Warhammer 40k TAU Blow me Away

[TheAdept1302]

Nice vid. I can do that on easy difficulty too.

[ultrajd]

The Tau are the only Xenos race that I like.

[krossyboy]

TAU are a small race but there still the best

[evan32698]

I don't care if this is a Tau video, Tau have nothing on Flash gitz....And I'm a tau player XD....So OP....

[Krootcrusader]

number1



[MrPittsteelers9]

is this dawn of war 1 or 2?

[Krootcrusader]

thats what kroot are for .put them behind ur and charge them into the orcs once they r in close

[kingkong381]

@lagraf05 Ha I know what u mean Tau r annoyin. One of my earliest games was against them. This kid had them and I was still kinda new to playing the tabletop game.I'd been into the lore for a long time so i thought my SMs would have no trouble killin them. Turns out Tau can immobilise dreadnoughts very easily (if the dice favour them) and having a tactical squad hide behind it doesn't help the missile launcher fire back! The lesson: Fluff does not = crunch. Still don't think tau fit 40k tho.

[AVPYautja]

well, what can i say... i play with Tau in DOW and they KICK ASS. I mean the Skyrays are superb with their barrages cripling the enemy like cookies. Furthermore, combine it with Crysis + flame, Hammerheads and stealth teams for any vehicle and u'll have an almost unbeatable force (trust me, even close combat can be... not very convenient against crysis, excepting grey knights and korne berserkers and even if they do, the barrage can do the trick as well as some fire team shooters).

[kmzriot92]

OH YA COMANDER SHADOWSUN

[QualityTwinz]

3:00 onwards that is why I collect TAU

[suppermoppy1]

LUV THIS SONG LOL

[RifleJay]

the kayoun (patient hunter) will almost always triumph. The trick to playin tau is to keep ur distance wif ur pulse rifles, plasma rifles and railguns and to get ur battlesuits and if u have her, commander shadowsun up close. They have 5 strength and 4 ws. They will pwn. I know cos I play tau and I use that tactic. Try to get ur pulse carbines just at their range so that the enemy can't get close enough to assault.

[commanderrex112]

tau are often put down but i cant see why. Not daemon prince , terminators, necron warriors nor anything can walk up the middle of the battlefield while the tau are firing at full capacity laying down 9-10 railgun shots and 50-60 strength 5 weapon shots.

[HelloMrLol]

I take it you havent seen what the Tau can do, properly managed. The Space Marines are easily used, but using the Tau requires skill.

[LordCommissairElric]

Arrogant xeno filth.....

[WholesomeBurn]

2:00 Hehe... those guns tickle mr. tau commander

[purplecurtisimo]

holy shit. people, stop agruing, the points sysem is there to make sure you use strategy and deploy your units properly to destroy an equal force! stop being such arrogant douchebags.

[runescapeman1649]

what maop is this?

[skye101112]

Melee units cant even get close and 2 fire warrior squads can destroy 2 dreadnoughts in range combat

[billGHH]

@skye101112 not necssicarly 2 helfire dreads can kick the fire wariors and well if blood thirst and avatar count as units they can get close enough to do enough damadge to kick everything except skyray gunships

[SepikRoque]

How can you zoom in the game? it is a mod?... i ask because i can't get the game camera so close...

[falco1663]

@SepikRoque use the scrolling thing on your mouse- and i think holding alt or something changes your angle, haven't played in a while- a bit rusty.....

[CoolAlvin1]

The Tau are the most advanced race! They suck at melee but make up for it in range! they are the most EPIC ranged troops

[dadumbazz]

tau = blue balls

[Porty1119]

@Gladeatorkid Try telling that to the Krandor 116th Airborne. Vulture+ Kroot=lots of 6+ saves to pass. Wait a second, my rocket pods ignore those! XD

[cadianshocktroop]

fucking baddass clip good work man

[Yupyuk]

Dawn of War II FTW tho :3 I like em both. Been playing 40k tabletop 4ev :D

[98lawrence]

wow!



[euansmith12]

Tau all the way

[walmartbrawlcam]

Tau:

1. They may be the youngest race...

2. They may have piss-poor melee

#. But god help you if you stay in their line of sight for more than 3 seconds

[HeavyGundam7]

Tau are very poor in close quaters so its essential to keep the enemy bunched up so they get mowed down by large amounts of fire. Also, try to use the static element of you force (hammerheads, broadsides etc) as bait. Make the enemy go after that thinking they could take out a huge amount of fire power easily. You can then take them out with the mobile element of your force (Stingwings, piranahs, develfish troops, battlesuits etc) with reasonable ease.

[ElexionExonAvalon]

wow nice you showed them :)

[thaSHUFFLEpro]

gay the best army is phonies am l right

[Xsavier122]

Nice video. I love the tau. What game is this?

[robotallion626]

nice one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Slaymeding]

send some drop pods with a dreadnought and 2 group of fully armed space marines and they are trashed. Well Tau is... +Stylish +Their commander is a tank on its own +Has multiple paths to follow +Kroot can feast on its enemys flesh and replenish their HP +The only tanks that can make rivalry with Imperial Guards tanks +Mass product them with multiple barracks and youre ready rock -It's getting a hell of time to get the ultimate fireteams -A bit weak at close combat at first -HQ is weak at first.

[ChukN0rris]

That was cute *sniff*

[zacret]

beautiful video, if only it had been high resolution !

[CzHellsinght]

tau canot tuch the colnes of ooooorks

[violentMarshmallow]

all the orks needed was a squiggoth and 2 squards of flash gitz, win.

[canadaislive]

why not 2 squigoths and 12 battaljons of shoota boyz with medics and big mac and war boss in groups

[dogmuffens22]

no can argu that tau r the best! TAU!!!!!!!!!

[gladeatorkid]

@deathbone1801 that may be true but the imperium of man is inferior to the might of TAU! :)

[gladeatorkid]

TAU are the Youngest race in the universe and the most technilogical.

[deathbone1801]

@gladeatorkid ah but they r confined, The Tauempire is tiny compared to the imperium of man

[Yupyuk]

@gladeatorkid Sadly there not the Eldar are much more advanced but they have had millions of years in wait untill slaanesh wiped most of there race. There a dyng race. Thus tau are considered are more potent threat having xeno allies and are more common to attack imperial settlements than eldar. Eldar only attack if its to stengthen there craftworld. Tau are still awesome. They are extemely advanced for the amount of time they developed.

[bonepyre]

Tau = Outer Space Asians!

[DamnationReborn]

@bonepyre lol out of space japsyou mean

[thedarklordellesar]

im i big tau player but the title deserves a thats what she said... spam if you want

[usuqamadiq]

FOR TAU!!! FOR THE GREATER GOOD!!!

[timbo157]

tau is win ! for the win !

[ChoasMarine44]

Tau are the coolest, the space marines are cool and all but the tau would desroy them in a war because tau have superior technology but they dont attack in numbers

[BMWchickmagnet]

what game is this

[strombada]

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War

The Tau are added in on the Dark Crusade and Soulstorm expansions.

[BMWchickmagnet]

thanks

[usuqamadiq]

Warhammer 40.000 Dawn of War. I don't know which Addon.

[bigmac471]

orks got woped

[haloman4311]

i also like the Tau empire, they look kewl

[chrisjk123]

dont get it blow me away ?

[lazathor]

it is the name of the song

[stonebelgiumfire]

for the greater good

[C603032]

I've faced the tau, and anyone who disses them clearly hasnt felt the hurt they can put down with 9 railguns and 50+ rapid fireing S5 weapons. You dont get into close combat.

[strombada]

You don't get into close combat if you suck at rolling.

I've had Crisis Suits that have beaten a Chaos Lord in CQB and even have two gun drones that have never lost a melee.

But yes, the liquid death of the Pulse Rifles and the rail guns can have hilarious effects on opposing armies that run through the middle of the field.

[minipancho94]

@C603032 your tau shall fall under the iron fist of the 751st elysian-cadian tactical strike force!! i hope your rail guns like the incomeing deathstrike missle if their not taken down by my vendettas or manticores!!

[baastard029]

@C603032 actually... the assault marines can make a mess of your rail shits

[ColdShadow3993]

@baastard029 plasma rifles can and will pwn your assault marines

[baastard029]

@ColdShadow3993 all that's required is strategy. I can easily just come from behind cz the assault marines can move over impassable terrain. Not so hard after all now is it. Or i can simply throw a predator as a bait so the ppl would shoot at it and then the assault marines will come... all too easy

[ColdShadow3993]

@baastard029 it is of course all subject to your opponents ability to read the events which are unfolding beneath them on the table top. if you want to run a distraction do so with two very tempting units...you know make it less obvious as a distraction and more obvious as a tactical error on your part. give the enemy beleif they can wipe out a good portion of your army through them alone with the real hammer striking elsewhere.

[BeliveingImpossible]

@C603032 My 200 point list has 3 teams of 3 men Broadsides.

Heh heh hehh.

(The army itself costs $750 thou)

[Khorneberzerker1000]

@C603032 well my 20 blood angels termies does. with 2+ amour, 3+ inv, feel no pain, and furious charge because of the attached priest... (and perhaps even fearless if i am lucky). and when they get into close combat nothing tau got can stop them. 

[arktheball]

@Khorneberzerker1000 If I make you roll enough dice then they will die. And your also assuming that you are able to catch anything to melee it :D I would dance around you till you died.

[Khorneberzerker1000]

@arktheball well, if your fire warriors dance around they can only rapid fire(and then im in assault range)... and i will target your devilfishes with lascannons just to stun them and then swarm them with the terminators. seriously, that is the cheapest tactic blood angels can do, and tau has an reaaaaly old codex(4 edition i think) so they cant stop these terminators. but of course you can always be lucky, thats right.

[isak666man]

@Khorneberzerker1000 I have faced blood angels and space marines before and terminators are all talk. sure, they have good armorsaves and decent stats but they are pretty expensive and can die quite easily as long as you wound them with many dies. Plus, if you have units that instakill on 6rolls they are so easy to kill.

[isak666man]

@Khorneberzerker1000 plus, if you were to fight me with your "20" terminators, then i would just pick my 80+ firewarriors with 20 markerdrones, 9 extra markerlights and my XV8 HQ and you will be toast. XP

[Khorneberzerker1000]

@isak666man 80 fire warriors? ehh, thats about 1600 points, + all the other shit, its about 2000 points. for that i can get the terminators AND my land raiders ( which you cant stop with that army, plus my death company berserkers and my reqlusiarch.

statistically if ALL your fire warriors rapid fire point black at my terminators you almost kill 4. and they are not likely to survive that long. trust me, you dont have a chance against such an army. the tau codex are way to old.

[isak666man]

@Khorneberzerker1000 actually i´ve found out that you can only have 48 fire warrior troops at a time, but that means i have 480 points for fire w. 160 for fully upgraded XV8. 80 for 4 extra markerlights. 80 for 4 firewarrior leaders. That becomes 800 p.

And if i want to i can throw in a hammerhead tank with a railgun (72" 10S AP 1) for 160 points to take down your land raiders if you can afford them. XD PWNED

[Khorneberzerker1000]

@isak666man statistically you need to fire that rail gun 4-5 times to have a chance of killing a landraider (cover not included). statistically, with that army you take down two terminators per turn(fell no pain not included). and i got some more stuff two you need to kill. XD PWNED

[isak666man]

@Khorneberzerker1000 you think you can have all that stuff when fighting a max 1000 points fight? 20 termies is like +800 points and you can barely afford one land raider, and even if you were to afford it i can still own you hard so XD PWNED

[Khorneberzerker1000]

@isak666man is it 1000 points now? well i got two land raider and mephiston. you statistically fire at the land raider 5 turns with all your rail guns and kill one. at that time you are dead. XD PWNED

[DarthFolo]

@Khorneberzerker1000 I'll call in a seekermissile bombardment from across the board, that'll take care of your infantry. I will follow up with outflanking Piranha teams with fusionblasters, while broadsides snipe your tanks. :)

[Khorneberzerker1000]

@DarthFolo whats that? a apocalypse weapen? and im not scared by piranhas. if they get close enough to use their meltas they are dead.

[falco1663]

@Khorneberzerker1000 wtf- seeker missiles aren't apocalypse weapons- there a 10 point upgrade NOOB! and even if you are fearless- farsight with his unit of 7 crisis suits, all w/ ap2 plasma rifles will rape your terminators- statistically, 6 die every turn, (markerlights not included)(farsight not included)

what 40k player calls himself Khorneberzerker1000 if he plays blood angels?

[Khorneberzerker1000]

@falco1663 because i play both blood angels and chaos. and yeah, that unit would rape my terminators. not 6 per turn, i think you forget my strom shields. but i will never catch you. but this unit is still relatively expensive and i will deep strike the termies and find some other ways to deal with these suits. my army includes lot of other fast units. besides, the tau codex is really old, 4th edition and most of its unit sucks.

[steven61388]

@C603032 and if you do, there's always the kroot....

[rapidthedominic]

@C603032 tau are AWESOME

[mayhem380]

@C603032

That's where deep striking comes in.

[catland88]

@mayhem380 A decently deployed Tau army isn't scared of deep strikers.

[mayhem380]

@catland88

They're scared of close combat though! >:)

[catland88]

@mayhem380 As if non-close combat deep strikers will scare us. The deployment is to make assaulters and deep striking assaulters die before they touch our heavies.

[scoober11111]

@mayhem380 I play as the Tau, i had 24 Firewarriors with pulse rifles vs 30 bigboyz... they had 13 left when they got into close combat... all of my firewarriors died instantly. i learnt to flee when they're in range.

[imperialkitty]

crap audio

still it was pretty good

go tau!

[milandz]

lets be fair the tau are still there cose the imperium is to busy to destroy them wen the nids and chaos noobs are gone the tau will get wiped out the only reason the are still in the game is becose the nids came els the wud be dead

all hail the god emperor of mankind

[KainCrymson]

And proven into the history, Ultramarines along other chapters went on to face the Tau and reach the heart of the empire but had to fallback being called to face the tyranids.

Lucky Tau

[isak666man]

@milandz dude, the imperium sucks. The only thing they are good at is numbers to use as meatshields. Out of all the races, the imperium is the one that sucks the most. Plus they will never even get close to defeating the nids, cus´ the hive mind that is controlling everything is like galaxies away and even if they can´t completely exterminate the puny humans they will just move to an easier more food-filled place and ignore the Imperium.

All Hail The Mighty Destroyers, The TYRANIDS!!!!

[Clendmike]

SLIDE RIGHT AND LEFT

[Hasselhoff2223]

2:37 Kroots are better than i thought

[kryzkryz]

lol love 1:51 tau commander kicks ass lol

[mastergamerbailey]

i collect orks i was gonna collect tau but theres just not enough choice of infantry for me :)

[MishMash987]

right on man orks are da best! the orks' favourite song is 'Colours' by 'The Prodigy'

[Ahcrap1347]

Awesome work there. I gotta say that Tau are 1 of the best race out there especially with infantry as those fire warriors just have insane range over everyone else (Kauy'on ones) when fully upgraded. Add in a couple of pathfinders for stealth detection too.

[Dashzap]

sure u got range but what happens when cc comes around??? Ive used a small squad of grots (1 vs 1) against tau and won? u got okay guns but otherwise tau are a screwed race/army

[scirket]

this is why they have the kroot :)

[Dashzap]

the who? the guys that have no armor save and get wiped by everyone but IG and other tau in the first round of cc?

[Dodershift]

Tau are good at what they do I just don't like them personaly as they're sort of a one trick pit-pony theres no real stratagy other than picking the right targets.

[Dashzap]

yea, sadly tau have become a one-trick pony, the moment you get in assault, or bring 48 in ap4 weps they are screwed

[Dodershift]

true.

[VastianKrow]

I like the video editting, it combines the intensity of the song with the heat of battle. In the Tau's case for the Greater Good.

[DinoKillar]

is that a game?

[MishMash987]

yeh its really good but I can't play it seeing as I have a Mac not a PC

[thefuzzIRL]

that KICKED ASS!!!! AWESOME VID =D

[ZakLiverpoolFC]

whats that song called

[blkknight61]

blow me away

[iammjolnir]

by whom?

[warhammerking10]

space marines own!

tau r a good race

[xxxIRossHi]

Tau are by far my fav <3

I just hate using Kroot so if I get meleed... bye bye.

[MrDawnofWar]

oh man thats an awsome vid

I LOVE THE TAU THATS MY FAVORITE RACE !!!!!!

[residentevilfreak300]

For the greater good!!!(I love the tau!!! They are awsome!!!)

[97gandalf]

tau have rail guns. Battle Suit XV88 has 2 rail guns

20 dice

[Im1man]

This video does a great job of describing tau struggles against orks with a song very fitting for tau rallying their defenses against the pesky orks.

[guardsmen2479]

tau are great in my town theres alot of imperial guard fanboyz and damn there tanks suck against a hammer head 50" range battle like str 6 than mine fuck yeah 72" range str 10 railgun take it bitch than guardsmen verse fire warrriors dont even get me started lol. but seriosly you them correctly you'll win every time

[john211996]

wats tau?

[12udePacMan]

tau r the best i collect tau and black templars

[claric25]

if they want to get blown away ill do it

[taumanalan]

that was a small tau army

[LordThoriner]

Kroot are awesome in dawn of war too bad they are only good for cannon fodder in the Tabletop version! For the Greater Good!

[LordThoriner]

Also why were all the nobz n that trying to engage your fire warriors in range? And why were the stormboyz not landing right ontop of your fire warriors? All of the orks wernt set on melee so you won easily. I mean if the orks had been on an all out charge you wouldnt of won. Unless you sit your kroot right infront of your fire warriors on ranged stance and hold position. Anyways good video! Nice song. Doesn't really suit the Tau but it's a good one to listen to while orks are getting pwnt!

[LP1515156]

This is just footage from IGN......it seems like nobody reads the descriptions anymore....

[spareer123]

i think tau is the path but chaos is good to

i collect tau , space marines , and chaos!!!

\

[Drag341]

same but sm are better i always get owened in the table top version with tau

[alphawesker13]

you are all wrong CHAOS IS THE TRUE PATH!!!

[Drakenvlieg]

chaos ar dump assesses

all for nubz who are genittin" pwnd!

[Drag341]

heritic for the golden throne

[666madafaka666]

WHY THIS SONG?! Every movie on yt is with this song... It's starting to be boring

[IAmBaconBits]

...Yes im a teriable speller (i bet i speeled that wrong) and reason for TAU vs Orks is cuss thats all the clips i could find...

[tecnoid101]

i lv it i really like tau infact you made me change to tau.but next time do necrons v orks.

[REDTEROR]

TAU aint taht good you killing orks, try someithgn more tough.ork are good but they dont ahve numbers why i dont know they alwasy out number you always O_O maybe not nids but tehy dont acount.

[phoenixfiregod]

... are you talking ork or are you a bad speller?

and i love it when orks get tousted in the morning..... i wonder what ork tastes like?

[boblio123]

HELLE YEAH FOR THE GREATER GOOD tau can take out any of thi other pitfull team theyr are the best team ever made with Shaso kais the leader of the tau welle juste a bunche

[AgentArrow]

I play Tau, and let me tell you, nothing beats their range and aim. On the Tabletop, or in the game.

[hellgatester2]

this video makes tau the most unbeatable team in the game

[lousir2]

Speak not to the xeno ! FOR THE EMPERAZ !!!!!!!!

[whostoleEdux24]

very nice. the tau r the best race, cuz the have everythhing u can wish: strong melee, awesome power on firing from the distance, awesome stealth units, best commander in game, many mass destruction weapons, but sadly no defence :( but that's ok ;) love'em

[petersky1989]

I have sworn to fight for the Tau!

[Mrdickens2]

Loved the Video awsome.

[Sarrow112]

good video and great music love this band and the real game this song went to heh HALO 2! but i feel like this is more suited for Imp guards

[inthedark45]

yeah the tau can shoot you down but space marine librarians can make a tau's head explode with nothing but his mind

FOR THE EMPEROR!!

[AmonKai1186]

Tau are freakin sweet. They are the greatest in my opinon cause like the IG, they don't have any psyker powers or super daemons to call on. Just tech and some guts behind it.

FOR THE GREATER GOOD!!

[IMODGames]

tau commander owns

[TeHAnnihilaterer]

tau dont pwn, they spank, which is a more embarrassing degree of pwnage 4 the loser

[IAmBaconBits]

almost to 400

[fcukmars]

FOr that TAU

[Ziggygoon]

I never thought of this music for Tau, but it actually fits them well!

Nice vid!
