militarum players.  The list below is what I've been putting together so far with the idea to bring my beloved kroot finally back to the table, and fire warriors are a good and more solid anti-infantry presence, but having looked at the ork , AM, and knight-containing lists popping up I'm concerned I don't have enough legit anti-tank.  Outside opinions are welcome cause I can mull over this all day and not really get anywhere with so much of my current play-style grounded in 6th and 7th.

  12. Not weird at all heheh. From what I've gleaned so far points-size for lists should be around 2000 but at this juncture no one really knows since we haven't seen point values for units yet. As for playing the bad guy, in the 41st millenium who ISN'T the bad guy?

  13. Jeff's got his Tzeentch sorcerer list he's planning on taking to OFCC.  I'm still working on mine though mine's more half new than new.  Not sure what Sean's current project is.  I think a space marine armored company.

    As a regular Tau general I can certainly speak to how much i like the Ghostkeels.  No one seems to play with them.  they arent as "broken" as th Y'Varah suits are which is probably why, but its still odd.  they are a lot of fun and they can take on lots fo different types of threats.  Still iffy at best in melee (You'd think being an MC would be cool, but WS 2 is still what it is).  I really like them.  I play with 5-6 Stealthsuits in my units because I freaking love those models also.

    The list seems intelligent to me.  anti air, anti-horde, anti-elite, lots of Obsec units, mobility and so on. Crisis for AV 14.  I think it looks pretty good. 

    Thank you for the feedback :). Yeah I do like the ghostkeel models quite a bit.  I stopped running them soon after getting them due to them being unfriendly to the large number of new players I'd had in the area at the time.  Said players have become all growed up since then though and this is kind of the last hurrah for the 'keels in 7th.

    As stealth suits go I have always loved the models though I generally have trouble fitting them into lists.  In this case it was a mix of I didn't want to increase the power of the Optomized Stealth Cadre too much more by adding more stealth suits into the formation, and I wanted to take the remoras too which competes for that same 180 some-odd points.
