i was just wondering how many drones cause there is a drone controller and a thingy drone controller so does that mean i can take 4 drones
Are you talking about Tau? What context if so? Who, if not?i was just wondering how many drones cause there is a drone controller and a thingy drone controller so does that mean i can take 4 drones
- I've always wondered about this. On the weekend I played against Tau. My warboss was in hand to hand with a Shas'ui with two drones. He took two wounds and removed both drones. My Warboss only took one wound and as a result the Shas'ui was forces to retreat. Now the codex says that srones are counted for shooting moral checks having taken 25% casualties. However there is nothing specifically mentioning they are counted when determining if a units is below 50% and ineligable to regroup. I would expect that the suit could regroup and I read the rules this way, am I right. Otherwise I really can't see the point of taking two drones! as Jaws said.Never have the drones outnumber the suits
Each drone is a kill point if I remember correctly too.- I've always wondered about this. On the weekend I played against Tau. My warboss was in hand to hand with a Shas'ui with two drones.

Page 31 of codex: Tau Empire.- I've always wondered about this. On the weekend I played against Tau. My warboss was in hand to hand with a Shas'ui with two drones.

So my reading is that if I get the victory points for putting you below 50% then that same less than 50% stops you from regrouping.Drones are counted for determining if it is below 50% for victory point purposes
Yes page 31. that's what I'm looking at, it's the ... for victory point purposes. It doesn't say for regrouping purposes. So bad luck at the end of the game when you are talling up the victory points, but the way I read it is that you won't have the problem regrouping.Drones are counted for determining if it is below 50% for victory point purposes
