So with 9th all about the objective game I thought I might try something different with Tau. Trying to be ultra mobile in this list. The basic idea is the army will have two cores made up of a fireblade, riptide, pathfinder unit and 3 lots of firewarriors with drones. The commander will hop between the two as needed and the rest of the army will be used to outflank and target key units. Thoughts? I'm new to Tau so I'm not sure how well this will work.
