Force Rules

Philosophies of War: Read here -> (Codex: Tau Empire p92)

Selection Rules

Ambushing Predators: At the start of the first battle round, models in this unit can make a Normal move of up to 7". They cannot end this move within 9" of any enemy models. (Codex: Tau Empire p93)

Artificial Helpers: DRONE models are ignored for the purposes of:

- The Look Out, Sir rule.
- Determining this unit's Starting Strength, and whether this unit is below Half strength.
- Determining this unit's toughness characteristic, if it also contains models without the DRONE keyword. (Codex: Tau Empire p94)

Battlesuits: BATTLESUIT models in this unit can make attacks with ranged weapons even when their unit is within Engagement Range of enemy units, but they can only make such attacks against enemy units that they are within Engagement Range of. In such circumstances, these models can target an enemy unit even if other friendly units are within Engagement Range of the same enemy unit.

Note that if a BATTLESUIT model has more than one ranged weapon, you can still choose to target units that are not within Engagement Range of its unit, but it will only be able to make the attacks with that weapon if all enemy units within Engagement Range of its unit have been destroyed when you come to resolve these attacks. In addition, when a BATTLESUIT model shoots a Heavy weapon, subtract 1 from the hit rolls when resolving that weapon's attacks while any enemy units are within Engagement Range of that model's unit. (Codex: Tau Empire p93)

Docked Drones: If this model is docked with another:

- Any weapons this model is equipped with are considered to be equipped to the model it is docked with instead.
- Attacks cannot be allocated to this model and it does not count as a model on the battlefield for any rules purposes.
- If the model it is docked with is destroyed, this DRONE model is destroyed as well. (Codex: Tau Empire p94)

Limited Parameters: If this unit contains only DRONE models, this unit cannot perform actions (excluding the Fire Markerlights action, page 93) and loses the Objective Secured ability if it has it, and cannot gain it through any means. (Codex: Tau Empire p94)

Manta Strike: During deployment, if every model in this unit has this ability, you can set up this unit in a Manta hold instead of setting it up
on the battlefield. If you do, then in the Reinforcements step of one of your Movement phases you can set up this unit anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9" away from any enemy models. (Codex: Tau Empire p93)

Valued Sacrifice: Each time a DRONE model in this unit is destroyed, it is ignored for the purposes of Morale tests if this unit contains models without the DRONE keyword. (Codex: Tau Empire p94)
