This can be a problem when determining casualties due to shooting and subsequent Ld checks. One item I'd add to drones: They add to your total squad size. then I got bored with Tau as they played too similar to my Eldar. I was a big fan the the mpod/plas/multi XV8's myself. The Stabilization System says 'don't even try.' I'd rather just use the 10 points on the twin-linked plasma for the ASS, and then in a pinch I can still move and kick out a larger volley from the Smart Missile System.ДЄ good write up and clear logic. Lets me relocate AND shoot the big guns, since otherwise the enemy can try to gyp me out of a turn of shooting. I am putting this here rather than in one of the sub-forums, because I will be posting vehicles, battle armor, and other types of units all in this thread. I'm unfamiliar with the Forge World suits other than how they prefer the ASS on the Broadsides. Septemat 10:32 missed that bit, but it explains it more succinctly than I did. Otherwise, great basic write-up on the Crisis Suits.

Of course, in our current codex, this doesn't matter at all when you start using Forgeworld variants, however, it does come into play. Since the codex stipulation states that 'they must remain stationary' and Relentless says they 'count as stationary,' we're all set here. Just for clarification, Crisis Suits can move and fire Heavy Weaponry, as their Jetpack grant them Relentless.

Missile pods are a must, they're just too good, and when facing a lot of marine armies, those Plasma Rifles are wonderful especially since they don't 'get hot'! It actually makes a sort of sense, since it gives them a weapon they can move and shoot without ASS. Markerlight a target and this unit turns into a kill-switch. I like to take a unit of three and attach a couple of Shas'els with 6 shield drones for durability. A burst cannon drum, a piece of a Space Marine jump pack, and a Crisis Suit arm are needed.A solid review of the options, and I entirely agree with the Fireknife being the default workhorse of any Tau army. Here's what you should have when all the previously built pieces are combined!

Just shave or cut them down to fit and throw them on a regular crisis head. Grab that Land Raider sponson cover and two extra Crisis big toes. On to the legs! Start with good old standard Crisis legs (and pin them!).

Don't worry, to patch it up here are the pieces needed. Pretty messy, it looks like a daemon prince had his way with it. If you cut like I did it should look like this: See more ideas about tau, tau empire, tau warhammer. My fingers look like they got in a fight with the knife section in your local kitchen appliance store. Explore Aaron Thurston's board 'tau conversion ideas', followed by 125 people on Pinterest. I'm also gonna say right now, please be very careful when cutting. It takes some subtle knife work but in general it's not too hard. Unless you're a master cutter, some greenstuff work must be done on the vents. Glue everything up and you have the Jet pack, that looks a bit like this. This shouldn't be tough and can be done with only a minimal amount of confidence. To do so cut the middle torso piece (the piece between the thrusters and chest plate) and cut it as shown in the picture.ДЄfter that, you'll need to combine the two Jet areas into a single pack so it resembles a Stealth Suit jet pack.
