Yeah, that bit cracked me up. hes basically like "these Gue'ron'sha keep really odd pets"

now i had to imagine all sorts of daemons caught on a treadmill to provide the warp drive its power

I mean, he's kinda right

I mean that is almost the way necrons power their stuff

He eventually learns of Chaos and whatnot, but until then it is indeed pretty hilarious.

Let's not compare farsight to mastershitface

Farsight is similar to Char in Mobile Suit Gundam. They both pilot red mechs. They both went against their government, but remain loyal to their people. They have insane leadership and tactician skills. They literally strike fear in any enemy that sees them coming towards them solo

😂

Loser

I CATO SICARIUS SAY THATS NOT TRUE BECAUSE I CATO SICARIUS IS THE STRONGES!

I CAST FIST

if the emperor had TTS references

Appreciate it 😂

Do still play extinction?

Bonus points for Mr. Sicarius

So what you're saying is, "That man is a Char."

Good catch

Ooh I really like that comparison

I've been saying this for a thousand times in the WH40K fandom and some of them get the reference but most of them has no idea lmao.

He's not the only Char reference. The orkz "da red wuns goes fastah" wagh power is pretty much lifted from the whole Chars red Zaku II being hailed as 3x faster than a normal zaku (funnily enough it was only 1.3x faster and gained the acceleration purely from jumping on and off debris and had nothing to do with the actual mechanical speed of his machine)

Are the books good? I’ve been looking for more things to read

Farsight didn't like the subjugation of his people, he's still very Pro subjugation of other races and sterilisation.

So that's why we haven't heard from him in the lore lately.

Yeah sure 300 years old space marines are not match.....

​@@fabienherry6690 This is Better Tau Lore... Tau most use ranged weps since they're not good at melee combat....But If you see one using melee... ...... It's a Fuck Up.....

​@@nowwhat9053 Tau lore is fucked up by the rules like genetically selected warrior that train since birth then spend decade in battlefield around the galaxy in a fight for survival despite the lack of ressources his civilisation possess compare to the brutality and fastnest of galaxy so he has to focus on precision and killing his ennemy before they can fight back only helped by his conviction and technology that is forever improving ! He is wielding a battlesuit that is in a constant state of improvement filled with AI here to amplify his prowess ... BS4+/WS 5+ Standard hive shit janitor that get handed a mass produced flashlight train for a few month in warp transit in between the eldrich horror and the spontanous orgy . Told that his best hope of survival is statistic since even 98% loss still mean 2% survival. BS 4+/WS4+ ... AND WORST If the janitor survive a few years/months enough to be considered a "veteran" he magically get BS3+/WS3+ Na the only lore possible to make sense of the rules is that the ethereal made a pack/gamble with the daemon god to conquer the galaxy with the weakest species in the universe. cause yeah did i forgot to mention that this alien species that can't get more than standard efficiencies despite the focus and the effort ... This species is also incapable to do any magic ... And you know what ? Commander who are just promoted to command soldier have BS2+/WS3+ ... So actually the Tau isn't naturally weak as a species but are made so for the sake of the deal the ethereal made with the gods ! And only when a Tau start to gain some independance and distance themselves from the ethereal do they regain their normal capability. Would also explain why farsight get so much "you get 3+BS on your soldier" and why they aren't horrible in melee fight. The more i think about it the more it make sense ! Change my mind

I know what you mean, but what i like about the 40k storytelling is that there are barelly any real „victories“. On the example of the tau, they completely lost against the imperium in the Damocles-Gulf Campaign. They suffered massive casualties and would have been wiped out if the imperial forces didnt retreat. Sounds stupid, but then the story from the other side goes that this was at the same time as the first Tyrannic war and all imperial ships were called to Macragge to stop the Tyranids. The tau didnt „win“, they were devastated, morale crushed, they lost millions of lives and this whole thing ended an era for them... Same with the battle for Agrellan (M‘gulath bay), tau win the planet, imperium takes it back, tau re-capture it in a grand campaign... only for the imperium to exterminatus the planet and burn it to the ground, again defeating the Tau. Another aspect is that no group in 40k ever had a real 100% full force battle, to even the odds and avoid the whole „this faction got wiped out forever“ storyline. Even the Major events like the fall of Cadia had GIANT armies, but in the end it was like „1 ship of the Ultramarines here, 100 black templars there..“ and not the full might of the imperium (same with chaos, as the death guard and Thousand Sons were busy fighting elsewhere). It would be boring if someone would just outright loose amd at the end of the day no Player wants to see his faction always loose. If they just said, „well the Eldar got wiped out by a giant ork-waaagh“ noone would buy their Minifigures anymore...

@@KTechOffical kinda makes me wish that the writers would actually show the Imperium of Man really losing critical ground, after all for an empire that expands over millions of Star systems, there is so much potential for seeing significant loses on the Space Marines and the Imperium of Man.

The Tau have lost battles against the Imperium in the past and non of what you said has come to pass. That said I agree with the general statement that the Imperium can afford to lose more battles then that of the Tau. But it’s not a one and done thing either if the Tau do lose.

Eww fucking aliens

@@acendantoverlord5737 imperial victories over the tau often pyrrhic victories. Yes they win but their forces are crippled and they can't press the advantage.

i mean the problem might be that guillaman is probably gonna be weirded out by the whole "mystical possibly chaos sword that makes him immortal" buissnes and farsight might understandably hold a bit of a grudge over the innumerable tau lives lost to the imperium. while i think the two would probably get along great with a clean slate, with the baggage they have it might be more of a "who dies first" situation

Sicarius is just a loyalist Lucius

​@@Hasshodo Want to see him and Lucius fight so I can see who will got respawn.

Well those space marines have the battle tactic of run into machinegun fire so I doubt they really cause that much of an issue for them

There is no Geneva Convention in the grimdark of the future

Me too!

They aren't all genocidal space fascists or the servants of literal demon gods. In addition they actually have a notion of a better future, they're as likeable as 40k gets.

Thanks so much! Really nice to read that kind of thing

That would be cool, or a showdown of him Vs all the students of puretide

@@SandmanofTerra I don’t think guilliman is the type to jump into battle and neither is farsight

@@henryheavy8044 I dunno for some reason he went into combat with fulgrim, basically full well knowing he would lose. And then loses

@@SandmanofTerra At least girlyman tried i guess

@@SandmanofTerra Guilliman fighted as follow: Lorgar, Angron, Konrad,Fulgrim,Magnus,Mortarion. Sure, he lost two times he is still fierce fighter if necessary

This... Would be pretty dang cool, but... Seeing as how farsight is such a good strategist, he'd probably immediately notice that submitting to imperial rule would likely lead to the annihilation of the enclaves, as the Imperium would immediately notice the AIs the Tau use. That, and the farsight enclaves do not represent all of the Tau in the Galaxy. Besides, would the Imperium even let them keep their own tech? I'd bet EVERY techpriest in the Galaxy would be either creaming their lower limbs or overheating in righteous fury. They'd probably confiscate everything the Tau have, then call it all heresy in a week and never give it back.

@@samuelevans738 Or if Farsight rejects the offer and Guilliman sends a real crusade on his enclaves then what would the farsight enclaves do? The Tau was utterly defeated by the "damocles crusade" which was not even a full crusading force and the only reason they disnt get wiped out by the Imperium is that the Tyrannids suddenly appeared in the Macragge system. Also the farsight may have beaten the old tactics of the space marine but he has never faced Primaris marines and Custodes in combat.

Personally I would be interested in seeing a Roboutian heresy kind of thing where Guilliman seeks to unfuck the imperium and uses the FSE as a tool towards that end kind of mirroring what the Emperor did with the AdMech.

~look it up, the Imperium would let xenos join if they submitted to human rule)~ tried to look it up, didn`t find anything of it online.

@@peste2574 Horus Heresy era, the Imperium would allow Xenos live under Imperium rule if they submitted to human rule. What kicked off the xenophobia was the fact they, along with many abhuman races, decided to take advantage of the Weakened Imperium post Horus Heresy. The newly minted Inquisition therefor decided never again and was pushed by them.

Glad you enjoyed it!

If he did we would not have the imperial truth as some dark secret. He probably would have just ran into chaos and let horus gather the primarchs. Two of them were already forming empires and the rest except for angeron had full control over their planets. It's impressive how diffrent it could have been if they had horus be the first among equals, instead of the emperor trying to run everything.

Can’t really understand your point but if you’re trying to say the Emperor is incompetent then you’re somewhat right, though he basically does nothing for the imperium he is able to answer a handful of prayers and he also did save Girlyman in his fight against Fulgrum and Mortarion but slay ig?

Enjoy your down votes and up votes fighting it out.

Sounds a lot like heresy to me.

The imperium wins all the time anyhow, they just don't like it when space marines get knocked down a peg

The emperor started with two worlds, the tau can't even beat the imperium despite having ai that can out think a 300 year warrior and outpace him as well as make 300 year old SOLDIERS look like idiots, as if they never ever fought this type of enemy...

Writer 1: these tau suck why the fuck would they even work well against space marines? Writer 2: i know. But we gotta sell them toys. Spit out the plot armor

@@badfoody If anything Tau would do great against space marine especially the melee chapters.

@@shadearca ai that can beat a space marine in melee, astartes took over the galaxy with 2million units, Why can't the tau do the same? Cause there's clearly no comparison other than plot armour, the same reason we hate the ultramarines. Any idiot who claims we hate tau should also remember we hate the ultramarines too, just now the favour of plot armour has moved to tau.

@@tarektechmarine8209 what are you even talking about? Astartes took over when they were guided by demigods and even then the big E did a huge amount of heavy lifting. Eg when Horus and his boys were getting wrecked by orks and big E saved them. Also one again you forget that it was not only the spaces marines. It was tens of millions of other humans with the full support of the mechanicus of Mars without which the space marines would not survive even a year.

@@badfoody it should be writer 1, wow these tau guns pretty much invalidate anything except running over them in numbers, what do we do Writer 2, we ignore the guns until they get near melee range so we can bullshit enough of them into melee combat that it doesn't feel like a complete wash

Lol all tau stories are like that. Except tua stories make the space mariens usless. Like cmon since when does a the best humanity has to offer are getting 1v1 by relitivly cheep troops in mass produced power armor. Sorry just lazy writting and kinda made me hate tau stories for cheepining Mariens.

​@@40klegion78 that would be because the Tau have far better equipment and tactics than the majority of the foes Space Marines fight. While the Orkz and Tyranids have quantity the Tau have quality in excess.

@@anthonyrodriguez8788 Thats true, we are just desagreeing on the effect that would have. In the lore they are 1v1 space marines which are the best the empirium can provide. Also in lore the best thing the impirium can call on are dark age tech which would blow Tau minds in how advanced it is. What im saying is that the impirium should not be able to feild lots of space mariens anywhere but when they do it should always have a major effect on the Tua. do what you want with guardsmen and tanks but space mairens should not be that easy to kill.

@@40klegion78 fair point on the Space Marines, I guess I'm so used to seeing Astartes jobbing everyone else that I don't really object when they finally get jobbed by anyone besides other Astartes. As for Dark Age tech, whenever I'm comparing tech levels between factions i don't really include Dark Age tech, if for no other reason than the fact that it's non standard technology and the Imperium doesn't really understand it anymore. I'm well aware that it's far more advanced than anything the Tau use.

Fighting tbe furries would be infinitely easier they r3t4rdedly just run in the open at their enemy the perfect foe for the tau

I would say that The Farsight Enclaves would absolutely body the Space Wolves, but they have the second thickest plot armor of any Space Marines Chapter, second only to the Matt Ward Ultramarines.

Blue, a master strategist, mocks arrogant human orders of space knights. Farsight is Thrawn!

It would probably take a fair bit longer. The imperium got as far as they did because for a lot of the great crusade they wearnt colonising, but annexing already colonised worlds from survivors of the dark age of technology. Whereas the tau don't have that same head start in terms of population density and galactic diaspora

They do survive on some serious plot armour
