40k tau manta12/7/2023 The selection of Stratagems have also been trimmed for all factions in 10th edition with just six (in addition to those in the Core Rulebook) available to the Adeptus Custodes – these being locked behind the Kauyon Detachment. ![]() Through Unity, Devistation buffs the attached unit’s performance when selected as an Observer unit, graning the Lethal Hits ability to their Guided unit counterpart! Precision of the Patient Hunter works in conjunction with teh Kauyon bonuses to grant a +1 to hit for ranged attacks and and additional +1 to wound rolls for ranged attacks from the third battle round onward. Only Characters (not including Epic Heroes) can be upgraded with Enhancements and they are limited to just a single choice (although you can take up to three across your entire army).Įxemplar of the Kauyon is a nice upgrade that allows the unit to which the bearer is attached to benefit from the Kauyon from the second battle round onwards! Puretide Engram Neurochip allows you to re-use a Stratagem that may already have been used on a different unit. The Enhancements themselves are associated with the aforementioned Kauyon Detachment and are only availble to make use of if you have selected this specifc Detachment. Kauyon EnhancementsĮnhancements are a new concept in Warhammer 40,000 10th edition and essentially bring together a number of Warlord Traits, Relics and other ‘unit upgrades’ from across the different 9th edition books. The Kauyon is the T’au Empire Detachment rule (I suspect we’ll see Mont’ka at some point in the future too) and grants all models in the army (including vehicles and such) and grants all models the Sustained Hits 1 ability from the third battle round, increasing to Sustained Hits 2 if that unit has been selected as a Guided unit. Ordinarily there are no longer any ‘army-build’ restrictions imposed upon the player when using a Detachment although T’au are slightly different here in that you are not able to mix Commander Farsight or Ethereal units in the same army – they still don’t get along it seems. Kauyon Detachmentĭetachment rules have also changed quite a bit in 10th edition with each faction gaining access to a single faction-specific Detachment (although I suspect we’ll see more options as Codexes are published). Note though that Tactical Drones can still be taken as a unit, which, may be a bit confusing on the battlefield. Gun Drones grant the upgraded unit an additional ranged weapon option whereas the Shield Drone adds 1 to the Wounds characteristic of the bearer. The T’au also get a new re-worked set of Drone rule which now act as an upgrade for individual models within a unit, the Drones themselves acting merely as ‘tokens’ to represent said upgrades. ![]() Watch out though as you’ll be penalised for targetting a non-spotted unit! When the Guided unit targets a nominated enemy Spotted unit it will benefit from a number of bonuses such as +1 to hit and Ignores Cover. No surprises really that the T’au Empire’s rule is called For The Greater Good that will see you using your units in pairs, nominating a unit to be an Observer unit and a second to be a Guided unit. ![]() As with all other factions in 10th edition, the T’au now have a much more streamlined set of army rules.
