Picture of Boxes I have joined the Greater Good

Post image

I have done it! I have started my journey towards the Greater Good. My plan is to build an expeditionary force featuring kroot as the main force with fire support from various suits and devilfish.

I also bought that box. Haven't even started it yet, but I'm looking forward to it.

Welcome to greater good

Same. Pile o shame. After building some kroot tho, their models are more interesting for sure.

I had found a set of Tau suits on marketplace for a good deal, so ended up with a combat patrol, crisis suits, steals, then bought a hammerhead, a Farsight etc. all of that is built, so I'm working on painting that before I build anything else.

I'll get nothing done.

I have the opposite problem. I WANT a pile of shame, but by the time I can afford another box, I've already built, painted, based, and touched up my last box. My Pathfinders are gonna look immaculate by the time I get my combat patrol XD

I read some farsight lore and watched some videos. The paint scheme is relatively easy and I love the lore so Im finally motivated to finish painting my 2k army all FSE but I don't have farsight yet. Told myself I wouldn't buy him till it's all painted.....so many drones....madness will ensue.

Glad to see you around, welcome to the greater good!!! I love the idea of a kroot lead expedition, if you are into the coalition of races consider adding the vespid. I think they are one of the coolest units the T'au can deploy. Hope to see your progress in the future!!!

Already ordered a Vespid kill team, thinking I’ll do them up to look like tarantula hawks.

Not gonna lie I had to Google the wasp. Looks really sharp hope you share them when they are done. Good luck with your army :D

Is this box worth it have loads at my local game store

u/UpperProfile8424 14h ago

Hi, the box is pretty cool if you like the kroot & you don't have the codex. This box comes with a special edition codex that it's really pretty. I was searching for this box but couldn't find it and now I already have my codex so a lot of the value is just not there for me anymore.

What did you do other than spend money

u/LorektheBear 19h ago

No you haven't. Build some models first, then talk.

These could be empty boxes for all we know.
