Scrapped original list. Its still a bridage formation, new list with Sept, Traits and Relic(s) in below post. Any uncovered basic weaknesses (probably got those covered). Can Coldstar suit move 20" and charge? I'm thinking even with Mont'ka declared... the answer is no. I also want to confirm... fusion blades... That's 4 fusion blaster shots in shooting, and in mellee, thats 2 attacks and I lose my other base attacks?


****************************************************************************************************************************************

I was thinking about Tau and maxing out the CP with a Brigade Formation (full force org chart).

I've kit bashed the dark strider 90%, Fire Cadre 95%, and both Marksmen.

I've rewritten the list a few times now, its changed a bit and follows the rule of 2 (yay!)

Farsight Enclave (Reroll to wounds within 6")
Warlord Trait (Reroll to hits within 12")
Relic (Fusion Blades and -1cp to get Engram Neurochip)


HQ
Coldstar 2x Fusion Blaster (to become Fusion Blades), Sheild Generator and Drone Controller. (Figure at 1000pts I need some versatility, after I homing becon first target and survive, use the coldstar 20" movement to get back to the gunline). Its all theory until I get a chance to play.

FireBlade Cadre (Engram Neurochip)

Darkstrider

Elite
3x Stealthsuits w/ Homing beacon.
1x Marksman
1x Marksman

Troops
Strike Team x5 w/ 1 Guardian Drone
Strike Team x5
Strike Team x5
Strike Team x5
Strike Team x5
Strike Team x5

Heavy
Heavy Gun Drone x2
Heavy Gun Drone x2
Sniper Gun Drone x3

Fast Attack
5 Pathfinders 3 Ion Cannon w/ 1 Pulse Accelerator Drone
5 Pathfinders 3 Ion Cannon
4 x Tactical Drones (3 Gun Drones & 1 Sheld Drone)

Still playing around with the points, but I think this is really close to being it.

Another question, where can I get bits for ion rilfes and the sniper drones, my bits box has nothing that I can see that works for either?

From GW? Buy some Pathfinders and Sniper Drones?

Yeah... thats too expensive. I was looking everyone for bits sales for ion rilfes... no one has stock anywhere.
