Tau commander Question

[Vincent]

Yup 18" fusion blasters, they are totally being rocked in my stealth suits now =D

Take shadow sun attach her to a squad of firewarriors and put them behind an aegis for a 2+ cover save

It's stealth and shrouding, +3 total, so literally any cover becomes 2+.  No need for an aegis.

Sure, you can put shadwosun with a FW squad, or stealths, but she's best with Crisis, I think.  Give them a 2+, too, and they all can infiltrate. 

[Dan Bunker]

Stealth and shrouding isn't +3. Max is +2 according to shrouding

[jhobin]

There cumulative

[Mannahnin]

Stealth and Shrouded are cumulative, but as Shrouded notes, the lowest you can get a cover save is 2+.

well further into that can a tau commander be singled out in shooting if hes with a unit of fire warriors? Or is that an older rule?

This is (or was; might be thinking of a previous edition) a warhammer fantasy rule, it's never been 40k rule.  The only thing like it was a couple of editions ago there was a special rule for Monstrous Creature Independent Characters that they could always be singled out for shooting even when attached to a unit.  Then they removed the option for them to join units.  Then they got rid of MC ICs entirely, and just made them MC characters, and updated the rules for Tyrant Guard.

Little off topic but can a full mech suit army be made with tau or do you need at least two fire warrior squads?
