I'd like y'all to take a look at this.
Yeah, that does look a bit like the T'au Caste logo. Just a bit. But wait, there's more. The game that this is taken from, Marathon (by Bungee for Apple) is set on a ship orbiting the planet "Tau Ceti".
Make of this what you will.

Marathon was one of Bungees first games. It dates back to the era of Doom.

-Mykal Expanding on this point, the logo was ALSO included by Bungee in their number one title "Halo". Anyone with a copy of the original halo, look at the box art between the A and the L, at the center of the grey on the box. It's staring back at you.

DarkElf27 OMG! The greeks stolez the word Tau! ZOMG! confused Honestly, people, do you have anything better to complain about?
It is a letter, not a word. And they invented it as part of the Grecian alphabet, if my history serves me well.
Uh, no, I don't. I figured that it'd be interesting to talk about how close Bungee and the Tau Empire are when you look at them and was lucky enough to get the front page.
I wasn't complaining, merely making an observation.

The term "Heavily inspired by" fits better for the lawyers.

-Mykal Hindu symbol. Which way it goes is a little sketchy. But, yeah, it means peace and good luck I think.
