Hi, I usually run a more competitive pure Tau list, but I am looking to make a list for more casual games, which will play fast and is dynamic. I don't need it to fulfil every gap, rule of cool and all, but I do like to have a decent chance in most games!

I feel this list, is good, but not overpowering and brings some fun stuff like the LOTD, who most people don't seem to run (I love them myself!). I'm a bit concerned it might be just a tad bit too good for casual though? The optimised stealth cadre gets some flack online, but i've found it pretty good, but probably a bit overrated. I could switch that formation out though for a Ghostkeel wing which gets less heat and take some extra crisis suits though if people think this list is too strong for what i'm aiming for?

I don't believe you are allowed to take combi grav on the LOtD Sargent.

Nope, they can definitely take combi-gravs on the sarge, just double checked it.
