Grabbed a game against mattie's blood Angel's last Friday. I hope he'll weigh in with his thoughts of the list. Apologies if I mix up some of the details. I took too long to write this up and now forgot some specifics.

Turn 1
Tau were set up on the right of the table (see image.) Pathfinders were garrisoned forward, as were mattie's land speeders. Besides the dev bts, the rest of his army was off board, with the bikes in the thawks. I was lucky enough to win strategy and activated the Supremacy suit first, sustaining on a formation of land speeders, killing 2 but they remained unbroken. Next I retained and doubled my FW formation to fire on the damaged land speeders killing two more and breaking them.
Mattie responded with advancing his landspeeders on the pathfinders in the airbase, activating their OW. This was enough to kill four of them, breaking them.
The game took a breather here as both sides started to manage activations. I set a formation of razorsharks on CAP. Mattie ground attacked the pathfinders with the talons to place a second blast marker. I set the second razorshark formation on CAP.
Mattie advanced his devs, firing on my forward fw formation, destroying a Devilfish with a blood strike missile. I doubled with my Riptides, destroying the stormravens. The blood angels ground attacked the beat up pathfinders with a thawk, breaking them. The second thawk flew in seeking a ground assault on my R'varna. The razorsharks capped the thawk, destroying it on a crit, but were all shot down in return AA fire from the thawk. I marched the lucky R'varna to end turn 1.
