Tau Commander in an XV86 Coldstar Battlesuit which is a highly versatile variant of the XV85 Enforcer. It is made for Tau Commanders, the XV86 is covered in fins that streamline it, allowing super-fast movement across the battlefield, and annihilating enemies with a deadly array of weapons. The on-board Holophoton Countermeasures and telemetry suites feed the Coldstar and its Commander pilot a massive variety of information that would overwhelm most lesser minds, in this case, it allows the Coldstar Battlesuit to soar over its foes with a grace that enemy targeting systems cannot hope to catch and lock target on.

The T'au TY7 Devilfish armored troop carrier is the primary anti-gravitic transport deployed by Tau. A resilient and versatile transport. It is mainly used to transport ground forces and can carry twelve Fire Warriors or specialist Pathfinders into combat in relative safety, and then provide deadly mobile fire support once they disembark. These ubiquitous transports are exceptionally popular with the Fire Caste, and their courageous pilots are offered great respect.

The XV104 Riptide Battlesuit it is designed to combat the most dangerous enemies of the T'au Empire. A Riptide is a massive engine of war, its long, back-jointed legs hold up a heavily armoured torso that houses the Riptide’s dark matter nova reactor, an experimental power generator that can be activated should the shas'vre pilot require extra power to sustain his heavy rate of fire. The XV104 carries a sleek Riptide Shield Generator on one arm and a Heavy Burst Cannon. To provide manoeuvrability, the XV104 Riptide Battlesuit is also equipped with a large Jetpack that juts out from its shoulder blades. On the battlefield, a Riptide can jet quickly to plug gaps in T'au lines and give covering fire for its colleagues whilst shielding its allies with its armoured bulk.
