they look really good, hopefully GW will make some rules for those, but doubt it as T'au are supposed to be a mobile army

T'au don't have static weapon platforms that go with infantry - that's the job of the suits. They don't do the "garrison" thing.
They do, however have drone turrets which are air-dropped into position (and are essentially tau tarantula platforms with more weapon options) (in IA3, I believe) and available (naturally) from FW at over-inflated prices.

They look neat, even if they do not fit the standard theme of the Tau. They would be a fun thing to use, and coming up with rules would not be that hard. Good use of spare parts.

They look a tad crowded, might work better on the big 60mm bases.
Fun idea though, could always go be good for counts-as IG.

They look sweet TBH, especially with Planetstrike coming out. I'd let you use those for counts as turrets.
