Looking to take my Tau against in a small tournament in my FLGS.

Commander w/ Fusion Blaster, Plasma Rifle, Target Lock (120pts)
2x Crisis Suits with a single Fusion Blaster each (74 pts)
2x 10-man Fire Warrior Team in Devilfish (340)
1x Sky Ray w/ Blacksun filter and Smart Missile System (116)


Was considering taking kroot, pathfinders, and a riptide but wanted a more rounded list for capturing objectives and the ability to deal with people taking flyers. I don't like the expensive devilfish and lack of markerlights, though. As it stands, Skyray sits in the back and hits what valuable targets it can while the devilfish move fowards towards objectives and the Commander deals with TEQs/armor with his unit.

Still looking for feedback!

Great list! The only thing I would change is changing the fusion blasters to plasmas or missile pods(or both if you can afford it!) on the crysis suits. Taking a skyray may be risky without some markerlights as you only have 2 on the vehicle itself. I would swap the skyray for a hammerhead if you can afford it! Remember sub rounds as well! To save some points you could drop the devilfish but that would sacrifice mobility. These are just ideas to play about with - do what you fell like and have fun! Beat the opposition for the greater good!

I think the list it self has most of everything you will need but the crisis suit and commander could switch roles a bit.

i think you can afford to lose a few fire warriors and add in some fusion plasma target locks as it will give you more options during each game. or make each suit specialized (double plasma, double fusions) and only add target locks on fusions to save points.
