Errr... I believe Underdweller is actually a lady. Let's keep things civilized.
That's ok, ladies can do that too... but I expect that the only thing I'll be doing with your list after the game is giving it a brief smirk before we move on to our next victory. :D

@Mike the Pike: Are you calling me fat? Oh, wait I get it now. Well, that's ok, as long as we're being mature about things :lol:

I suppose it's the best I can expect from someone who is (apparently) on the opposite side of the alignment chart from me http://sputnik127.deviantart.com/art/Wa ... -142888032

@Underdweller: Certainly not a reference to your good self. From the "The Imperial Infantryman’s Uplifting Primer" published by the Black Library:
Xenos experts have discovered that tau are descended from bovine herbivores. They are not predators and fighting is unnatural to them.
Tau have udders, short tails above the base of the spine, and they excrete enormous amounts of methane gas, especially when stressed.
They chew cud for approximately four hours a day. When involved in this disgusting habit their metabolism and reflexes slow down, making them very vulnerable to attack.
Tau are herd creatures that panic easily. Their usual response to stressful situations is to either wail and lie face down on the ground with their hands over their heads, or run around in circles hoping to confuse their aggressor.
In battle, the tau are disorganized and cowardly. They fight from distance and their poor aim makes this tactic ineffective.

No worries, Mike! I figured it out after a brief Google search.

For the longest time I, and probably most other folks , thought the Tau were some sort of Bipedal Fish people. I think the fact that all their vehicles etc are named after aquatic creatures threw everyone off. Then all of a sudden we had to drop the sushi and sashimi jokes and switch to beef :D

BTW the Kroot are still a bunch of psychotic chickens though :D

Ohhh, a Twilight reference for the Blood Angels? I guess hat makes us...

Vampires in Spaaaccceeeeeeee......

Oh, wait, I just made fun of my own army.

And Tau are not descended from bovines, they are descended from goldfish! Ferocious, killer goldfish!

Okay Dungeon & BloodByam, if you are too ashamed/intimidated to tell us what armies you`ll be bringing, I`ll refer to my earlier post for a possible team name for you guys: "Target and Victim"...or you could just call your team, "Ms. Tree"

Team Bushwhackers, much like the Ballistic Skill: 2 of your army, your trash-talking is rarely on target.

Danguinius...For the Greater Blood!

I can see why there was confusion; they actually look more like fish than cows to me, being blue with no nose.

Hmm, this is actually not that far from the truth...thank god for Targeting arrays and Marker lights :)

Tau also have hooves. That's where the cow ideas come from.
