Hey guys, so i'm getting ready to rehash the Project- finish up the Fire Caste, work on the Kor- ect.
So- i know i've asked this before but in light of newer fluff (current WD article for example.) But i need a comprehensive list of nearby Human worlds (Dolumar, Nimbosa) and smaller Tau colonies (Me'lek, Es'tau). I really need help doing this as my collection is no longer available. So, if anyone could help me start building the list- that would be great. Just put the planets name first- then a blurb on fluff like what happened on it.

Official only, or does this include player-made worlds?

From IA3 and the Tau Empire Codex, we can see that the Tau Empire encompasses just over a hundred settled/colonized worlds, consisting of twenty Septs and a large number of vassal alien homeworlds.
In addition to the primary 1st (1PE), 2nd (2PE), and 3rd (3PE) Phase Expansion Planets described and detailed in the Star Maps in the Codices: --- Fire Warrior Kra'sylth - Location: Unknown (2PE) Site of an enormous battle between Shas'O Shi'ur's Contingent/Command and a Tyranid Splinter Fleet. Outcome unknown. Kuu'lan - Location: Near Dal'yth, Frontier World (3PE) World taken during the Third Sphere Expansion Natash: Location: Unknown (2PE) No information Queh-Quih - Location: Near Perdus Rift, Kroot Territory Kroot "Sept" World. Rann - Location: South of Damocles Gate, between Dolumar IV and Dal'yth (2PE) Frontier/Outpost world with vast orbital shipyards. Yu'kanesh - Location: Near Dal'yth, Frontier World (3PE) Site of Ethereal capture just prior to the events on Dolumar IV. [size=6pt]To be updated soon[/size] --- Aeronautica Imperialis Ik'yabar - Location: Southern Tau Territory, near D'yanoi and Fal'shia (2/3PE) Arctic world near D'yanoi that came under the assault of a Tyranid splinter fleet during the Third Sphere Expansion. Thanks to heavy presence of Kor air power, the Tyranids were defeated. Dy'rios III - Location: Northern Tau Territory (3PE) One of the many planets raided by Commander Shadowsun during the Third Sphere Expansion. --- Xenology Colony #23 (Imperial Designation) - Location: Near Damocles Gulf, West of N'Dras (2PE) Information unknown --- Kill Team Me'lek - Location: Southern Near Side of Damocles Gulf, West of T'olku (2PE) Tau Garrison/Staging World Es'tau - Location: Southern Near Side of the Damocles Gulf, West of T'olku (2PE) Tau Garrison/Staging World - Site of Imperium/Tau Battle, Conclusion Unknown --- Imperial Armour 3: The Taros Campaign T'ros - Location: Likely on the Southern Far Side of the Damocles Gulf, West of T'olku (3PE) Imperial mining world conquered by Shas'O R'myr in the Third Sphere Expansion --- The Traitor's Hand Salomine System (Imperial Designation) - Location: Near Edge of Damocles Gulf (2PE-3PE) A Tau colony world was attacked by Chaos "Ravagers." Encountering unexpected resistence, the Ravagers were delayed long enough for an Imperial Naval contingent to catch up with them and "slaughter the heretics in the name of the Greater Good." --- Other Games Workshop Sources Nimbosa - Location: Southern Far Side of Damocles Gulf, West of T'olku (3PE+) Vital gue'la mining/factory colony, site of fierce ongoing battles over ownership. Vor'anoth - Location: South-East of Tash'var between Fal'shia and D'yanoi (2PE) Small burgeoning colony that came under siege by Orks at its' two-year mark. Outcome unknown. Vir'la - Location: Vior'la System, One of Twelve Planets (1PE) Planet similar to Vior'la with a high proportion of Fire Warriors. Mon'kali - Location: Near Gue'la Space, between Damocles-Perdus Gate (3PE) Tau border colony, the site of a battle between Shadowsun's forces and Space Marines of the 'Dark Angels' classification. Kronus - Location: Damocles-Perdus Gate, Border World (2PE) Tau border colony, the site of a fierce battle between Tau and aliens of many classifications. Outcome unknown.

I'll put down a few
Sy'l'kel- lost and believed retaken Dolumar V- exterminated by SM after Chaos breach. Near Perdus Rift but beyond 2nd Phase Empire boundaries. Gravalax- Imperial held world infested by Genestealers. Tau influenced human population. Maybe in the north (southern end) of the Gulf 'gate.' Kronos- Contested world, closer Medusa. Epsil'ye'kal- human factory world near other human world influenced before the Damocles crusade. Typha IV- imperial factory world- contested, on the new 3rd sphere border

Semi-official, from Specialist Games:
Kleist - Tau-aligned Human world, taken during the 3rd phase expansion. Massive (for Gue'vesa) population of 7 billion and advanced infrastructure. Home of the Gue'senshi. Located in the Timbra subsector, east of Nimbosa, and presumably now a part of the Ksi'm'yen sept. Garrus & Phaeb - Minor human-inhabited worlds (or moons, I forget which) in the Kleist system. Surrendered to the Tau immediately after the fall of Kleist.
