>>64701056>gets his stupid worlds exterminatedIts personal, xeno scum.
Shi'ur.With this most recent achievement, fate has in a single stroke, marked the decline of the Imperium and spelled a new era of wondrous prosperity and peaceful galactic dominance for the Greater Good, which promises to firmly stand in sharp contrast to the historically bloody ascent of the Imperium and the cruel subjugation it brought to the humbler xenos of the galaxy. With the blessings of T'au quantum direct-current Ethereals, quantum drones and quantum enhanced railguns will be the instruments with which the T'au affirms its noble stewardship of 42nd Millennium galactic politics and offers the non-Imperial worlds a different option; a T'au'va alternative to the depredations of Imperial leadership and the opportunity for a more equitable and dignified Greater Good.
>>64701153It would thought. Space communism would be better for the individual imperial citizen than techno serfdom.
>>64701137>Imperium has exterminated less Tau worlds than Imperium worlds>>64701163Almost anything is better than than the life of your average Imperial citizen.
>inb4 a bunch of copeReminder that the Tau are modeled on NATO per word of god (and matches it in combat doctrine).The Imperium has like a million different inspirations but the closest country it resembles today is Russia, right down to using poorly equipped meatwaves as its main tactic.
>>64701137>gets his stupid worlds exterminatedFun fact: Thus far both instances of the Imperium using exterminatus against the Tau both involve them using it on their own Imperium planets to delay their advance. Exterminatus isn't like nukes, it's not a WMD you lob at the enemy. It's scorched earth you use on your own territory when you're losing.

>>64701237The Imperium mobik fears the dronechads
>>647012483 Day Imperium SMOs be like:
>>64701221Pretty much everything the Imperium does starts making a lot of sense when you notice that they're largely based on the Russian Empires (both Tsarist and Soviet). Burning down their own shit en masse in an attempt to slow the enemy down is their entire shtick, with mixed results.
>>64701221Akshully the Imperium do use Exterminatus offensively. Its just that most battles in 40gay happen in Imperial territory what with the whole "beleagured shitty empire" narrative the Imperium has.
>>64701260>Damocles Gulf: when you forget that you're not supposed to believe your own propaganda
>>64701318Sure but to actually use exterminatus you have to control a significant amount of the space around the planet (since the ordinance can often be intercepted otherwise) and a lot of exterminatuses can be blocked by sufficient defenses (Necron tomb worlds won't care much about a virus bomb, Tau worlds have powerful shields for their cities, etc.)
For your consideration.
>>64701189>billions of Imperial worldsNot every world is Necromunda. Most are comfy, but they don’t make for interesting books so they don’t get written about unless they get invaded
>tau controlled space is so small that The Imperium as a whole basically ignores itThe who?
>>64701422>Most are comfyThey're not. Ultramar is considered to be unusually prosperous by Imperium standards and it had a life expectancy of 35.
>>64701422even if that is true (its not) the vast vast majority of the Imperiums population live in hive worlds and forge worlds which have absolute shit tier conditions that would make living in the most overcrowded pajeet slum look like a paradise
>>64701422Nulore is kinda trash but they've really gone out of their way to crack down on this. E.G. making aggri worlds explicitly horrible and not relatively unpolluted feudal worlds.
>>64701427This is just Imperium cope desu. The Imperium has sent Titan Legions, Space Marine Chapters, Assassinorum Execution Forces, and irreplaceable archaeotech WMDs against the Tau. These are rare resources, and the High Lords of Terra themselves were aware of their deployment.
