This is my list for my 2500 point Farsight list:
HQ - Commander Farsight: 170 pts
Bodyguard: Shas'vre (TL Fusion Blaster; Shield Gen; Target Lock): 78 pts
Shas'vre (TL Fusion Blaster; Shield Gen; Target Lock): 78 pts
Shas'vre (TL Fusion Blaster; Shield Gen; Target Lock): 78 pts
Troop: 12 Firewarriors; Team Leader upgrade; Warfish: 250 pts
12 Firewarriors; Team Leader upgrade; Warfish: 250 pts
12 Firewarriors; Team Leader upgrade; Warfish: 250 pts
Elite: 3 Deathrain XV8: 141 pts
3 Deathrain XV8: 141 pts
3 Fireknife XV8: 186 pts
Fast Attack: 3 Piranha Fusion Blasters, Targeting Array; Disruption Pod: 225 pts
Heavy Support: 3 XV88 Broadsides; Team Leader upgrade; 3 Drone Controllers; 6 Shield Drones: 315 pts
Skyray; 2 Burst Cannons; Multi Tracker; Targeting Array; Disruption Pod: 165 pts
Hammerhead; Railgun; 2 Burst Cannons; Multi Tracker, Disruption Pod: 165 pts
This should be somewhere around 2492 pts. Thoughts? Comments? Suggestions?
I know people frown on Shield Drones, but I think it would be funny seeing someone try and kill a group of 9 units with 2+ armor saves, and 6 4+ Invulns. Also I'd have to loose 3 in order to take the 25% casualty Morale check.

Diiiiitch the skyrayyyyy it's terrible. Use Fusion Blaster suits to suppliment Farsight enclave's otherwise lacking anti-tank.
Also, strip the Fire Warrior teams down to 9 and you can afford another suit.

I don't see how its lacking Anti-Tank with 6 Fusion blasters (3 TL); 4 rail guns, and 9 Missile Pods (6 TL). And 6 Seeker Missiles with the Skyray.
I only added the Skyray because I have yet to use one and Farsight's awesome ability to limit me to one hammerhead gave me the opportunity.
If I get rid of the Skyray I can add two more Bodyguard Suits but 5 seems like a bit overkill.

I wasn't saying that your list was lacking AT, I was saying thats the problem Farsight Enclave usually has.
I would recommend the bodyguard over the Skyray. They are going to make that squad even tougher, and even more deadly. More so than a Skyray without pathfinders will.

you could add more broadsides if you ditch the skyray, 6 shield drones for one team seems a bit excessive
|
I will...never be a memory |

With Farsight he is maxed on broadsides already.
I would take more bodygaurd too.

I'd take more bodyguards, and one thing I did with my bodyguards was give them three weapons since they can get a HW multi-tracker and choose which two to use.
I use PR MP and FB so I can take out transports from long range, murder MEQs and TEQs.
