I'm trying to trim this down to 1500 but not sure where to go with the above. As above, it's sitting at 1700 even. Help me dakka!

more crisis suits? markerlights? less hammerhead? rangers instead of pathfinders? get rid of eldrad?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4868768.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4868768.page GMT Trying to trim a 1500 tau + eldar list need help http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4868901.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4868901.page GMT Trying to trim a 1500 tau + eldar list need help http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4869203.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4869203.page GMT Re:Trying to trim a 1500 tau + eldar list need help
The list isn't really all that mobile in the current phase I think but was hoping to just camp my side objectives so wanted more guns to stay far far away.
The fire dragons would probably be out of range of everything for the entire time other than quad gun management I'd imagine in that scenario.

Warwalkers would be competing with broadsides and hammerheads. I'm honestly not sure which way to go here. (I can always sub in some dreads for the walkers I suppose) Less anti-tank but alot more anti-infantry.. hrm.. tough call I'll have to math it out. Also might be good at throwing up enough bullets to threaten necron fliers?

I really don't expect to see more than 3 fliers at 1500's for most games.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4869967.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4869967.page GMT Re:Trying to trim a 1500 tau + eldar list need help

but not same power however. Eldrad can. I see it as buffing the shooting of 2 seperate units instead of markerlighting something. (also providing some psy protection vs chaos/nids/GK/SW/other eldar)

Maybe I'm just overthinking this and just throw down more crisis suits?

I own about 4 broadsides, 2 hammerheads with rail guns (one with missles, the other with burst cannons)

as well as 30 fire warriors, 1 d.fish, 13 crisis suits of various equipments.

Also sniper drone team as well as a buttload of gun/shield drones]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4870818.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4870818.page GMT Trying to trim a 1500 tau + eldar list need help BRB power, and you have enough charges, I think you can cast the same power twice.

The eldar codex under farseer pag 26 I think, under spirit stones: "A farseer cannot use the same psychic power twice in the same turn"

While eldrad Page 51 says under Staff of Ulthamar "If Eldrad is not in an assault, it can allow Eldrad to use a thrid psychic power per turn, which may be a psychic power he has already used that turn"

His divination power of repositioning things in the army can also be useful when I go first or to save on a jump shoot jump position movement.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4871220.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/482374/4871220.page GMT
