Very, very detailed. Not a Tau player though, little input. Haven't seen many use pathfinders though.

I like your list. Very competive if played well. My only suggestion is I see a lot of players that like Smart Missiles on their Hammerhead.

Have you got any games played yet? If so how have you done?

The burst cannons may be there to save points, gregthegrimm's up to 998.

Like the list, looks pretty good.

I bet it would give a lot of 1k point list headaches.

Well done. Swap your 2nd FWs for 10 Kroot and your solid.

yea i really liked the pathfinders just to drop alot of markerlights on the board and the kroot i was thinking about but im mostly planning on markerlighting and shooting all day

So you gonna ramp it up to 1750 for the tourney?
