40 Facts & Lore on Tau Battlesuits: KX 139 Ta'Unar Supremacy Armor Warhammer 40k. 

As a mecha fan i really want to have this one. Looks awesome, i like how they managed to lean the Tau suits towards japanese mecha yet maintained their own unique design feel and appearance.

Why fight in close combat if you can reduce an entire squad into poop smears at range in seconds! Hell as much as a love beating nasty xenos like a kettle drum, painting the ground with your enemy's entrails is SATISFYING!!!!

TAU are like subtile Orks... a suit doesnt work ? put more rocket pods and cannons on it xD

According to lore his defense system is able to withstand titan grade weapons, in my book this gaint mech suit won my over! 🤩 with name, lore, design/size and functionality. This mech suit is awesome!

Nice video, but you're missing the part where the Fragmentation Cluster Shell Launcher is only half of that weapons package. The other half is possibly the Ta'unar's most potent weapon, the Heavy Rail Cannon. More powerful than even the Manta Missile Destroyer's Heavy Railgun, the Ta'unar's Heavy Rail Cannon is effectively a starship class weapon mounted on a Battlesuit, capable of ripping through Titans and the most gargantuan of Tyranid beasts. Firing a single heavy slug, the round causes a small area of devastation wherever it hits. Furthermore, due to an advanced targeting system known as Mass-induction Targeting, the Heavy Rail Cannon is doubly as effective as its Manta born counterpart at inflicting devastating hits to Gargantuan and Titan class targets. Furthermore, with the advanced weapons control system incorporated, the suit can fire both back mounted Heavy Rail Cannon and Cluster Launchers simultaneously at different targets, unique to this weapons package.

Truly this is a war machine of epic proportions

My inner space communist weaboo has ascended inside me

Used one of these up against a reaver and it took off 15 hull points on one turn! Brilliant peices of Tau engineering :P

Suggestion: Necro titans (or any other obscure/lesser known xenos super constructs)

KY 139 Tuna Supreme, now with less cheese! Seriously though, it's a good Tau Apocalypse unit, very fluffy, good crunch. Looks better than the Stormsurge.

Question: SoundAlchemist, if you could get your hands on a Kx139, how would you set it up? Like what weapons would you pick and why? Thanks 😊

Thanks for the great video- I'm not a big fan of the Tau, but it's nice to see how excited you get just talking about them. I'm really looking forward to seeing your Celestial Suns army in it's entirety- the studio that you have painting them is awesome, and so far, the lore is pretty cool, too. Nice job, man- and keep up the great work!

Il take it on in a GM!

QUESTION: Does it seem lore wise, the tau have plateaued in technology? GW introduces new units as merch expands, but no real lore that points toward like self sustained energy or new wave Tau tinkering.

The Dai-X still beats all the GW walkers....

Suggestion: Imperial Guard ground vehicles. (Tanks, APCs, Sentinels, Artillery, etc)

Nice paint job sir.

I no longer play, but i love this model.

Suggestion: The Reasonable Marines!

just finished painting one of these :)

Great vidéo more Tau plz

I don't know about this one....it looks less like Gundam and more like MechWarrior

SUPER GUNDAM!

I wish they would make a plastic one

... i want this RTS .. i neeeed this RTS!

I know what's better than this battlesuit the LED Mirage from Five Star Stories.

Suggestion: tyranids

Imperial vs Tau fights are now basicaly MechWarrior. Imperium has knights and titans, and Tau have big BS.

Better than a Warhound? Am i smelling a traitor in our midst?

This sorta gives me titanfall vibes for some reason

it 's1000 pts now and has 30 wounds

Comment. Coud You do avond video on the tau kv129 strom surge an the klas of New suits noon as ballist suits???

Question/ So I’m thinking about starting another army and between Imperial guard or orcs or I found my old models of tau what do you guys think I should use?

its only me who want to put a red muscle car as a head onto a KX 139, and paint it blue with flames?

I actually prefer Votoms and Patlabor. Always looked at 40k as not my thing but the Tau kept my attention, like that girl in math class that ended up being a constant distraction. Killteam just pushed me to look into the game lore and models... will it end here or am I on the line and getting reeled?

I’m worried about him being pretty much made useless like all the other titans, however he is in a very nice place for 9th edition, very tempting to make a tau army but I’ll have to find a way to make it so I’m not playing that stereotypical tau as it’s the whole reason I decided against tau

Tau are geting stronger and stronger or Im imagineting things

This is a thicc shooty boi

gundams would run laps around them nd kick ass

how about Psyker Inquisitor(declared excomunicste traitoris of course) teaches Earth Caste of Tau much of what they know about the Warp?

Better than a Gundam? Nah.. There are a lot of single Gundam's that could take out entire Tau Battalions with relative ease

stupid Thumbnail. Gundams are better because they were built by SACRED HUMANITY THE TRUE RULERS OF THE STARS that aside I prefer Gunpla cause I can't paint hahaha

Metal Gear is calling XD

Tau navy please

Suggestion for a topic. TAU MANTA DROP SHIP.

How tall is this monster? This behemoth looks like 25-50 km

MiniWarGaming!!!

How big is this compared to Imperial titans?

only 10 wounds?

is it just me or do the hip joint mechanism seem overly exposed from the front on most tau battle suits?....i love the look of the tau suits...but it seems kinda pointless having a crazy mech when a infanty squad with heavy weapons could realistically take out its legs with a missle or plasma blast.....

i want one and i don't even play/own tau

Gundams were better? Well if it's a fight in space, maybe mobile suits would beat them

Suggestion: more dakka.

Like your vids... but Gundams still better lol.

I say many gundams and defenly the wel knowen 1 whitch play big parts in the story are better but this stil is 1 very cool model And no I don't try to hate I just think wen we look at the technische advanced of gundams and warhammer 40k that the gundam have better tech in general so that's way day wil win

The Tau have now achieved more dakka.

+1

I could think of a bunch of different gundams that could beat Tau battlesuits into the dirt

liked,even though tau

WAAAAGH!!!!!

Gundam are still better u_u

Sees title card: "Me. I said Gundams are better."

This thing looks like they covered it in glue and dropped it in a bitzbox filled with weapons. XD

did you said the s word

I almost like this battle suit..... buttt like all tau battle suit 1 they are made by tau 2 THEY CAN'T FIGHT IN HAND-TO-HAND FACE-TO-FACE COMBAT

I said gundams were better

I said Gundams are better.

very much lacking in dakka.

Screw a Gundam 🗡😎

Suggestion : tyranids
