Kroot Trail Shaper

T’au Empire datasheet · 1 model — 50 points

Trail Shapers are more than simply masters of fieldcraft. As their title implies, they work with instinctive skill to shape the very battlef ield upon which the Kroot will meet their prey, the guiding routes along which the hunt will progress and the nature of the engagements in which their kindreds fight. A single Trail Shaper can alter the entire character of a war in the favour of the T’au Empire.
