I like the list as a whole, but am not sure how I feel about the burst cannon suits. I get that you'd want to have a bit more dakka in an all-suit list though. d]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040013.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040013.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits
The burst cannon suits are a must stay, those units put out so much firepower it is silly, I mean 43 points for a JsJ 8 shot crisis suit is just plain awesome.

Commander, 2x Burst Cannon, Drone Controller, 2xGun Drone
3x Crisis, 2xBurst Cannon, 2xGunDrone

338pts of pure Dakka in my FE army and fufills my mandatory HP/Troop Ally slot.

I usually add in an ECPA HBC Stim VT Riptide when I use my FE as allies and in my main FE army as well.

It just evaporates enemy units and the best part is it doesn't really require markerlights to be effective barring 2/3+Cover Save units.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040206.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040206.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits
I have also run the commander I like to call "Rain of Crows", commander with the works(double burst, drones controller, 2 gun drones), and stick him in a unit of 12 gun drones.

Now that unit is also fun, 36 S5 BS5 shots, 28 are twin linked and pin... basically 14 ablative wounds for your commander, simply hilarious]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040352.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040352.page GMT Re:1500 Tau Enclaves all suits FE army and putting out that much Dakka with a bunch of Albative wounds and being scoring makes it a fun and good choice.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040371.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040371.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits 40k]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040396.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040396.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits

Nah the talisman is mediocre at best since the best psychic powers cannot be denied anyway.

Not a fan of the markers in the missile unit since drones in enclave suit units should be purely ablative wounds, since we can't afford to lose our 53 point models.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040887.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6040887.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits

I don't know every psych power there is but I don't really understand how it's mediocre. Every target get's DTW against any targeted offensive spell and the talisman allows any units within 12" of the bearer to roll 4D6 dice... besides nova's, theres not many offensive powers that can not be denied]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6041009.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6041009.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits

So, nother revamp for a tournament, decided to go enclaves all suits. Pretty self explanatory, the fusion blade commander goes with the plasma/fusion suits, the missile commander goes with the missile suits.

C&C appreciated!

HQ
Commander, twin-linked fusion gun, fusion blade, plasma rifle 150
the extra plasma on this guy seems kinda wasted recommend you drop it and put Stim Injector and a shield Gen on him, im guessing your also tossing him in with one of the below crisis teams
Commander, x2 missile pods, drone controller, target lock, x2 marker drones 152

Troops
x2 crisis suits, x2 burst cannons, 2 gun drones, bonding: x1 shas'vre, drone controller 152
would be more effective to just not take the Shas'vre or the drones add another burst cannon suit
x2 crisis suits, x2 burst cannons, 2 gun drones, bonding: x1 shas'vre, drone controller 152
Same as above
x3 crisis suits: plasma rifle, fusion gun, target lock, bonding 174
your splitting your weapons here and it would be more effective to choose one or the other
x2 crisis suits: x2 missile launchers, target lock, bonding: 3 marker drones 152

Elites
Riptide, Ion accelerator, EWO, twin-linked SMS, 190
Riptide, Heavy burst cannon, EWO, skyfire, twin-linked SMS, earth caste array 235

Heavy Support
x2 Missilesides: EWO, bonding 142
i would run these in 3's


TOTAL: 1499


I didn't check the points after the changes but if you have enough you can add more suit teams into the mix.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6041610.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6041610.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits

Here are some of the most often psychic powers people aim for.
Iron Arm
Warp Speed
Endurance
Prescience
Perfect Timing
Forewarning
Invisibility
Fortune
Guide
Conceal

If you did not notice, these are all blessing, which you cannot dtw. Hope that clears it up for you.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6041622.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6041622.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits

thank you, those are very common to roll for, but there are also many popular maledictions and witchfire attacks. There are a lot of powers people don't always get what they roll for.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6042476.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/551580/6042476.page GMT 1500 Tau Enclaves all suits

I understand the changes, unfortunately since my suits are heavily converted, I dont think I would be able to get any more in time, including the broadsides, and I really do want a third one... just have to build it.

As for the plasma fusion guys, I originally was just going to go pure fusion, as their real purpose is to DS them and take out tanks, and allow the fusion blade commander to detach and go apes*&t on the enemy backfield. I guess Ill just make them dual fusion, makes more sense.

As well, the only real reason you would take the talisman is playing against flying circus and all that flickering fire nonsense
