You two are saying IG and even though I know it means something else, my brain is screaming "INSECT GLAIVE."

On a completely unrelated note, a good friend made me watch Season 2, Episode 1 of Sherlock yesterday/earlier today (we started before midnight and ended after midnight).
Not regretting it.

I just like the Tau in general. Their tech looks cool, apparently are the only ones still progressing in technology, aren't hideously xenophobic, have a diverse selection of units (tabletop and game) that don't need to rely on each other but can deal some serious damage if they do, and weren't wiped out purely because of the most suspicious warp storm ever. I mean, sure, "Greater Good" sounds pretty ominous once you think about all the other times it's been used in real life and literature, and apparently might be involved in brainwashing new alien arrivals, but hey, Xenotech's awesome. 

Tau and Eldar. The best factions by far.
Damn Eldar! Damn them all!

The Eldar are a bit too "enlightened and holier than thou" for my liking.
The joke is that they're overpowered as hell in some of the warhammer RTS game series'. Yay prism cannon spam!

Found a mod manager, downloaded and installed both FoK and UA... or at least I would, if the Inquisition and Tyranids mods UA needs weren't unhelpfully locked behind a unwarranted download method that's broken in Wine. I can't even just get them myself because the installer isn't smart enough to know the files already there, and the middleman mods that help merge it all together aren't installed until after the side mods are.

I must confess my adoration for the tau for their tech is beautiful, and they simply refuse to play by the rules of "take and hold" and their strategies throw a wrench in all of it.

Honestly their entire tactics division is "every step increases our maximum range".

Pretty much.

They draw at least some parallels to avali do they not?

UA will work without the added factions, and the inquisition download has BEEN broken.

Eh, fuck this, when I get home in the evening I'll go see if I can just extract the middleman mods myself.

Also, whoever packaged it together was not smart. UA_Chaos or something like that has "Daemons"  as a prerequisite, which doesn't exist, although "Chaos_Daemons" does. The latter is also broken, requesting something with "marker_SS" at the end, which also doesn't exist, although one ending in "marker_UA"  does, or something, the names aren't notable enough to stick with me.

The rep system has literally no bearing on anything.
Alpha's Null's is so high because his random internet finds have long been a much-loved staple of the Nexus.
Fair warning: Those numbers can be set to whatever the admins please at any time. So if anyone feels an urge to farm theirs or make a big deal about it, they'll find it reset to a negative number- or worse 0 and their account no longer able to use that feature.

But they are kinda fun to see who has what number there, just because.
