| You are right on the mechanics. During creation, Head-Guard/Helmet is better... but then you will struggle with the limiting factor of how many Rarity rolls you can take (1 per Officer).
I would leave the Officers with Flak... you will EVENTUALLY get it, you may as well save the Rarity roll now. I would drop the Club on one Sgt and exchange both Sgts Mesh for Flaks (have 4 credits to spare). Then have your Captain buy a grenade (max that 50% off!) _________________ .

| I like this new squad, also like the switch to Cadian ;D
Im still not a fan of starting with that much armor, but its personal taste.
I also like Mordheimers suggestions, a 6+ armor save is to really not worth the credit, at least at start up.
I think you should try to find the credit to buy a Reflex Scope for your Captain, At start up its only 11 credit for +1 BS, putting him at BS5.
Then use him (and Lieutants) to snipe enemy charaters with armor saves and enemy flamers, giving you the advantage when combat begins.
The rest af the squad should try to pick the "easy" targets, models with no armor and in the open, to giv better chance to put as many as possible out of action.

No need to "HOLY COW" me, ofc im right 
Personaly I would trade the Lieutants armor for Reflex Scopes also, but you should know my feeling about armor at start up by now.

| I went with a bolter and reflex scope on my captain in my Jenkala build. Haven't had a chance to try it, or even model them yet, but it seemed like a deadly combo.
On the modeling note, I eBayed a crap load of bits for my squad. I also tried to buy some time to spend on the minis, but it seems that time is currently out of stock indefinitely. |

| Well, I still like the Hellgun a lot. But I am definitely considering it. _________________ Arachas - The one who changes Avatars more than Lady Gaga changes costumes - Bursting with Dev-Powah™!!Tau Squad Co-Lead Designer |

| Personaly I prefere the Hellgun over the Bolter, but that is just personal tast.
I dont think the bolter is neither better or worse.
