    If only the Tau used the Geologie Morning protection cream and face wash, maybe their women wouldn't be so fugly - coulda avoided alot of conflicts me thinks Don't be a tau, use Geologie : thld.co/geologie_major50_0722
  • The Water Caste: "Titans are propaganda by simple-minded Gue'La sources." The Fire Caste: "Why is the simple-minded propaganda obliterating entire armies?"
  • @NornQueenKya
    "But sir I don't understand, they just keep throwing lives at our lasers" Poor tau didn't realize the imperium has endless Zapp Brannigans running their armies
  • During the Damocles Crusade, the Imperium asked the Tau how is their health plan. Apparently it was great.
  • @Patterrz
    The Tau forgot the Rule of Cool, massive Titan machines are epic, therefore they win
  • @mottzilla2
    I really would love to see Gulliman talk with the Tau.
  • @BrotherCarver
    Tau: Titan's aren't be real, they can't hurt us Imperial Titans: Haha, war horn goes WOOOMP
  • I love his summaries of tau v Imperium clashes. Imperials achieve victory by using weapons and tactics so ridiculous the tau could not even dream of how to deal with it
  • @MsPuffykinz
    Ah yes an American Australian. A crossover I didn’t know I needed.
  • @yamahadrag69
    So they're basically in the same boat as the Dark Eldar: A tiny population in a small, heavily fortified area that's not worth the time and resources it would take to crack open.
  • @mtrunkello
    Its important to note that the standard plasma rifle for battlesuits were able to punch a hole clean through space marine armor from the front and come out at the back. The conflict must have been as horrifiing for space marines as it were for the tau.
  • @stangerr0267
    I think it's important to note that during this conflict, the Tau did not have things such as Riptides, Ghostkeels, Stormsurges, Taunars, and other more advanced suits that they now have. Not to even mentioned that the Tau navy at this time was just a merchant fleet. They completely overhauled their navy afterwards
  • I enjoyed seeing the Imperium and the Tau working together in the Ciaphas Caine series. Always neat seeing the Imperium going against the “haha murder murder planet go boom” stereotype and actually doing some diplomacy.
  • We all know why the crusade really started. Because Kitten needed to keep the secret dead.
  • @MR.LMR1996
    Sure, the Tau may not have the might or the means to traverse across the Galaxy as fast and wide as the Imperium, Eldar Craft Worlds or Ork Warbands can, but they can sure as hell put up a fight to defend the territory they already own.
  • Tau: Who in their right mind has broadside cannons!? Also Tau: Who in their right mind would build giant ass robots!? Imperium: raises hands.
  • Something no one talks about is that the appearance of the Ethereals is very similar to the appearance of the Emperor of Mankind. In a time of peril a wise, powerful entity suddenly wonders out of no where with all the answers and almost assumes command of the entire species before setting out to expand into other solar systems. But instead of it being one massive god-entity they are dozens or hundreds of individuals who are still above the generic tau but aren’t able to do shit like punch chaos gods with their brains. I do wonder if the tau have etherals and humans have the Emperor because the Humans have fairly standard sized souls while the tau have mini-souls.
  • Honestly I can see Guiliman just going to them and officially making them allies because they’re honestly more useful that way.
