Ah, at first, i thought you were referencing that, but it's generally said when people post pictures of models like this:

That's Grimdark.

You know, Orks can and do loot basically everything they can get their hands on. I don't see why it's impossible for them to loot some Tau Pulse Rifles and add moar dakka.

Orks love loud explosions... weapon quality is decided on the noise they make. Given ork intelligence the noise made by the weapon itself is equally if not more important than the effect upon the target.
(given recent fluff, one could argue that orks could make lasguns fire explosive rounds though...)

Even an Ork should be able to notice no actual bullets come out, right?
Also, loot a baneblade. A Tau Baneblade. (Tau can use IG stuff, but I'm not sure Orks can looted already looted stuff.)

It would be entirely possible; Ork weaponry is quite effective, Ork aiming leaves something to be desired.

Even if they have a super accurate weapon, they still wouldn't aim it, AMIRITE?  Just shoot wildly?

Entirely correct. Even the best marksOrks are pretty average in comparison to the Tau.

Actually, the Tau have the same base BS as the Orkz.

Their helmet has some flashy lights and optics that give them BS3. Same as a grot, or guardsman.

They rely on the Markerlights to give them the edge they need.

No

THey start with BS 3

[Jakkarra]

Gameplay-wise, yes.

Fluffwise, what i said. they have shitty eyes.

Which are greatly enhanced by the addition of high-tech optical sensors and targeting computers; things with Orks generally lack.

[Jakkarra]

Which i mentioned.

Come on, it's not that hard to decipher!

The thing is; i said that Orks tend to be pretty crappy marksOrks, especially compared to the Tau. You then responded that actually the Tau aren't very good, but they have high tech stuff that makes them good.

Basically, your post contributed nothing but nonsense to the discussion.

[Jakkarra]

It wasnt nonesense.

It was a valid point, that i assumed people would want to discuss.

Obviously not.

[Org]

No

[Neruz]

How was it a valid point? It was the equivalent of this tidbit (i was actually a part of this conversation):


P1: "Ooh, your car is red, nice."
P2: "Actually it's blue, i just got it painted red last week."
P1: "..."

[zchris13]

I love conversations like that.  Marvelous things, they are.
