More air support.
Something with infinite seeker missiles.
Something that generates a large number of Marker Tokens without needing a to hit roll.
A formation of Tau tanks that let them count as Fast vehicles for determining how many weapons they can fire after moving.
A formation of relentless broadsides.
Pretty much everything here (except "more air support". We already have the barracuda and the bloody Manta. how much more air does tau need?). The idea of a riptide with twin linked railguns (like a broadside only with full size hammerhead guns) and the ability to nova charge them for some absurd profile (strength D ap 1 heavy 2 or something) would make me buy it instantly.
There was a way to get tons of markerlights if I recall. one of the tau stratagems pretty much gave d3 markerlight counters to every unit within 12" of a given point or something like that.

Perhaps the Tau will get a gargantuan creature battlesuit.

Strange as it sounds, i don't actually want this. Tau haven't traditionally built huge war machines. I'd rather keep with our strategy of "put the biggest gun possible on the smallest feasible platform" that lead to the Tigershark AX-1-0. That Tigershark is a wonderful platform and certain to collect many tears in a superheavy-filled apocalypse game.

Now as we all know, any Tau apoc battlesuit should look like this.
Or another pacific rim mecha of your choice.

How can you not shoot it! It glows so much.
It's made for the sole purpose of beating the living crap out of giant monsters, who as per typical giant monster movie logic are vulnerable only to nukes and big honking mecha.

Updates for ALL of the previously released datasheets and units, I just don't see that happening but I can cross my fingers at least.
Superheavies refined more than the quick fix patch of 1SP=3HP, it's made superheavy transports practically useless as everything inside is constantly shaken and stunned anyway, it's also made anything that isn't a primary weapon basically a decoration.
You don't want to be punched in the feth me light. It really really hurts.
Seems to be doing well enough.

Traditionally, giant monsters (Kaiju) aren't vulnerable to nukes in the slightest.
The original Gojira was killed by deoxygenating the entire lake it was sleeping in, while the Gyarasu had to be taken out by a friendly giant monster after they grew beyond the point where SAMs were effective.

Seriously, I'm getting a strong NGE vibe here. All we need is psychological trauma and Freud, and it'll be perfect.

I just hope the price of that new megalith isn't titan like. I don't plan on playing Apoc ever, but man, would I love to own that model.

The Dactylis shouldn't be an Apocalypse unit. The Tyrannofex is basically a reimagined Exocrine and the Tervigon a reimagined Malefactor (IIRC there was even some internal debate as to whether they should keep those names, but Cruddace decided to give them dumb names). The Dactylis and Haruspex should be codex units.
