Well let me give you some advice, Crisis suits tons of them. That is all you need. After that some Troops in transports and some Kroot to infiltrate for far off objectives.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507245.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507245.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507253.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507253.page GMT
You need the codex.

You need a Crisis suit HQ and two units of troops. One can be Kroot but one of them has to be Fire Warriors. The Battleforce is a good starting point.

Get a Hammerhead tank too.

After that, more suits.

Be aware, Tau are a difficult army to play.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507263.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507263.page GMT HQ, codex, more suits.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507291.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507291.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507304.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507304.page GMT No need for transports or upgrades. Don't even bother with upgrading to a sarge (or whatever the fish-heads call them).
Buy a lot of vespids. Vespids are tha shiznizzle.
Focus on their exemplary HtH abilities.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507522.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507522.page GMT HtH, so maybe a squad of kroot in a transport to give it an HtH edge.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507547.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507547.page GMT JSJ and FOF, understand them and decide if you want to play like that.

Imho, you cannot go wrong with crisis-suits, especially, if you magnetize them to use all normal weapons and to change them to whatever the heavy support variant is called. They'll always fit in somewhere, be it HQ, Elite or Heavy Support...

1 Crisis Suit Commander and 6 Firewarriors. You can either have 6 more FW or some kroot. That's your core force, so start there!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507767.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/507767.page GMT
Also be very careful before gluing your crisis suits (unless you gonna mag them, tho i never done dat). I tend to prefer specialised suits instead of the old "Missile Pod + plasma" mix.

I think in the long run you should field at least 4 squads of 12 fire warriors.

Oh and if your planning to field kroots, I suggest alot of them. Personally I want to field at least 20 of them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/509766.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/226440/509766.page GMT
