The rules look really fun actually.
Holy hell that is awesome. I want it. Hell I will just use mine as one of these from now on.
I think it's a pretty funny rule set actually. It does have a tendency to scream 'broken' but who ever plays against FW anyway? It basically massacres infantry in the game once you pair it with your Ignores Cover, Twin-linked general. I sense a revision down the line here.
On the other hand, I'll probably use one as my regular riptide and swap out the arm for the shield army for WYSIWYG. I think the head adjustment just fits better here.
That makes me wish I had the money to spend...
Well, I have the money... I just don't want to use it on this :'(
Definitely getting this one.
I greatly look forward to being the one with the 'broken' unit. Sure the Tau have tricks, but hardly anything I'd call broken...

I used this thing the other week. It is EVIL. With the drones and Stims and something else, you can easily break the 360 point mark, but it is tough as all hell and those blasts will shred anything they touch.
Yep. It's broken. Damn those rules are nasty.
I wouldn't say broken. It can be one of the most expensive units in the game very easily.
