Hey guys,
Having been working on a space marine project I realized the other day that I have not had a game with my tau since the new codex came out!
Previously I had a 1500pt force so with point reductions I figured 1000pts would be a good place to start.
Any C&C would be extremely welcome.
HQ - Commander - Fusion Blaster, Plasma Rifle, Early Warning Override, Vectored Retro-Thrusters - 140pts
Elites - XV8 Crisis Battlesuits x 3 w/ Plasma Rifle, Missile Pod, Early Warning Override - 171pts
Troops - Firewarriors x 9 w/ Pulse rifles, Devilfish -161pts
Troops - Firewarriors x 9 w/ Pulse rifles, Devilfish - 161pts
Fast Attack - Pathfinders x 6 w/ Pulse Carbines + Markerlights - 66pts
Heavy Support - Hammerhead Gunship w/ Railgun, Submunitions, Smart Missile System, Blacksun Filer - 131pts
Heavy Support - XV88 Broadsides x 2 w/ Twin-Linked Heavy Railgun, Twin-Linked Smart Missile System, Velocity Tracker - 170pts
Total 1000pts
Alternatively I could drop a devilfish and rejig my commander to run with drone controller and a gun drone squad. I would lose a bit of protection on the fire warriors but a load of bs5 twin-linked str5 shots could pack a lot of offensive power, with the 8pt drone controller becoming a steal.
Cheers!
