Default Re: So what Beginner stuff to I get?

I picked up a Tau army a couple years ago. I think I've got:

1.) 2 Teams of Fire Warriors
2.) Devilfish
3.) Hammerhead
4.) 3 Crisis Suits
5.) Custom Made Shadowsun Figure
6.) Stealth Team
7.) Kroot Speed Bumps
8.) Some Gun Drones
9.) Broadside Crisis Suit

You won't believe how hardcore my firewarriors have been. I've gone up against my roommate's Phoenix Lord Battlebob (don't ask) with them and one... twice. Granted, Battlebob had been chewed up by my other units a couple times, but still... pretty good experience with them. Kroot are ok... great if you need to "pad" your army, but not much else. My Hammerhead has not fared well in the sorties I've fielded it in... mostly from bad rolls for me and good rolls for the roomie... and I think I may've done something bonehead tactically once or twice. Other then that, the Crisis Suits are solid, and the Stealth Teams are nice... I enjoy Shadowsun especially when she can "hit and run" from close combat.
