Is the Tau Search & Destroy Cadre - or any other formation like it - usable in standard 40k?
(Not looking for Firebase - I don't like the Tide, and like a lot more FA choices than Elites)

The formations in Damocles are for Apocalypse. Tau don't have any other ones besides the Firebase Support Cadre that are made for 40k.

I haven't looked at those Formations in a while. I remember the Riptide one was pretty good, but aside from that the rest were pretty much garbage. I remember the Skyray formation letting Skyrays fire any number of missiles a turn, despite there being no actual limitation in the rules for number of missiles they could fire.

Does it bother anyone else that gak like that routinely gets past their editors?

It used to. Missile Lock is a USR in 6th and 7th that only one model has ever had, and has been FAQ'd off the model in both editions. It had no affect in 6th and when it would work in 7th they kept the FAQ to remove the rule from the model.

Thats too bad. I was looking into what I'd like to expand to, and FA was getting really crowded. Saw the formation listed while looking at Tetras, after I had decided Ion Pathfinders in a Devilfish + Remora drones, and it looked perfect.
Tau FA looks like a blast. But I had forgotten Stealth Suits were Elites, so Remora/ PF fish/ Piranha all fit. Wish i could do more.
