    What I would love would be that there is no secret to the control ability of the Etherial cast.
    Their society actually, truly believe and trust them that much.
    It's just that the Imperium cannot acknowledged, even to themselves, that leaders can inspire devotion when their charisma is matched by their efficiency, and that only Gods, such as the Emperor or his Sons can have that effect. Therefore it must be magic, or manipulation.
    Surely no one actually believe in that stuff.
    It's impossible.

      Personally I'm done trying to grimdark them. They are not perfect, but they are not evil. Just different, and willing to adapt. A collectivist society thag is put under strain because of the horrors of space, but not only manage to find peace and prosperity within the good will of the xenos who join them, but also to be a beacon or survival and hope in the darkness of an uncaring universe.

    From my understanding, depending on play style you’ll want pulse rifles and pistols (strike team) or pulse blasters and pistols (breacher team). With breachers you’d be good sticking them in a devilfish with a guardian drone and driving straight into your enemies face. But I’m a farsight enclaves player so I need to get a bit closer.

    Maybe the rival is a mechanicus counterpart who’s interest in Tau tech began with being run off their forgeworld. With a burning desire to reclaim what they’ve lost (a zeal for technological development bordering on heresy) they have grafted Tau tech and know-how onto mechanicus units (like Onager Dune Crawlers with Hammer head railguns or bipedal Breachers that tale inspiration from crisis suits.).
    Hell, if you wanted to really straddle the line of heresy you could make the Magos’ retinue super shorthanded, forcing their reconquista force to consist of repurposed drone/AI tech to bolster their numbers.

    Aun'shi needs to be Vior'la (can be namechanged to your custom sept but you need the Vior'la rules). From the agression inherent in the sept (and how it is reflected in the tabletop) pulse blasters are better. And maybe pick up some pathfinders later on.

Epic viewer engagement moment. Simultaneously you scroll eBay and bid on rarted broken models. Part 2. Make a video series afterwards bashing all of the bits bobs and you've got a hold of into a squad or legion. Have you viewers vote on lore, backstories, colour schemes, anything you want once all the trash has arrived in the mail.

    May be too late for the rival suggestion but how about a no nonsense, lead from the front officer in the astra militarum. The ethereal inspire by well something not entirely readily observable. This officer inspires by being toughest guy in the trenches and crafting battle plans to bring most of his or her troops home.
