Drone Control Systems
(Rule)Description: The four Drones start the game attached to the platform. They cannot perform any actions or be attacked while they remain attached. If the platform is occupied by any model with the Tau Empire Faction, then the Drones can be activated at the start of the occupying model's Movement Phase. When activated, the Drones immediately detach themselves from the platform in the same manner as Drones detaching from a vehicle (see Codex: Tau Empire). They are treated as part of the army that activated them for the rest of the battle, even if their platform is later abandoned.
