Ukos ;)

Just kidding i believe ukos means spoon, all fear the spoon army:)

Perhaps go through the codex and combine two tau words or someting or modify a septs name so its different but still tauish.

Here is a website for Tau Lexicon:

Just combine the words for a name for your army. ;D

Bob is a good name.  You should call your army Bob.

The more important question is what's the basis of your army? Then go from there.

The Kayon of Fio'vash (lit. the [patient] hunters of fio'vash)

Aun'shi is my general, and i have based my entire army around those who fought along side him against the orks. The name is also an indication of my style of play, as i wait for my foes to come towards to me and get shot to pieces - rather than vice versa. Guess what, they have never lost a game for me ;D

Do you use a lot of kroot?  Cuz if you do you could seperate them from the rest of your army and call them the krispy krootons or something.

p.s. im not joking...
