Default AI squadron?

I'm thinking of getting two squadrons for Aeronautica Imperialis: Imperial (Guard that is) and Tau. Any of you have a good idea what I should get with each? I would prefer squadrons that could deal with different types of missions.

Excuse me for being ignorant but what is a AI Squad? What game is this?

can't help you with this really other than to say that the first step is to 'aquire' the AI rulebook and make sure you definately have people to play against, then just to take it from there.

For the tau, you couldn't go wrong with a barracuda squad and a tigershark squad, (not the AX-1-0's) the baracudas, whilst not flexible, are able to handle the main aspect of the missions, which would be trading ack acks with other aircraft, and the standard tigershark, because it can handle itself in a fight, and its capable of attacking ground targets, the AX-1-0 tigershark packs a punch against ground targets, but it needs support.
Thats just my opinion

I just play with 4 thunderbolts, 1 Arvus and 1 Marauder for 100 point games. The marauder can blow the hell out of the objective with its bomb payload and the Thunderbolts have good offensive stats against planes and therefore dogfight well. The lightning is better because it is more manueverable and cheaper but the Thunderbolt is supposed to be more durable, it really isn't by that much, but its autocannons are much stronger. I just like being able to use my Thunderbolts and Marauders in Epic.

If you need to land troops then I like the Arvus, the Aquila Lander would be better (its faster and has a gun), but they don't make a model for it far as i can tell.

And You can use Epic Hydra Tanks in Aeronautica Imperialis. There cheap and efficient, but can't move, period! (I think)

Never Played Tau although I intend to, always loved the Damocles Crusade piece of 40k history. A Manta is pretty much a 100 point game by itself!

I've never actually played AI, though, I just like to collect things.

Oh and shoot me a PM, I bought the rulebook and can answer any rules you'd like.
