Strategic Ploys.................................................34 Sister of Silence Witchseeker ......................62 Bloodletter (Horn Bearer) ............................ 91 This gives you 10 operatives and 3 drones, whereas one of those drones (MB3 Recon Drone) counts as two operatives. This gives you a full Kill Team consisting of two full Fire Teams. But there’s still some options you don’t have (operatives as well as drones) which really would be useful to be able to choose from if you plan to play competitively. The options we’re missing are the following: 2x Weapons Expert Pathfinders with Ion Rifles, MV33 Grav-Inhibitor Drone, MV31 Pulse Accelerator Drone, MV1 Gun Drone and 2x Shas’la Pathfinders to fill up the roster to 20. To get all the options now missing you’ll sadly need to buy another Box of Tau Pathfinders and a Blister of Tactical Drones (or you’ve got one drone top lying around in your bits box from another set) or you buy a single drone top from a Bits Store. This is necessary since the Tau Pathfinder Box only comes with two regular drone tops and you’re missing 4 drone variants to have all available. On a positive side, you get lots off leftover bits to use for decoration or for your Tau army if you have one. When you bought the necessary boxes / parts feel free to follow the second part of my guide.

With five ruined walls and two larger ruins offering deadly vantage points for snipers, and plenty of doors and hatches for sneaky operatives to get the jump on their foes, it’s the perfect stage for a bloody bout of covert operations. But what is the true value of this starter set itself?

The Kill Team Compendium has not been included in any of the boxed Kill Team releases (so far), so you’ll have to buy it separately – and it isn’t cheap. This gives you the complete Tau Pathfinder Kill Team Roster with each possible option at least available once. You’ve got all specialists and drones as well as some ‘basic’ Pathfinder choices. With this roster, you should be able to field every competitively viable composition. So, not only is the Kill Team Compendium expensive, but it is also bereft of unique rules for a huge number of models. These unique rules for your models look as if they are going to be included in the Rules Manuals that come with each Kill Team expansion box. So, you’re going to have to spend even more money to get all the info you need for your faction. This new set includes two new kill teams – T’au Pathfinders and Battle Sister Novitiates, with new models and new equipment – as well as a vast array of plastic scenery and a double-sided game board.WYSIWYG = What You See Is What You Get. This term is used to describe that a certain model can only represent the role / function it is built as and only use the weapons and equipment it was built with (excluding grenades - those are only really for decorative purposes most of the time, altough I wouldn't recommend putting grenades on units which aren't able to use them). To give an example. If you build the Plasma Gunner Veteran and you are attending in an official tournament you would only ever be able to play the Plasma Gunner Veteran as a Plasma Gunner Veteran and not as a Melta Gunner Veteran or Trooper Veteran. When I first saw that there were only 7 pieces of scenery in this box, I remember thinking that it seemed a bit frugal. “Only seven little bits of ruined wall? Pshaw.” The rules and datacards for your Kill Team (Either from the Kill Team Compendium, White Dwarf issue, or Kil Team Supplement)
