Positioning and role on the table
Stay in cover, play the objectives, and plan your movement to maintain pressure without unnecessary losses.
Why you want it in your army
- Instantly strengthens your army in-game
- A great choice for expanding after a Starter/Combat Patrol
- The model stands out on the table and is enjoyable to paint
How it performs in match-ups
- T'au Empire: Fits well into most lists and supports both objective play and pressure on the opponent.
- Add-ons: We recommend pairing it with units that cover weaknesses (anti-tank, screening, mobility).
- Match-up summary: Works best when you play objectives and choose your trades wisely. Against hordes, keep distance and clear units gradually; against elites, focus fire/attacks on key threats. Against vehicles, ensure you have anti-tank and focus one target at a time.
