Warhammer 40,000 T'AU EMPIRE: KROOTOX RIDER

Not all Kroot are communal souls, and those that range ahead often prefer the company of nimble Kalamandra beasts to other warriors. Known as Lone-spears, these deadly hunters are expert mobile marksmen, whether sniping targets from afar or hurling explosive-tipped javelins into enemy vehicles.

Older and less impulsive Krootox are used as mobile weapons platforms in battle, where the bond they share with their Krootox Rider is so strong that the gunner can move them into position with barely a gesture. The weapons they mount are the largest carried by Kroot kinbands, and can be fired accurately on the move.
