Hey that's fair enough. As I said, I thought they were better than
Termies, but I haven't seen the Codex yet. I defer to your superior knowledge.

Ah! I know the minis your are talking about now. They are the NSL Powered
Armour in Dirtside scale. Very nice minis. Crisp and well-cast. Yes,
they'd make excellent Stealth Suits.

Can't call it the Barracuda. Forgeworld have released a Tau flyer called
the Barracuda. Instead of giving it different names, why not just call
them the Hammerhead-A and Hammerhead-B (Or Hammerhead-I and
Hammerhead-R)? They are simply variants on the same tank and since the
guns look so different, It wouldn't be hard to see which is which on the table.
