Isn't the Airburst Fragmentation Grenade the experimental weapon that ignores cover saves? 8-)

At five points and the current rules those freaking Disruption Pods should be standard equipment on all tau vehicles.

Etherial Nick has gotten some good use out of marker lights and negating cover saves. It's nice seeing the rise of pathfinders with how the second codex and 40K 5th ED seem to mesh well.
