Very interesting, but considering they can be taken in groups I would make them W3 or W4 at max. They seem rediculously hard to kill. Would there be fire warriors on there or would it be kroot?

Quoted from "The Defenestrator":
"Yes, I don't buy into the goody goody image the Tau PR machine has churned out . They're all dirty cold-blooded space-communists if you ask me! Besides, their shiny, selfless "we love everyone for the Greater Good" vibe is so unfitting for the "lulz we're all badass jerks" future of 40k. GW needs to play up their cold, calculating, "join us or die, and probably still die anyway" Borg-y style. That's just me of course."

Whoops I messed the price, fixed now. And yes, they are ridiculously hard to kill. If I did the math right, it'd take Sternguard 27 hellfire shots to kill the whole unit.
And the one controlling the Knarloc is a Kroot, and the Fire Warrior is manning the gun.

5 wounds.
Really?

But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Boom! Leman Russ Commander

five wounds is a tad steep.
I'd say 4 wounds and 80pts.

I'm just taking the price from the unit itself. Take a look at the entry in 40kA or IA3, they're really T5 W5 for 70pts
