I've had these guys for quite a while and just got around to finishing them. While I'm not a big fan of most of the kroot rules, I actually really like the Krootox riders Kroot Packmates ability. I can't wait to return fire with a 3 man squad of these guys. I hope this edition GW gives the kroot more synergy with the Tau and vice versa. For me, the Tau are all about synergy, and having a large portion of your models only synergizes with the rest of your army when you're using a single (recently nerfed) detachment really makes me hesitate to run kroot. Curious to hear what other people want from Kroot this edition.

Recently finished this fully magnetized Lonespear. Used some extra kroot bits to swap out there hand and then made the two main weapons holstered. Haven't seen anyone magnetize them this way so I hope it can help anyone wanting to do the same. I've historically struggled to run kroot so any advice on how to use them in game would be appreciated.

I kitbashed these kroot using some spare Tau/imperium parts and I'm really happy with how they turned out. From a model standpoint, I feel like Tau players have been spoiled this edition. It's insane we got a whole kroot range refresh, new vespid, new stealth suits, and a new kick ass new epic hero. While I wouldn't mind getting more kroot in the next edition, my main wish is that we get a new model for commander Longstrike (my beloved). He was the first epic hero character I ever ran and I was really sad to see him be removed this edition. I'd love to hear what other people are hoping for.

Recently finished these kroot rampagers. To be honest when these guys were first announced I didn't really find them that interesting, but after painting them up I'm really excited to use them in a game. Do you guys have any advice on how to run them? I typically run Tau centered detachments like Mont'ka or Kauyon. I have another unit of these guys and I'm curious if people tend to run them as a 6 man blob or if it's better to do 2-3 man squads.
