OK page 61 in the tau codex....Ulthran is sympathising to the Tau...I'm wondering
if I can build an Eldar, Tau Army. I think it would work actually...What do you think?
according to somewere in the BBB or in the codex if you want to use and allied army that wouldn't normally be allied (Tau is very friendly and has been know to have been allied with orks, eldar, even chaos forces in battle so i don't think it quite matters) that you just need your opponents permission.
on page 51 of Tau codex column 2 mid column "these Tau have fought alongside Kroot(unsurprisingly), human renegades, eldar, the accuresed traitor legions and even orks.
In the 40k in 40 mins rules (the eye of terror updated version) that I downloaded from the GW site, it has an alliance grid, it says that Tau may not ally wiht Eldar under any circumstances.
(But who's going to play a stupid rule like that? )
but thats just for 40K in 40 minutes that way one faction wont be too powerful. the BBB states that you need opponents permission to use any allies (ie Blood Angels and ultramarines, eldar and guard.)
most things in the BBB is agreed apon by the opponents such as the terrain set up points per army and can this guy see that guy. now i'm not quite sure you can use the ulthwe tau alliance army in a tournament but everyday gaming you just need your opponents permission.
The Tau that fought alongside Orks, chaos, etc is specifically the Farsight Enclave. This is not indicative of the Tau as a whole, but merely the peculiar action of a small renegade sect.
that doesn't nessacaraly mean tau can't fight along side them. Heck necrons came and helped the imperium in the EoT why can't orks help out Tau? say against nids or something.
You guys should be happy, at least you can ally with SOMEONE! Try making up fluff for allying my Tyranid Hive Fleet. I bow before anyone who can find a good logical reason my Hive Fleet should ally with someone
Just kinda a question i have... but where in the tau codex does it say that tau where allied with orks... Cause i had reason to belive that tau hated orks beyond all reason because orks a natualy chaotic and the tau want order not choas...
they seem to be talking about commander farsight and the renegade conclave, hey i guess if you trade good weaponry and money to the orks, you could probably buy them and own them for weapons dependancies.
But commander Farsight i though has a great hate for orks thats the reason hes all alone in the first place... because he lost his etharal while battling orks.....
What do you mean corrupted.... Tau can't be possed by the warp... so that means they don't know the meaning of chaos... all they have is this little perfect little wannabe happy society... with order NOT CHAOS!!!!
so I don't see how farsight could ever, EVER ally with orks...
