Did a battle today!!!!
Tau vs. Harlequins
At first, I thought that I was going to get worked, as he had tanks with Template weapons, and the first turn was fairly ugly, I lost my Venom (there was just not enough cover) and I lost about 6 harlequin Troops some from the explosion, and others from the other template. Then it was my turn. I Took out one of the tanks with the Cannon, and the other I destroyed the weapon. Very lucky for me. Then it was just a matter of time. As he is primarily a shooty army. All but two of my jesters were armed with the shrieker cannons and they did a number with quite a few tau exploding and then there were the Bikes. The catapaults were very effective today for some reason. The solitaire charged one of his two suits, and I thought I was going to kill it, but believe it or not, I could not, and then I thought for sure that I was going to get squashed, but I was spared by the dice gods (praise be to the laughing god). Then I was charged in the rear by the other suit, and he missed as well, something about those Domino Fields gotta love em. Then the support came, a hole unit of 9 Troopers came to help the estranged one, and with thier help (like he needed it) killed the two suits.
It was fun, did not think I was going to do that well, has anyone else had this type of luck with the tau, or is this really just a mis-match. And it always happens that way?
