So, I been looking at your website and I really like your tau gunline list, then I made a list myself and looked on dakka and you have a list so simmilar to it so I want to ask if my list is any good. I am going for 1750 pts so I can't take as much. 

HQ 
Commander 2x MPod drone controller puretide chip. 138 pts 
2x Mdrones. 24 pts 
Ethereal. 50 pts 

Elite 
Riptide (fusion blaster). 180 pts 
Riptide (fusion blaster). 180 pts 
2x crysis suit 2x Mpod. 104 pts 
3x Mdrones. 36 pts 

Troops 
6x firewarrior. 54 pts 
6x firewarrior. 54 pts 
6x firewarrior. 54 pts 
6x firewarrior. 54 pts 

Fast Attack 
4x Pathfinders. 44pts 
4x Pathfinders. 44pts 

Heavy 
3x Broadsides - High yield missle pods, EWO. 210 pts 
3x Broadsides - High yield missle pods, EWO. 210 pts 
3x Broadsides - High yield missle pods, EWO. 210 pts 

ADL quad gun. 100 pts 

My thoughts are the ethereal go with 1 fire warrior squad and main the gun. I wanted to give my riptide the ion accelerator because I don't have any ap 3 weapons or ap 2 for PA and termi armour and that large blast would really help. 

I am thinking of taking out the commander and the crysis suits because they dont seem to be a big enough unit, or I can take out the pathfinders to add to the crysis suits and also add to the crysis suit (it will give me 1 more suit and 2 drones) 

What do you think, are the ion accelerator worth it? keep pathfinder or keep suits? or it is good as it is.


Hey dude,


Tau isn't my strong point, so I have posted this on my blog and some of the Tau players will help you out.
