The Tau Project: Day of Reckoning List



So, having got home from work I've put together a list that I hope may at least put a fight against Blackmanes Dark Eldar, I know he's running Hesperex and webway portals, so I'm gong to have my hand full if they get near. However, I hope to keep them at range, and IF they get near, I have a couple of failsafe options...

Pulse Carbine and Marker Light Designator, Shield Drone 15pts
Shas’la Pathfinders 12pts x3
Rail Rifle and Target Lock 10pts each x3

Update: Made a huge gaff with the Pathfinders, in that they MUST have a Devilfish to go with them, which a) I don't have and b) would put me over 1100pts. So, I've dropped them and included the Kroot instead.


Total 1027pt 1022pts

This is the first Tau list I've put together, ever. So if anyone has ideas for tweaks and/or changes then please feel free to comment. Also, i know there are no heavy options on this list, as I dont actually have any yet, though a Broadside or two would be nice! Anyway, I have 4 weeks to build and tweak this list so any help is welcome! 

Thanks Zebulon
