To each their own, but recognize that no side is good, just the rare individuals within them (except for Chaos, probably).

The only Tau I recall decent in anyway in melee was Kais from the Fire Warrior video game, who literally took on both the Imperium and Chaos by himself at the cost of his sanity.

The Tau are definately dedicated to not letting people get close enough to tear them apart. While the Imperial Guard are like the Red Army (or at least the Red Army as represented by Enemy at the Gates) with their human wave attacks tier 1 and mass tank deployment after, the Tau are the United States with their ranged focus and use of artillery and drones.
