KEYWORDS: INFANTRY, CORE, BATTLESUIT, BROADSIDE BATTLESUITS |
T’au Sept doctrine heavily emphasises the massed concentration of fire upon a single target at a time, obliterating each component of the enemy force in succession with a series of unrelenting barrages.
Bork’an scientists have distributed the latest prototype weapons amongst their sept’s Fire Caste contingents, optimised to increase range and accuracy.
Drones will dive into the path of incoming fire without a second thought if it means protecting T’au lives.
The battlesuits of high value T’au operatives are equipped with a fail-safes that ensure the pilot cannot be taken alive for interrogation.
Inspired by the fieldcraft of alien auxilia, the warriors of Dal’yth are practised in subtly encircling their foes.
Sa’cean cadres maintain close contact with Air Caste spotters in low orbit whose intelligence scans augment the accuracy of the Fire Caste.
T’au combined arms groups are called Hunter Cadres for good reason. Working in close coordination, they hunt and destroy the most dangerous enemy targets.
Even when under intense pressure, T’au warriors remain calm and resolute to break enemy charges with salvoes of fire.
Seeker missiles are designed to lock onto the remote targeting beacon provided by a markerlight beam and ride the signal all the way to their target, even bypassing and evading intervening terrain in the process.
Detecting an incoming enemy assault, the pilot’s battlesuit unleashes a hammer-pulse of kinetic energy strong enough to shatter bone.
