But ,son, do me a favor: if by chance that day comes, come to my grave, lay a flower on it, and say that it's a beautiful day. That way, I'll know you were right.'

      The funny part is, if you dig around 1d4chan there's actually a noblebright take on Warhammer in their archives... and the Tau, despite having nothing done to them, ARE the darkest faction, not counting the nonhuman monsters that always were true neutral like the tyranids.

    • @alecshockowitz8385
      @alecshockowitz8385 6 лет назад +239

      Yeah seriously the Tau have some fundamental problems.
      Humans before the repeated apocalypses and other issues before Slaanesh's birth traded and were seemingly very friendly with many different types of Aliens, of course varying by which group in question. One of the groups of humans, the Interex in the Great Crusade had managed to secure multiple alliances and gave full rights to aliens within their Empire.
      The Tau on the other hand just had some tribal warfare on their homeworld, with no technological progress, suddenly they got all united and ventured into the stars. Immediately they subjugated and attacked other groups of aliens, conquering them or at least making the lesser species in their empire have fewer rights.
      Tau in particular treat humans poorly, commonly forcing many of them into combat, and using chemicals to make humans infertile in order to reduce or wipe out conquered human populations at large.

While the pirhannas could reasonably kill the whale, the whale can crush them with sheer size, and survives by sheer virtue of its size and girth, barely noticing the small fangs. Granted, as the Time of Ending starts, some sharks have entered the ocean, but now the whale is getting real teeth.

    "Ordo Exterminatus... This order is rarely given, and only as a last resort."
    Well... "rarely", going by Imperial standards. :|
    When you're at war with 17461 planets, and you have to blow up a couple dozen in a few decades time because there's only so much you can solve by flooding a planet with Astra Militarae, the Imperium can't really be bothered to care.
    Hell, there have been cases of entire Imperial Sub-Sectors being declared Exterminatae without the Imperium finding out for several hundred years, and even then it's because the planets stopped paying tribute, because the Imperium couldn't give less of a shit about the actual _well being_ of these planets...
    It's usually only after three to four hundred years before the Imperium starts to wonder: "Hm... This sub-sector has not paid us tribute for a few centuries. Wonder what's going on..."
    Imperial bureaucracy: _"We know, at any given moment in time, exactly how many planets we controlled five thousand years ago..."_
    That kind of bureaucracy is the only reason the Tau still live.
    The imperium simply can't be _bothered_ to fight them off.
    The Tau take a few planets in a century and call it a success, that is, of course, until the Imperium sends over a Astra Militarum war-fleet to "check up on the planet's status.", and essentially drive the local Xenos infestation to extinction.
    And the Tau were absolutely terrified of the Imperium when they first met them.
    Mostly because they had no idea what was out there.
    ... And yes, at one point they thought the Imperium was the worst the galaxy had to offer.
    Then they met the Tyranids, after which they realised that maybe they should just keep to themselves.
    There have also been cases of Orcs invading Imperial worlds.
    These cases usually either involve a LOT of fire, or...
    Well, let's just say that if you've got an entire planet infested with Orcs, it's usually easier to take the planet out of the equation than the Orcs.
    Basically, in any normal universe, like Star Wars, destroying a planet is a galaxy wide event.

    • @Donnerbalken28

      Exterminatus is in fact rarely given. Wasting resources of the Imperium is considered treason and many over-zealous Inquisitors were punished for using it as a comfortable solution to their problems.
      This is also the reason why constant warfronts like Cadia and especially Armageddon haven't been destroyed.

      Mon Cala
      This isn't counting flat out genocide aimed at eradicating or pacifying native species while keeping the planet and it's ecosystem intact.
      Gotta remember the Empire at least in the EU had around a million member worlds so they could defiantly spare a few to destroy and they didn't hesitate to do it.

      @@thefacelessone5591 The funny part about the Tau's place in the galaxy is that half the time they have never fought the major brunt of many warzones. Minus the Damocles crusades, they never seemed to have fought the 'major' fragment of any enemy they have ever engaged, such as certain Ork Waaaghs or Tyranid hivefleets. Their only Amregeddon-tier invasion was the first Damocles Crusade, and the Imperium only let the off because the First Tyrannic War was starting to get to a point where it couldn't be ignored anymore.

    Although everyone always considers the Imperium of Man incredibly violent and warlike, note that it is described to have 'countless trillions' of people, and 'countless millions' of guardsmen. That means only about 1 in a million men is in the guard, the largest part of the military. That would be like if the USA had a military of about 300 to 400 men. So even though on a galactic scale the imperium is constantly fighting for survival, for most people the war is actually far away, with only a few people serving even in a huge metropolis. However those huge peaceful populations on safe planets just are not as interesting...

      Dude I know! I loved Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek, Star Wars, etc, etc,...But my God WK 40K is as badass as badassery can get.

      I think the Imperium is kinda stupid and too far fetched personally idk, not the fan personally. I guess I just prefer more realistic fiction.

      @@eruno_ lol a lot of war hammer 40k fanboys will go mad at you
      The only two sci fi lore that stand up for me personally is Halo and Warhammer 40k buy you are right 40k lore is confusing and expansive that it cannot hold itself that's why its not so popular in the mainstream media

    As a long-time fan of 40k - in all its forms - let me tell you that this video is absolutely stunning. It's accurate, concise, and covers absolutely everything a newcomer might want to know.
    Bravo!

    The Imperium of Man is an great example of a fallen empire in stellaris, but is the only one maintaining it tight grip after several millenia.
