So in the near future i plan on joining a gaming group.
I have been building a Tau army based on a list i developed, which is intended to be all comers, but due to relative Tau power it might be too harsh.

My question for the community is... if a guy turned up at your gaming centre with this list what would you think?
Is it too much to turn up with

1500
Aegis w/ comms
Farsight
5x bodyguard (3x 2fusion TL, 1 2plasma, 1 MSSS, CnCN) 5 gun drones
3x 6man firewarriors
15 man kroot with snipers and hound
Riptide IA, EWO, CDS
5man pathfinders
Skyray SMS BSF SS
3man missile-sides Shas'vre and EWO

Just ask your opponent before you play how competitive he wants to be. If I go to my LGS, I usually bring a powerful list, but sometimes I'll bring something stupid and silly every once in a while.
Ask your opponent what he's bringing. If he's got an Ork list based off of small squads of Choppa boys, Warbuggies, and Flash Gitz, you're going to want to change your list. If he's got 4 Helldrakes and a Screamerstar, same thing.
