Hey all,
I just started a Tau army (mostly because of their cool looks ) and have put together a list for your critique!
This list is meant to be well-rounded for various types of opponents: SM, CSM, IG, Tau, Necron
I will mainly be playing against CSM and SM and both players like to field a good amount of tanks. I played a game last night with a hastily created list against a footslogging SM army and lost, but not without taking a lot of his forces down with me. I've created this list to hopefully be versatile for any army that I may face.
My plan is to have the Hammerheads moving and shooting the whole time, with the Devilfish bringing troops to needed points on the battlefield. I figured I'd add in Markerlights for the FW teams to help with my Hammerhead accuracy, but if they are just a waste of points then I can scrap that and use points elsewhere. I want my Crisis Commander to focus on tough units and maybe some light vehicles and my other Crisis suits able to knock off tough units as well (Termies come to mind...). He will link up and join the Crisis squad most likely. Stealthsuit team will infiltrate and pick off squads as needed.
Here's my list:
HQ-
Shas'el Commander [Fusion Blaster, Plasma Rifle, Targeting Array, Hard-Wired Multi-Tracker]
97pts
Elite-
Crisis Team
Crisis Suit 1 [TL Plasma Rifles, Missile Pod, Multi-Tracker]

EDITED for Hammerhead point error
