Origin of the Species- Tau Spotted in Rogue Trader 40k?

By Rob Baer | October 19th, 2013 | Categories: 40k Flashback, Tau

Welcome to 40k Flashback, where I dig deep for something cool that I have from back in the day. Which according to the comic Dane Cook was a Wednesday…

You always hear the question: “How did you get into the hobby?”, and for me it was getting bored with assembling fighter jet models.

I could never afford the good jet kits either, lol. Plus those things had a ton of components, we’re spoiled by Games Workshop when it comes to piece count, believe me.

I saw this from the Rogue Trader rulebook the other day and thought it may be art for the origins or inspiration for the Tau / Kroot models.  Hey who knows how the art guys come up with this stuff, and we all know that 40k history tends to repeat itself IMHO…

I mean that thing on his head kinda looks like a Shield Drone, and hes got a “pulse” like gun too.

What do you think?  -MBG
