Empire forever!! Chaos be damned!! (It already is, but not everyone will accept that until you show them your bolt pistol in their face.)


Kill the mutant, burn the heretic, purge the unclean!!!!

There are just three simple rules to follow: If I charge, follow me. If I retreat, kill me. If I die, avenge me.

"A Templar Knight is truly a fearless knight and secure on every side, for his soul is protected by the armor of faith, just as his body is protected by armor of steel. He is thus doubly armed and need fear neither daemons nor men."

@Luna: What would you have them do? Kiss the civilians boo-boos better? They were there to kill the enemy and move on, every second they wasted at one spot meant that thousands of lives were lost elsewhere.

@Fallanir: Ah, you are starting to see the light! Now if only you could drop these heretical notions of xenos love...

The Tau don't hate the Imperium.
"Strongly dislike", then.

Obviously they wouldn't care about them if they weren't in conflict with each other, but they are, because the Imperium doesn't want to submit to "The Greater Good" and the Tau don't want to be exterminated. They hate the Imperium as much as they hate anyone else.

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

There was a earlier discussion on this and someone made a good point on why an allience could never happen.

Basically, for the most part, it isn't in their best interests.

The Tau:
From the Tau culteral perspective, they gain little from an alliance with the imperium. Their modus operandi is expansion, and currently they are doing a good job expanding into the imperium by getting podunk worlds to join the "greater good". If they had an allience they could no longer add imperial worlds to their empire, and may have to give some they currently have back. Plus, they are so tiny, the imperium defends them from alot just in protecting their own worlds.

I'm sure they wouldn't mind an alliance with the Eldar though, but that isn't going to happen because...

The Eldar:

They get NOTHING from an alliance with the primitive little blueberries. Remember, the Tau are a TINY little empire. Their technology is primitive compared to the Eldars. Plus, the farseers manipulate the Tau into doing what they want without an alliance. So, no alliance there.

The Imperium: again, not interested in their technology, and they do a very good job getting the imperium to fight their battles without having to deal with an allience. Not going to happen.

They are dying and concerned with surviving. They will not go and die for somebody else, and no one else can offer them any technology.

Finally, due to the Eldar mindset, alliances are doomed anyways. Sure you might manipulate monkeys into solving the termite problem in your forest (or the killer banana problem in your forest), but allying with them? You don't ally with monkeys silly. Just like you don't ally with horses or dogs or tigers. You may find a use for them, but an alliance?

The Imperium:

First of all, the xenophobia of the imperium is not just due to dogma, superstition, or chance. When things started falling apart at the end of the dark age of technology, all of humanities "allies" turned on them like vultures. Their automatic xenophobic hatred of anything not human was learned over the course of thousands of years of alien predations. It has been VERY deeply ingrained into the human culture, and isn't changing any time soon. Now from a more logical perspective:

What do they get from an alliance with the Eldar? Well they wouldn't use their technology, so that is out. And defense wise it is also a no go. The Eldar presence in the galaxy is miniscule compared to the imperiums. A few scattered craftworlds are not going to make a big dent in humanities battle over a million of worlds. And there is no way an Eldar would put his/her life on the line for a human anyways.

The Tau: Technologically...well nothing is happening there. First of all their culture would not allow them to use Tau tech, and secondly, Tau tech is arguably inferior to Imperial (I know I'm going to get flamed for that one). The Ad-Mech HAS more advanced tech than the Tau, they just refuse to distribute it to the hands of laymen.

But beyond that an alliance with the Tau offers NO military benefit. The Imperium consists of over one million worlds, the Tau a few dozen. What could the Tau possibly offer the Imperium in an alliace? The Tau continue to exist only because the Imperium has bigger fish to fry. Their one of my favorite races, but the Imperium is in a whole different league.


The three are just to incompatible. All of their goals conflict with each other.

now, we all know that an alliance with the eldar and tau would go wonderfully for the Imperium so long as we have 2 specific commanders for the imperial forces. First, we'd need that Capt. from the Extra Heretical "Blood Ravens Trilogy" of books... the eldar lover. and CREEEEEEEED!!!!

here's how it works. Blood Ravens captain "allies" with the eldar, Creed "works" with the Tau and eldar, and at the most opportune time his TACTICAL GENIUS!!!! takes over, and the Imperium wins out again... 2 birds with one stone, so to speak.

Even IF an alliance could be made chaos cant be beaten since the very races that battle it also spawn it.
To defeat chaos the whole races minds would need to be altered so that they dont use any negative emotions.
In other words, humans would need to be changed to become inhuman in order to defeat chaos.

I was just pointing out that the Eldar are not the most masculine race, though in your defence internet sarcasm isn't always obvious.

The Inquisition are still space nazis, but I agree with you on them being a necessary evil.

And your lusting after a xeno race that is made out of lesbians... Well, let's just say that your necessary evil will fix you up. It is for your own good.

Oh my gosh!!! This is getting really funny!!!
And my point was, Emperors Faithful, that if we can get Eldar and Tau to fight for us, there's that much less fighting we have to do. And they will kill more of our enemies for us. We could utilize thier forces to take out the real tough guys like Necrons and Chaos.


Kill the mutant, burn the heretic, purge the unclean!!!!

There are just three simple rules to follow: If I charge, follow me. If I retreat, kill me. If I die, avenge me.
