I'm not sure if I should swap out the Pathfinders for something else as I'll have plenty of marker-light support from the 2 command units.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547313/5967253.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547313/5967253.page GMT 1850 Tau "Feast of Blades" tourney list.

If you have the option I would sub out HRR broadsides for HYMP ones, they're better against virtually all targets. Whether you do or not, I'd still get another couple of HYMP broadsides (maybe with EWOs) to help gyn down flyers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547313/5969119.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547313/5969119.page GMT 1850 Tau "Feast of Blades" tourney list.

I think you're right, the pathfinders aren't needed if you have two marker commanders -are you sure you need 9 marker drones per commander? seems to be a bit of overkill to me - surely 5 would be enough at BS5 ?

I made another list pulling the pathfinders and adding another HYMP Broadside and drones.

My thinking on all the marker lights was with 18 total, I'll be able to light up alot of the enemy stripping cover and increasing BS for anything that wants to shoot at that unit. I'll be play testing it some before the tourny, we'll see how it plays, maybe there is some overkill there and some wiggle room.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547313/5969766.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547313/5969766.page GMT
