A Respectable Finish with a Low-tier Faction
On the weekend of March 13-14, something rather interesting happened at the Clutch City GT down in Katy, Texas: a player finished a very respectable 7th place with a T’au Empire army. Today I’m going to analyse the list in order to decipher just how this unusual occurrence might have come about. (more…)
A Quick Fix for Under-performing Factions
A few days ago, abusepuppy wrote an article discussing the T’au Empire’s problem with taking and holding objectives. If you’ve not read it, I’d highly recommend giving it a look.

T’au Updates: Points Increases and Decreases
In my article a couple of weeks back, I discussed how the change to Mont’ka in the latest update to 9th edition affects the T’au Empire. This was undoubtedly the biggest change to the faction, and I think that it certainly deserved its own article. But in this article, I’m going to discuss some of […]
Fall Back and Shoot Without the Controversy
In my article last week, I discussed how the changes to the Mont’ka rule will affect the T’au. As we all know, the T’au Empire is one of the worst performing factions at the moment, and anything that improves the faction is a step in the right direction. (more…)
T’au Updates: the Change to Mont’ka
Games Workshop released a variety of FAQ and errata documents this week, and while there are many significant changes to game to discuss, in this article I’m going to focus on the updates to the T’au Empire. (more…)
