First full game with new Tau

I finally got in a full game of 40k with the new Tau codex, thanks to the patience of Jason from Battlefront Games, who was willing to stay up far later than he should have. My thanks, sir! My army consisted of 3 squads of basic fire warriors, a single squad of kroot snipers, an ethereal, a crisis team with missile pods and fusion blasters for anti-armor, a pathfinder unit, a commander with drone controller escorting 8 marker drones, one bomber, and one of each heavy tank option. Jason's force was 3 tactical squads of space marines in drop pods, an ironclad dreadnought in another drop pod, a land raider full of assault terminators, a thunderfire cannon, Vulcan, and another special character I'm not sure of: Master of the Something-Or-Other. The game was Relic, which never moved the entire game! Basically, Jason's drop pods would come down, their contents would kill some of my stuff and get to touch the relic, then I would aim most of my firepower at it and wipe them out
