Warhammer 40,000: Combat Patrol – T’au Empire
The T’au Empire wins wars through precision, coordination, and advanced technology. This Combat Patrol is a fast way into the faction – you get a balanced detachment with a Devilfish transport, hard-hitting Breachers, scouting Pathfinders, and a stealth unit to apply pressure on objectives. Perfect for Combat Patrol games and a strong core for expanding your army – plus you save compared to buying the kits separately.
What’s inside the box?
Inside you’ll find 25 plastic miniatures (multipart). The force is led by a Cadre Fireblade, includes 10× Breacher Team for aggressive close-range objective play, and 10× Pathfinder Team for scouting, fire support, and board control. You also get 3× Stealth Battlesuits for sneaky manoeuvres and a Devilfish as a fast transport. The set also includes 2× Tactical Drones.

Basic tactics
| Key element | How it works |
|---|---|
| Breachers drop | The Devilfish gets you onto an objective – disembark Breachers and force a close-range fight |
| Board control | Pathfinders and Stealth Suits help hold the mid-board and limit your opponent’s movement |
| Play the objectives | T’au often wins by outplaying with positioning and firepower – not by pure brawling |
| Protect key units | Stay in cover and force your opponent into unfavourable trades |
