[[Image:TauOrbital.jpg|thumb|right|Tau Security Orbital<sup>{{Fn|2</sup>}}]]'''Tau Orbitals''' are [[Space Station]]s and orbital craft used by the [[Air Caste]] of the [[Tau Empire]] and allied alien races. Orbitals are vital in linking the small Tau Empire together.<sup>{{Fn|1</sup>}}
==Types of Tau Orbitals==
*'''Security OrbitalOrbitals''': Tau Security Orbitals are used as orbital defense stations for Tau worlds and are heavily armed to deter attacking enemy fleets.*'''WaystationWaystations''': Are are distributed throughout the Tau Empire. They mark out the main routes between Tau [[sept]]s and are used to speed communications between outposts.*'''Nicassar Caravans''': The [[Nicassar]] trading caravans Caravans are large networks of conjoined [[Dhow]]s which the aliens employ when traveling over long distances at their natural leisurely place. Occasionally Caravans will accompany Tau fleets to war, and if attacked a Dhow Caravan may detach to fight in the defense of their community. They are so slow that they are considered practically immobile in space combat.
*[[Air Caste]] [[Orbital City]]: Large orbiting cities where members of the Air Caste are born and mature.
