That's why a big ass warp portal cut them in half and still they keep shit talking the horrors of the warp... FOR THE IMPERIUM OF MAN XENOS AND HERETICS
Its actually happened on a few occasions. Basically, the Imperium swings in, deports the xenos to a corner of the planet and treat them as 2nd-3rd class citizens.

That pause in the music when Eliphas finds Aun'El... I can imagine hulking defilers smashing through Tau barracades , throwing dust and debris all around. Then, through the fading dust, the form of Eliphas leers down at the Ethereal, his Crozius hanging at his side. "There you are Alien, Your time has come." The Ethereal throws up a brave speech, but Eliphas marches forward, heedless of the alien's words. His cultists and legionnaires storm into the enemy lines, ripping apart the fire warriors and cutting into the Kroot, while leaving the enemy leader to the Apostle.
Jordan Manley The Ethereal makes a desperate attempt to swing his staff at the Dark Apostle, but it is batted aside with a contemptuous swat of the Chaos Lord’s arm. The dark and twisted Crozius rises and sweeps toward the defenceless Ethereal, hurling his now broken and shattered corpse aside like some mangled insect. With that, the last vestiges of morale among the Tau strike force were broken as swiftly as the body of their leader, bearing out a swift retreat off-world in collective despair, the stragglers overwhelmed and butchered by the hordes of Chaos Undivided.
HalfTangible It's not surprising in a certain way, after all they are both civilized and the Eldar, at least, don't worship anything evil besides Khaine, and it's pretty less evil than many of the gods and forces in the universe. (but yeah i don't say that Tau weren't Zealot ! I already know about the "etheral mass-brainwashing" thing ;) and, oh, hello again ! x))
lordlossize GG The Eldar would burn a planet if it meant preventing one of their own kind from breaking an ankle. They are NOTORIOUS for how ridiculously racist they are, even for 40k. After all, the Kronus campaign is too important to worry about the feelings of some little frog-thing with a shiny gun.
HalfTangible yeah, but they practically gave birth to the tau as a race. lets say the eldar had already destroyed the necrons, then they didnt need to continue the campaign

Magus: We will see how long you can hide, prey. Communications Array: Fire Warrior: Shas'O, the Tyranids are approaching the Communications Array! Magus: Our weapons are a part of us, Tau, we are never unarmed. This tower stands as a symbol of your natural inferiority. It will fall, as will you.

@@Brenhydra Really? Is there any record of Imperial slave race? Because I know there have been a ton of genocides, well xenocides, both after and before hostilities. It's even protocols when discovering a new planet, but I don't recall any slave race.
@@Brenhydra I read their wiki page, and they aren't slaves. In fact, most attempt at controlling them fails, and only some Inquisitors managed to have a retinue of them by gaining their affection. Reading the Xenos page though shows that as a rule all Xenos must be hated and killed, for they are blasphemous to the Emperor. It reminds me of DoW2 where Thaddeus, a young space marine, wonders why Eldars are destroying the Emperor's shrine when they should build shrine and beg Him to forgive them for being Xenos (And they say Space Marines are the good guys), and he's told that being Xenos is one sin that the Emperor cannot forgive. There are a few sanctioned xenos, like there are sanctioned psyckers, but this is not a species wide authorization. Some individuals may be given the right to live, it's relatively frequent for Rogue traders and some inquisitors. Kroot mercenaries often sell their services to the Imperium, although they give the T'au a discount. The attempt at sanction often fails, and some administrators denies it even exists. The "Cold Trade", the black market for xeno technology is unofficially tolerated. Beyond that the Lex Imperialis isn't always respected, and not all humans are part of the Imperium meaning there could be some slave species somewhere (or allied species, there could be whole kingdom and empires with milenia of peaceful coexistence). However as as soon as someone with authority and the will to put things in order arrives, all those Xenos will be killed, except maybe a few select individual on special request.

Would Emperor ally with aliens? From Great Crusade books, I had impression that he simply didn't give a shit about Eldars or anyalien, but it's not like he hated them, considering that even (uncorrupted) Horus was not sure what to do with aliens living peacefully with Humans.
Emidretrauqe The Emperor sought to spread humanity throughout the galaxy as the top race, he never said anything about /hating/ aliens. It's just humanity's past experiences with them that lead to the racism, especially among the Astartes and imperial army.
Daggsy The Tau are indeed an interesting race, as they are cut out from the warp and have strived toward science and technology, that was one of the Emperor original goal of humanity, to get rid of religion so that they would stop feeding the Chaos Gods and count on themselves only. Sadly, Imperium and Tau would still end up in war: the "greater good" fails to see the fact some races cannot be tolerated (hell, he tries to reason with CHAOS!!!), and they would be ok with Eldars, one race i'm SURE the Emperor would never trust, realizing how they NEED to be exterminated.
Funny story, the Eldar originally entered talks with the Imperium of Man before the horus heresy. Specifically, with a primarch called Lorgar...Before the humans (bar the emperor himself) knew anything about the ruinous powers of Chaos. The Eldar, sensing the taint of chaos on the primarch (dammit Erebus!) thought them servants of chaos and went hostile. Humanity, on the other hand, perceived it as an act of war, serving to drive the humans away from diplomacy in future. So yeah, Grim, check. Dark, check.
...So, the Eldars were the culprit of it. Instead of actually reasoning, the thing they supposedly do best, they pulled out the guns on the Imperium. And let's remind everyone that THEIR race gave birth to one of the Ruinous powers. Cleanse these space elves!

I always felt sorry for the Tau. They're so damn nice and naive, It's like putting a 8 year old in a room with a bunch of murderers, rapists, and looneys.
Gul Maraz Yeah was gonna say, who could possibly look at the Tau seriously for a second and call them nice. Sure they look nicer than others on the outside but their lore is considerably different. Hell I'd call the Orks nicer than the Tau.
Dat "Naive Child" of Taldeer was so freakin' epic (at 1:12). And i was hoping that the space marine shut down the mouth of Au'nel at 4:28 by saying him something like "you and your mens are zealot too, you fool !".
Svart Hert Nothing can surpass the self righteous zealotry of the imperials....also, they dont see themselves as zealots...just...really REALLY faithful dudes.
+SirAndrei of Order Mariș The Emperor himself doesn't really see himself as a god and he tried to eradicate all the religions that existed in the galaxy when he was still strong and fully alive. Faith can mean two thing, to have complete trust or confidence in someone/something or in the religious way to have a strong belief in a god which is based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof.
Completely agree with you. Davian Thule would also say: "Speak for yourself greyskin scum. Are you so weak?" This make sence because calling someone zealot and and use dirty practics to force join another to the greater good an he is zealot as well should shut up.

Oh, it will fall. The Tau have at least one Genestealer Cult among their worlds, The 'nids are closing in from the East and below, and the Necrons have wiped out at least one world. Given that the Tau Empire is largely on the defensive, due to the aforementioned 'nids and the Imperium, we're staring at their extermination due to-- Are those Eldar helping them out? Okay, they may hang on a bit longer.
josh sierakowski you dont seem to know that the imperium compare to the tau are but weaklings. all of these worthless blind fools are not even truly united and most of them even want to be with the tau while their leaders are just madmen not sightly different from the chaos fools. and the rest of them like the orks witch are fighting eachother,the eldar that foolishly keep fighting the tau with no effect at all and the necrons witch can't even get to firing range are all botherless threats. the greater good will NEVER fail.
This is was the first time I've heard Thule speak & introduced to Dark Crusade. I thought he wasn't as epic as I thought, but that line alone was just poorly delivered. He's still cool don't get me wrong.
The irony of Aun'el calling the Space Marines zealots and anyone who doesn't agree with their philosophy as tyrants is palpable. Though that's obviously the point.
@@nicholasoneal1521 Tau are only more flexible with their ideology when it comes to religion and worship. They are not flexible on their caste system, and they certainly are not flexible on their overall ideology. While their ideology allows for more religious freedom SOMETIMES, they allow significantly less class mobility than the Imperium, and much like the Imperium they do not tolerate criticism or free thinkers either.
Somehow I believe it would be fitting if parts of Eliphas' other speeches would be here: Eliphas: (after hearing Aun'El's "we will triumph"-speech) "What a rousing little speech, alien. Unfortunately, your "greater good" cannot protect you from us..." Aun'El: "I do not fear you, human! We fight for the Greater Good!" Eliphas: "I should hope not, alien, fearless foes are much more satisfying..."

What if the covenant from halo was in Dawn of War Dark Crusade. Intro: Arbiter: surrender honored Tau, we do not need to fight. Ethereal: We cannot, our purpose here is to reclaim what is ours and bring forth the greater good. Arbiter: very well then, a fight to the death it shall be. Communication Array: Kais: protect the communication array! Deploy additional forces to unity plaza! Arbiter: Brothers, capture that station and the enemy shall revealed to us! End: Arbiter: Surrender honored Ethereal, enough blood has already stained upon this battlefield. Ethereal: I do not fear you Arbiter, the greater good shall prevail. Arbiter: very well, I'll give you the warrior death in your honor. After Action Report: After the battle against the Tau empire, the covenant rounded up whatever survivors was left and had their apothecaries treat their wounds and then sending them to the internment camps where they would be kept safe, the Arbiter wishes to give these warriors the respect they deserve and had the Ethereal's body preserved for burial once the battle on kronus is finished. While the battle against the Tau empire was unavoidable, the Arbiter has hope that the Tau empire would be open to communication once shown that they have honor and giving their warriors the care and respect they deserve. As for the humans that was under the Tau banner were mercilessly slaughtered, as dictated by the Prophet of Vigilance that the quest to purge the heretics is still an important holy mission that needs to be completed. And the Arbiter obligded and had his Elites and hunters kill whatever remains of the humans in the city.
The quotes between the Eldar and the T'au are kind of sad. There is a mutual respect there with both of them calling each other formally, the Ethereal trying to dissuade the Eldar from attacking and the Eldar saying how he has no other choice anymore.

Are you sure?Why they can to seek cooperation with the orcs and eldar?What about Slaanesh-worshipping Laer,and xeno mercenaries of Alpha Legion?What about Red Corsairs and Drukhari?
@@ШтурмикРезкий CSM view xenos as pawns at best. A hassle most of the time with no return on investment. The actions by or against orks feed gork and mork. The Eldar feed Slaanesh but they oppose the dark gods. Tau don't have much of a warp presence and thus aren't worth the bother. Necrons and Tyranids can actively deploy anti-warp weaponry
On that point, we're agreed. In Dark Crusade, Taldeer's operating from a single cruiser, which means she probably has no more than about 4,000 combatants under her command (of whom by far the majority would be Guardians). It's a number that Ulthwe can ill-afford to sacrifice meaninglessly, but Ulthwe is better able to stomach the deaths of Taldeer's crew than the Blood Ravens Chapter are to stomach the deaths of Thule's three companies.
Still I think that Eldar and Tau can somehow form a peace between themselves. They are technologically superior races, seeking balance and peace in the Universe.
“We reclaim this city for the immortal god emperor of man!” “We have no interest in bowing to your lord, invader.” “Then you must die, alien.” …Wait, does that mean the Imperial Guard were seriously going to just conquer the Tau and make them a vassal if they worshipped the Emperor? That’s surprisingly tolerant for the Imperium towards another species.
Communications tower, everyone: "This will be a tactical advantage in the ongoing struggle, we must claim it for our own!" Communications tower, Orks: "Da Grey Skins 're protektin dis towa, git krumpin' boyz!"
The Ethereal pheromones are more like a boost to the nearby troops morale rather than being an active way of mind control. Ethereals are not always on or near the battlefield, meaning that Tau warriors truly believe in the Greater Good.
In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war. Madness drives madness, and that will lead to heretical acts in the name of greatness. For either the God emperor, the greater good, or chaos, unspeakable acts will be had by mad men and the sane alike. No one is safe in such grim darkness.

The tide of claws and bio-weapons overwhelmed the Tau defenders and devoured the Ethereal guiding the war effort. After the retreat of Shas'O'kais, the Tyranids made a methodical, yet savage, genocide of every remaining Tau and human citizens, killing each of them without distinction and left their corpses for the swarms of Rippers Swarms, consuming the biomass of Kronus' largest city. After the destruction of the city, the Tyranids simply moved to another target.

I always love the surprise of Aun'el when he discover that the Necron are souless. It's so impossible for him that his surprise stop him from thinking about the massive fucking army that come for his face-vagina
Gotta love how polite the Eldar and Tau are to each other. Meanwhile the Imperium is just shit talking everyone and everything lol.
I mean its their planet and they are re-taking it, why would you do anything else?
@@aleksander5279 Even if it wasn't; civility is reserved for people, not xenos scum.
That's why a big ass warp portal cut them in half and still they keep shit talking the horrors of the warp... FOR THE IMPERIUM OF MAN XENOS AND HERETICS
I kinda wonder how the Imperium would react if there were a group of aliens worshipping the god emperor of mankind
*****
They'd exterminate the filthy xenoes for daring to insult the God Emperor with their pathetic presence and prays.
***** I think it depends if a radical inquisitor found them hed prob use them to fight the IOM's enemies
Its actually happened on a few occasions. Basically, the Imperium swings in, deports the xenos to a corner of the planet and treat them as 2nd-3rd class citizens.
Cato Sicarius I think the Black Templars found a group worshipping the Voice of the Emperor as they called it.
Although shocked, they destroyed the temples, in case it was Tzeentch, and left them be.

That pause in the music when Eliphas finds Aun'El... I can imagine hulking defilers smashing through Tau barracades , throwing dust and debris all around. Then, through the fading dust, the form of Eliphas leers down at the Ethereal, his Crozius hanging at his side. "There you are Alien, Your time has come."
The Ethereal throws up a brave speech, but Eliphas marches forward, heedless of the alien's words. His cultists and legionnaires storm into the enemy lines, ripping apart the fire warriors and cutting into the Kroot, while leaving the enemy leader to the Apostle.
Jordan Manley
The Ethereal makes a desperate attempt to swing his staff at the Dark Apostle, but it is batted aside with a contemptuous swat of the Chaos Lord’s arm.
The dark and twisted Crozius rises and sweeps toward the defenceless Ethereal, hurling his now broken and shattered corpse aside like some mangled insect.
With that, the last vestiges of morale among the Tau strike force were broken as swiftly as the body of their leader, bearing out a swift retreat off-world in collective despair, the stragglers overwhelmed and butchered by the hordes of Chaos Undivided.
@@rustkarl In the words of the Plague Marines, "WE CANNOT BE DENIED!"
Sorry, Chaos is my favorite faction
How appropriately grimdark.
chilling!
I like how the eldar speak down to the tau, however still speak to them like a respecting teacher would to a high schooler
I find it interesting that the Eldar are the only group that the Tau don't insult in some way.
HalfTangible It's not surprising in a certain way, after all they are both civilized and the Eldar, at least, don't worship anything evil besides Khaine, and it's pretty less evil than many of the gods and forces in the universe.
(but yeah i don't say that Tau weren't Zealot ! I already know about the "etheral mass-brainwashing" thing ;) and, oh, hello again ! x))
HalfTangible i find it off that the eldar would want to attack the tau, since they basically created them
lordlossize GG The Eldar would burn a planet if it meant preventing one of their own kind from breaking an ankle. They are NOTORIOUS for how ridiculously racist they are, even for 40k.
After all, the Kronus campaign is too important to worry about the feelings of some little frog-thing with a shiny gun.
HalfTangible yeah, but they practically gave birth to the tau as a race. lets say the eldar had already destroyed the necrons, then they didnt need to continue the campaign
+Svart Hert the eldar dont really workship khaine afterall they betrayed him and keep his corpse divided so that he will never resurrect again.
4:05 you can really hear the desperation and fear in the taus voices as the necrons find there ethereal and his terror when he finds out they have no souls
Tyranids (With Genestealer Cult Magus as speaker):
Aun'El: Tyranids, your potential as a species is nearly limitless. Why waste it on such mindless slaughter?
Magus: We were made to be predators, Tau, just like your kind were made to be prey. Striving to be anything else is the true waste.
Aun'El: Madness! Your rampage ends here, beast!
Magus: We will see how long you can hide, prey.
Communications Array:
Fire Warrior: Shas'O, the Tyranids are approaching the Communications Array!
Magus: Our weapons are a part of us, Tau, we are never unarmed. This tower stands as a symbol of your natural inferiority. It will fall, as will you.

@@Contevent Look up theJokearos
@@Brenhydra I read their wiki page, and they aren't slaves. In fact, most attempt at controlling them fails, and only some Inquisitors managed to have a retinue of them by gaining their affection.
Reading the Xenos page though shows that as a rule all Xenos must be hated and killed, for they are blasphemous to the Emperor. It reminds me of DoW2 where Thaddeus, a young space marine, wonders why Eldars are destroying the Emperor's shrine when they should build shrine and beg Him to forgive them for being Xenos (And they say Space Marines are the good guys), and he's told that being Xenos is one sin that the Emperor cannot forgive.
There are a few sanctioned xenos, like there are sanctioned psyckers, but this is not a species wide authorization. Some individuals may be given the right to live, it's relatively frequent for Rogue traders and some inquisitors. Kroot mercenaries often sell their services to the Imperium, although they give the T'au a discount. The attempt at sanction often fails, and some administrators denies it even exists.
The "Cold Trade", the black market for xeno technology is unofficially tolerated.
Beyond that the Lex Imperialis isn't always respected, and not all humans are part of the Imperium meaning there could be some slave species somewhere (or allied species, there could be whole kingdom and empires with milenia of peaceful coexistence). However as as soon as someone with authority and the will to put things in order arrives, all those Xenos will be killed, except maybe a few select individual on special request.

The way that O’Kais sounds during the necrons finding aun’el is sorta sad he just sounds so defeated like he knows there is no chance other than all his warriors dying to save aun’el
I find it hilariously hypocritical how the Tau call the Space Marines zealots, yet they won't shut up about their 'greater good'.
Well, it takes one to know one.
Heretic!
The defense is they know they're right
To be honest most of the biggest factions in WH40k are zealots.
The Greater Good isn't a religious thing though.
Unlike the other race,s the Tau and Eldar seems to respect each other.
Completely agree with you.

No.
it's a bit rich for a ethereal to call others tyrants or zealots.
Tis what we call 'hypocritical'.
The greater good is more of a political ideology than it is a religious one.
Not when the others are Imperials
This was back before the retcons, but yeah, kind of. Some of the ethereals are good people, at least.
That's because they are much less of a tyrant, zealot or hypocrite than Chaos or the Imperium.

the hive mind talks as you can see in dow2
James Maki Could it be possible to have a genestealer speaking for them?
BlackOrcShagrat Thats a good question! Its posible but they would likely not say much. Kinda like the necron paraiah does.
Would Emperor ally with aliens? From Great Crusade books, I had impression that he simply didn't give a shit about Eldars or anyalien, but it's not like he hated them, considering that even (uncorrupted) Horus was not sure what to do with aliens living peacefully with Humans.
Probably not. The Emperor would truce with aliens, most certainly. But we all know what his stance on xenos are in ideal circumstances.
Emidretrauqe The Emperor sought to spread humanity throughout the galaxy as the top race, he never said anything about /hating/ aliens. It's just humanity's past experiences with them that lead to the racism, especially among the Astartes and imperial army.
Daggsy The Tau are indeed an interesting race, as they are cut out from the warp and have strived toward science and technology, that was one of the Emperor original goal of humanity, to get rid of religion so that they would stop feeding the Chaos Gods and count on themselves only. Sadly, Imperium and Tau would still end up in war: the "greater good" fails to see the fact some races cannot be tolerated (hell, he tries to reason with CHAOS!!!), and they would be ok with Eldars, one race i'm SURE the Emperor would never trust, realizing how they NEED to be exterminated.
Funny story, the Eldar originally entered talks with the Imperium of Man before the horus heresy.
Specifically, with a primarch called Lorgar...Before the humans (bar the emperor himself) knew anything about the ruinous powers of Chaos.
The Eldar, sensing the taint of chaos on the primarch (dammit Erebus!) thought them servants of chaos and went hostile.
Humanity, on the other hand, perceived it as an act of war, serving to drive the humans away from diplomacy in future.
So yeah, Grim, check. Dark, check.
...So, the Eldars were the culprit of it. Instead of actually reasoning, the thing they supposedly do best, they pulled out the guns on the Imperium. And let's remind everyone that THEIR race gave birth to one of the Ruinous powers. Cleanse these space elves!

And the kid believes in an expansionist Orwellian police state where he’s in control.
Gul Maraz Yeah was gonna say, who could possibly look at the Tau seriously for a second and call them nice. Sure they look nicer than others on the outside but their lore is considerably different. Hell I'd call the Orks nicer than the Tau.

Svart Hert Nothing can surpass the self righteous zealotry of the imperials....also, they dont see themselves as zealots...just...really REALLY faithful dudes.
+SirAndrei of Order Mariș The Emperor himself doesn't really see himself as a god and he tried to eradicate all the religions that existed in the galaxy when he was still strong and fully alive. Faith can mean two thing, to have complete trust or confidence in someone/something or in the religious way to have a strong belief in a god which is based on spiritual apprehension rather than proof.
Completely agree with you. Davian Thule would also say: "Speak for yourself greyskin scum. Are you so weak?" This make sence because calling someone zealot and and use dirty practics to force join another to the greater good an he is zealot as well should shut up.

Oh, it will fall. The Tau have at least one Genestealer Cult among their worlds, The 'nids are closing in from the East and below, and the Necrons have wiped out at least one world. Given that the Tau Empire is largely on the defensive, due to the aforementioned 'nids and the Imperium, we're staring at their extermination due to-- Are those Eldar helping them out? Okay, they may hang on a bit longer.
josh sierakowski you dont seem to know that the imperium compare to the tau are but weaklings.
all of these worthless blind fools are not even truly united and most of them even want to be with the tau while their leaders are just madmen not sightly different from the chaos fools.
and the rest of them like the orks witch are fighting eachother,the eldar that foolishly keep fighting the tau with no effect at all and the necrons witch can't even get to firing range are all botherless threats.
the greater good will NEVER fail.
Just as Horus fell, you greater good will shrivel in the radiant strength of the guard xenos.
Everyone has a reasonable respect for the eldar. They have a very mystical aura and a deep insight that make Humans, Tau, and even the Orcs uneasy.

This is was the first time I've heard Thule speak & introduced to Dark Crusade. I thought he wasn't as epic as I thought, but that line alone was just poorly delivered. He's still cool don't get me wrong.
The irony of Aun'el calling the Space Marines zealots and anyone who doesn't agree with their philosophy as tyrants is palpable.
Though that's obviously the point.
To be fair, the Tau are far more flexible with their ideology (such as when they allow humans to keep worshiping the Emperor)
@@nicholasoneal1521 Tau are only more flexible with their ideology when it comes to religion and worship. They are not flexible on their caste system, and they certainly are not flexible on their overall ideology. While their ideology allows for more religious freedom SOMETIMES, they allow significantly less class mobility than the Imperium, and much like the Imperium they do not tolerate criticism or free thinkers either.
Somehow I believe it would be fitting if parts of Eliphas' other speeches would be here:
Eliphas: (after hearing Aun'El's "we will triumph"-speech) "What a rousing little speech, alien. Unfortunately, your "greater good" cannot protect you from us..."
Aun'El: "I do not fear you, human! We fight for the Greater Good!"
Eliphas: "I should hope not, alien, fearless foes are much more satisfying..."
*DEFEND THAT TAU'ER!*

"What could we learn from you, barbarians?!"
"Lesson 1 - Weapons of His servants" [Pulls out bolter and shoots the Taus]
"Lesson 2 - Strength of His servants" [Punches Taus in the faces]
"Lesson 3 - Faith of His servants"
...
"Okay, where did the Chaplain went to?"

After Action Report:
After the battle against the Tau empire, the covenant rounded up whatever survivors was left and had their apothecaries treat their wounds and then sending them to the internment camps where they would be kept safe, the Arbiter wishes to give these warriors the respect they deserve and had the Ethereal's body preserved for burial once the battle on kronus is finished.
While the battle against the Tau empire was unavoidable, the Arbiter has hope that the Tau empire would be open to communication once shown that they have honor and giving their warriors the care and respect they deserve.
As for the humans that was under the Tau banner were mercilessly slaughtered, as dictated by the Prophet of Vigilance that the quest to purge the heretics is still an important holy mission that needs to be completed. And the Arbiter obligded and had his Elites and hunters kill whatever remains of the humans in the city.
I like how Taldeer is actually semi polite to him
The quotes between the Eldar and the T'au are kind of sad. There is a mutual respect there with both of them calling each other formally, the Ethereal trying to dissuade the Eldar from attacking and the Eldar saying how he has no other choice anymore.

I'll have a go with updated Necrons
Entry -
Imotekh: Surrender now, young T'au. You cannot prevail against the might of the Sautekh Dynasty.
O'Kais: The Greater Good will never bow to your murderous ways, invader. We will stop you here.
Imotekh: Typical. Very well, you have sealed your fate.
Communications Array -
Cryptek: Phaeron Imotekh, I believe the living are using this crude contraption to hide themselves from us.
O'Kais: The Necrons have made it to Unity Plaza! We must drive them out before it's too late!
Imotekh: It was already too late when you defied us.
Aun'el -
Imotekh: Your life reaches it's end, Ethereal. Know that your struggle was all for naught. History will forget you, but the glory of Sautekh will last forever.
Aun'el: No matter what, the Greater Good will never be lost to the ages.
O'Kais: Fire Warriors, beat these genocidal monsters back! Protect Aun'el, at all costs...
Order of the Sacred Rose vs. T'au Strike Force
Entry
Aun'el: Your mass genocide and immolations ends now, gue'la!
Canoness Agna: The Greater Good withers by the light of the Emperor, false saint.
Aun'el: I will not be called a saint, you are a nuisance to the Greater Good.
Canoness Agna: The only nuisance I see here, is you and your city brought down in flames!
Communications Array
Canoness Agna: Sisters, capture the communications array and bring holy retribution to these xenos!
O'Kais: Strike teams, deploy to Unity Plaza! Defend that tower!
End
Canoness Agna: There is the false saint, my Sisters. Kill him and the bastion is ours!
Aun'el: Your faith is strong, gue'la. But nothing can stand the Greater Good.
O'Kais: Fire Warriors, beat these humans back! Protect Aun'el at all costs!
+Ken Lenard Navarro I approve.
+Vincent Celeste this, IG & Space Marines are considered humans.

I don't see anyone talking about my favorite line.
1:27 -"I long ago surrendered hope of anything being easy."
It's funny that despite being pawns of the dark gods, chaos space marines hate xenos just as much as their loyalist cousins. Perhaps even more
Are you sure?Why they can to seek cooperation with the orcs and eldar?What about Slaanesh-worshipping Laer,and xeno mercenaries of Alpha Legion?What about Red Corsairs and Drukhari?
@@ШтурмикРезкий CSM view xenos as pawns at best. A hassle most of the time with no return on investment. The actions by or against orks feed gork and mork. The Eldar feed Slaanesh but they oppose the dark gods. Tau don't have much of a warp presence and thus aren't worth the bother. Necrons and Tyranids can actively deploy anti-warp weaponry
I fucking love the imperial guard voice lines. They are done so perfectly.
Tyrant says the tyrant
"The only madness is in failing to see the power of Chaos!", awesome line and totally true.
"These creatures have no souls at all!", necrons rule
1:57 goes hard
Casshern ~ Our Last Day - 06 - Kido ~ Scene #51
I like how Farseer Taldeer has at least a small amount of respect for the Tau in using his full name and title.
Ye he also call her name Taldeer and not the witch or Farseer only as another races.
On that point, we're agreed. In Dark Crusade, Taldeer's operating from a single cruiser, which means she probably has no more than about 4,000 combatants under her command (of whom by far the majority would be Guardians). It's a number that Ulthwe can ill-afford to sacrifice meaninglessly, but Ulthwe is better able to stomach the deaths of Taldeer's crew than the Blood Ravens Chapter are to stomach the deaths of Thule's three companies.
Huh, I just realized that Taldeer and Aun'El refered to each other by name.
Still I think that Eldar and Tau can somehow form a peace between themselves. They are technologically superior races, seeking balance and peace in the Universe.
I'll admit, this was far more satisfying than I expected it to be.
“We reclaim this city for the immortal god emperor of man!”
“We have no interest in bowing to your lord, invader.”
“Then you must die, alien.”
…Wait, does that mean the Imperial Guard were seriously going to just conquer the Tau and make them a vassal if they worshipped the Emperor? That’s surprisingly tolerant for the Imperium towards another species.
these videos are soo goooood the ost is just perfect
4:25 "the Emperururur"
hahahaha
Communications tower, everyone: "This will be a tactical advantage in the ongoing struggle, we must claim it for our own!"
Communications tower, Orks: "Da Grey Skins 're protektin dis towa, git krumpin' boyz!"
Virgin Aun'El: We fight for the Greater Good!
Chad Raven Cpt. Thule: The Greater Good can kiss my super human ass!
The Ethereal pheromones are more like a boost to the nearby troops morale rather than being an active way of mind control. Ethereals are not always on or near the battlefield, meaning that Tau warriors truly believe in the Greater Good.
4:26 is hilarious! I loved how Thule talked there. He's such a pompous asshole. Gabriel Angelos was the perfect marine commander.
Governer Alexander sounds cool
We reclame this city for the Immortal God Emperor of Man!!
Cut through them man!! For the Emperor
"The only madness is in failing to see the power of Chaos"
>i long ago surrendered any hope of anything being easy
AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.
Madness drives madness, and that will lead to heretical acts in the name of greatness. For either the God emperor, the greater good, or chaos, unspeakable acts will be had by mad men and the sane alike. No one is safe in such grim darkness.
This game is a masterpiece
Ive been watching your videos and they are AWESOME!
Tyranids assault against Tash'n
Aun'el : By the Greater Good ! What is this horror ?
O'kais : Noble Ethereal, this is the Tyranids Swarm. One of the worst ennemy of the Greater Good
Aun'el : Exterminate them Commander, the Greater Good demand their destruction
Communication Array :
O'kais : The Tyranids have reach Unity Plaza, drive them back before they disrupt communication
End
Sha'Sui : Commander !!! The Tyranids are in the Citadel
Aun'el : We can still triumph !!! Keep faith
O'kais : Fire Warriors, beat this monster back. Protect Aun'el at all cost
Action Report :
The Tau Empire already faced the evil of the Tyranids swarms when Hive-Fleet Gorgon pushed toward their Empire. The strategy of O'kais could have succeded against another ennemy, but the Tyranids were too many for his stealth teams, fire warriors squads and Kroot packs. The tide of claws and bio-weapons overwhelmed the Tau defenders and devoured the Ethereal guiding the war effort.
After the retreat of Shas'O'kais, the Tyranids made a methodical, yet savage, genocide of every remaining Tau and human citizens, killing each of them without distinction and left their corpses for the swarms of Rippers Swarms, consuming the biomass of Kronus' largest city. After the destruction of the city, the Tyranids simply moved to another target.
“THAT’S THEIR DEVIANT LEADER!” Best line
Protecc Aun'el at all cost! >:(
1:41 I love how she says his name so softly.
4:15
That's rich, coming from a T'au.
Tau: *Insult faction*
Factions that isn't Necron or Ork: Say how they are in the right.
Ork: You wanna fite?
Necron: You first.
Are the Tau supposed to sound Asian?
+Caio Trubat yes, like japanese accent.
The Tau were essentially an anime-style tech race, with their drones, power armor, aso. So I would say, 'probably'.
@@toddkes5890 well their designs are more based in reality than anime which is why their suits are more built for efficiency
I read they were built after the chinese with the concept of communism (sacrifice for the greater good)..
God 2007, I feel so old
long live the emperor
