How Did the Galaxy React to the Rise of the Tau? | Warhammer 40k Lore

Ойындар

Thank you for the support on the Cyber Dynasty Launch, the upcoming Kickstarter can be found here : www.kickstarter.com/projects/...
The Tau are the new kids on the block, with a culture younger than many characters still alive in the setting - so that begs the question, how did the other races and factions react to the new blue boys?

    @@sidesaddleintobattle4984 Yes, most races in the galaxy have the potential to develop some sort of psychic (it's really magic) power, but the orks are a bit different. Every ork passively develops a week psychic field called the waaag, the more orks there are the more powerful it is. The way it works is if you get enough orks together in one place believing the same thing than that thing becomes a reality. The most obvious commonly used example is orks believe red things go faster, so if an ork paints something red it will actually go slightly faster. This is the basis for all ork technology, or lack their of. Nothing an ork makes actually works, but every ork believes it will. A general rule of thumb for this setting I came up with is the antithesis to logic principle of 40K which states the less sence it makes in real life the more effective it would be in 40K. That's why the Tau are confined to one small corner of space and the orks are the most numerous faction in the galaxy (besides the tytanids, but they're from outside the galaxy.) That's why humanity is simultaneously the strongest faction in the galaxy and has countless points of failure that could cause it to collapse at any moment. That's why chaos, despite it's many, many, many, MANY, shortcomings is the biggest threat to the galaxy. And the orks are the embodiment of this rule.

    I started a Tau army very recently. The tau and Necrons were both factions that came about while I was away from the hobby, so I never had much affinity for them. These days though, I've been in and out of the hobby since the 80's, and have painted so much Loyalist and Chaos stuff, that Xenos races are my number one interest these days. I really like the general Tau aesthetic, and that they're like clean future in this weird mash up world of medieval meets space (it's like dark age punk or something, very original concept) Then you have tau which are like what you'd expect a future army to look like, rail guns and mech suits etc. They're just a great juxtaposition to the rest of the stuff in the universe (which is why a lot of people don't like them, or at least one of the reasons)

    Video ideas: 1: The limits of demonhood (could, for example, an AI, warmachine, or sentient weapon become a demon prince?) 2: How powerful is a navy capital ship anyways? You have ships capable of laying ruin to planets, yet capable of being taken out by a single ground based attack (see the Word Bearer’s Grand Cruiser Orge Lord, for example). 3: How plausible is the idea of the Silver Skulls being loyalist Iron Warriors, when Dantioch himself only commanded a total of 30 marines, of which only a handful survived to follow him to Ultramar? If not Dantioch, are there any other units the Silver Skulls could have descended from?

    Depends on which stage of the emperor we are talking about. There was a time the emperor was pretty open to alliances such as that. He was friends with Eldrad at one point and learned much from the eldar. But eventually, by the time of the great crusade, he had a very strong humanity first stance, and wished to scour the galaxy of all xenos regardless of how useful or friendly they might be. The most the tau could hope for under those circumstances was the emperor letting them stay as sanctioned xenos. But that again depends on if the tau can suppress their expansionist ideologies. Now though? Sitting on the throne as living corpse for 10000 years with so much hindsight and an even greater picture of how things are all over the galaxy? Maybe he'd reconsider his whole "Humanity first" stance. Or maybe not. Who knows.

    Given the Tau have birthed their own Warp God, they'd likely receive the same disdain he showed the old terra religions, since the idiot doesn't get a warp entity that protects your people is a good thing, especially since that puts somebody in the way to siphon off the power that would normally empower the Big 4 Chaos Gods.
