Not Exactly Mech Tau, but it does have a devilfish which for me is a rarity however in my past 3/4 games its ability to soften a squad while behind cover then FoF then to death.

Gun Drones are "Replacable Firewarriors", why waste troops who take 20+ years to replenish when you can waste frisbee doom!

TL-FB/MP monat deepstrikes with the Shas'O Positional relay....hopefully right in behind a tank/dreadnaught on turn 2.

Hopefully everything else is self explanitory, Deathrains for light armour, stealths for mass fire etc.

C+C welcome.

for a Mech list there sure is a deficiency of vehicles. anyways i like it for fluff reasons but not much else.

Cool list,
we all have our own idea of what we want in an army
one query though in regards to this selection -

"3) 1x Tl-FB/MP Team Leader with HW-MT"

why did you give him the multi tracker ...he cant use it as the fusion is twin linked thus counting as 2 wpns....so the missle pod has nothing else to shoot with...
unless im mistaken ??? or are you allowed to only shoot with one of the twin linked fusions when you choose....
iv'e been told if i take a shas'ui then not to bother with bonding...your choice though.

List effectiveness...Wel, i usually player against a very experienced Tournie player (The 20+ starcannon Eldar, completely deepstriking guard, rending assault marines of hell) and have so far come out equal.

as for the tl-FB/Mp.....a twin-linked weapon counts as a single weapon, so by having a multi-tracker i can fire the fusion blaster, and missile pods, while re-rolling the fusion should it miss.

I've found the shas'ui/bonding upgrade to help keep my Firewarriors in close combat during my turn, then in my opponents assault phase remove the shas'ui as a casualty increasing the chance of my troops fleeing, thus freeing up the enemy for shooting in my turn.

o.k understood on the bonding
still dubious about the M/Tracker & T/L wpns.....will look into it further unless someone can give a written in stone answer ?

the TL fusion doesnt take count as 2 weapons, it counts as two harrdwired support systems but still just 1 weapon, and the Missle Pod is another weapon so the misle pod and TL FB can still be fired.
