Tau Barracudas are fighter aircraft with good all-round capability, and they are excellent for clearing up fleeing or broken formations. Their armour is light, so they should stay away from enemy anti-air guns where possible.
Unit Type: Navy
Manta
The Tau Manta is one of the largest known spaceships capable of atmospheric flight. It employs an impressive array of weaponry that will decimate small War Engines in one volley. It also has a large cargo bay with room enough to transport multiple formations of infantry, plus armoured vehicles.
Kill Kroozer
A Kill Kroozer provides the Ork player with an Orbital Bombardment attack. The attack is inconsistent in its power, and the ship has no transport capacity for planetfalling units.
Battlekroozer
The Battlekroozer can carry 12 Ork Landas – enough to mount a huge planetary assault. It also has an Orbital Bombardment attack, which varies in power according to how good your dice are…
Landa
The Ork Landa is a transport aircraft with a large capacity for a variety of units. It has good armour and can sustain a reasonable amount of damage, helping to ensure its payload reaches the intended target.
Fighta Bommer
Fighter Bommers can be deployed in significant number. Large squadrons are able to sustain heavy losses and still make it through to their target.
Wraithship
The Wraithship provides an Eldar player with either an Orbital Bombardment or Pin-point Attack, in addition to allowing Vampire Raiders to assault without fear of being caught in anti-aircraft fire.
Dragonship
The Eldar Dragonship is one of the fastest heavy cruisers that can bring weapons to bear on the Epic game board. Unlike enemy ships in its class it can arrive on any turn, helping to mask the Eldar’s strategy.
Vampire Raider
The Vampire Raider is a fast, well armed transport aircraft that can deliver troops anywhere on the board. Once they have performed any transport duties, they make adequate tank hunters.
Vampire Hunter
The Eldar Vampire Hunter is a sleek aircraft with impressive weaponry. Its Twin Pulsar will reduce most targets to molten slag in an instant.
