Point Taken!

We don't want to end up being like Star Fleet Battles: so far removed
from the General Populations conception of 'Canon' that we become
marginialized...more than we already are I mean ;P

We should definitely do approprite Stat Lines for any and all
ForgeWorld Tau Praetorians on the market. Even potential ones only
on the Scedule right now...they are the easiest to Design having EA
statistics already existing anyway!!

In that vein:
 has anyone else thought about using existing Tau BFG ships as......
.....................................
...... Tanks......?


(BTW: I actually was joking: on an order that large, everyone knows
they have Free Shipping :P)

the feel of the Tau and what is coming out as canon and instead kludge
concepts off HG or CAV figs...well I guess in that vein we should
place the Imperial Guard on hiatus. I certainly haven't seen a recent
Leviathan or Capitol Imperialis and could be hard pressed to find and
old model. For that matter, there is no Dropship model either
(well...there is the vehicle dropship for the Marines in current Epic:
Apocolypse). Or for that matter the Unicorn for the Eldar. Whoops!
Better put that brand new Beta book on hold too!

others could be pending. Heck, they're making an Eldar super-heavy
Deathspinner arty unit (Doomweaver) and a super heavy troop carrier
(mobile wraithgate) for Stormwind. So it is not beyond reason and
certainly not dismiss out of hand the other non-Titan option/position
out there. Hell, there is an Epic Orca model out there and most of
those designs I mentioned are based on the Orca. I'm sure most out
here and talented enough to mod the base design.
