COMBAT PATROL: KROOT

COMBAT PATROL: KROOT 

The Kroot serve alongside the T’au Empire as fierce hunters and trackers, often operating far ahead of the main battle lines. These adaptable warriors rely on a mixture of traditional hunting techniques and advanced technology, bringing brutal melee strength and savage resilience to the battlefield. Kroot hunting parties include a wide variety of creatures, from swift Kroot Hounds to the powerful Krootox beasts that smash through enemy lines.

Background

This Combat Patrol set assembles a fast-moving Kroot hunting force for Warhammer 40,000. Leading the warband is a Kroot Lone-spear mounted atop a Kalamandra, directing the hunt while striking down enemies with deadly precision. A unit of Krootox Rampagers charges into the thick of battle as powerful melee line-breakers, while the Farstalker Kinband forms the backbone of the force with versatile ranged and close-combat options. Supporting them is a Krootox Rider equipped with heavy weaponry to provide additional firepower.
