I'm looking at starting Tau as my second army, so trying to work out a first 1000 points to aim for - based on the start collecting set to save money. I'm not used to having quite so many customisation options with all the battlesuits and drones so just looking for feedback on whether this looks ok or if I'm making any terrible mistakes!!
I just play casually (not tournament) so not aiming for super compettive but do want to have a chance of winning!! Aim is to have the strike team and broadside as my backfield team, while the breachers go in the devilfish as a more mobile threat and the commander and crisis suits can respond as needed. I need to consider my colour scheme too, so haven't written the list with any particular sept in mind. Any thoughts or feedback much appreciated.
