I wouldn't call one more stubborn than the other, to be serious I don't see either side joining one another. The Tau problably aren't going to decide that the Emperor is the meaning of the Greater Good any time soon, giving you a hint right there.
However that is one thing that has always stricken me as odd about the Tau, aside from the Etheals(spelling please), no one really knows what exactly the greater good is. I mean I guess for all we know, it could be about the Emperor. (all though it isn't)

Right, i know, each side has there flaws. But the thing about not knowing what the greater good is, was my point. I supose the greater good is the advancment of the tau race and the other allied races with in the Tau empire. That seems good to me. But you know how there are break away enclaves of Tau right ???? What if one enclave decided to fight for the imperium and call the Emperor the greater good ??? It could happen in fluff. There were imperial world that worshiped tyranids. Why not Emperor worshiping tau.
Any way im out for now ttfn all. I'll be back soon. Try not to give Dart and Redd grief. wink

However when I leave tommorow, and Isis leaves Monday, grief it up members! Dart loves that! whee
All though I'll get in one last point.
I do not believe the Tau would break off like that, or at least break off and stil claim they are part of the Greater Good. Unless it goes through the entire Ethereal caste, I don't beleive it ever passes as being part of the Greater Good.
I for one still find the whole thing fishy, I don't know...Dart and I made up this whole theory a while back, it's odd, and takes some explaining so...

well I'm off this morning to head down to a 2,000 point Tourney....No sportsmanship award, no best painting award, it's stictly for winning all your games......and Geuss what? Titans, Armored company, and Experimental Rules, ARE allowed....Unfortunately I don't actually own any Titans.

I can't see that being to much fun then. Why go to the tournement when anything is allowed and you don't have to be a goods sportsmen. Seems kind of the reverse of Warhammer 40k.

DartStriker I can't see that being to much fun then. Why go to the tournement when anything is allowed and you don't have to be a goods sportsmen. Seems kind of the reverse of Warhammer 40k. Actually, It was pretty Entertainging, True I got my Butt kicked becuase I didn't cheese-out my list, but You do take pride in wounding An'grrath the Unbound (Giant Bloodthirster for those who don't know.) It had, WS10 BS 3 Str.10 T. 8 W. 8 I. 5 A. Somewhere between 5-7....don't remember....then a 2+ save, a 4+ Invul, And anything that ignores invules, he still gets his invuls.... xp Winged....and...yeah....888 Pts. But either way it was fun. And I will post up the Scenarios we played....very interesting they were.

my solution to him (An'grrath the Unbound) the first time i fought him was broadside barrage. 9 TL railguns killed him off on turn 1. which made every one go wwwwha-whhaaa WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!?! then i blew out 2 land raiders (2 detachment 4500 game) and their like ALL HAIL BROADSIDES!

jeoc my solution to him (An'grrath the Unbound) the first time i fought him was broadside barrage. 9 TL railguns killed him off on turn 1. which made every one go wwwwha-whhaaa WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!?! then i blew out 2 land raiders (2 detachment 4500 game) and their like ALL HAIL BROADSIDES! Yes well not every army has a Str. 10 AP 1 weapon. And Not every Tau Army takes 9 railguns....thats just wrong. Well then again with 2 Detachments.....n/m......And of Course Necron Plyons are pretty painful. ( Str. 10 Ap 2 Ordanance, and has living metal. So....difficult to kill.) I'm just glad I didn't have to face a Tyranid Heirophant. Oh my God, not Even 9 railguns can kill that in turn one. The TO(Tournament Organizer) Brought one just to show it off. The thing takes up a table Quarter on a 6' X 4' Board. rolleyes But it wasw all still fun, as all the models were very cool to see, and it was cool to watch them kill things.

well against large titans i use all 18 of the broadsides in a 2 detachement force
makes mince meat out of warlord and emporor titans almost everytime. only thing that ever lived was a very suddenly immobilized emporor titan that couldnt shoot nearly as much as it should have been able to.

Yesh, it was great. I posted a battle report with pics in the fanfiction forum. It's a bit strange, definatly not a starndard game. But it certainly worked well for two war mongers looking for a fight. mrgreen The battle report also has an awesome pic of the beach we where at this weekend. cool
