Fast Attack · CavalryWindridersAeldariWindriders are squadrons of Guardians mounted upon Aeldari jetbikes, the swift outriders of the craftworld host.

Dedicated Transport · VehicleWorld Eaters RhinoWorld EatersThe Rhino is the armoured workhorse of the World Eaters, a battered transport that exists for one purpose: to carry Berzerkers into the heart of the enemy as fast as possible. Draped in trophies and daubed with the blood-marks of Khorne, it is driven with reckless abandon, its crew caring nothing for its survival so long as it delivers its cargo of killers.
Elites · InfantryWorld Eaters TerminatorsWorld EatersWorld Eaters Terminators are veteran killers encased in the massive plates of Tactical Dreadnought armour, trading the headlong speed of their brethren for near-impregnable resilience. Teleporting into the heart of the foe, they grind through firestorms and fortress walls alike to butcher the enemy's finest at close quarters.
Battleline · InfantryWracksDrukhariMasked coven-thralls remade by the Haemonculi into tireless instruments of torture, who chose their own disfigurement in the hope of one day joining their tormentors.

Elites · InfantryWraithguardAeldariTowering constructs of psychoactive wraithbone animated by the souls of the honoured Aeldari dead, roused from their spirit stones to defend the living once more.

Lords of War · MonsterWraithknightAeldariThe Wraithknight is the greatest of the ghost warriors, a titanic wraithbone construct that looms over the battlefield yet moves with the grace of a living thing. Guided by the bonded soul of a living Aeldari, it leaps through shattered cities and levels its arcane cannons at the mightiest of foes. It is the last, desperate strength of a craftworld given monstrous form.
Heavy Support · MonsterWraithlordAeldariA Wraithlord is a towering ghost warrior, a wraithbone giant that houses the soul of a fallen Aeldari hero at its heart. Empty of any living pilot, it strides to war as a vessel for the honoured dead, wielding heavy weapons and rending fists with a strength no living warrior could match. It is a revered guardian, a champion returned from death to shield the craftworld that still remembers him.
Elites · InfantryWulfenSpace MarinesSpace Wolves consumed by the wolf within, the Wulfen are half-man, half-beast berserkers who embody the darkest edge of their Chapter's gene-curse, lost for millennia and returned as an omen of dread.
Troops · InfantryWychesDrukhariWyches are the gladiator-warriors of the Wych Cults, close-combat specialists who dance through gunfire and slay with balletic, savage grace. Lightly armoured and armed with an array of vicious blades and cruel arena weapons, they rely on breathtaking agility and combat drugs to close the distance and butcher their foes. Adored by the crowds of Commorragh and deadly beyond measure, they live for the thrill of the kill and the terror of the doomed.
Heavy Support · VehicleWyvernAstra MilitarumThe Wyvern is a suppression gun on tracks, saturating enemy infantry with airbursting shrapnel shells that scythe down troops cowering behind cover as though they stood in the open.
Heavy Support · BattlesuitXV104 Riptide BattlesuitT'au EmpireThe XV104 Riptide is the largest and most powerful battlesuit in the T'au arsenal, an Earth Caste masterwork raised to counter the deadliest enemies of the Greater Good.

First unleashed at Mu'gulath Bay, it remains a rare and prized war-engine.
Elites · BattlesuitXV95 Ghostkeel BattlesuitT'au EmpireThe XV95 Ghostkeel is the pinnacle of T'au stealth technology, a battlesuit built to strike from the shadows behind enemy lines. Cloaked in overlapping stealth fields cast by its attendant drone, it is all but invisible even in open ground. A terror weapon as much as a killing machine, it is piloted by a lone shas'vre drawn from the veteran ranks of the Stealth Teams.
Fast Attack · Jump InfantryZephyrim SquadAdepta SororitasJump-pack melee angels chosen for their direct communion with the Emperor, cleaving toward the most wicked foes while a Sister bears the Order's sacred banner aloft.
