the tau have broken from their oppressors hold now their cadre fights for the galaxy against their oppressors.

they have formed new trading bonds

founded new arts of war

And forge them, warriors, in fire.

i call upon the tech priest and adepts of you all to help build a lore-friendly "Fire Cast" not bound by those wizards of old

I stand for my team,
I hold the line, they follow me,
not because they have to,
but because they choose to

I bled on worlds that did not want are words,
I heard my friends last words leave there lips
They claimed we where forged in fire!
We where to bring peace to this universe of war
And they Lied!!

Now I walk the field of battle
not to bring peace
not to unite the worlds
I walk the field
to hunt!

There lies will stop
and we will be the ones to silences them

The great thing about the tau is that you can take their design in many directions

great modelling overall. the arm proportions don't suggest tau to me, however. perhaps jokero XD. the back pack is a really nice design and the lizard skin under fabric might suggest a lizard green paint job somewhere and, perhaps, the naming convention for this new, jumptroop, tau: feathered serpents, perhaps?
