Editing Taros Campaign (section)

==The March to Tarokeen==

The initial day was met with no resistance. The men marched a full 20 Kilometers before resting for the day. However, the seemingly absent T'au were at work.

Shas'o R'ymr (The one model that is his own sept) ordered his [[Pathfinder Team]]s and Stealthsuits to observe the enemy, and wait for the ideal time to strike. However, they largely attempted to avoid the Imperial Guard forces until an engagement at an abandoned mining facility, which basically shaped the rest of the Campaign. T'au Pathfinders hid themselves and marked enemy armor that approached. Then, [[Skyray Missile Gunship|Skyrays]] and Hammerheads would surge forward and attack them. Infantry would be engaged by [[Devilfish]] supported Fire Warriors, who would then retreat once the guard brought forth heavier weapons like mortars or Heavy Bolters. They would then withdraw as [[Basilisk_Artillery_Gun|Basilisk]] fire tears up the area, and repeat day in and out on multiple fronts, largely slowing the advance.

De Stael responded by calling on the Imperial Navy fighters to get off their lazy asses and move their aircraft to try and engage these rapidly deploying aliens. The T'au responded in kind, using their Aircraft to counter the Imperial Aircraft. [[Aeronautica Imperialis|The Air War for Taros had begun, and would prove to be one of the deciding factors in the battle]].

The war continued on many fronts, from [[Kroot]] ambushes to direct contact with T'au forces on some occasions.
