Upstart and full of vigour, the Tau Empire unleashes its young fleet upon the Gothic Sector. Available end of September, current Battlefleet Gothic: Armada owners can opt in to join the Tau Beta from September 8 onwards.

Free to all Early Adopters of the game who got their hands on Battlefleet Gothic: Armada before the 21st of July 2016, the new race will open up a new playstyle. Technologically advanced and fighting for the Greater Good, whatever that might be, Tau ships will excel at range, keeping their distance from the lumbering vessels of the Imperium of Man or Chaos. That’s a good thing too as Tau don’t really do well when it comes to repelling a determined boarding action.


Official Press Release

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada, Tindalos Interactive’s RTS videogame adaptation of Games Workshop’s classic tabletop game, unveils the upcoming Tau Empire fleet with exclusive images! The Tau Empire fleet will be available end of September, and will be playable in Battlefleet Gothic’s multiplayer modes. In the meantime, all Battlefleet Gothic: Armada owners are invited to join the Tau Beta that starts tomorrow – September 8.

As announced several months ago, the Tau Empire faction will be free to all Early Adopters of the game on Steam. The Early Adopter offer applies to all Steam pre-purchase owners, as well as those who bought the game on Steam during the first two months following the game’s release (before June 21, 2016). Players who purchased Battlefleet Gothic: Armada after June 21 will be able to purchase the Tau Empire as DLC later this September.

The alien Tau Empire has rapidly expanded across the galaxy, aided by highly advanced technology and a total dedication to the Greater Good philosophy. Their fleets excel at long range, with powerful weapons dealing massive amounts of damage from afar. Skilled Tau admirals can eliminate the bulk of an enemy fleet before they can even get within boarding distance. The Tau have access to a wide array of upgrades and traits to improve their Torpedoes and Ordnances even further.

The Tau Empire DLC releases later this September on Steam and is free for all Early Adopters.
All players who own the game can join the Tau Beta that starts tomorrow September 8.
