The young naivitee of the Tau may be what earns them plenty of ridicule, but it's also a terrifying asset: where most factions are stagnant or on the decline, they are still advancing, and QUICKLY. Every time you fight them they learn more about your technology. Every moment you leave them alone they grow stronger.
@gama343

Kinda sorta. The rate of their advancement is rapidly slowing as they have to devote more and more resources away from science/technology development and towards industry, expansion and warfare in order to not get swallowed up by the many threats surrounding them. Poor bastards have Tyrannids coming at them from the intergalactic void, an Ork empire WAAAGH!!!-ing toward them from the opposite side, and the Five Hundred Realms of Ultramar and a Necron Dynasty to the left and right. The most friendly space they have access to is the Damocles Gulf region, which is contested by the Imperium, so they can't expand through there too fast or else the Imperium might send an actual crusade force, which would doom their species.

It is implied in Dawn of War that Eldar might actually not hold that negative view on Tau in general. Iyanden was likely just mad at first for the loss of their maiden world (they are all the rage about them) and then simply got focused on the Dark Eldar.

So eldar tech is millions of years old and psychically locked to them and designed to work in tune with them (does the Shadow of the Warp mess with that conductivity and the War Masks and all? Or other warp/real space anomalies?) they don’t need to innovate because their tech was venerable before many races existed.

Tau are so naiive. Its quite profound when they capture an Imperial Dreadnaught and realize he's *thousands of years older than their entire civilization.* Interactions with Eldari and situations like this gave them an epiphany: they are a newcomer on the galactic stage of the Grimdark and very, very much the underdog.
Imperium: I hate you. Eldar: I hate you more. Tau: I hate both of you….wanna hang out? Imperium: DIE XENO SUCM!!! Eldar: PATHETIC SAVAGES!!! [Accidentally kills tau] Eldar: wait. What was that blue thing you killed? Imperium: what blue thing? Eldar: Eh, probably wasn’t important. Hey it’s getting pretty late, wanna pick up again here tomorrow? Imperium: Eeeehhhhh why not? See ya tomorrow Sam. Eldar: Sure thing Ralph.

The problem for the Eldar is that allies are usually just a liability to them. The Eldar are a dying race so they can't really risk losing people and weakening themselves to protect any allies. They are already struggling to protect their own irreplacable Craftworlds and Maiden Worlds. Meanwhile, their allies won't be able to help protect the Eldar in most cases. Because unlike the Eldar, those allies won't be able to use the Webway to simply materialize everywhere in the galaxy. So if an Eldar Craftworld or Maiden World comes under attack, by the time the allies finally arrive it will usually be too late. Also, an alliance might draw attention from enemy forces, and the Eldar usually try to avoid drawing attention to themselves as much as possible to avoid putting themselves at risk unneccesarily. In other words, the Eldar have very little to gain from a permanent, standing alliance with anyone. They are much better off continueing as they are, occasionally making alliances of opportunity with the Imperium but not making any permanent commitments.

@@justinianthegreat1444 You mean that one gun on that one ship that is completely under control by the highly secretive Mechanicum that literally cannot be replaced in any respect? That gun? That one singular gun? That completely unique museum piece and holy relic of a gun that can't be replaced? Buddy, just because they have it doesn't mean they can make more of it or have more of it nor does it mean they'll bust it out every five seconds. They can't afford to let anyone know about it because it will either end in the gun being destroyed, end in being taken and turned on them, or end in it being taken and corrupted by Chaos. Just because they have it doesn't mean it's something they can pull out at any time. They only have one and it's too valuable to use. The average level of Imperial Tech is nowhere near the average level of Tau Tech.

theres something creepy about hearing the tau not being the ones with advanced technology in a sentence
You have more chance of having a temporary alliance with Eldar as a human than having temporary alliances with Eldar as a Tau
The tau want to be your friend so they can take any tech they want from your alliance.
Good thing it was Iyanden or the conversation would’ve gone like this “So sorry about destroying your planet, how about we go and-“ *The Tau’s head explodes before the Craftworld Biel-Tan Seer Farseer personally wipes 3 Tau Solar Systems off the map to make it even before telling the Tau that they aren’t interested in helping them fight the Dark Eldar together*
Shame... I was kinda looking forward to the t'au finding out that wraithbone is made from pure warp energy and starting to make mechs powered with the souls of both their own fallen and killed enemies. That could possibly make them something other than an annoyance in the current setting (and give us hilarious stories about the t'au being very surprised when a wraithknight powered by a khornate berserker turns on them XD)

When you consider that Iyanden is one of the more friendly and tolerant Craftworlds and they still didn't want to buddy up with the Tau. Obviously the enslavment stuff they do is a sign that with enough pressure they can be worse then some Imperials.

Honestly though if I was to be any race in warhammer. It would be tau.

Being a Craftworld Eldar isn't so bad either. They have pretty idyllic lives doing Elf stuff in their pretty crystal spires and forests most of the time. The only problem is that after you die you either get stuck in a pokéball or your soul gets eaten by Slaanesh.

Lol, the Tau didn't want to be friends, they just wanted the technology. That is typical Ethereal caste plotting, obfuscating their true intentions and manipulations with false offers and assurances of friendship. It is how the Ethereals expand and maintain their power and manipulate the other Tau in serving them. The Eldar of course saw right through that facade. The Tau have absolutely nothing they could offer the Eldar in an alliance.
Who? What? Heh? My ignorance makes this a roller coaster to say the very least.
The Tau and Eldar seem like the only two factions that have an agreement albeit probably something along the lines of a Non-aggression pact that is very loose and can crumble if someone looks at the other wrong.

The funny thing is humans once had superior tech to what the Tau currently have. They just lost it all when everything went tits up due to the emergence of ever greater psychic activity among humans. It attracted the entities in the warp who started influencing humans and their tech. The same will happen to the Tau if they start becoming psychic.
