Kroot Trail Shapers are more than simply masters of fieldcraft – through sheer skill, they shape the very battlefield upon which the Kroot will meet their prey, defining the guiding routes along which the hunt will progress and the nature of the engagements in which their kindreds will fight. A single Trail Shaper can alter the entire character of a war in the favour of the T'au Empire.

This multipart plastic kit builds a Kroot Trail Shaper, an experienced scouting leader for the Kroot forces employed by the T'au Empire. Draped in a hunter's shawl and hood, with their finely-made Kroot rifle ready to reload and a vicious Shaper's blade hooked at their belt, the Trail Shaper marks out fresh routes and targets for the kindred to pursue. Through their wisdom, Kroot warriors can engage enemies from advantageous vectors and shift the course of battle.
