Dante is over 1000 years old and the rest of the BA have the ability to live longer because of their genetic twist. And the SW and BT have no intention of listening to formal SM doctrine resulting in obvious differences in the size of their armies. The next time you try and correct someone, I suggest that you first figure out what you are arguing about, otherwise you will be made into a fool. And I have no idea where you are getting this clone stuff?? It's called a gene seed and it has nothing to do with cloning you just sound ignorant to common 40k knowledge.

There is, however, no need to be rude about it. We're talking about the background for a game of science fantasy toy soldiers.

I think that in the next RuleBook GW should present IoM as an empire of several million worlds. The fact is that fluff was established while official science didn't have any statements about other planets that orbit stars. And since the warfare changed and GW added some new fluff to "modernize" it's army's do you think that they sould do the same thing with number of Imperium's planets?

That's kind of the point, I think.

That the Imperium is incredibly thinly spread.

And why all the Tau trolling?

What do you mean should? More likely than not, it already does. The problem is that outside of the High Lords of Terra, noone really has any idea on the vastness of the Imperium-- they could have fifty million worlds and yet most people still think they have only a million.

Hell, just read Rogue Trader-- even the passageways between planets aren't well known in many places..
