This is one of the other armies I've been collected for 40K. These units are from the Tau, who in the background to the game are a 'young' race compared to the other races in the universe who have been fighting for over 10,000 years. The Tau have a philosphy called 'for the Greater good' and have been described as somewhat 'naive'.
These are crisis battlesuits. So called as because they are highly mobile and armoured teams of these suits respond to 'crisis' on the battlefield.
These guys are the firewarriors. The rank and file of the Tau Fire caste armies. I have painted this squad up to respent a honour guard who escort an etheral, one of the Tau's honoured leaders.
This is a unit of drones. ( the black things their on are flying bases). Able to fly and equipped with twin linked rifles, The Tau make extensive use of drones to back up their armies because unlike the human armies the strategy of attrition is unknown to them.
This is a devilfish. the standard Tau transport vehicle. The Tau are a highly technological race and are constantly refining their technology and developing new weapons and technology to add in their struggle for the greater good. This is in a direct contrast to the Humans who view technology as something of a dark art and the techology they do have are remanants of a more glorious age.
