None of the [[Tau]] players took this seriously, a scoffing not entirely undeserved when you consider the Toxicrene is footslogging while [[Riptide]]s are faster with [[jet pack]]s and have easy ways to ignore cover. That said, if it DID get in contact with an enemy Monstrous Creature or tough units like Terminator squads, especially those running with [[Apothecaries]]/[[Sanguinary Guard]] it would be able to deal some pain, making this a [[DISTRACTION CARNIFEX]] at worst. Nowadays its use has been reversed: while it used to be effective against units with high toughness and armor but less so against vehicles, it's now effective against non-elite units and medium vehicles but less so against enemies with 2+ saves.

	On the tabletop the Toxicrene is an odd but potent beast. With 12 wounds, T7 and a 3+ save it can hold its own for a while, but because of its close-ranged nature it has to get in a fight quick. All attacks with its tentacles are S User, AP-2, D3 damage and can re-roll failed to wound rolls. Paired with its high strength and ~~average~~ WS ~~means that a Toxicrene will not hit all that much~~, ~~but when it hits~~ the ~~thing stays hit. This makes a~~ Toxicrene a non-ignorable threat to ~~vehicles, especially when it also swings its tentacles for a ranged attack~~. On top of all that it also gets to launch poisonous spores for a D6 S3 AP0 D3 damage attack that ignores cover, it can deal a Mortal Wound on a 6 if it gets wounded in close combat or just by being within 1" of an enemy model (and this goes for EVERY enemy within 1") and it flips it shit if it dies and you roll a 6. If you can get it close it can deal quite a bit of damage, but beware [[tarpit]]s and enemies with high armor saves because they will ruin your day. Don't make it do jobs it's not fit for: let [[Exocrine]]s and [[Tyrannofex]]es fight at a distance while [[Carnifex]]es deal with the heavier targets.

All melee attacks with its tentacles are S User, AP-2, D3 damage and can re-roll failed to wound rolls; the tentacles can also be used to make a shooting attack with a similar profile at up to 8".
