starting a tau army

[BolterZorro]

Back to 40k after a long break (2 decades) this summer, I've plaid primaris. Now I want something new: Tau. After some reading, here is my list for a probable purchase (after faq/chapter aprouved):

 

2 x Start Collecting! Tau Empire

2 x Tau Empire Commander     

1 x XV95 Ghostkeel Battlesuit     

3 x Cadre Fireblade     

2 x  (boxes of 3)XV25 Stealth Battlesuits     

2 x XV104 Riptide Battlesuit     

2 x Tau Empire Pathfinder Team     

1 x  Tau Empire Fire Warriors

 

I want a 2000pts efficient army (not necessary competitive but effective), certainly built in 3 bataillons. More of this, the buying list should be kinda cost effective (in $$$£££€€€)

Is their any flaws in this list? how can I improve it? replace something? add something?

What are the things in TAU army that I should look after? drones? 

 

I am hesitating for  a 3rd commander. In fact, I'd like a bit of CC and I don't know what are the tau options except commanders or breachers (but fragiles)

 

thx in advance for your help

You get enough Drones with the SC! boxes already. Looks like a solid list. Maybe a bit weak on the anti-tank side (HRR Broadsides are great for that) but overall solid.

 

Our CC options are: Farsight and the Fusion Blade Commander. Aside from that you only want to be in melee your battlesuits and only to stop the enemy unit from shooting for a turn, not to deal damage. Breacher are no CC unit.

I thought that the riptides were the main anti tank unit? and the ghostkeel?

If I had to add a broadside, what should I put out of my list?

 

Another approach: a 3rd riptide? what should I remove to put it?
