In the wars between the T'au Empire and the Imperium, the Imperials are finding themselves outmatched and overwhelmed by the superior and ever-evolving technology of the Earth Caste. This bodes ill for the technologically and culturally stagnant Imperium. So, the Imperials have taken brutal and desperate measures. One such example is the Scions' raid on the sept world of Bork'an, the technological hub of the T'au Empire. It was less a war and more like a globalized school shooting! The Imperial cretins are too deficient and dishonorable to face the Shas in proper warfare, so they targeted civilians and children!
