*ahem* to all the Tau haters
Wait out the giant battle with Kauyon tactic, taking a bunch of worlds as all forces will be drawn back to Terra (duh)
Even the original battle for Terra with Horus and the Emperor took YEARS to finish, and that was with only 2 races as opposed to 13ish all fighting each other.
Tau capture worlds, build up forces, and kauyon it out until the other races finish their giant battle. Then tau come out of nowhere and steamroll the remaining army.
Greater Good anyone?

Then the main tyranid fleet arrives with trillions upon trillions of bugs. They push the IoM back to the Sol system and are met with fierce resistance as they fight for their birth place. Then after the Swarmlords many experiences meets the Emperor. The two fight for what seems like hours before the swarmlord falls. Then when it seems that the Tyranids can be pushed out, the swarmlord is reborn and wins because he learned from his first failure and the IoM in finally defeated and the Tyranid race moves on leaving the Milky way a lifeless star cluster.

Tyranid fanboy much?
Mate the Emperor would oblterate the Swarmlord completely. Nothing would be left of the Swarmlord not even the ability to reincarnate. I highly doubt your theory.

Melissia you can't forget about the Adeptus Custodes and the Inqusition.
And many many skiatrai. And let us not forget the fanfluff!

Sounded ok till the end huh? And yes, I was meaning it to be ridiculous. I love the Imperium

And who doesn't?

How about Gork and Mork unites the orks leading them on the best WAAAAGH!!! destroying and ravaging every planet along the way before they finally reach terra. (sorry had to say something to the "orks will never unite" post)

how about not. Now go back to your cave for you idiocy!

The final battle would be the Necron Aramdas returning.


Nids, Orkz, Humans, Tau, Eldar, wouldn't matter. All would die.


Nothing would be able to beat them in Space if they ever came back in full force. 5 Ships invaded the second most guarded planet in the IoM and 2 landed on the surface. While inflicting decent damage against the defenders.

A couple thousand ships wold walk through the IoM and everyone else.

A few thousand Necron ships vs. a few MILLION Imperial ships (which includes Navy, Marines, Rogue Traders, Mechanicus, etc...). Plus the Eldar fleets, plus any potential Orks, even Chaos would be stuck fighting the Necrons ships.

The final battle won't take place between all race on the same planet. Maybe the IoM will make its last stand on Terra against Chaos, but no other races will journey that far for no reason. If ever the 40k universe moves to a final conclusion, war will errupt across the Galaxy. Your beloved Tau would be utterly destroyed. Just because the Tau choose to sit back, doesn't mean that the other races will just say 'oh well, the Tau just want to wait, we'll leave them be'. A final confrontation would involve the full might of all armies. You think your tiny little speck of a race could stand up to even the Eldar? What about when the Necrons fully emerge, in their trillions? That's an army that outnumbers the Tau about 50,000 to one, with vastly superior technology and would attack the Tau no matter what their 'doctrine' states. In the end the Tau wont have 'years' to build up their armies, pitiful as they would be. They are so weak, its likely they wont make it to the end. If they do, they will be destroyed, by any one of the races.

Necron Armadas = Dead Empires.

I wish Tau could do something on a scale to fight the Crons. But fact is, the Necrons would walk through everyone and nothing would stop them.

They laugh at the Imperiums pitiful fleets and take mild losses compared to what they inflict. If 2 out of 5 ships landed on Mars, the sheer might of the Necron fleets would bring the galaxy to it's knees.

This is perhaps the reason they have opted to not return, they are waiting for a larger harvest.

No,. Orks are united under one purpose.

War.

That maybe what the all strive for, but it's well known that Orks will fight each other quite easily when there is no other enemy around. Aside from Chaos, they are the least unified force in 40k. In the past, they have been known to unite under a particularly powerful Warboss, but they soon fracture when there's not a constant supply of enemies before them. It's rare that such a horde even as large as the Waaagh! Thraka emerges, let alone a force encompassing the entire Orkish race. Thraka is known to be one of the most intelligent and ruthless Warbosses ever encountered. His horde is as vast as to nearly conquer Armageddon. What kind of Ork would be able to firstly, subjugate Thraka himself, then all the other bosses. Secondly, somehow gather a race that numbers in the countless billions from across a galaxy. Thirdly, how would he coordinate such a force? If they moved as a whole, how would they do it in a timely manner? How would he command a force so that the inevitable stragglers wouldn't break up and leave?

Who's to say that Ghaz isn't the one who'll unite the Orks?

Nothing in 40k would make me happier than to see them and their corpse-god ground to dust by any number of the other races.

Maybe, he certainly fits the requirements. I would have thought that there are similarly powerful and cunning Orks out there in Orkdom. There are many Warlords that rule Empires larger than the Tau, but he's the only Big Boss that has persisted in rules and in the Universe as a constant threat with greater ambition than ruling their areas of space. I just believe that they need an Ork thats even bigger and more cunning. Like an Orkish Swarmlord or and Ork Emperor, a physical embodiment of the Waaagh! Maybe the Ork Wierboyz are doing the same as the human shamans of Old Earth, coalescing in the psychic signal created by all Orks to form a supreme Ork.

Now would I like to see the Imperium survive the main 'nid invasion? The answer is no I would not. My post ranking system is Tyranid for a reason.
