It all comes down to personal choice. I only say take a Shas'O if you have a big game, and extra points. If you are looking for a beeeefy commander, then get an O.
Personally, I run two El's - my purpose is for them to kill.

- Inexpensive compared to a Railhead (~180 points), depending on upgrades
- is a Tau tank (access to armoury, very survivable, etc.) with the same armor as a Hammerhead
Bad:
- Seeker Missiles a one-shot weapon (also can only have six)
- On its own, can't be relied upon to fire all the missiles in a six-turn game
- takes a Heavy Support slot that may be better spent on a different unit
Recommendations:
If you are running a Seeker-heavy list, the Sky Ray is the way to go. Bringing its own launching mechanism means that it doesn't take even more points to be effective. It shines even more when those missiles are guided by Pathfinders or an SMT. If you already have Pathfinders/SMT and at least three vehicles, it is usually better to skip the Sky Ray and just place two missiles on each of your boats. That way your arsenal is spread out, preventing a lucky Lascannon shot from taking out your heavy weapons. If you are playing for fluffy reasons, a filled HS contingent should include a Sky Ray. |
Hey SpartanTau thanks for the skyray tips fully agree with it, and will add it to the tactica and credit it to you~
++Thanks++
We are more steps closer into building the general tau overview guide =)
thanks all~
