This week sees the Tau getting an awesome new model from Forge World. The KX139 Ta’unar Supremacy Armour is the biggest battlesuit available to the Tau. It was developed to serve as a defensive weapon platform and as such lack the maneuverability of other battlesuits. It does however make up fort that with a devastating arsenal of long range weaponry.

The KX319 was  developed by Fio’o Ke’lshan Sho’aun to counter the Imperial Knights and Tryanid monstrosities which the Tau have been encountering more often as their empire grows.It comes armed with a pair of Tri-axis Ion Cannons and a Pulse Ordnance Multi-driver and a selection of smaller caliber weapons. This has to be my new favourite Tau kit from FW and at 600 points you could expect so see these on gaming tables in the no too distant future.

The kit will set you back £250 and can be ordered here. You can grab the rules here. More images below.
