On the Eastern Fringe of the galaxy, a new race has emerged to challenge the might of the Imperium of Man and the other established races in the 41st millennium. They are the Tau, a surprisingly advanced race that has organized itself around a single guiding principle known as "The Greater Good."
By setting aside individualism to serve the needs of society as a whole, the Tau have developed and expanded at an astounding rate. In just over 6,000 years, they evolved from savannah-dwelling primitives to space-faring colonists.
This unhindered progress has given the Tau confidence that there is no obstacle that their society and their science cannot overcome. Indeed, they believe that they can help the rest of the galaxy find their way to peace and prosperity. All the other races must do is devote themselves to serving the Greater Good.
Not surprisingly, the established races have other plans. To help "bring them around," the Tau have invented some of the most lethal ranged weaponry in Warhammer 40,000. Their basic troop type, called Firewarriors, are armed with Pulse Rifles and Pulse Carbines that can punch through armor like a comet through a dust cloud.
Pulse weapons would be devastating enough, but the Tau also have power armor and anti-gravitic vehicles galore. Their Crisis and Stealth Battlesuits have unrivaled mobility on the battlefield, popping out from behind cover, firing an thunderous barrage, and disappearing again before the enemy can react. The Tau's Hammerhead Gunships pound opposing forces to bits while their Devilfish Troop Carriers reposition Firewarriors for better shots. At a distance, the Tau can lay waste to all but the hardiest of enemies.
Yet, the Tau disdain up-close fighting and are unskilled in hand-to-hand combat. They have hired the mercenary Kroot to make up for this lack, but the Tau still try to avoid close-quarter engagements. Despite this limitation, the Tau are an emerging force in the galaxy that the established races cannot ignore.
While a relatively young race, the Tau have made their presence known by becoming one of the most effeicient and powerful military forces in the galaxy. Fresh from their successful campaign to conquer Kronus, the Tau are seemingly without rivals. Their powerful technology has laid waste to countless armies, but it is their unique ideology that proves to be their most powerful weapon. Fighting for what they call the Greater Good, the Tau sweep through the galaxy, seeking enlightenment and well-being, lends itself well to the ways of combat. Tau fighters are extremely determined in their reasons to fight, giving them exceptionally high morale.
Two such allied races are the Kroot and the Vespid. Having joined the Tau Empire, the two alien races now fight for them, giving the Tau army a wide array of unique attack capabilities. The Kroot are fearsome warriors, adept at melee combat, while the insectoid Vespid are skilled at quick raids and assaults, thanks to their speed.
While Tau units are most effective utilizing their rifles from long range, their unique relationship with the Kroot and the Vespid ensure that the Greater Good will be spread throughout the galaxy.
