For the greater good: The new playable faction, the T’au, joins the fight in Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector.
The T’au are the latest faction to enter the battlefield in the popular turn-based strategy title Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector from Slitherine and Black Lab Games.
The technologically advanced faction has arrived to spread greater good across the galaxy with 14 new units playable in the game’s dynamic campaigns, skirmishes and multiplayer.
