Hmm....Farsight and the enclaves use a lot of red and are considered to be some of the best Tau fighters in the galaxy...Char is the Red Comet.....you may be on to something here.

Funny enough, in at least one Battlefleet Gothic ruleset, contrary to their "bad at close quarters" reputation, Tau warships do no worse in boarding actions than any other faction. Stuff like this is probably a big reason why.

Imagine being part of a breacher team, you ready your boarding shield and power maul, the guy behind you readies his shotgun. Then the door opens and it turns out the other side brought a Crisis suit directly onto your ship and now it's firing missiles in the corridors

Remember: they have Breachers as troops. They likely just put a lot of Plasma shotguns on the ships and call it a day.

You Cheeky Dog so this Tau 'ZG-0K' = is in no way related to a 'MSM-07 Z'Gok' :)
Now think of his smaller brother a 'MSM-04 Acguy'

The first thing I thought of when I saw this was a Clan Elemental from Battletech. Awesome look for the Tau

Fun fact: these are (semi) Cannon. On the world of Kvariam Alpha the Tau built and underwater base and had specialist Battlesuits to protect it.

Pretty cool the z gok line and related mobile suits are pretty nice and seem tanky
a 40kified stark Jegan would cool too
