you guys know that you can tell Games Workshop to go gently caress themselves and use the same rules with pieces of lint, right? They don't even make good models anymore

I’m pretty sure the The war of the false Primarch was more interesting and far bigger than the Babdab war but no one ever talks about it. Not even Chaos who would be boasting about it all the time but don’t for reasons.

The Tau are great when they're absolutely befuddled NATO commanders shooting dark eldar from extreme long range and wondering why all the kroot who eat dead humans start chanting incomprehensible poo poo like "The Greater Good Protects" They are less fun when they get turned into "The Imperium but blue" and Im not yet sold on "big titty blue hoof jobs"

I can't take the greater good seriously, and the tau by extension, because of Hot Fuzz

The joke with the Tau is that in any other sci-fi setting they'd be the bad guys, but in Warhammer 40k they look like the default good guys. The NATO comparisons are also actually on point, as I said before their doctrine and weapon playstyle with emphasis on range, drone warfare, combined arms and utilitarian equipment makes them closest to modern day first world militaries, while everyone else tends to be various flavours of anachronism and/or sci-fi bullshit. Aesthetically they also have a lot more in common with sleek and utilitarian modern sci-fi designs like Halo. A lot of the appeal is basically 'The only ones in this galaxy trying to act like grown-ups'.
