Hi muhud and welcome.

I find you need 3000 pts to have a baneblade so that you can screen it with other vehicles so that it doesnt take a huge amount of fire. Also Tau as an army are usually very harsh on any vehicle during their shooting phase. Hope you find all the info you need here though.

Other vehicles would be nice, to make them think twice about shooting at the Baneblade. Leman Russ tanks if you are playing IG or Land Raiders for Space Marines for example. Even if they target your Baneblade then you have other vehicles to whip on the Tau. Infantry equiped to take out the threats are also a nice thing, you can almost think of them as tanks with wounds since you remove the model. Remember terrain as well, try and get the Baneblade hulldown or your troops with a cover-save.

So your basically saying that distraction's would work better in the long run
for me and that I should flush e'm out from behind and rain down hell over their heads.

It sounds painfully amusing but I'll give it a shot
and try to straighten them out.

thank's guys for your help.:gimmefive::yahoo:
