				<title>Tau and Tyranids, why do they always seem to come hand in hand?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Something I've noticed more and more is that it seems that if a Tau or Tyranid player has more than one army, they have both of them. Why is that?<br /> <br /> I'm guilty of it too, I've got two armies, and they're Tau and Tyranids (started with Nids then got a small Tau collection that has now surpassed the bugs). What is it about these two armies that seem to make collectors get them both?]]></description>

				<title>Tau and Tyranids, why do they always seem to come hand in hand?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Havent noticed the trend myself but some obvious answers are<br /> <br /> Technology VS flesh<br /> Long range pewpew VS (supposed) hand to hand lethality<br /> Past fluff battles they have had<br /> New race VS old intergalactic predator.<br /> <br /> In other words they are two diametrically opposed factions which can be fun to play against. Especially the ranged VS hand to hand aspect (which mind you 7th has made waaaay one sided but hey).]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Not seen it myself. I dislike Tau. The Nid players i know don't have Tau, and the Tau players don't have Nids.<br /> <br /> Patterns vary in areas...]]></description>

				<title>Re:Tau and Tyranids, why do they always seem to come hand in hand?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Both Nids and Tau are closer to  'hard scifi' rather than fantasy races in space setting so I guess both these armies are likely to appeal to sci-fi fans. Not to mention that high tech armies vs bio engineered monsters is a common trope in genre literature and movies, they are natural adversaries. ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Maybe the opposites attract theory? Mecha vs bio. Sit and shoot vs run and stab. But here are similarities. Both armies rely on synergy and support for eachother. <br /> <br /> After all the hive mind believes in a greater good too.... ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ It's tempting.  Having nearly no guns in my entire Nid army worth a damn and not being able to get into the Assault without hemorrhaging units hand over fist, Tau are appealing.  Ignores Cover, Twin Linked AP2 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(123);'>Str</span> 6 Spam via a Buffmander and squad is pretty friggin good.  Long range artillary type units are also very attractive.  It's a switch that fits in more with the current Meta and has familiar elements.]]></description>

				<title>Tau and Tyranids, why do they always seem to come hand in hand?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Perhaps some Nid players are subject to the "if you can't beat em, join em" mentality. After all, Nids are nigh unplayable in the current meta, with 2 strong lists and a few variants that are actually competitive, while Tau has a new book and some kickass rules to boot. Or, the absolute opposite in playstyle while still being distinctly sci-fi armies is another cause. Personally, I play Nids and don't own a Tau model, and I haven't seen that trend in my local meta, but I could understand it and I'll admit Tau suit armies appeal to me. ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ My primary opponent is a Nids/Ork player. It was as if fate was meant to be. <br /> <br /> <img src="/s/i/a/c944477abc92c1c101da485e07ff06d8.gif" border="0"> <br /> <br /> I like it actually. Makes it feel epic and fluffy. Funny thing in all those topics "what are your favorite races" ect. Mine was Tau, <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(27);'>DE</span>, Necron, Tyranids, and Orks. In that order. So yes if I was ever mega rich and had time someday I would hope to have my own Nids list. ]]></description>

				<title>Tau and Tyranids, why do they always seem to come hand in hand?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ This is me. Kind of. I started with Tau, but my second army is going to be Nids. It's exactly what people suggested, both of these armies are more Sci-fi than fantasy and are opposed enough to make sure they feel distinct from one another. ]]></description>

				<title>Tau and Tyranids, why do they always seem to come hand in hand?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Many players choose a second army to do something quite different to their first army. Tau and nids are generally opposite ends of the spectrum (though now both are about spamming shooty monstrous creatures), so that could be it, but I can't say I've noticed a single player here with both tau and nids who doesn't already have 10 other armies too.]]></description>

				<title>Tau and Tyranids, why do they always seem to come hand in hand?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ For me it's Kaiju vs Jaeger, lots of "big" units. Also aesthetics and fluff. The more "realistic" level of the ultimate evolutionary alien species vs cutting edge scifi mechas is more appealing than <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(533);'>IoM</span> "Technology is heresy, lets use this zombie brain as a cpu even though we don't really know how it works thingy..."<br /> Other than Tau/Tyranids my other choice would be Eldar/Necron as they are in my view, fluff-wise,  the other direct opposite but on a bit more "ancient ones" -level, think Shadows/Drakh vs Vorlons/Minbari in Babylon5.<br /> <br /> ]]></description>
