mobile tau armies are heavily reliant on survivable devilfish transports - so don't hold back on the protective upgrades like the decoy launchers!

the 'fish of fury' formation is the epitome of the aggressive mobile tau assault; the fire warriors jet forwards, jump out of their devilfish transports and then shoot underneat them. the devilfish stop the enemy from simply assaulting strait into you.
combine this alongside things like pirahan squadrons, crisis suits and stealthsuit teams and you can keep your opponent on his/her toes indefinately as they try to respond to multiple mobile threats!

and to hold down your deployment zone, you can always stick those longer-ranged static things like pathfinder squads, broadside teams & sniper drones teams!

cheers!
