Farsight Enclaves is the allies. I have lots of tau models and other SM models of any recommendations.

You can only take two drones for your Farsight Enclave Commander. What you need to do is not take any drones on the Commander a take a minimum squad of marker drones, this will cost you 8 more points.

Or alternatively, take two drones with the commander and a couple of drones one of the suit squads and join him to them for no points cost increase. This is a less efficient setup.

Alternatively if you can find the points, take drones on your commander and drones on one of the missle squads, then give everyone target locks so the drones can fire at one target, the Missile Suits and Commander at another or seperate if need be.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6182506.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6182506.page GMT Tournament saturday, advice needed. 1500 White scars w/ Tau allies. What are your solutions against AV 14?
Also have you considered running a command squad with Khan?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6182673.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6182673.page GMT Re:Tournament saturday, advice needed. 1500 White scars w/ Tau allies. LoS, and my riptide are my only ways of dealing with av14. Smash and twin linked melta.

I only have 20 bikes at the moment, and if I went to 1750 I would definitely add a little command squad deathstar. Right now though I didn't have as many space marines as Tau so I won't be able to convert my DV bikers into a command squad.Very good suggestion that I would do at 1750 or if I had a further week to prepare.

I just completed a test game vs necrons w/ 4 night scythe and 3 annihilation barges. It was the scouring and I won 8 to 3. The 12 missiles amethe stormtalon did a number on his fliers and scouting bikes with no cover save grav guns and melta bombs did a number on all his barges. Riptide under performed but ate tons of fire and lived the battle to contest.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6182733.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6182733.page GMT Tournament saturday, advice needed. 1500 White scars w/ Tau allies.
I like the list, I have a similar list but with Tau allies (buffmander and missilesides).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6183900.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/559562/6183900.page GMT
