Default Re: Tau snipers?

The pathfinders have one major drawback on the board. They have to take a devilfish transport. In doing this you draw alot of attention to your unit. We all know that tanks in 40K are fire magnets.

If you use the tank to actually move the unit around you take a huge risk in losing the unit all together. If you take this choice I would recommend dropping off you r unit at the end of the first turn and taking the Devilfish another direction to make your opponent chase down. While he's preoccupied with the tank your pathfinders can set up some decisive hits in his force to help wittle them down.

As Romulas stated also, if you insert the railrifles you lose the marker lights. Stacking marker lights is what will help you hit. This team can help with that goal.
