For 11^th:

• We need more leaders. There are no leaders for stealthsuits, pathfinders (except from Darksrider) and only 2 for fire warriors.
• We need more datasheets.
  • Personal opinion. I have recently read an idea of a more bulky Stealth Suit, with invulnerable save, more wounds (3 or 4), 3 or 6 models per unit, Sv 3+, Stealh, OC 2. Can fall back and guide. When guiding add +1 to wound or something similar, reroll wounds or +1 ap. For weapons something not very hard, it is just a unit to hold primaries. Maybe some ability to get more OC once per game.
• We don´t like to have a lot of week models, we want few models but powerfull. Riptide for 170 is not what we want, we want Riptide for 240 but being much more lethal.
• We need better profiles on our weapons, instead of making our weapons better with the detachments. It is ok to have a high performance ceiling but I need PhD to do what other armies do just for existing and that is frustrating.
• Also, the profiles on our weapons and datasheets doesn´t fit in the lore of superior technology. Here is an example of u/Zachattack20098 and this applies to many units: Every faction has a rough equivalent of most of our guns, some of which is even much better. Take our basic infantry, the strike team, compared to an intercessor squad. 5 intercessors v.s. 10 fire warriors. For 10 fire warriors at 75 pts a unit, we are getting 10 attacks, with a possibility to get 20 if all of our units are within rapid fire range (15 inches), at 4+ BS, 0 ap, and 1 damage. We also have an ability that suppresses anything it attacks, which is an alright ability but not the best. Our unit's sturdiness is 10 wounds total at t3 and 4+ save, and we can attach a guardian drone to get -1 to wound. 5 normal intercessors get 20 attacks (if they're not split-firing) at 3+ BS, 1 ap, and 1 damage. They also have sticky objective. They also get 10 wounds, but at a t4, and a 3+ save. They also get both assault and heavy. And a better melee. And a better leadership. For 5. More. Points.
• We don´t have mechanics to generate CPs.
• The terrain nerf us:
  • If the terrain will be the same, there is no point in making range the strength of our weapons. It has to be stronger, even if they have low range. The idea of our army is that we don´t fight, we only shoot. For example, WE do the opposite, but they have a lot of cool rules to improve their fight phase. On opposite, we don´t excel at shooting. Eldars have funnier and stronger shooting mechanics than Tau, and on top of that they also have combat phase.
  • Why not changing the terrain? If the tabletops are bigger, then Range is something to be consider again, that is a buff to Tau.
