Drone Squads have the ability to burrow in the ground, surprising enemies that lack detectors. Call off the Drones, have them block the the Eldar's exit. We are in the process of wiping out the Eldar teleportation tech and are taking their strategic points. They're currently dismantling their means of production. The Drones have turned the Eldar base into a killing field. Shut down their offensive capabilities and lets turn the Northlands into a Tau colony. Shas'o, the Drones are sending notifications: they've located the base. Meanwhile, our Stealthsuits eliminate the Eldar listening posts and take the points for ourselves. I see Taldeer makes a futile flanking attack towards our base. The Drones are cutting them down, Shas'o. Their weapons have a very limited range, but in large numbers, they can overwhelm and disrupt nearly any foe. Infantry don't stand a chance against them, and neither do most vehicles. Our Drones are well-built, solid machines. Mass swarming is not a skill unique to the Orkz. Ah, excellent! Allow me to introduce a decisive tactic of the Tau Empire: Drone Swarms. Their screams can destroy morale, but if that happens to our melee teams, the Tau plasma guns will still melt them. Not too threatening to our Kroot and Vespid auxiliaries. These are Eldar Howling Banshee squads, by the way. Haha, excellent! The tides of battle flow in our favour. Bring forward a Vespid Stingwing detachment. Commander, there are critical locations in the centre of the battlefield. Set up a Vehicle Beacon by that strategic point, and prepare for another attack. The Eldar shall rue the day they chose to confront the Greater Good. The Kroot will ensure they go no further. They've pushed us back into the canyon, Shas'o. Their large numbers can look threatening, but it's like swatting away a handful of ants. They're cheap and can reinforce in large numbers, but are terrible at melee.

Incidentally, these are the Eldar Guardians. Fall back, fall back! Put some distance between her blade and open fire! Shas'o, I got her! I got the Farseer! Excellent shot, but she'll be back before long. Back for more? Uh, Shas'o? Did you think I came alone? You foolish child. If we concentrate our forces here, the enemy won't be able to reach our base without jetpack tech. Aha, they already arrive! There's a choke point at the end of the valley. Scouting, there's a valley that would force the enemy to funnel through our defenses before reaching our base. Our base is secluded upon a hill in the south. We shall go for the Demes Northlands, though if we plan to play a defensive match, we'll want to follow the path of the patient hunter. Night10194 posted: Go for the Northlands!
