Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

yeh but the oher galaxys didnt have uber humans capable of even more destruction than the nids so the nids are gonna struggle.

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

The Nids are endless, humans aren't, that's it. There's only gonna be one winner in the end. Even the orks could kill off the imperium, if they would but concentrate their efforts instead of fighting each other.

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

nids arnt endless orks maybe but nids all u have to do is wipe out the hive fleets and the norm queens of each fleet

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

also the marinesall u need are apothecaries to bring em back by simply replacing the gene seed.

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

Nids ARE endless. Sure you can wipe out the ones in this galaxy, but more will come, always. Nids are effectively the only ones who can defeat orks, as they destroy all life on planets, including ork spores, no other group could do that because they need the planetlife to survive, except chaos, but they dont have the manpower or the resources.

Marines take years to develop, and it's something like every 1 in 20 that survives the process of transformation, gene seeds do not grow quickly enough to increase the population of marines against their death ratio.

alrite, tau don't suck, sure the imperium has 836918569831598513579 soldiers, and sure the marines have uber armour, but i collect tau for the tabletop game and lemme tell you, i have whooped nids, orks, marines, gaurd, necrons AND chaos berzerkers... the tau do suck in close combat but they aren't exactly easy to kill... during the Nimbosa crusade, there were 4 space marine chapters fighting the tau, FOUR!!! as well as bazillions of gaurd. anyways, about the tau spliting into different "empires" i haven't heard anything about that but there is a "rebel" faction of the tau, led by Commander O'Shovah... thank you for listening to my speech about why tau are not the pushovers u guys think they are

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

YA, TAU just plan suck they a sooo bad in combat and r only good on open boards unlike the imperium witch have alot of veriaty i hve beat tau with my armys every time ived played them

P.S ozone i bet u have never whooped nids in a battle enless it was on open board

the FurtherFarSeer

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

alrite, believe what u want but i have beaten nids on a board with lots of cover, all u have to do, is get crisis suits and stealth suits pop out and gun those pesky termagaunts down, and then u set your fire warriors and broadsides up 6 inches from the table edge, that way u won't be in combat in the first turn

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

Where ever you go 100,000,000 warriors each is an interestiong question considering in the codex astartes it states that a chapetr should be have 1000 battle brothers, including the scouts of the tenth company, yet the tenth company may be larger than the standard 100 man company for the purpose of rucruiting. Also ther are roughly 1000 chapter as of the 26th founding in 738 M41.

But even those thousand marines are more than a match for any force that may out number them many times over. Oh yeah the imperium has the Titan Legions and well they pack a real punch and a half.

Re: the Imperium v.s. Tau
 

i still got money on the imperium, the fact is tau suck and GW knows hensey there making a new codex, Tau r just too awfel to be in the world of 40k!
