Well, the Emprah has made it pretty clear that all of Mankind is to purge all other races out there (to prevent from being enslaved) yet there are still plenty of instances where Imperial forces ally temporarily with Xenos scum.

Also, Khorne and Slaanesh are bitter rivals in the great game, yet I have seen many a list which includes Skulltaker and The Masque.

All things considered, the idea of Taucrons is not all that foreign, besides, they did come together in DoW Dark Crusade...

The Emperor worked with, or at least tolerated, the Eldar.

Orks are naturally resistant ot Chaos, because Chaos tainted Orks are un-orky.

Norks, possessing the natural spiritual buoyancy of the ork and the firming, deadly resolve of the necrons, can be said to be resistant to choas, being both buoyant and yet firm, the ideal NORK!!

Also, the tau are very non-warpy, being not in the least bit psychic, so also they'd be just like the necrons if the necrons wanted a new type of pariah but smaller, perhaps for a scouting pariah! If you combined them all, you'd get Norks Nau!!

Norks Nau!

Norks Nau!

That is the second or third dumbest thing I have ever heard.

It was almost funny . NEeds a something more though... hrm... dunno what.

No... If they ally with the firm but buoyant NORKS, they'd be Neldar! .... or Elrons.... or Lrons...

Norkdar sounds good?

Well have to see what flawless unargueable and totally legit fluff the next DoW brings.

Tau and Eldar is still crazy talk as far as I'm concerned and has no place on this Necrau thread.

Somehow I think this thread has just about run its course....

If I hadn't been so convinced about tau and necrons, I would have voted for NORKS in a heartbeat <3

RiTides, who in their right mind wouldnt have. But the evidance supporting Tau and Necrons is just to concrete.

I couldn't agree more, whilst Norks are totally fething balls to the wall awesome

The bridge is nearly complete

How about chaonorkdarnidig templar-wolves?

Squats and Chaos. It only makes sense that there would be Chaos Squats with gigantic hats. They would, of course, have the assistance of Grotlars and Bull-Zoats. Being master engineers, they would naturally be entrusted with all manner of gigantic daemonic cannons.

So is Inspector Gadget a Flayed-One?

You guys are getting out of hand. Norks and Nau are viable and realistic choices, this is just shenanigans. Lets try to keep on topics.

Yeah, taking it a bit far now.

Remember concrete evidence is required that an alliance is possible like the Necrons and Tau as mentioned already.

Personally I'm a Necrau / Taucron man myself but I am partial to the idea of Norks. Real men like Norks.

Maybe let some of this 'evidence' grace this thread ?

Something NOT self made but available from GW would be welcome.

We da Norks, MANLY Norks, da Norks in tights.
Yar!
We roam around space looking for fights.
We da Norks, da Norks in tights.
We rob from da Emperor and give to da Tau, that's right!
We may look like Orks, but don get us wrong or else we put out your lights!
We da Norks, da Norks in tights
TIGHT Tights
Always on guard defendin da Necron's wrights.
When yous in a fix just call for da Norks in tights!

GW Made Dawn of War Cannon

Necrons and Tau came together in Dark Crusade.

The similarities between the cheekbones of Tau Ethereals and Necrons is unmistakable.

Perhaps the space pope is the outsider...

I'd like to point to the ally chart ( apoc rulebook, page 198): where Necrons may ally with chaos, DE and orks, plus necrons, but should not with Eldar, nids, the IoM
and surely not with Tau.

Cool, there is a cannon in Dawn of War
Must be like the rouge traders people post of regularly.

Could you specify where? As the WH40.000: Dawn of War - Dark Crusade I own, seems to lack this Necron+Tau=BF ......
Or was it directed at multiplayer games?

Really?
Lets have a look at some Models.
I don't think those fish faced , standing at hooves and having 3 fingers are close related to those skull faced, humanoid skeleton robots.

Double post.

I think Space Marines and IG should be combined for the imperium, as well as the others imperial factions...

Since its happened alot before, I say IoM and Eldar. Or IoM and Tau.

Thats merely a suggestive tool and not a concrete "none shall pass!"

I feel that this picture says what I cannot.

Haha, Actually Necrons and Tau would be awesome...

@ Aretak: No one?

Correct Answer:




Sounds like a last comment from a xenos unaware of imperial firepower

That ally chart is for games of apocalypse, we are talking about normal 40k. The list does not apply... (To me, all that says is that it would not be game balancing to have Pylons and Mantas on the same team)

Look on the back of your CD case. It should have a star that says: "Two new races: The Tau empire and the Necrons "

This should be proof enough.

Don't forget Blood Angels and Necrons...

So a GW expansion does not apply when its content ruins your argument.

Fine, shall we look for the Tau and Necrons = bestest friends/allies point youre trying to make?
-Tau and Necrons are separate armies and you can't play them at once.
-The back of the case shows Necrons killing Tau. Somehow unlikely for allies?
-Obviously human players are free to ally in multiplayer games, but this really should not count as proof.
-The campaign is focused at one of seven armies to field, but you can't ally with necrons nor Tau there....
I am sadly still waiting for proof of your point.
