Tau: Kroot Combat Patrol

This packed box is the perfect way to start a new Kroot-themed T'au Empire collection – or expand an existing army – and save money compared to buying the kits individually. The army is led from the front by a Kroot Lone-spear sitting on the back of a lizard-like Kalamandra. Behind him charge Krootox Rampagers, an elite melee line-breaker unit. The core of the force is composed of a Farstalker Kinband, deadly hunters and versatile warriors capable of taking and holding vital objectives. Supporting the force is a Krootox Rider equipped with a heavy weapon. These 17 multipart plastic miniatures represent a complete T'au Empire force for use in tight, tactical Combat Patrol games of Warhammer 40,000. The rules for this Combat Patrol are available as a free download on the Warhammer Community website. This boxed set is only available while stocks last.

This boxed set builds 17 multipart plastic T'au Empire miniatures:

    1x Kroot Lone-spear
    1x Krootox Rider
    3x Krootox Rampagers
    12x Farstalker Kinband warriors

The miniatures in this box are easy to customise. The Kroot Lone-spear can be armed with either a massive Kroot long gun for sniping prey at a distance, or an explosive blast javelin and a quiver of razor-tipped hunting javelins for taking out high-value victims up-close. There’s a choice of two heads for the Lone-spear, as well as two head options and two poses for their Kalamandra.

The Krootox Rider carries one of two heavy weapons into battle – either a rapid-fire repeater cannon or a tanglecannon. The Krootox and rider both have a choice of two heads.

One of the Krootox Rampagers has a choice of two heads for both the rider and the mount, and the rider can be armed with a pistol or a blade. Another rider can choose between a blade and an axe.

The Farstalker Kinband is a versatile kit. The Kill-broker leader can be armed with either a Farstalker firearm or a T'au-tech rifle. Six of the Farstalkers have a choice of two different firearms, one can be optionally equipped for melee, one can take a Pech'ra, and another can take a Dvorgite skinner or a Londaxi tribalest. There are 13 interchangeable heads, 13 optional accessories, and the two Kroot Hound heads are interchangeable.

This kit comprises 297 plastic components, 1 Citadel 90mm by 52.5mm Oval Base, 1 Citadel 32mm Round Base, 4 Citadel 50mm Round Bases, and 11 Citadel 28.5mm Round Bases. These miniatures require assembly and are supplied unpainted
