I figured I would just go with Breachers, but humans are a bit more fight-y than T’au, so I thought maybe a Kroot squad would fit better, however some of the special rules for the carnivore squad don’t really fit humans.
So, what data sheet do you think fits Gue’vesa better, breachers, fire warriors, or carnivores?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058565.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058565.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058567.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058567.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as?
If you're playing in a more casual setting, your opponent may let you take an IG detachment as allies.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058578.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058578.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as?

I’ve got a little T’au force I put together and I wanted to run a unit of gue’vesa with them. Obviously until a new T’au codex comes out we have to just do a “counts as” for the human adherents to the greater good. What do you recommend the Gue’vesa count as?

Dead Sky Black Sun actually has a Gue'Vesa as one of its characters. He was always lamenting the fact that the Tau wouldn't let the humans get "stuck in proper", so I would say Kroot probably works, and just ignore/don't use the rules that don't make sense, or go with Fire Warriors. Some cool modeling options either way.

I'm really hoping the new Tau dex has them as an option!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058633.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058633.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as?
Catachans might make for better Kroot, Cadians as better Fire Warriors.

Though I think the best bet would be allied IG.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058634.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058634.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as?
If you're going for "recoloured Guardsmen", ask your opponent if you can take a Guard detachment and add that to your army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058733.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058733.page GMT Re:Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as? IG detachment.

The original background had the Tau allowing the Gue'Vesa to manufacture Imperial lasguns as their weapons while Tau pulse weapons were limited issue to sergeants and officers. That way the Tau maintained a military edge and kept their best goodies out of the reach of potentially unreliable humans. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058738.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11058738.page GMT Re:Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11060471.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11060471.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as?

This was what I was thinking, though Scions would be better as Breachers or Strikers and the Cadians as Pathfinders.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11060542.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11060542.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as?

I think you guys have convinced me to go with pathfinders for them.

Sv 4+) than a Pathfinder equivalent (M 7, Sv 5+). But that is the problem with Gue'vesa counts as. You have three imperfect units to choose from (also Kroot at M 7, WS 3+, Sv 6+).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11067627.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/796284/11067627.page GMT Best unit for Gue'vesa to count as?
