Thats a really neat list, i'd like to see that army in action.

What are your tactics as of now? What units Deep Strike and Infiltrate? Do you sit around with your pathfinders or try to flank the enemy?

I too play Tau so you can see why this is of such great interest to me.

A suggestion for you broadsides is to forget the Stabilization System and just get some targetting arrays. Remember that you want to kill whatever you can see as quickly as possible, and i find that they are a great help in that way. They almost never get shot, but the shield drones are still good.

I think 1 unit of pathfinders should be enough, you dont have many units you really want to be guiding, units you want to guid are full FW teams esp ones with a fish, 3 strong crisis teams or large stealth units.

You have none of these so what are you guiding?

I reckon you might want to add some seeker missiles, atleast then you would have something to do with the lights, now I see alot of them being used inneficiently.

Vsurma is right. You either need to drop a whole squad of pathfinders for something else, or add in some seeker missiles as not much is benefiting from so many lights. Most of your crisis suits either have bs5 or twin-linked bs4, so wont get much help from the lights. The XV88s are the only thing really getting help from them.

good point on the marker lights all try to drop one squad but i dont know what to replace them with ??

tactics for me i jsut make a fire base with the BS . path finders find some cover about 36" or more from the enemy kroot infiltrait in good cover to hold the flanks ever one targets one unit at a time any thing that can move fast and assault good coming at me any heavy tanks and any big weapons nothing to speacil
