Shaso Dragonflys Independent Codex: Tau Empire

Tau Empire Special Rules

Crisis Reaction Force If your army list includes a Shaso in a XV8 Crisis battlesuit then you may choose to use a different Force Organization Chart arrangement than a normal Tau Empire army list. In this alternate arrangement, XV 8 Crisis Battlesuit Teams are available as a Troops selection; Fire Warrior Teams, Human Auxiliaries Teams, and Pathfinder Teams become Elites choices; and XV9 Hazard Battlesuit Teams are not available at all. This rule is exclusive with the Hazard Reaction Force rule and other FOC-changing rules, you may use one or the other, but not both. Death on the Wing A unit with this special rule may fire Assault weapons in the same turn in which it has run and it only rolls a single D6 if it scatters when Deep Striking. Death to Traitors! Units of the Imperium (Imperial Guard, Space Marines, etc.) always hit models of a Human Auxiliaries Team on a 3+ in close combat, regardless of relative Weapon Skill. Fieldcraft A unit with this special rule moving through Difficult Terrain do not have to roll to see how far they can move, they may always move up to 6. Any enemy unit claiming a Cover Save against the effects of shooting from a unit with this rule has its Cover Save reduced by one (i.e. a 4+ Cover Save becomes a 5+, and so forth). Also, a unit with this rule is so good at finding cover in even the barest terrain that they have at least a 6+ Cover Save at all times, even standing completely in open terrain (however a Cover Save gained this way is not affected by the Stealth universal special rule). For the Greater Good! Whenever an Ethereal with a Fire Warrior Honor Guard loses a wound roll a D6. On a result of 4 or higher remove one of the Honor Guard as a casualty instead and the Ethereal does not lose a wound. Hazard Reaction Force - If your army list includes a Shaso in a XV9 Hazard battlesuit then you may choose to use a different Force Organization Chart arrangement than a normal Tau Empire army list. In this alternate arrangement, XV 9 Hazard Battlesuit Teams are available as a Troops selection; Fire Warrior Teams, Human Auxiliaries Teams, and Pathfinder Teams become Elites choices; and XV8 Crisis Battlesuit Teams are not available at all. This rule is exclusive with the Crisis Reaction Force rule and other FOC-changing rules, you may use one or the other, but not both. Infantry (jetpack) Units of this type follow all of the rules for the Jump Infantry (jet pack) Unit Type, except that they may only make a single move each turn, either in the Movement phase, or the Assault phase, but not both. If done in the Movement phase, the movement may use the rules for jumping or walking, if done in the Assault phase the jumping rules must be used. Inspiring Presence The Ethereal and all Tau units (not Humans, Kroot, Vespid, or drones) with a line of sight to him may re-roll any and all Morale checks, even successful ones. In addition all friendly units with line of sight to the Ethereal gain the Stubborn universal special rule. Line of sight, for purposes of this rule only, is not affected by Night-Fighting conditions. However, all other LOS- limiting rules apply. Marker Beacon The unit with this rule is equipped with an array of sensor beacons designed to guide Deep Striking units to their deployment areas. Tau units deploying by means of the Deep Strike rule to a point visible to a model in this unit scatter only half as far as would otherwise be indicated, rounding odd numbers down. Note that the unit must already be on the table at the start of the turn for the Marker Beacon rule to be used.

Price of Failure If a friendly Ethereal is killed then every unit of Tau on the table (not Humans, Kroot, Vespid, or drones) must take a Morale check at the start of their next turn if they are not in close combat or falling back. In addition, every Tau unit that takes this test, regardless of success or failure, will add +1 to their Ballistic Skill until the end of the game. Redeployment Drill A unit with this rule, if it fired only Pulse Pistols, Pulse Rifles, or Pulse Carbines during its Shooting phase, may move D6 inches during the following Assault phase. If it does so, the unit may not launch an assault or take any other actions during its Assault phase. Additionally, on a turn in which the unit disembarks from a transport; its disembarkation move does not count as movement for purposes of firing Rapid Fire or Heavy weapons. Independent Characters that join the unit gain the benefit of this rule also. Drones that join the unit may benefit from this rule as well, as long as they have the (jet pack) unit sub-type, regardless of what weapons they fire in the Shooting phase. Skilled Flyers A unit with this special rule may re-roll failed Dangerous Terrain tests. Survivors to the Last A unit with this rule may always attempt to regroup, regardless of any conditions that would otherwise prevent it from doing so.

Battlesuit Armory
Barrage Pod Range 24, Str 6, AP3, Heavy 4, No Cover Saves Blacksun System A model with this system doubles the amount rolled on the dice to see how far his unit can see in Night-Fighting conditions. The unit only gains this benefit as long as the model with the Blacksun System is alive. Blockade Shield Generator A model with this system gains a 3+ Invulnerable Save. Burst Cannon Range 18, Str 5, AP 5, Assault 3, Rending Command and Control Node All friendly units with a model within 12 may use the bearers Leadership as their own. Drone Controller A model with a Drone Controller must take one or two Gun, Marker, or Shield Drones, in any combination, from their options list. Some units have access to more specialized drone than these 3 basic types. Flamer Range Template, Str 4, AP 5, Assault 1, No Cover Saves Flechette Dischargers When a model with this system is assaulted, every model in the enemy unit will automatically be wounded on a 4+, Armor Saves applying as normal, before resolving any attacks. If four or more models in a unit have this system then roll twice to wound every model in the enemy unit. Fusion Blaster Range 12, Str 8, AP 1, Assault 1, Melta Fusion Cascade Range 12, Str 6, AP 1, Assault D3, Melta Heavy Flamer Range Template, Str 5, AP 4, Assault 1, No Cover Saves

Markerlight Range 36, Str n/a, AP n/a, Heavy 1. Each time you hit a target unit with a Markerlight, put a counter by that unit. The counters remain until the end of the current Tau Shooting phase or until they are used. Counters may be expended by subsequently fire Tau (and Human and Vespid units, so long as the Guevesaui or Strain Leader is alive) firing at the marked unit. Every counter expended grants the firing unit one of the following effects, which may be combined: To allow a volley of Seeker Missiles or Submunitions Missiles to be fired at the marked unit. At least one missile must be fired, but no more than 6, and no more than are actually mounted on the vehicles in your army. Seeker missiles fired this way hit automatically. For Submunitions Missiles, roll 2 scatter dice and 2 normal dice, taking the most favorable result from each set. To allow a unit which fires at the target to do so at +1 to its Ballistic Skill. If the firing unit fires any weapons with blast markers, the model firing the blast weapon does so at +2 to its Ballistic Skill. This effect may be stacked, allowing a Ballistic Skill up to a maximum of 5 (or 6 for models firing blast weapons). To allow the firing unit to ignore the effects of the Night Fighting rule or enemy Stealth Field Generators when shooting at the marked unit. To impose a -1 Leadership penalty on the marked unit until the end of the Tau Shooting phase. Multiple counters may be expended to impose a cumulative modifier. To deny any Cover Saves the marked unit may have from the effects of the firing units shooting. To deny the benefits of being Obscured to any marked vehicle. To subtract 1 inch from the marked units movement in either its next Movement or Assault phase. Which phase is to be affected must be declared when the counter is expended. Multiple counters may be expended to impose a cumulative penalty or to affect movement in both phases. To call in a heavy missile barrage from a nearby Manta or an orbital strike from overhead Korvattra (Air Caste space fleet) assets. Expend 3 marker counters and the target unit is struck by a Str 8, AP 3, Large Blast attack, roll for scatter as if fired by a BS 4 unit. In any case, the use of a counter must always be declared before to-hit rolls are made by the firing unit, and the counter is only removed after rolls to-hit have been made. So if the firing unit cannot see the target unit because of the Night-Fighting rule (or any other reason) the counter is not removed. Additionally, Markerlights do not benefit from the effects of other Markerlights. Missile Pod Range 36, Str 7, AP 4, Assault 2 Multi-tracker A model with this system may fire up to two weapon systems in the same turn. Networked Markerlight Functions exactly as a Markerlight, except that the operators own unit may benefit from it. Resolve the fire of any Networked Markerlights before the units other shooting. Phased Ion Blaster Range 18, Str 3, AP 4, Assault 4, Rending Phased Ion Gun Range 18, Str 4, AP 4, Assault 4, Rending Plasma Rifle Range 24, Str 6, AP 2, Rapid Fire Positional Relay From the second turn onward, as long as the bearer of this system is on the table at the beginning of the turn, a single unit that is being held in Reserve may be deployed on a D6 roll of a 2+, though no other units in Reserve may be deployed this turn.

Pulse Submunitions Gun Range 18, Str 4, AP 5, Assault 1, Large Blast, No Cover Saves Pulse Submunitions Rifle Range 24, Str 5, AP 5, Assault 1, Large Blast, No Cover Saves Riposte Drone Controller Drones controlled by this system are fitted before battle with special programming and flechette dischargers. This system functions exactly as a normal Drone Controller with a few additional abilities. If the unit that the drones controller is in withdraws from an assault using the Hit and Run universal special rule the following occurs: the assault withdrawal is automatically successful, all drones controlled by this system are removed as casualties, and every model in the enemy unit being withdrawn from is automatically wounded on a 4+ (Armor Saves apply as normal). Shield Generator A model with this system gains a 4+ Invulnerable Save. Smart Missile Pods Range 24, Str 5, AP 5, Heavy 4, No Cover Saves Targeting Array A model with this system gains +1 to its Ballistic Skill. Target Lock A model with this system may target a separate enemy unit to that engaged by the rest of its own unit. All firing in the unit must be declared before any to-hit rolls are made. Targeting Matrix A model with this system can grant any one model in its unit (including itself) the ability to fire all of its weapons as if twin-linked. The model to benefit from this must be declared each Shooting phase before any to-hit rolls are made. A unit may benefit from only one Targeting Matrix at a time and Markerlights may not benefit from this system. Vectored Retro-Thrusters A model with this system benefits from the Hit and Run universal special rule. If one model in a team has this system, then all models in the team must be similarly equipped, and if one model makes use of the system, all must do so. The unit may still take drones.

Battlesuit Wargear
Bonding Knife A model with this item grants the unit it is in the ability to regroup even if below half strength. Ejection System When a model with this system loses its last wound to a shooting attack that does not cause Instant Death, replace it with a single model representing the pilot. This model has the following profile: WS BS S T W I A Ld Sv * * 3 3 1 2 * * 5+ Pilot The models WS and Ld are the same as before it ejected, its BS and A are one less than before, and it is equipped with a Pulse Pistol only. Grav Stabilizers A model equipped with this system may choose to use the Slow and Purposeful universal special rule for the duration of its Movement phase, though if it does so it may not make an additional jetpack move in the Assault phase. If one model in a team has this system, then all models in the team must be similarly equipped, and if one model makes use of the system, all must do so. The unit may still take drones. Hard-Wired Systems The same rules apply to a system whether it is hard-wired or not and they do not count towards the number of systems a battlesuit character can take. Only characters with access to wargear may choose Hard-Wired Systems.

Iridium Armor Plates The models Armor Save is increased to 2+, but the additional 6 move in the Assault phase is reduced to D6. If any model in a unit has Iridium Armor Plates, the entire unit suffers the Assault move reduction. Photon Casters A model with this system counts as having defensive grenades. Stealth Field Generator A model with this system gains a 4+ Cover Save against any shooting attacks fired from more than 12 distant. Any drones controlled by a model with this system will also be shielded at no further cost. Stimulant Injector A model with this system gains the benefit of the Feel No Pain universal special rule.

Tau Armory
EMP Grenades These are used when assaulting enemy vehicles, hitting in the same way as grenades. When determining damage, roll a D6. On a 4 or 5 they inflict a glancing hit, on a 6 they inflict a penetrating hit. Frag grenades Models with these count as having assault grenades. Honor Blade This counts as a pair of Rending close combat weapons. In additional, attacks made with an Honor Blade add +2 to the wielders Strength. Kroot Gun Range 48, Str 7, AP 4, Rapid Fire. Kroot Rifle Range 24, Str 4, AP 6, Rapid Fire. Also counts as an additional close combat weapon, so a model equipped with a Kroot Rifle counts as having two close combat weapons. Neutron Disruptor Range Template, Str 5, AP 3, Assault 1, No Cover Saves Pulse Blaster Range 24, Str 4, AP 4, Assault 3 Pulse Carbine Range 18, Str 5, AP 5, Assault 2. In addition, any unit that suffers a casualty from a Pulse Carbine will make all of its moves in its next turn as if in Difficult Terrain. Pulse Pistol Range 12, Str 5, AP 5, Pistol Pulse Rifle Range 30, Str 5, AP 5, Heavy 2. In addition, the following alternate ammo types may be available to a Pulse Rifle equipped unit: Heavy Pulse Rounds Range 24, Str 6, AP 6, Heavy 1 Shaped Pulse Rounds Range 30, Str 4, AP 4, Heavy 2 Plasma Core Rounds Range 24, Str 4, AP 3, Heavy 2 Photon Grenades Models with these count as having defensive grenades. Rods of Faith and Unity These count as a pair of Rending close combat weapons. Vespid Neutron Blaster Range 12, Str 5, AP 3, Assault 2

Heavy Weapons Systems

Barrage Pod Range 24, Str 6, AP3, Heavy 4, No Cover Saves Fusion Cannon Range 24, Str 8, AP 1, Heavy 1, Blast, Melta Heavy Burst Cannon Range 24, Str 6, AP 4, Assault 3, Rending Ion Cannon Range 60, Str 7, AP 3, Heavy 4 Multi-Missile Pods Range 36, Str 7, AP 4, Heavy 6 Plasma Cannon Range 36, Str 7, AP 2, Heavy 2, Blast Railgun Range 72, Str 10, AP 1, Heavy 1. Vehicular versions usually have access to Submunitions Rounds with the following profile: Range 72, Str 6, AP 4, Heavy 1, Large Blast, No Cover Saves. Rail Rifle Range 36, Str 6, AP 3, Heavy 1, Pinning, Rending Smart Missile Pods Range 24, Str 5, AP 5, Heavy 4, No Cover Saves

Vehicle Wargear
Advanced Targeting Matrix Skimmers cannot claim the Cover Save gained due to moving flat-out against shots fired by a model with this system. Similarly, bikes cannot claim the Cover Save gained due to turbo-boosting against shots fired by a model with this system. Barrage Targeter A model with this system counts as having +2 to its Ballistic Skill only for the purpose of determining the distance scattered by any blast weapons it fires. Blacksun Filter A vehicle with this system doubles the amount rolled on the dice to determine how far it can see in Night-Fighting conditions. Disruption Pod A vehicle with this system counts as being Obscured against any shooting attacks fired from more than 12 distant. Drone Stowage Rack Units embarking on a transport vehicle with this system do not count up to 6 attached drones against the vehicles transport capacity. Does not work for all-drone units. Flechette Discharger Any model assaulting a vehicle with this system will automatically be wounded on a 4+, Armor Saves applying as normal, before resolving any attacks. Fusion Missile Range unlimited, Str 8, AP 1, Heavy 1, single use only. Vehicles may only be equipped with a maximum of 2 Fusion Missiles each (except for the Sky Ray tank) and they may not fire their own Fusion Missiles unless equipped with a Networked Markerlight. The missiles do not need a line of sight from the vehicle they are mounted on to the target. The missile is assumed to move in a straight line between the model carrying it and the target for the purposes of deciding whether the shot strikes the front, side, or rear of a vehicle target. A vehicle may only be equipped with one type of missile from the vehicle wargear list.

Gun Drones A vehicle may be equipped with 2 Gun Drones. The drones will move with the vehicle, safely contained in specially-designed recesses. During any Tau Movement phase, the drones may disengage in the same way as infantry dismount from a transport and form an independent unit. From then on, the drones function as an independent Gun Drone Squadron. The drones may not rejoin the vehicle during a game, never count as a scoring unit, and do not give up a Kill Point if destroyed. While attached to the vehicle, the Gun Drones may always fire (regardless of how fast the vehicle has moved or how many other weapons it has fired), using their own BS. The drones are treated as passengers if the vehicle is damaged. Landing Gear In any turn in which a vehicle with this system does not move, it may choose to no longer count as a Skimmer until it moves again. This benefit does not apply on the first turn of the game. Multi-tracker A vehicle with this system may fire as if it were a fast vehicle. Seeker Missile Range unlimited, Str 8, AP 3, Heavy 1, single use only. Vehicles may only be equipped with a maximum of 2 Seeker Missiles each (except for the Sky Ray tank) and they may not fire their own Seeker Missiles unless equipped with a Networked Markerlight. The missiles do not need a line of sight from the vehicle they are mounted on to the target. The missile is assumed to move in a straight line between the model carrying it and the target for the purposes of deciding whether the shot strikes the front, side, or rear of a vehicle target. A vehicle may only be equipped with one type of missile from the vehicle wargear list. Sensor Spines A skimmer vehicle with this system may opt to enter terrain instead of floating above it, therefore gaining the benefit of being Obscured. In addition, the Sensor Spines allow the vehicle to avoid the effects of difficult and dangerous terrain. Submunitions Missile Range unlimited, Str 6, AP 4, Heavy 1, No Cover Saves, single use only. Vehicles may only be equipped with a maximum of 2 Submunitions Missiles each (except for the Sky Ray tank) and they may not fire their own Submunitions Missiles unless equipped with a Networked Markerlight. The missiles do not need a line of sight from the vehicle they are mounted on to the target. The missile is assumed to move in a straight line between the model carrying it and the target for the purposes of deciding whether the shot strikes the front, side, or rear of a vehicle target. A vehicle may only be equipped with one type of missile from the vehicle wargear list. Target Lock Each weapon on a vehicle with this system may fire at a separate target if so desired, subject to normal line of sight restrictions. Vector Matrix A vehicle with this system may always fire one more weapon than would normally be permitted.

Drones Drones under the command of a Drone Controller are counted when assessing if the unit they are with should take a Morale check for having taken 25% casualties. They are similarly counted when determining if the unit is over half strength for any purpose. In all other respects treat controlled Drones as a normal member of the controllers unit. Drones must maintain coherency with the unit their controller is in. If he is an Independent Character, then the Drones and character form a unit, but the character and Drones may still join another unit. If the model with the Drone Controller is killed then all of his Drones are removed at the end of the Shooting or Assault Phase in which he died.
