Below you will find quick-play army lists for the DAO Union from Grimdark Future.

Combat Patrol Tau (1000pts)

This is a v3.4.1 list you can build using the Combat Patrol: Tau Empire box by Games Workshop, or any other models of your choice.

Hide your Grunts well - its likely the only unit you have on the table round one. But, you're almost certainly going to go first the next round - mark something for either of your suit units to blow up when it drops, as the +1 bonus applies to the entirety of a shooting round - and 3+ or 2+ shooting on a model like that is very good.

This box also has the advantage of being easily useable for the Eternal Dynasty army, whose Quickplay army is based on the same box and changes the playstyle somewhat.
