    I always thought the Tau were a fun race, because they're are two ways to accept them mentally.
    Either they're a secretive dictatorship that manipulates their followers into following the Greater Good, keeping with the Grimdark of 40k.
    Or they're just a bunch of naive potshot takers that wind up in the most hilarious messes because they're the only friendly race in the galaxy.
    I love both of those interpretations.

      ***** I love the idea of the secretive dictatorship being their small core of Ethereal cocknuggets while the entire rest of the Tau is almost completely comprised of those foolish friendly sniper battalions that think we can all get along if we just believe.
      On that note, please, you fucks couldn't cooperate with each other without intense mind control, Orkz have self conflict as a way of life, Eldar all probably have knives over each other's backs, Chaos tends to have to be specifically formed as Chaos Undivided to not slaughter each other in droves and humans are the most legendary "fuck thy neighbor" species in recorded history.

    I'm surprised the funny story about the Tau was not about the time they threw a party for the Necrons who saved the Tau from the Tyranids. I can imagine the Ethereal was like "Oh you guys are pretty sick, heres a big party for you, and while youre at it maybe you wanna join the Greater Good?" and the Necrons just shift awkwardly in place before turning all the Tau into dust.

    What if the actions of the Tau are all part of an elaborate scheme?
    -Tau avoid melee, causing rage.
    -Tau avoid being too grimdark, causing more rage.
    -Tau use infuriating tactics in combat, causing even more rage.
    -Tau deliberately keep their empire small, so they don't seem like a threat.
    -Other armies hate the Tau, but can't attack them because they're too busy fighting each other.
    -More rage.
    -Wars become even more brutal because of Tau rage, Khorne grows in power.
    -Tau keep doing Tau things, other factions still too busy fighting each other.
    -More rage.
    -Other factions destroy each other in Tau induced fury.
    -Khorne becomes superKhorne and kills all the other gods.
    -Khorne has an explosive orgasm because of this.
    -Khorne realises he did something worthy of Slaanesh and kills himself.
    -No Gods.
    -No Imperium.
    -No other Xenos.
    -Tau inherit galaxy.
    -Everyone gets mad and quits 40k.
    -Tau invade Warhammer Fantasy.

      ​@@Hippo_Hegemonyit *is* stated in the lore that Puretide did teach his pupils how to use a blade.
      And all Tau Fire Warriors come with a combat knife, including those in battlesuits, as seen in the Farsight books, with Farsight even managing to critically injure an Ork Warboss with one before the suit he ejected from crushed said Warboss, killing the ork.
      But these combat knives are akin to the modern day combat knives, and are a weapon more of last resort than anything, so they are very rarely ever used.

The Necrons attend the party and celebrate the only way they know how: killing fucking everyone.I'm surprised they didn't see betrayal coming from a race of fucking robot space skeletons.

The other players would rush their tyranids/space marines/eldar and laugh at me, and when I needed 6s to hit, my dice would always roll 6s and also 6s to wound. So my tau would always miss their shots but beat the crap out of whoever rushed them!

      +Commissar_Dan The modern Solar Auxilia has much of the same fantastic equipment it rocked in the Great Crusade, but like a great many other things including the Adeptus Custodes, a significant portion of the Grey Knights, Battlefleet Solar, the Emperor's own flagship, the true measure of AdMech's technological prowess, more Titans than you can likely count, and who knows what else, they are being held in reserve in the event of an assault upon Holy Terra itself. Failbaddon has no idea what he's gotten himself into with the Fall of Cadia, and the objective that now faces him - for comparing the defenses of Cadia to those of the M41 Sol System is like comparing a flimsly log cabin with two guys with slingshots defending it to a militarized Hive City in its prime.

      I think Catstode-kun and Shadowsun had a relationship once over Spacebook. Of course it went well and Catstode-kun had a body pillow made of her but sometime later, Shadowsun got creeped out by Catsode-kun's devotion to her so she broke up with him and blocked him. This would be why Catsode-kun is so mad about the Tau despite him wanting Shadowsun and keeping his body pillow of her for him to cry on. That or ThunderPsyker genuinely hates the Tau which would make it all the more funny if Alfabusa genuinely intends on pairing them up.

      I've played Tau since I started playing back in...2006? and I honestly think they're still a pretty weak army, even with Riptides (unless you cheese three of them, or four as Enclaves). I personally think the whole concept is gimped by BS3 across the board; for an army so utterly reliant on shooting, at least the ultra-advanced, AI-assisted battlesuits should be BS4. They can't blob like guard, nor can they mech like guard. I still mainly run SM because they will never, EVER, be weak, like the poster boys they are.
