The Twin Lance

The Twin Lance is a Characters unit in the T’au Empire faction for Warhammer 40k.

Points: 185 for 2 models.

1 Ri’Lantar, 1 Ri’Locai

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.

Standard kit: Ri’Lantar is equipped with: 1 fusion eliminator; 1 XV pulse pistol; 1 shardstorm burst system; 1 MV15 gun drone. Ri’Locai is equipped with: 1 ion scattercannon; 1 XV pulse pistol; 1 shardstorm burst system; 1 MV15 gun drone.
