Hey everyone, this is Richard Siegler, and I am here to talk about the new T'au rules and how the faction is well-positioned to fit into the new 2020 meta.

Psychic Awakening: For the Greater Good has finally arrived. The T'au Empire has received some new and useful tools, including custom Septs, prototype weapon systems, stratagems, updated Shadowsun, The Eight datasheets, and new rules for Farsight Enclaves detachments. These are welcome changes because T'au has found it challenging to compete with the top tier lists since the release of Faith and Fury and the Iron Hands and Imperial Fists supplements.

For much of 2019, I had successfully competed in the ever-changing 40k meta with my T'au list revolving around three Riptides, three commanders, and at least 40 shield drones. I won the NOVA Open, Warzone Atlanta, and the Atlanta Open in the span of a few months using the supreme durability of the list to dominate the mid-board against most factions and survive with much of my firepower intact for six turns. This style was even successful after the release of the Space Marine Codex. I was able to match the durability of Nick Nanavati's Iron Hands brigade and largely ignore the power of devastator doctrine, with most of my units having good invulnerable saves.
