Playing Tau in 6th Ed has just got better and hopefully even more so when the new codex arrives in the coming months!
In the interim here are some of the things I've been taking advantage of since the new rulebook.
Fire Warriors:
FW's were pretty much the lure for me getting into Tau, they have cool helmets, wicked looking tech and some high strength long range weapons, and the Pulse Rifle is no exception.
For all you tree hugging space hippies out there...
