I don't have a codex next to me, but the list was:
Shas'el
Plasma Rifle, Missile Pod
2 6-man Firewarrior Squad and Devilfish
1 Hammerhead
1 Skyray (Should it be switched for another Hammerhead)
I'll update with points and upgrades tomorrow when I find a codex, but this is the idea. Too cheesy? Or not going to work?

In 750 i wouldn't take a skyray, for the points you might be able to get some suits, i know
2x Crisis Battlesuit - Plasma Rifle + Missile Pod + Multi-Tracker - 124pts
i'd rather have that instead of a skyray, especially at 750

Should the Sky Ray be switched for another Hammerhead?
I'm not too fond of suits...

I'm not too fond of suits...Yeah, another Railhead as the SkyRay is mostly an anti-Tank unit. Railheads can be quite effective at hurting troops.
If you didn't mind suits I'd say go with lotsa FireStorms; with their high volume of dice, few lists can deal with the that output at low point levels.

You should really drop the Skyray for a Railhead...between the Railgun, the submunition, and the secondary weapon, the Railhead is waaaaayyyy more killy.
And if you don't like Crisis Suits, then you're SOL. They're easily the best part of the Tau army, and the only way you can have a "competitive" Tau army list is by spamming Crisis Suits.
I would recommend using Fireknife (plasma, missile pod, Multi-tracker) or the Bladestorm (Plasma, Burst Cannon, Multi-tracker). If you need more info on XV8 math-hammer, just look at my sig
