*Cough* I think thats gonna be hard . And does anybody have sounds from dawn of war ? I really need Device Switch sound .

you can ask the guy who done the space marine mod, his sounds were from dawn of war

There's an add-on for garrysmod that adds some new NPCs, including a few Fire-Warriors, complete with sounds.

According to this There's also a pulse pistol which may flesh out the armory a bit.

I think a markerlight would also be interesting, the premise of it is pulled off well in the pelian-army mod.

To go much farther than that would definitely mean to make a battlesuit, which i imagine would be more difficult than making a firewarrior.

Judging from your screenshot, the actors legs are very very short, even for CC, and I distinctly remember Tau being quite leggy. I think your head is too big as well, this seems to be a problem you often have.

Make the head smaller and the legs bigger. then it will be awesome.

The Tau have the largest model that Forge World stocks, the Tau Manta - it weighs 28 pounds irl +an insane amount of troops.... these are plastic by the way. So for transports the only real option is the Ocha Dropship as shown before. Though you could go off a bit and make a devilfish with actor emmitters to simulate it being hard to see.... But i bet alot of people would get annoyed...
Also, the head looks odd to me as well, not just because of its size - play around with it a little...

The mod crashes my CC for unknown reasons. Guess I'll have to wait for the ful lreleased.

How would shield drones be work? They should emit a decent radius shield and draw fire....
Though sniper drones would be awesome. I doubt this is possible but: One actor comprised of drone controller + drones. Drones attack, etc. and are limbs. The controller is the torso, so if he dies the drones die.

Looks like Miles just listed out almost everything in the Tau army. But that might not be too hard to make, I mean, for e.g. Fire Warrior, Fire Warrior Leader and Pathfinder are just the same guy with different attachable armors; Broadside=Crisis Suit with heavy weapons pre-equipt. The only thing that's troublesome is to make all that pile of guns and balance them.

One question: are the regular warriors and the Broadside going to have jetpack? If not, then they'd be crippled quite badly. I suggest giving them weak jets for movement, and give stronger jets for prolonged flight for the stealth suits.

Also, is anyone craving for an XV-11 Experimental Stealth like me? WDIT: I meant XV22, cough.

Err... pretty much all battlesuits had pretty beefy jetpacks....

Oh crap . I need to make head smaller and legs longer . That will be a real problem for me . Thanks everybody for information but i need pics of weapons . Without pics of weapons i cant make anything so much tau-ish .

Nice! The actor needs a bit of sprite work, but I definatly download this again!

me want that!!!
wow...
