Yeah there is a reason why they call themselves the Tau Empire rather than the Federation or something else. It is very much a Tau come first society and are better than other races even if we let them live.
A special case.
Yes.
No, those were civies. They had jack, shit, and that's it to defend themselves with. Not even an 'all' was in the budget.
Right up until you refuse to join.
Also important to deny them the resources there since they are counting on new resource worlds to feed their new industrial world they are trying to build up into a Forgeworld.
Can we have some vat born nav's grown? Or have a research action for stable nav genes?
This and that are two different scenarios. The Kil'drabi put their ship colonies, that were severely out of date, on the lines to defend us. The Yeeni wants to, quote, 'bring the fight against those who caused them so much pain and death.'
Just wanting to fight on its own isn't reason enough to be Kin, yes, especially when it's against those they have a grudge against. But it can be a start and we'll see from there if they do prove themselves. So, we're just gonna have to take a risk and see how they do and how far their dedication will go.
If the Lamenters aren't going to be willing to invade the Neonites with us, would it be worthwhile to spend an action on the below research instead of helping complete the Lamenter fleet action?
How long before we
Huuuurgh I hate War Zone Damocles. What you may not know, if you're talking about the same event I am, is that the Culexus walks in and starts scrambling drone AI too with blankness alone. The Culexus was 'slipping in and out of reality' to dodge everyone's attention. Given how many new supernatural abilities they hand the Culexus I don't think it's solid enough proof to call it plot armour, especially when the greater battle over Mu'galath Bay involves the Obsidian Knight manifesting as an avatar of T'au hatred and the end of the fight ending up exterminatus'ing half the planet and basically ending the Third Sphere expansion.
They can also help cover the other side of our territory. Right now it looks like most, if not, all of our ships are going to be busy kicking in the Neon Protectorate's balls and other fleshy bits that they can reach. The ones not used for raiding or invading are going to be busy garrisoning our backlines like Itani and possibly Brotar. At the very least, the Astartes can make sure that we don't get jumped from the End of Line.
I hate to say this but 3 ships for only 63 lost? That's a great ratio and one I would gladly trade any time though we may want to look into improved bombers and fighters given we rely on them so heavily.
This is from a song about Poseidon it has to be I was just listening to it earlier today.
Oh. I thought each founding could only have 1k max.
Who said it would have to be different tech? They could be integrated with our military and they'll likely be using our equipment too, plus we have time to properly train them.
Thing is, Tau were never that Good to begin with. They were always a strict caste society and explicitly forbid the mixing of said castes.
