The Twin Lance

T’au Empire datasheet · 2 models — 230 points

Shas’ri Locai and Shas’ri Lantar fight with an aggression rarely seen amongst the Fire caste. There is a focus to their ferocity, however, leaping close to their foes in jet-assisted bounds and unleashing punishing firepower before discharging kinetic shock waves built up by their neocapacitor shields and retreating again amidst the resultant carnage.
