Does the tau suits come standard with muilte tracker allowing them to shoot 2 Weapons i played a guy yesterday who was always shooting both guns but couldn't show me where it said it in the codex

Yes they do, page 70 of the new Tau codex.

Yes they do, I believe its a purchasable upgrade.

multitrackers are now built in for free with a BSF.

But he did need to buy two weapons to shoot. not fire the same weapons twice.

False. The new codex has suits come standard with both multi-trackers and blacksun filters. Thats all suits crisis, stealth and riptide. Its on the page with all the suits lined up

It used to be purchase only, but suits come with multi trackers and blacksun filters standard now

Thank you for the page number.

Really?

Haven't you made several threads complaining about the new Tau?

Not the firesight tau with all suits them are new to me

Far sight Tau is exactly the same. (well except that they are troop and must buy bonding knives which are nearly pointless.)

Hey, man. It makes them feel more like a team. That's worth the points alone.

Quite literally all the farsight troop suits are good for is a 4th/5th "elite" slot that can score for some reason lol. Crisis suits are too easily gimped to contest most objectives, but they can camp backfield ones way better since they have access to stronger, longer ranged weapons that shoot twice at full range rather than half. Plus, if you can somehow manage it, iirc theres a loophole in the Relic rules and Jetpack movements allowing you to move in the assault phase. Have to double check but i think it clearly states cannot run or move more than 6" in the movement phase - assault jumps are neither

Like any tau player, i want to field a pure Crisis team army .... but thats like what at LEAST 18 crisis suits, not including commanders or any allied in normal tau elites? lol i have 10 suits period and 1 is actually farsight himself (old model). Working on some fancier ones to use as commanders though so i can properly field 3 squads of 3 suits instead of being short 2 guys lol.
