Hello,
recently i decided to start tau and i've though of a list to buy so can you tell me what you think of it and give any suggestions you have. Thanks.

Shas'O (D'yanoi O'res) 127 pts.
[with Cyclic Ion Blaster, Plasma Rifle, Missle pod and hardwired multitracker]


Crisis Suit Team: 186pts.
[3 Suits all armed with plasma rifle, missle pod and multitrackers]

Stealth Team: 120pts.
[4 Suits]

2* Fire warrior squad: 420 pts.
[with 12 Warriors, Shas'ui and Devilfish]

Hammerhead: 150pts.
[with Railgun and Burst Cannons]

Total: 1003pts.

[Shas vre Tau kais]

Looks well balanced, should perform well,

But this should probably be in the Tau army lists section

[ollieb8]

oh sorry.

[steck_638]

it would be better (tactically) to split up the crisis team into smaller groups for now because it is easier to hide them ;D

other than that it should do good

Looks fine i suppose, maybe a Stim Inj for a second save?

Crisis Suit Team: 186pts.
[3 Suits all armed with plasma rifle, missle pod and multitrackers]

That's fine, like steck said maybe split it into a squad of 2 and 1.

Stealth Team: 120pts.
[4 Suits]

That's fine.

2* Fire warrior squad: 420 pts.
[with 12 Warriors, Shas'ui and Devilfish]

Drop 2 FW and the Shas'ui from each squad (60 points) and use the points on your HH and your devilfish, ie a must decoy launcher, and multi tracker (30 points).

Hammerhead: 150pts.
[with Railgun and Burst Cannons]

Now on here also add a decoy launcher, and multi tracker (15 points).

Total: (988)pts.

Other than that it looks like a solid list. It'll be weak against a tank every list, but you'll do fine if you maneuver around a bit and keep out of sight.

thanks for the help guys!

[steck_638]

np, we were (or all for me) noobs once and got help from somewhere ;D

[Shas vre Tau kais]

Yes, (except in my case not so good help in the form of a father who accused me of cheating for every rule he didn't know when he couldn't be bothered to read the rules)

[steck_638]

and just remember that the battlesuits can move, shoot, move

no matter what the other player says ;D

[Shas vre Tau kais]

Especially if they're like this guard player I know who can drone on for hours about how the jetpack rule is "unrealistic"
