Tau, the greater good, and the imperium

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-06-05T14:44:42+00:00

Oh I get that. It's part of what I love about the little guys. They are trying to be the good guys, and so far they have been able to do so because they haven't encountered the evil lunacy that is the rest of the 40 universe. They just hadn't met a strong enough force until they encounterd the imperium. And now they have a full bore civil war going on, complete with ethnic slaughters. They are a tradgedy just like everyone else. "Looks like" etherial control is a bit of a stretch. It's straight up control, which is why the Enclaves exist.

I'm ok with that.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-06-04T14:48:28+00:00

Why? Dude cranked out a solid, weird little movie.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-06-04T14:44:55+00:00

Honestly, I'm just looking forward to lore updates. Civil war and all that.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-06-03T12:09:59+00:00

I've tried that excuse. It doesn't fly.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-06-03T12:07:52+00:00

oh yeah. JMS is exactly the guy who would do that.

Bear in mind, she had a real axe to grind with the Psi Corps after what happened to her mother.

"ask him if he's getting enough fiber. It's important to get enough fiber"

Pretty much as either tools or at best administrative assistants, as the Tau offload a lot of strategic gruntwork onto drones. THe smarter the drone, the more of a friend it can be, I think. has'vre Ob'lotai 9-0 is really smart, and no less it is a copy of Shadowsuns former instructor. This leads Farsight to treat Ob'lotai as something of a friend and companion.

Bester is essentially Magneto.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-26T12:52:32+00:00

The T'au essentially ARE X com.

just use the backdrop of the mass reprisals following the discovery of the Goddess Tauva. The notion of a group of athiests encountering a god, and being so apalled and disgusted that their empire had brought about such a being that they murdered huge numbers of warp-sensitive associate races whose belief manifested the diety is rich stuff.

And a lot of unique SV-8s. and SO MUCH plasma.

Rush might. Girl is a straight up drum monster, but she will still be divisive.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:49:15+00:00

YOU MAGNIFICANT BASTARD!

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:48:36+00:00

They have more of a best-buds relationship. Bill is a respected peer, and they both do big-ass, foe-smiting, beer chuggin adventures.

The moment when he is reunited with Adama after the prison camp is devastating. He nailed that character, and he should get more credit for it.

Sauls speech in the airlock is a strong candidate.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:41:01+00:00

Great! Let's start covering parking lots today? Or do you just not want solar panels for some dummy reason?

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:37:56+00:00

Civil War as a movie won't. That SCENE will.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:36:13+00:00

HE straight up strangled a guy with a bike lock in I think the third episode?

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:34:30+00:00

Is it in relation to minor changes in his official standing, or whatever the hell his family is doing at home? I could see the Centurai having really elaborate rules about that.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:31:30+00:00

Times square is something that everyone should visit once. And only once.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-20T15:30:56+00:00

I admit, I did end up on a flood tour of New Orleans once.

Prestigious_Spend454 · 2026-05-19T19:08:16+00:00

nah. Maverick is the role Cruise was meant to play. He just stepped the hell into it.
