This is a list i've bene playing some varient of for the last 2 months. i'm 10-0 with it and have been looking for a good tau or eldar player but the only one in my area isnt too great and no-one plays my tau like i do. lol ;-)
Archon- husk blade, Soul trap, drugs, shadow field
hemon- venom blad, hemonculous wargear (still trying a piece out i like casket and shattershard so far)
liquifier gun
4 trueborn 2 cannons 2 carbines haywire grenades, venom 2 cannons
2x 10 warriors cannon in raider DL splinter wracks
2x5 wracks liquifier venom double cannon
8 wracks liquifier raider DL flickerfield
15 hellions (not sure if i like the sarg upgrade yet)
6 bikes 2 caltraps
6 bikes 2 HL
3 ravagers tripple lance
i float right around that 1980 point range so I can pick different hemon wargear or test them out.
I love my hellions but my questions to the group are as follows.
-9 vehicles would be 90 points for all of them to have night sheilds. Worth it in a meta of tyranids, marines, and demons/chaor marine?
- are the trueborn worth it? i have 10 wyches i could put 5 in a venom with haywire instead?
-does anyone see any tricks with the army?
depending on my drug roles i normally put the hemon with the hellions if i go first and give them his pain token. If i go second it depends on the army. if they are coming forward i can normally get my archon there if they come more than 6 inches up so i have to start the hemon in the transport with him and the wracks.
i run very few upgrades, i agree when people say our vehicles are coffins, but i'm up to suggestions.
