The Deployment:
Tau army was missing a lot of models so we improvised, Tower of skulls is the Stormsurge, red Rhinos and Plague Catapult are Hammerheads, Forgefiend is Longstrike, all Firewarriors are Kroots, Daemon Prince is Farsight and bikes are Tetra Scout Speeder Team.
Farsight is in reserves. Rubric Marines and Warpsmith in Rhino. Abaddon in reseves.
