Battlefleet Gothic: Armada - Tau Empire

Auxiliary Ships

• Kroot Warsphere – Battle Cruiser able to fire at any angle and impervious to almost all critical damage. Cannot turn, except when given an ‘All Ahead Full’ command in a new direction.
  
• Nicassar Dhow – Escort ship that can only be deployed through specially upgraded Tau ships’ abilities.
  
• Bastion Demiurg – Low-cost Battle Cruiser that’s weaker but features 4 skill slots to support the fleet with.
  
• Stronghold Demiurg – High-cost Battle Cruiser with stats almost matching that of a Battleship.

Tau Warfare System

• Mont’Ka Path –Battlesuits are utilized during assault actions. This reduces the enemy troop value by 5 and quadruples the chance of destroying a targeted subsystem (this also applies to weapon-sourced critical damage).
  
• Kauyon Path – Your fleet becomes far more accurate at long-range. The accuracy loss of every ship is reduced by 5℅ every 3k units starting from a 6k units range.

Castes

• Fire Caste – Designed for close-range action, Fire Caste ships are ideal for acting as vanguards while other vessels fire from afar.
  
• Water Caste – A versatile Caste, fitted with an active skill that summons a Nicassar Dhow escort and a passive that grants a bonus.
  
• Earth Caste – Focused on raw firepower, Earth Caste ships are fitted with an Experimental Railgun and additional Upgrade slot.
  
• Air Caste – Grants heightened agility by increasing speed and maneuverability, as well a special passive upgrade that greatly reduces enemy accuracy while the ship is performing a special maneuver.
