@@nurgleschosen8145 Well, the Tau are also just a different shade of evil. They basically stay friendly till you refuse to agree upon their offer. Foreigners, which refuse to merge their civilisation into the Tau Empire are simply conquered by military force and as a Tau citizen, if you don't do what is expected from you, they simply keep on making your life shittier step by step till they finally execute you and check your brain in hopes of finding what exactly made you being such a little rebellious shit. The problem I (and most others) have with them is just that it's not very credible what they are capable of doing. In terms of military size, speed and firepower the Tau would be no danger at all, but yet they are. I mean, just look at the story in the video here. They get gangraped by a single chaos legion, the Imperium of Man fights off 9 of those legions since over 10k years, AND their demons, AND a whole bunch of other xenos which are a lot more powerful than the Tau are. Yet still the Imperium of Man is loosing ground the the Tau Empire? I mean, seriously, the Imperium has assembled two powerful crusades to skullfuck the Tau and they failed both times. There's no way in hell an Empire so small such as the Tau's could compete with something so big like the Imperium of Man in terms of replenishment of their forces.

"You may have met a space marine chapter before Shadowsun, but you've never met a Legion." I can honestly see any of the chaos/traitor legions saying that. Also, imagine if Mortarion decides to join to vent his frustration. I imagine it would go something like this… Shadowsun looked on as the horrifying abominations advancing towards her. For all the firepower they had, all the hits they took they would not stop moving. As if they were immune to damage. ‘What are these things’ she wondered to herself, ‘These tainted Gue’vesa?’ She would not get to ponder for long. For then a voice rang out… “XENOS!” All attention was turned to where the voice came from. And what they all saw stunned every Tau fighter present. It was a Gue’vesa. On of the tainted ones, but much more than that. It was enormous. At least 20 feet tall, with moth like wings, a torn cloak, massive scythe, clad in the green rustic infected style armor as the rest and, like many Gue’vesa, wore no head protection of any kind. It was reminiscent of the Astarte chapter master that the empire killed in the Damocles Gulf war. But the comparison didn’t do the being justice. It was as more that chapter master was to this being what a normal Astarte, or even basic Gue’vesa, was to a chapter master. In fact, in perhaps a in an ironic twist of both fate and history repeating, had it not been tainted and mutated she would have assumed that such a person could only be the Emperor the Imperials go on and on about. Just like with the Chapter Master all those years ago. But then the being spoken once more… “I am Mortarion! Primarch of the Death Guard, Champion of Nurgle, Lord of the 14th legion, and Son of the Emperor.” That last part caught Shadowsun’s attention. *Son* of the emperor? If this is his son, what was he like? “Rejoice, for your suffering and misery has come to a blissful end. For I spread upon you the gifts of the unholy grandfather himself.” As he spoke green mist spread out from his being and onto the closest front line combatants. They screamed in agony and pain all the while physically melting and turning to literal mush of meat and bones. Never in all her years had the commander see such a horror. “Do not cry” the gaint continued, “You not dying, it is merely the consequence of rejecting the Plague father’s embrace. Embrace Nurgle, join our family, embrace his love, accept his gifts, and Ypu will know no pain. No more suffering, no more loneliness, no more death. Only euphoria, acceptance, love, peace, and happiness. For Poppa Nurgle loves us all for who we are, and all you need to do is love him back and you too be part of a world of truly pure perfection.” Shadowsun was no fool. This “Mortarion” was a liar. His words may be honeyed and sweet, but his actions showed the truth. He was no herald of a benevolent god, but a reaper of souls. Shadowsun looked at her troops and saw a horrifying sight as some began to mutate into a similar forms as the invaders. They were weak willed and sought the easy way out. Turning their backs on the Greater Good. But to the Tau commander there was only one choice to make. Calmly, she rose her arm, aim her cannon at the Tainted Gue’vesa leader, and fired at him. "Never" she yelled, 'I will *never* lower myself! I am Shadowsun and I serve only the Greater Good!" The shot hit him square in the upper chest. And didn’t even register as a speed bump. “So you have chosen death” the one called Mortarion replied. “We offered you friendship and you spit in your face. Well then, let me enlighten you as to what happens to those who reject Nurgles gifts.” “I have faced your kind before, Human” Shadowsun said in Gothic. “I know how to face Astartes.” Mortarion just laughed. "You may have met a space marine chapter before Shadowsun” he said gleefully, “but you've never met a Legion."

To be fair though, Pulse Rifles are pretty OP for a basic infantry weapon on the tabletop. They outperform weapons I'd argue are even more advanced and sophisticated in lore like Gauss Flayers and shuriken catapults. Though I'd guess that probably isn't the case in lore (kinda like how catapults had their range cut from bolter level, because a codex writer wanted them to function like SMGs). What the Tau also don't seem to know, is that their average tech level is a lot higher than the Imperium. But their tech ceiling is also significantly lower than the Imperium's.

Wouldn't negotiation with Robute have a reasonable chance of success? The dude goes around with an Eldar at his side, and is generally very pragmatic about his attempts to hold the Imperium together and stop it shitting itself to death. Far as I see it, the last thing Guliman would be interested in doing is going to fight the Tau for no reason. Small as they are, they're not push overs and have a history of inflicting unexpectedly high losses on Imperium forces that have faced them. Meanwhile the Tau pose incredibly little active threat to the Imperium as a whole. They're easy to ignore yet also far too costly to fight. It's kinda like if you played an RTS free for all, and the Tau were this small but deadly NPC faction that doesn't leave it's base. Any player could go crush them with a modest investment of effort, but it'd cause them to loose the game to their actual rivals whilst gaining nothing. For every Tau world the Imperium would conquer, they'd lose 3 more to other foes that they should have been defending against. I'm pretty sure Robute would far rather leave the Tau to their own business, and spend his desperately strained forces on fighting chaos.

@@kingbaldwiniv5409 Its the same concept why the Emperor does not believe in gods. He does not consider the chaos gods as "gods". To him they are just super old and super powerful empyreans. To give them name like gods only strengthen them. This entity that helped the 4th sphere was created by Humans that are allied with the Tau. Though it is philosophy humanity worshipped it like an entity. That is how this being was born, same as how the Ecchlesiarchu creates their saints (those angel like beings that you see in Dawn of War) The humans who follow the greater good worship this entity as a god. Soon enough it will grow powerful. Chaos does not consist the entirety of the warp. In the warm many Empyreans live within it. Only that they are in hiding because of the Dark Pantheon. The Eldar Gods are considered Empyreans which were born in the warp.

"How has no one made a 40k film yet" - Well for a start they have, just not about this. If you mean a game of throne'esque sort of thing, yeah good question. I figure its partly to do with how horrible most mainstream 40k video games have been. I mean lets be fair, some might have sold okay, but they always fail to do the lore justice, to tell a good story and indeed do something interesting which is Entirely possible in a grimdark, immersive kind of way. There is enough material out there, for years and years of story telling ... its not even "pew pew" all the time, loads of intrigue, mysteries, politics, ceremonies, industry (LOADS of industry..EPIC amounts of industry), cults, research, exploration (Holy shit the exploration) and uncovering lost artefacts (my god what artefacts). Its not even an overstatement and I'm sure you know this. To do anything, properly, with this franchise in movie terms, you need someone who cares more about telling a story than constant action (though not opposed to action). Someone like Paul William Scott Anderson, who directed Event Horizon...and team him up with the original screenwriter too after giving him the material to reference. Then maybe you'd have a shot.

They'll likely always remain a punching bag, in a deliberate effort to prevent them ever growing too large. With how their forces aren't restrained by limited and irreplaceable geneseed/relics/archotech, if they ever gained too much resources and industrial base, then things would get really skewed surprisingly fast. It'd be like playing a match of Dawn of War where you initially start big and ignore the Tau because everyone else is beating on you. Except the Tau don't need relic points and have no cap, and are able to field stupid amounts of fire warriors whilst you're stuck with 30 unit cap of Space Marines. Every time you lose a space marine behind enemy lines you permanently lose unit cap. And if you lose your titan, you never get it back. You start at tech level 3 from the start, but the Tau can tech up to tier 5 whilst you can't. Any RTS player would tell you in a heart beat that there's only one way to win that fight. Prevent it ever getting to that phase of the game. Keep them small. The Tau don't have the stagnation or level of internal fragmentation that other 40K factions do, so the writers have to repeatedly pummel them to maintain the status quo of "eternal war" that 40k is built to accommodate.

Tau fleets have always been weak sauce against everything except tyranids. Something's gotta break for the Empire. AunVa is dead, replaced with an AI. There's something in the warp claiming the greater good. They're murdering their Gue'vesa in droves to cancel their psychic presence out of desperation and ignorance/refusal to acknowledge what the warp is. They're stretched too thin. Out too far; and the only one who knows what's really going on, Farsight, is possibly in danger of being corrupted by the warp. The Tau need the eldar to break shit down for them and give them a history lesson.
