So Tau are now allies of convenience with Necrons, who massacred them in pretty much every encounter, but not with any Imperial armies?
Great narrative right there GW.

That's so funny. All imperial forces are still BB I'm glad to see, and non others except eldar and dark eldar. Given the moaning from many people about eldar and dark eldar some people who don't know fluff very well complain about that at the moment. It's going to make some people so angry.

That chart makes way more sense, even though I am a bit confused about that Necron line (what is the logic behind it  ?), and daemons + orks ?

Unbound allows you to do that. It is basically the only way unbound can be something else than pure cheesy gak : pick units in random codex to use as count-as.

Do we have the full vehicle pen table, or just know that a 7 is explodes rather than a 6.
I'm fine with it as long as 6 is still wrecked.

Except on every encounter with Necrons the Tau have been slaughtered. They have never fought together. The closest it has ever come is a Necron army saving a Tau sept from Tyranids. The Necrons then massacred the entire population of the sept world anyway. That story is from the 6th Ed. Tau codex, so is newcron fluff. That is not allies of convenience. Allies of convenience is more akin to Space Marines and Tau. They both have a sense of honour and respect for the others abilities and, if a greater threat arose, could work together to defeat it. They wouldn't ever be friends but they can play nice as long as it is convenient.

That allies chart is a huge improvement, and I particularly like the two Eldar factions remaining BBs. It is a bit odd though that GW decided to make the ally chart much more fluff appropriate, while same time butchering the fluff with daemon summoning...

Or you could use your Guard psykers to summon your daemons?

No they would not. 'Suffer not the alien to live!' Space Marines hate all xenos. Why Imperium is AoC with the Eldar is a bigger mystery...

I could. But the thing that attracted me to Daemons in the first place was the Monstrous Creatures. I'm not really interested in playing IG and summoning a bunch of small daemons.
I wanted to splash in a few vehicles and some cultists as guardsmen. I'll probably try out a daemon summoning factory now. I need to get a closer look at the rules for each ally type to see if I still want to add some IG. I'm just glad I held off on purchasing any models until after 7th dropped.

Maybe don't ally your Tau with necrons then? Sides they already are Allies of Convenience in the 6th ed book I'm looking at it right now. You won't see any more Tau/Necron armies then you already are.
