Kauyon Command Post

The Kauyon Command Post guides the Tau in the ways of the "patient hunter". The structure allows you to requisition both Kroot Hounds and Krootox, research more advance upgrades for your units, and build a Coalition Center. Once built, you are prohibited from building a Mont'ka Command Post.

Tactics

The Kauyon Command post allows the production of Krootoxen, which are difficult for enemy players to deal with due to having Monster Med armor. Also, the Kauyon Command Post enables the research of Improved Metallurgy and Targeting Optics from the Path to Enlightenment, which improves nearly every Tau combat unit. Kroot Hound Packs, also only accessible if the path of Kauyon is chosen, are used similar to Kroot Carnivores, but due to their higher armor and health are more likely to survive a battle (though they cannot be upgraded through cannibalism and lack a ranged attack). To summarize, this command post is best used if you feel you need some heavy melee attackers to put between the enemy and your ranged attackers.
