Wondering about 3 things:

1.) Is the Enclave made up of only members of the Tau Species or do the other subjected species/allies of the Tau Empire (Vespids, Kroot, Humans, etc.) also number in their ranks?

2.) Has anyone in the Imperium made contact with the Enclave? Do they even get the distinction between Farsight's group and the Tau Empire?


3.) Has anyone bothered to question the fact that Farsight has lived so long? Like.... anyone at all? No one is finding this even the least bit weird......or Chaos-y? (well then again the Tau don't even have a good concept of that).

1) farsight had all of those alien allies but they died out in war in the old fluff, the new codex they have access to alien ally units

2) no, the imperium don't see the difference between red tau and other colors tau; via the montka- when the farsight enclaves dropped in, the tau on the ground were in awe, where as the imperium does not see the distinction.

3) certain tau commanders and ethereal can live a long life extended by science just like the imperial youth juv for their important members, though farsight has wonder that himself, if he ever find out it's the sword that's extending his life, he would end his own.

It's his sword that lengthens his life, adding to it for each one he kills.

Well from our pseudo-ominicent perspective - we know that.

But the folks working/living/fighting under Commander Farsight don't have a clue. Heck, Farsight doesn't have a clue.

I just found it a little weird that no one bothered to question why "The boss has lived so long" so to speak...

People who ask about Farsight generally disappear after a while. That's why nobody does that
