The Greater Good: Tau Empire Designer’s Notes

March 2006·pp. 18–31

THE SHORT VERSION

Andy Hoare explains how the Tau’s Third Sphere expansion changes the army’s identity and its revised codex. New auxiliaries and vehicles widen the force’s options while battlesuit equipment and markerlights deepen its characteristic coordination. The discussion moves from Shadowsun and Aun’Va to Vespid, Piranhas, Sky Rays and revised Kroot organization. Example gunline and air-cavalry armies demonstrate different ways to combine these developments without losing the Tau emphasis on supporting fire.
