Crisis suits or broadsides.  Neat little trick you can do is buy the O'shovah model and just use regular weapons for him so he can be your shas'o and have spiffy arials on his helmet.  But you definately want more crisis suits as they'll be one of your strongest points.  Broadsides too for some anti tank, because besides railguns Tau don't have all too much anti tank.

Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day.  Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

Why is it that when a man talks dirty to a woman, it's sexual harassment, but when a woman talks dirty to a man, it's $3.95 a minute?

I agree, your  best bet will probably be another crisis suit.  Though a devilfish might be a good too.

Crisis suits and stealth suits are always good. Another great thing about crisis suits is they come with 2 gun drones.

Speaking of stealthsuits.. they used to come in blisters of 2, but on the GW site it looks like you only get one for the SAME PRICE. Someone please tell me they still come in blisters of 2. Because I want more and I'll be very upset if they're costing me twice as much.

I think when i bought my 3 stealth suits i only bought 2 blisters. One blister had 2 reguler stealths and the other one had a commander stealth suit with a shield drone upgrade to it. This is just what i think i remember. I'm probably wrong tho.

No that's right. That's the way I remember them. But the last time I was on the GW website it looked like the standard stealthsuit was the same price with only 1 in the blister.

While we're on the subject, has anyone else noticed that the mini for the stealthsuit commander is WRONG? The mini has a bonding knife, and the codex clearly states that bonded stealthsuits will not carry a bonding knife but have the knife symbol painted on their armor.
