Set pulse rifles to maximum! Come see the new Tau codex that is 25% BIGGER than it’s 6th edition predecessor in our first look review of the new book.
This is the first codex release in recent memory that rules wise was just a sort of “second edition” of an already existing set of rules. For the 7th Edition version of Tau rules, you could use their existing 6th Edition codex, along with the new Kauyon supplement as an alternative to purchasing the new 2015 codex.

This 128-page hardback book contains:
- The story of the Tau Empire, their philosophies, technologies and their rapid ascension to the status of galaxy-striding warriors;
- A showcase of beautifully-painted Citadel miniatures, demonstrating colour schemes used by the Tau and their auxillaries;
- A comprehensive army list, helping you to bring the enlightenment of the Greater Good to the battlefields of the 41st millenium;
