In this video, we dive deep into Elemental Council by Noah Van Nguyen — the first Warhammer 40K novel to bring together all five Tau castes in a full-scale rebellion story. Set on the contested world of Cao Quo, this book pits a desperate Tau Sept against the grimdark fury of a lone Raptors Space Marine leading a brutal insurgency.

We’ll break down:

• 00:42 The story’s unique setting and structure

• 04:18 The Elemental Council and what they represent

• 08:07 The Pros and Cons of the book

• 15:44 Whether it’s worth your time as a 40K reader or lore-driven wargame

If you’re a fan of political thrillers, xenos-centric fiction, or looking for a truly unique 40K experience, you don’t want to miss this one.
