Mont'ka (The Killing Blow) is one of the two major military doctrines of the Tau Empire, the other being Kauyon.[1]

The Mont'ka is a carefully planned attack designed to wipe out critical enemy defenses or units in single, well-placed strikes. Once the strongest points of enemy resistance are crushed, the remainder of the force can generally be finished off more easily. Pathfinder Team or Ghostkeel make the final decision to launch a Mont’ka. After the beginning of the Mont’ka, the enemy must receive massive damage, or else the Tau forces will be called back – a Commander will withdraw to strike from another side rather than waste lives of the warriors.[1]
