So the general plan is to run the bikers forward into shooting range, and keep the 5 man squad a little farther back as it will be used later for grabbing objectives... possibly reserve that unit (?). Attach the buffmander to the 9man squad w/CM and put the hurt on some big boys like FMC, MC, draigowing, etc. rest is pretty self explanatory. Let me know what you think.

It's the next level dumb deathstar that's popping up around the nets. Look into it if you wanna do the competitive Tau allies thing.

Also if you want to bring the buffmander, its only really worth it to run out of the Empire codex, not Enclave. You can bring the obligatory squad of kroot or fire warriors for cheaper, and you can get wayyy more of the signature systems you need to make buffmander work (iridium armor being one that I notice)

Not sure about the MMs attack bikes in the 6 man units. They don't mesh with grav weaponry. If you want the melta (and you probably do) go with 1 or 2 squads that are all melta.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579635/6536660.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579635/6536660.page GMT devs with lascannons can bring the hurt, with their TL, Ignore Cover, Monster/Tank Hunters. Just make sure you get the devs to be 10 man to eat wounds, because it will be shot at.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579635/6536782.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579635/6536782.page GMT
