Nobody is Safe From the Awesome Power of The T’au Empire’s New and Improved Railgun
For the T’au Empire, warfare means massed pulse rifle fire, hit-and-run battlesuits, and the whip-crack report of awesomely powerful railguns making mincemeat of enemy vehicles. We’ve looked at the first two already, so it’s time to tackle the railgun – the shining star of T’au engineering, and the dependable Hammerhead tank it’s often mounted on.
Popular with proponents of both the Mont’ka and Kauyon philosophies, rail weapons use magnetic fields to fire metal slugs at very high velocity, punching through armour like paper. And in the upcoming Codex: T’au Empire, they’ve had a considerable upgrade.
The Fire Caste use several varieties, from the Pathfinders‘ rail rifles to the heavy rail cannons of a Manta Missile Destroyer, but it’s the Hammerhead’s railgun that all others are compared to.
There are a few things to break down here. With an AP of -6 and the ability to ignore invulnerable saves, your payload will be making it through almost any kind of energy field, daemonic protection, or battle plate that might stand in its way.
Once that shot hits home, it delivers eye-watering damage with the potential to knock out vehicles and large monsters in a single shot. With such a powerful single slug, connecting with each shot is crucial, so the Hammerhead has an advanced targeting array that pairs well with the new Markerlights rules.
The Hammerhead is shockingly effective at turning single targets into smoking wrecks, but what if the enemy is coming in numbers? Faced with smaller foes, Hammerhead pilots can load short-ranged Submunitions.
The railgun is not the only big hitter getting a major update in the new Codex: T’au Empire – would you believe it isn’t even the strongest weapon in their arsenal? We’ll be having a look at a few more soon, but in the meantime, you should brush up on the devious plans of the Genestealer Cults and Adeptus Custodes.

несколько мыслей автора на тему ИИ, автор http://rodrigo-vega.deviantart.com/
619) Tesla walker: We have alredy abused enough in science fiction with tesla stuff... maybe tesla coils are just the quintessential futuristic or retrofuturistic mad scientist invention and they perfectly match a crazy robot.
620) Imperial guard: Inspired by 40k, I made some sort of.. imperial guard... Roman looking robot armed with a gladius, a smaller dagger and some kind of gun.
621) Tactical defender: This robot is designed to stand its ground while receiving heavy fire (thats what the shield is for, duh!). To avoid stress of the parts, reduce friction and optimize the absorption of the energy it hoover some centimetres above the ground transforming the impact of the projectile into movement... so technically it does not hold its ground at all, its not even in contact with the ground. But It is a good defender, thats for sure.
622) The Aerial: The ultimate walking tower... because we don't see many walking towers around. This defense engine carries a powerful shield generator, long range missiles, a ring of massive guns around the "hips" and smaller anti-personal guns from the knees to the ankles.
623) M-23 Suppressor: An assassination unit. First of all let me make something clear; a human shape would be the last I would think of when thinking about movement efficiency, and overall... deadlyness. Spiders, snakes... dogs! everything would make a better assassin in my opinion, but sometimes peer pressure wins the game, and with so many killer androids out there I had to make one too. I can't remember if it had any ranged weapons, but the blades are just find, the one on the right hand is motorized by the way.
624) Adan: The first one of a new breed of robots, faster, stronger, and smarter than humans.. hmnn well, thats it.
625) Infiltrator: A worm or snake like mechanical creature designed for espionage, it can slither inside ventilation ducts ... and simliar large ducts so frecuent in advanced futuristic structures whitout which hideous creatures, and nimble hereos wouldn't survive.
626) A.P: Imagine not only an artificial intelligence, but also that intelligence developing psychic powers like psychokinesis and telepathy, how could would that be. And if this powers were to be affected by the power of the brain itself, and being a compure it would be all like "bip bip, analizing atomic structure" and be super powerful? wouldn't that be awesome?
Отличный комментарий!
