750 vs Tau

[pigliog]

Hi

I am pretty much a newb. But I dont wanna run Tau like everyone else where I live.

I am looking to build my IG army and have come up with this to counter Tau. Let me know what you think.

3X Griffon ( to hide and indirect fire the blueys)
10X Ratlings (to camp and pick off pathfinders)

The rest I am thinking heavy on the mortars, the 36" indirect range I like. But your suggestions would be very much appreciated.

I cant see much point in Lemas Russes as the Tau Hammerhead+Railgun is just crazy OP IMHO.

You'd need at least SOME powerful direct fire to deal with things like Fire Warriors, Kroot and Battlesuits. For choice the autocannon and plasmagun are the most versatile options for your line squads with plenty of range -- just stay in cover! Something with skyfire may come in handy too with all those skimmers and deepstriking 'suits.
