What are the differences between them all?

i'm not overly up on Tau, I'm just getting into them now and I love how the FW models look.




Camouflage is the colour of fear... I have no need to hide from my foes... I have no fear of death. My colours I wear openly, they proclaim louder than any words, "I am proud to live - I am proud to die" :

The FW Battlesuits are special patterns that include various wargear such as a TL Missile Pod or Target Lock by default. I can't remember where the rules for them are, I think they're in the Taros Campaign handbook, but there's nothing stopping you from just using them as regular XV8s.

(The FW Broadsides are just an alternate model for the codex unit.)

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

The hazard battlesuits are completely different though, with different weapons and taking up a FA slot. Their rules are in IA: Apocalypse II.
