During the Third Sphere Expansion, they were able to reach "hitherto unthinkable velocities" with newly developed impulse reactors, implying FTL.

I have yet to get the second edition of the Taros Campaign book though to see whether or not they kept the Ether Drive info. So they are expanding rapidly with near or very slow light speeds...lolwut!? damn that is sounding grim for the Tau. If that is the serious revamp for the Tau, that means that they are going to have all their FP awards taken away from them, due to said slowness...such in the  case of WH40K vs Stargate thread where it was that small little paragraph about the Necrons FTL change that sealed the deal for Stargate to win...

You know I think WH40K is slowly being nerfed in the space department...
