Hey guys!

I'm looking for a way to combat Eldar with Tau.
My enemy is going to be taking the striking scorpion phoenix lord, striking scorpions, swooping hawks, wraithlord, and those wraithguard with D weapons.
we're playing 750 pts.

Uuuuuuhhhhhhhh wot. Is this a tournament?

Ignore the Wraithguard, without transports you shouldn't have any problem running rings around them and there amazing 12" range guns.

He has no core choices, but his list is pretty soft. Don't be afraid of the wraithguard, unless something very expensive is within 18" of them at the end of your movement.

But with tau movement being superior to infantry... that should never happen.

what are you using. Target priority should be scorpions, hawks, wraith Lord rest.

Wraithguard die easily. T6 sure but W1 and 3+ save. Just shoot them down and the rest of his list is harmless.
