I want to stab Tau with vanilla SM. What units would be best for both surviving the charge and doing the stabbing?

Are Librarian Dreads, Furiosos, and Death Company dreads worth taking now?
I don't understand why people don't like Librarian Dreads - the argument is one lascannon can blow it up but that's also true of a regular librarian. The only difference is you can look out sir a regular librarian but they can be killed by sheer volume of fire while a Libby dread needs to be targeted by very high strength 8+ weaponry.

surviving the charge is gonna be the hardest part. Take Iron Hands Command Squad with Apothecary, Storm Shields and power weapons of choice (mauls wouldn't be bad since FWs dont have good armor anyway).

Bought the Deldar codex and my first box of warriors, I can't wait for my LGS to get the new start collecting kit!

The 40k players at my shop are mostly well adjusted, normal guys who aren't complete autists lIke the warmachine and mtg players.

skyhammer bikes with librarian babysitters
for a non-meme answer.. it depends. A stormraven dropping off an assault unit+dread can get work done, but you're going to be running a gauntlet of interceptor/skyfire thanks to all the tau options.
Similarly, depending on what kind of AV they're packing, a land-raider CAN deliver a unit unmolested, it's just really expensive.
Drop pod saturation is another option, but that's going to be messy no matter what they have.

>FWs what about riptides?

Get fucked, basically. Instead of taking power weapons, take gravguns on those bikes and just volley him down.

Why hasn't someone written a unique skirmish ruleset using GW models?
Not just kill team, something that's functionally and mechanically distinct from 40k. You could almost certainly do it in such a way that you're not in violation of copyright.
