Farsight Enclave – Codex: Tau Empire supplement. More info after the break.
Wait so Farsight was a traitor? ZoMg. I am not going to lie to you guys- I LOVE the codex supplements that GW is putting out. It’s a more obtainable way for GW to come out with sub-sections within each army.
Pins of War did a great job in breaking down 7 essential facts for the new supplement.
#1 – XV8 Crisis Suits as Troops
#2 – Cannot Take Aun’Va or Shadowsun
#3 – Must Take Bonding Knifes
#4 – Riptide and Broadside Characters
#5 – Farsight Lives Thanks to the Dawn Blade
# 6 – Preferred Enemy (Orks)
#7 – Buckets of Special Characters
Though the Eldar player in my seriously wants to question WhyTF didn’t Iyanden get any special characters.. I still have to applaud the effort on GW’s part for really making what seems like a solid release. Unfortunately the Iyanden supplement is probably going to suffer for it’s placement as the first to come out, as more and more supplements arrive I think they will become more and more in depth.
A great summary of all the new rules for Farsight can be found here.
