Changes

Farsight formulated a meticulous plan to exterminate the Ork fleet alongside [[Air Caste]] Admiral [[Kor'O'Li'Mau'Teng]], devastating the Greenskin fleet in the Vorac asteroid belt. However despite the Ork fleet fleeing, Farsight insisted on pursuing and eliminating every last Greenskin, perhaps as a way to vindicate his failure in the [[Arkunasha War]] years earlier. Farsight chased the Orks across the Vorac Belt, eventually encountering the flagship of [[Grog Ironteef]], the [[Warchief of Alsanta]]. Ironteef split his fleet and moved one to [[Arthas Moloch]] and the other to the nearby Tau-held world of [[Atari Voi]]. Farsight landed on Atari Vo with the intention of defending it and rallying his forces, but Ironteef unleashed an asteroid shower on the planets cities that killed millions of Tau lives. An Ork land invasion soon began, spearheaded by salvaged Tau weaponry. Farsight was only saved by the intervention of an [[Air Caste]] defense fleet and the Greenskins fell back to the impact craters caused by their asteroids. Farsight led his forces into the craters, falling into a Greenskin ambush in the process that saw his troops decimated. Demoralized by the defeat, Farsight acted only as an adviser for the rest of the battle. Fortunately for the Tau, the planet's forces were eventually able to isolate and destroy the Orks, though a fleet under Warchief Grog managed to retreat.{{Fn|2}}

===Siege of the Enclaves===

However it soon became clear that Farsight had again underestimated the cunning of Warchief Grog. The Orks struck at the undefended worlds he had already captured earlier in the Expedition, and Farsight arrived at his base of operations on [[Vior'los]] to find the region in a full-scale war. Much like before, asteroids had been used as weapons and had devastated the Tau. In a fit of disgust rage over the multiple embarrassments the Greenskins had inflicted upon him, Farsight went into his personal [[Battlesuit]] and disappeared for the next several months, meditating on the ocean bed of Vior'los on how to defeat the Greenskins.{{Fn|1}}
