Tau are mega popular and orks have a huge ownership. They are nearly tied neck and neck for 4th spot but orks have like a small decimal edge. They may as well be tied for 4th it's so close, but that was years ago and the greater good has only exploded and expanded at every turn. Both of them weren't too far behind the next most popular faction either so you know. Top tier factions in terms of ownership. Then add in the fact that it also has Nids and Genestealers and it's going to sell more than the chaos one simply due to the raw amount of players one book covers.
Space Marines are S tier. Then IG > Chaos > Orks > Tau are A Tier ownership. Then Eldar lead the B tier in ownership and everything drops off after that.

It's definitely not worth skipping on an index for your main army/armies, as the individual codices will be on a 3 month release schedule like with AoS. So it could potentially take a couple years for your army to get an individual book. I'd say $15 US lasting that long is more than a fair deal.

Probably all of them. I have bits and pieces of armies from all factions, and people around me also play a variety of things, so I'm happy to get ALL of the Rulez!

Facts are chains that bind perception and fetter truth. For a man can remake the world if he has a dream and no facts to cloud his mind. |

Probably all of them. Main rulebook first, then the rest.
Price dependent purchase, however.

This is definately going to hurt my wallet, as I have Dark angels, world eaters, steel legions and tyranids. Book for all of them + rule book.
