K so for this next summer I've got a few plans for my model collecting. I bought a pack of firewarriors about a month ago and was experimenting with color schemes and play styles for the tau. I was also looking at eldar and imperial guard. The tau however caught my eye, (not to mention I found a sweet color scheme for them.) So for this next summer I'm forgetting about my Marines and going tau. I am going all out and purchasing a rather large tau army and would like to know every ones opinions on my current arrangement. Well this is what I've got so far.
HQ= 122pts.

-3 shield drones
-3 gun drones
Stealth team (shas'vre) 6 man
-6 targeting arrays
-2 fusion blasters
Troops= 1124pts.

I've constructed this army and haven't seen any fatal flaws in the strategy and gameplay of the army but as I've never played with tau before I could easily be missing something. C&C welcome ;D ;D ;D ;D.
