''Mathis slid on his belly across the surface of a rock, gently crawling forward on the tips of his fingers and toes. A rifle was cradled underneath his belly, and held in place with elbows. With the full cover of his cloak, the sniper probably looked more akin to a bush than a six foot, one inch tall human. Mathis scanned the battlefield going on below, from his perch inside of a cliff facing. To his sides, five of his brothers in arms were setting up the scopes for their rifles.''

''The Squad leader quietly rubbed sand directly into the lense of his scope, then unzipped a freezer-bag full of crushed ice, to place directly in his mouth. With his rituals complete, Mathis scanned the battlefield for his Quarry, and surely enough the space marine commander was engaged with a crisis team. Several Valkyrie's Marks were held in place on his armor by forward spotters, which he pointed his uplink towards to gain targeting data.''

''"On my mark-.." Mathis mouthed through his numb tongue into the cool night air, and with the ice in his mouth not a single breath could be seen. He tapped his toes into the sand, once, twice.. And thrice as all six rifles kicked in unison. The heaviest of the rifles made the most noise as their plasma bolts split the air, and thunder responded as it rushed back into the brief void. Their quarry looked surprised for a moment, as if the unthinkable happened. His Arm had been vaporized at the shoulder, with only a sliver of metal still holding the rest to his body, and a krak-grenade sized hole was present in his lower torso.''

''Mathis stood and signaled his squad to get moving, when he noticed a splattering of blood on his legs. Jonas; the sniper beside him, was bisected from his forehead to crotch by a still-burning slug embedded in the cliff-wall. He had just enough time to shout out "COUNTER SNIPERS!" before his leg was vaporized from the kneecap down.''

While the Fire Warrior caste prefers more mobile warfare. Some Tau commanders have started to use Gue'Vesa in a sniper role. Infiltrating the battlefield days before the battle, these men wait for the shots that can change the course of the battle. Equipped with Longshot Pulse Rifles normally equipped on sniper drones, they can take out most of the commanders that the Tau face, for the heavier foes the Sniper Teams sometimes will be issued Tau Rail Rifles.
