the pay off of using seekers, after the costs of the skyray AND the pathfinders and setting them all up in the right places on the battlefield is not enough. They are not hard hitting enough… Hammerhead is a much more flexible tool, with solid shot rail gun rounds or submunition AND they can still use the markerlights from the pathfinders. Plus the hammerhead looks pretty too…

“…Knows a lot about Tau, especially how to remove dead models…”

Harsh. (But true :P)

“Have I got that right? Should I ask that any longer?” LOL, prime BoW T-shirt quote there.

Yeah, Tau Seeker Missiles aren’t really that good. I’ll admit Skimmer Tanks are handy, but that’s about it.

never played vs a skyray before. i can’t find fault in darrells logic or interpretation of the rules. it looks as if all six missiles can be fired in one turn if enough markerlights are used.
good vid today darrell

First of all, Homer Simpson could not design that. Second, Dark Eldar vehicles are the worst looking vehicles in the game. They look like the desert speeders Jaba the Hut used in Star Wars except worse. (I really hope they make those better with the new Dark Eldar). Third, I’ve played against Sky Rays and they never seem to do much. The disable a vehicle or two in some way but the amount of marker lights you have to fire to make them effective is ridiculous. I really don’t think they are worth it. Hammer heads are much better. I… Read more »

I would much rather have unlimited Railgun shots than 6 seeker missiles so I’ve never even used one plus to make it effective I would have to buy Pathfinders and I honestly have never found myself wanting more seeker missiles than the two that come with my Pathfinder’s Devilfish

I still demand the sexy female assistant !

If they’ve got infinate range, does this mean if there’s a table nearby with another Tau army playing in a different game, and they have a marker thingy, that you can fire onto that table, too?

HAHA… Best Darrell video to date.

In answer to the question, yes, you can use all of the missiles in a single turn if you have enough marker lights. That’s one of the reasons that pathfinders can take them 😀

Regarding it’s use: not in the question, but it probably isn’t as useful as it could be 😉

My only disagreement is that I think the Sky Ray looks very cool, better than any Chaos (Clearly spiky things don’t appeal to me.)

Otherwise there is no need for a Sky Ray – just add seekers to your other vehicles.

BTW – with all the weapons gleefully on display – why can it not carry troops? – It would have been good support for pathfinders if it could move and shoot.

i recommend just slapping two seeker missiles onto piranhas or some other vehicle it is cheaper and more effective because they can support the main army even if they are out of range (as s the case in some of my groups scenarios) and it is hella funner
