The more you know
Try doing every harlequin faction I know you've done it before but it was a bit rushed
@@V.B.Squire why would he shave every harlequin faction?
@@Hellspooned2 Shave?
@@V.B.Squire Yeah, you replied to the message where he goes on about tau shaving. ;)
Hello Majorkill,
Would you kindly make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy? Pretty please? Thank you.
Ultramarines see a battlefield on a planet with blue trees and blue dirt - "finally brothers, our dedication pays off."
You need glasses, brother. That is an ocean.
*Chad Tau solos Ultramarines.*
Tau: "Your right, it did pay off. For me."
They’d love onderon
@@Hellspooned2 Good thing they can hold their breath
@@brandonjew1397 Is that why they are blue? :D
Majorkill still needs to do a “How Bruva Alfabusa and TTS shaped 40K” video.
Yes, please
YES
Maybe start with that many people started their journey into 40k with this series.
Who?
*BRUVA LIVES STOMP STOMP*
A blueberry is a blueberry and they all taste the same
- Wise Tyranid Philosopher
For Tyranid, everyone tastes the same.
Except Necrons. They cause them diarhea.
A tyranid Philosopher sounds fascinating. Maybe it'd be a patriarch or magus? They could get visions from the nid hivemind and translate that into philosophical writings.
"I have never betrayed anyone in my entire life!" - Commander Farsight, the Char Clone of the Tau and his sword wielding red mech goes 3x faster.
Too bad he isn't blonde though
so... who's amuro?
Shadowsun. @@vaporsouls6752
@@vaporsouls6752probably Shadowsun
Honestly, Au'taal is one of my favorites. Mainly because the T'au from there are canonically a bunch of chill and easygoing potheads that other T'au often view as being a bunch of lazy slackers but they just dont care and kick ass just the same when they have to.
What pieces of lore would you recommend if I wanna look into them?
@@dimadobrik4516 Unfortunately. just like anything T'au related that isnt Farsight or Shadowsun there isnt much tbh. They are mentioned once per Codex and they pulled up in the Taros Campaign but aside from that there isnt anything more in deph.
As a Tau Player I appreciate this video.
"Bu-but the Tau cannot even melee!" - Captain-General Little Kitten being bitter that his ex-girlfriend Commander Shadowsun left him.
Commander Farsight- hold my vampire sword
Kitten: [my tau ex-girlfriend ] is not canon !
@@Beneko11-2Fandom:"We will use the power of collective WAARGH to WAARGH into existence. "
I love how the Tau battlesuits being vehicles means that they can shoot all their weapons like pistols.
The ultrachad that is aun'shi while sitting on a mountain of ork corpses:"we cant? My friend, you must be confused"
Coming soon, *Chaos Tau* and a whole new bunch of not only colour schemes, but new models for GW to sell.
Honestly if they DO go and make a renegades and heretics codex chaos xenos would be neat.
Maybe they can just ally-in units from tons of other factions? The "hodgepodge pie" of factions.
I bet Chaos Tau is just communist China im early 50's.
Right off the bat, a sick picture of a Tau Crisis suit?
that was more interesting than just another space marine video
tau need more love (especially farsight enclaves)
Did Timmy join the Tau or become a warp god? You be the judge.
Paul Harrell, is that you?
Timmy suffered a terrible accident and should be forgot.
I said the line Mister Inquisitor please let me go now.
@@mitchmitting102 Too late xeno lover! *Shoots him with bolt gun.*
I play tau because my introduction to warhammer was the tau fire warrior game
FR i wish they would do another fire warrior game that plays after the ending
Mine was a buddy of mine in college gave me some fire warriors and drones because I liked gundam. I have not turned back since
Vior’la Sept actually uses an all white with some red markings color scheme. The one that’s on current Tau box art. The Farsight Enclaves use a reverse of that color scheme all red with white markings to honor Farsight home sept but separate themselves from the Tau empire
Make a video ranking how hot each faction is
WOT
.
Like... by temperature? Please be by temperature.
Tyranids are S tier
@@Alexander59059 *By what "hotness" metric?*
Video idea: All the races that have joined the Tau
Can we see this flat world? James Workshop: "No."
A video of the top ten community made wholesome moments would be great
Warhammer's The Exodite got me intetested in Tau Navy. Please make a video about them, their strategy and battles they fought against Imperium Navy.
@majorkill A video on each of the primarch’s favourite food would be cool. Also a video on how each of the pirmarch’s would react to being implanted with the butcher’s nails would be cool as well.
Isyander and Koda did that first video a month ago, if you don’t want to wait!
Hey majorkill, it’s me the one gal you mention in every intro. I just want to let you know that I always skip the manscaped sponsor. Cheers!!
Sneaky way to tell him you're rocking the bush😉 I see you..
Shadowsun is from Vior'la
Her full name is as follows
Shas’O Vior’la Shas’len’ra M’yen Sha’serra
weird to think that her home sept being Vior'la is new lore, as in most recent book new, strange that it had never been brought up before as far as I can tell.
@@555tork
In one of her early books, there was reference to her also being from T'au, but also that was just an old old ancestral home. So the way I see it is, her family originated from T'au but she is from Vior'la
Ke'lshan is my favorite sept. They had it rough, but they prevailed and the black/yellow coloration looks cool. Perfect for the hardy warriors.
Will you make a video on each legion's best accomplishment/battle/victory? Counting unification wars, crusade and heresy.
Perfect timing as I'm looking at the tau for a new army! Thank you for the great content
Cheers, was looking for a list of Septs and there colours for a project based around a dark pallet with a dash of brightness, Ke'lshan here we come!
This video comes out a week.and a half after I was thinking about doing a Farsight Enclave army and found out the Tau had a bunch of Septs with unique color schemes figuring Majorkill would make a video. I'm not only glad I waited, but I didn't know I wanted a Sept with a color scheme based on one of G-Self Gundam 's alternate color schemes living on a pancake world. Thank you Majorkill.
Fun Fact: Commander Or'es'Ka from Dawn of War: Soulstorm was from the Fal'Shia sept, those red boys!!
I honestly like the colors Tau and Farsight Enclaves, classic browny cream and firey red. But the black armored ones are so cool. Black just looks cool.
Always good to get some tau lore
Like to see the Tau get some support, they have a lot of potential. Would like to see how they’d handle a primarch, cool to see a video where you go over that scenario.
I love the tau colour schemes but I CBA painting them other than the white standard or Farsight Enclaves
DA BLOO BOYZ AR FUNNY!!! THEY TRIED TO SPEAK LIKE ORKZ BUT DONT KNOW HOW TO SCRAP!!! THEY DO GIT FINGS LIKE “AIMIN” HAHAHA!!!
Lore wise, the Tau are one of the most under used factions. They could easily be an interesting threat to the imperium in their area (eroding imperial authority through diplomacy and offers of protection to worlds cut off from warp communication/travel). Sadly, GW seems happy to just keep them as a meme whipping boy to show off how cool the imperium is.
Don't get me wrong, I love space marine books and lore, but much like the Votann these guys absolutely need more lore and books.
I am planning on introducing Tau (specifically Gue’vesa) being on the planet my PCs live on in their next session. Very useful.
So human auxilia?
Sweet video, love battling Tau on the tabletop
Superb video as always @majorkill.
Could you make a video dedicated to the Navigators, the major houses, their politics, relation to the overall Imperium and factions,
Thank you for all your work
New grey knight video. Be like Nike, just do it
Hello Majorkill,
Would you kindly make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy? Pretty please? Thank you.
Just received the calendar. It´s gonna get a nice place in my office.
Need a video on Imperial Compliance during the Great Crusade
What if omegon showed back up in the setting. What would happen, how would guilliman and the lion react? Would be a pretty cool video idea
Didn't know you were a jiujitsu bro! Oss!!!🤙
Yo! I would love a series about lores based on color schemes.
Leagues of Votaan would be a great video.
Great video!
I want a top 10 video of all time made on Warhammer 40k. So like the top 10 videos ever made about 40k across all creators. What do you think the single best video on CZcams about 40k is?
I can’t believe u did a Tau color schemes video before a dedicated Death Watch/ Ordos vid. One that actually talk about different watch stations, Watch Masters, so on… or any of the other Ordos in depth 😢
speaking of sharp blades for balls, where is your Farsight Dawn Blade replica in the background ?!?!
Vior'la is white with red marks, and Farsight Enclaves is the same colors reversed.
World Eaters having a good time? Splendid *Mr Burns hands*
7:34 gives off
"Don't talk to me or my son ever again."
Also what sept do each of the legendary commanders come from?
Farsight, Shadowsun, and O' Cais
A video on Valerian and Aleya would be pretty cool.
Andras be straight up Helldivers colours
Thanks Manscaped.
I'd like to see a video about Human war gear before the primarchs and space marines and such, we all know about the first legion or thunder warriors, but what tanks did they use? What transports did they have? Etc
Would love to see a video about the 8
Fan fact: Mu’Gulath Bay was originally called Argellan by imperium. That’s where the paints name comes from.
Day 45 of asking for a dedicated series of videos detailing in depth the Lion El'Heresy
Attempt number 43:
What if the Primarchs were found in the order of creation.
JOIN ME MY BROTHERS!!!!
Not much change + we don’t know the creation orders except for the Lion
@@ttterg6152 yeah we do
You should do more videos about the ai uprisings and wars. Im not a warhammer fan, never read one book, but have been loving the vids bruh. 😎 might have to pick up a book.
Suggestion for the next video: How does the loyal space marines chapters view each other. What chapters are friendly towards one another, have some rivalvry, admire martial prowess, are viewed as crazy etc. Thank you and post more Jiu Jitsu content aswell.
I remember when I was a kid I was on vacation with my family and we walk to a toy store where they sold warhammer stuff but I at the time didn’t know what warhammer was but I remember looking at the Tau fire warriors and thinking they looked like clones troopers. I loved Star Wars when I was young.
MK has waited long enough. It’s Xeno time
The Tau's mechs have Monoeye Superiority.
Bright silver and purple. My new color scheme for the tau ethereal guard.
Can you please do a video about all the Chaos Warbands?
Video idea what if the emperor of mankind wanted to be worshipped as a God and had created the esslarcy the imperial cult in order to defeat chaos
Shadowsun is also Viorla so both named commanders are from their not just Farsight (source is that she has viorla in her full name which all tau have the sept name in their full name in the most recent book Shadowsun: the patient hunter)
Love me tau and well I tried to do my own with purples reds and blacks... I was trying to make halo covanent color scheme. It didn't really turn out how I wanted but still fine.
Hay i know it was a week back but someone made and shot an bolter gun and told you "suck it majorkill"
wasn't the Onagar Gauntlet invented on Dal'yth Sept during the Damocles crusade? and the ghostkeel was invented on N'dras as well
With the Tau names being a lot harder to parse, it would have helped to throw their text names up on the screen. Just so we could know the spelling, and maybe guess at the pronunciation ourselves.
good to see my old army getting attention
Majorkill: Dal'yth is good for diplomacy but not so good when it comes to fighting.
Dal'yth: Casually stops the entire Damocles Crusade to its tracks before reinforcements even arrive.
On the contrary, I’ve actually gained more friends being a tall player. Thank you very much.
Hey love your video majorkill but you missed the tau sept that fell to Khorne
Majorkill!! Brother, the sound at 2:50 onwards sounds SO much like Last of the Mohican theme (although it is noticeably not identical obviously!). Is your Editor a pro or do you have a decent sound guy? Got to know because score either way!!
Nice video
You're going to be in the next calendar right?
You might be able to explain why the tau have different color schemes, but can you explain how they walk without tripping over their massive mega clumsy cow hoof clod-hopper feet?
Or better yet, can you explain why shadowsun is the only tau in the universe with a nose?!? 😂
that appears to be a new thing for female tau newer female tau heads have the same thing.
10:32 My conversion army is a sept on the borders of farsight which the Tau are a minority and the Ethereals are extinct in their own government. I've made multiple alternatives to the same units but I don't change states or skills just names. FireTeam units are also a stable for almost each squad but no changes to rules gameplay wise, just fluff. My army is both conversion based but with the focus on auxiliaries/diversity rather than Tau. I've armored my kroot I added gue'vesa, skaven, gors, Sslyth, turians, skinks, and even squid sloths(krootox conversion).
should do a bit of lore on 2nd 3rd edition last chancers
Maybe next edition we get every forge world.
8:05 you Mixed things up with the vior‘la Sept i guess
Can you do a video on what if some exhibits from Trazyn museum escaped
Hoping one day you return to your sanic roots
I am currently working on losing all my friends. For the greater good.
Hey man big fan, whould love if you could make some more nepolionic (words am I right) models.
Genuine question, is the Tau the 40k equivalent of the Lizardmen from AoS?
That image of the Tau with the sword and pistol goes hard, would be cool if they had a Sept that was different from the others and focused on melee combat. Producing swordmasters or dudes with glaves or some other oriental shit
Day 2 of asking for why imotekh the stormlord is an absolute beast
finally my BOIS !!
Fresh video game ideas -- a Raven Guard stealth game, a Custodes bloodgame game, an Ork survival/crafting game, a marooned, damaged dreadnought must singlehandedly enact a compliance, a pre-Lion monster-hunter game on Caliban...
I think caliban has the coolest backstory of any planet in 40k. Well, maybe not terra. Idk
turn-based tactics like Mechanicus but with Tempestus Scions or Inquisitorial Stormtroopers (or T'au Fire Warriors for that matter)
I want to see a alternate history where the lion landed on catachan instead of caliban
Thanks bro, this is legit so cool ❤
Not ravenguard, imperial assassins. Imagine assassin's creed playstyle but 40K.
Attempt Number 11
Could the Istvaan V loyalist legions have held Terra?
If Chaos forces were are at the same strength during the siege as it happened in canon
Vulkan is present at Terra so could close the webway quickly, saving all of the forces who died during the War in the Webway for use in the siege (Custodes, Imperial Guard, Sisters of Silence etc).
Due to this, the Emperor would also be free to command and fight in the siege
Ferrus Manus is alive and all Iron Hand/Salamander tech is present for the loyalists
Raven Guard and Corvus Corax conduct strikes behind chaos lines, similar to how the White Scars operated.
Vulkan can't die and Ferrus can level mountains making them a good counter to the Traitor Primarchs
Could the Emperor, Vulkan, Ferrus and Corvus have killed Ka'Bhanda, Angron, Mortarion, Horus?
Yes
how about lore of the spheres of expansions
Farsight Enclaves Rule!!!!
It would be great for setting a limit on just how strong spacemarines can be if there was an ultra small spacemarine chapter that was all about practicality and being elite with fairly average physical traits and skills. Their achievement all gotten not by derrindo, grit, bravery or even skill but by pure practicality in the theater of war.
Imagine an 8 ft tall demigod in a giant ghillie suit that uses an ultra specific fighting style where they use the ghillie suit to hide their movements in melee, use espionage, actual combined arms and other real life military tactics. Their chapter motto could be "heroism is the failure of high command, there are no heroes here."
How can the Tau do all that great cocaine when they've got no noses. But wait, maybe they've all done so much marching powder that their noses have all rotted away (which is a thing, apparently). Majorkill adds to the lore. 👃🍬
"The tau thought the genestealer cult was interesting and didnt really care..."
Im sorry what. Why would you just let a gsc hang around like that
