What tactics can you recommend for the Tau Empire?
Answer
I would recommend a generally mobile force, with the intention to pick off the opponents transports and fast troops, to allow the Tau mobility to unable you to pick isolated elements of the enemy and zoom in late game to capture/contest objectives.
A typical force would be:
Shas'el - keep him cheap
2 units of (2-3) crisis suits - I recommend the cheap weapon load outs, eg. twin missile pod & flamer or missile pod, burst cannon, multi-tracker
10 Fire Warriors in a Devilfish
2 units of 10-14 kroot - put them in a forest, if available, for a 2+ cover save if they "go to ground". Alternatively they one could outflank if there is likely be small enemy units or objectives close to the board edges
1 unit of 15-20 kroot with 6-12 Kroot Hounds - To Outflank
2 Hammerheads (Railguns)
1 unit of 2/3 broadsides with advanced stabilization systems
Any points left could be spent on Pathfinders and/or stealths, and to ensure there are sufficient drones attached to the suit team leaders to ensure their survival.
It's would be too lengthy a post to full answer to your question, so instead I'll refer you to two good site for Tau tactics:

How can i start a good Chaos Daemons army?
Daemons are a hard army to start unless you've got a pretty large amount of cash. First of all you need a codex, second fill out your compulsory with your HQ and 2 troops. You need to read through your codex and experiment on the kind of daemons you want, Nurgle, Tzneetch, Khorne, Slanesh. Each have their own advantages and disadvantages, keep in mind a daemon army has almost no shooting ability, so your gonna be trying to get up close, fast.

Answer The Tau manta is a super-heavy vehicle. The rules for it can be found in Imperial Armour 3: The Taros campaign. General super-heavy rules can be found in other Forge World books
Well I am not a Tau player, so it's a rough guess for me. To my knowledge the marker light drones look like Gun Drones, just instead of the guns on the bottom there's a comm-like relay on the top of the drone.
Now as to where to find them on the sprues, I have no idea, Hope what I posted can help you some.

How can you get a tyranid swarmlord?
Like most new tyranids there is no official model but you can make one: Buy and make a normal hive tyrant without the arms. Then (off eBay from other players or however you can get your hands on them) get four boneswords and use those for arms, find yourself a second hive tyrant tail and cut it so you can glue it halfway down the original tail then get yourself a spike (the hive tyrant comes with one) and glue it behind the first on the head.
How many men do you need to play Warhammer?
There is no set amount of 'men' required to play Warhammer, as it is a points and unit based system. Each character or unit of 'men' (Elves, dragons, Chaos Space Marines, Monsters... the list goes on) is worth a set amount of points. When you play a game or Warhammer 40,000 or Warhammer Fantasy, you and your opponent will agree on a certain points limit for the battle.
You select units for your army, ensuring that the sum total of their points does not exceed the total agreed upon by the waring parties. The force you select also has to include certain elements, and these differ between then Warhammer systems.
To play a Warhammer 40,000 game, you have to have a HQ (Commander type character) and two units of troops.
For Warhammer Fantasy you must take a Lord, and two units of core.

I have a budget of 70.00 for a warhammer army what should i do?
It depends, are you talking about a 40k army or just a Warhammer army? A codex costs $25, and you need it to play. You will need 2 Troops and an HQ for a basic force. You might be able to start a small space marine army with two 5 man squads and a captain. You could start a very small Daemonhunters army if you buy 2 boxes of Cadians and use them as Stormtroopers (a pretty simple conversion) that should run you $45ish (unless you make two 5 man squads then you only need one box and that cuts the price in half) alone then you'd need an Inquisitor or a Grey knights hero which runs $15ish. You could also do the same thing with a Witch hunters army except instead of the Hero it's a Sisters of Battle Heroine. Wtih $90 you could get started with almost an army, $70 is cutting it close. I don't know enough about the xenos armies or chaos to know the prices. Hope this helps!
