And in the meantime, i will be working up on some stats and ideas
for using either cav (which i already own) or Heavy gear and
combining the minitures with the tau weapon philosophy with T'oma
when we get teh chance. I would like to use maby a little of both
or have some corallary of both ideas. But the smaller fleet action
Gears may make good substitutions for crisis suits and smaller
knights, and or,, the standard size make good knights and teh Cav's
Light quick stand off titans, Ie: the Ogre, Katana, and mastodon.
just ideas for now.
Fluff idea,, After contacting a imperial knight world, the tau
realized thier lack of quick scouting and stand off machines after
being handed a sound defeat by the backward Baronial world of Lictus
prime. (pronounced,, LICKED'US). The shesval would be a baron
substitute and maby the knights would have six differant varients
and three or four light titan variants.

MOre ideas coming from the wabi sabi think tank,,, (vrrrrummmmmm).
