Any suggestions or changes that would keep it under 1000 points would be appreciated.  Also I like the fact that all that is on the battlefield at the start is 3 tanks, 3 crisis and 3 stealth suits.

Drop the Photon Grenades and One FireWarrior per squad and you get yourself a Shas'ul with Drone Controll with Gun Drones. That way you have 2 extra wounds to spare when you fall thoses armour saves Plus that 1 more point in LD will help out some.

Over all very sold list. Very Moblie and Hard-Shooting.

You're talking about another Crisis Suit I presume?  That is a good idea, I just have to buy the model.

I like the list ;) Very even. I agree with preator, and those are the only changes you should make ;)

You have a very mobile, strong force, and when you use these factors correctly, you will have great succes  :)

Thanks but I was also talking about your FireWarriors.

Like I said that extra point in LD will help out

But if you are going with the Criss Suit Shas'ul
I would say  Use the Try and true Plasma Rilfe Missle Pod Multi-tracker combo with the Drone Upgrade with Sheild Drones or Gun Drones.

You are right about the extra leadership, thanks.  

It's about 3.00 here in Australia on a Friday afternoon so my mind is a little numb.

I am hoping to try this out in the next few weeks so we will see how it goes.  It will either be against eldar, Tau or nids.

No Problem it is 11 30 pm here in the states..

Good Luck with your army. Just rember the mission objectives in every battle you play. With your moblity it will be very easy to take coners and hold them off.

The other thing I was tossing up whether to change or not is the shield generator on the HQ.  I was thinking that I might be better to take a drone controller with 2 gun drones.

what do you think?

Well Shield Drones are nice that +4 inv save, Why not take one of Each and see how they work out.

I always place Drones Thro out my army gives me extra woulds that i can take way. On top that your Shas'O will have 6 wounds to play with.

If things get to Tight rember Tau to not look down to fall back and regroup.  

Just try to stay have from Hand to hand but if you want to do that I say maybe give each FireWarrior Squad 2 to 3 Pluse Carbines. That way you should be able to wound and make them take a pinning test.
