Thanks for your input Neithan02.

Having done further research I have to unfortunately agree with you. the highest attainable rank would be a gue'vesa'ui, which is basically just an auxilliary squad leader. with no connection to the fire caste proper.

To explain more in detail about the reason for my "defection", a good example would be the Taros campaign http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Taros_Campaign, Operation comet. Where the Elysian drop troops bravely fought until thier objective was destroyed and commander killed. After which all soldiers where taken prisoner therafter.

All in all, my motivation for beeing such a character would be that: I saw myself as a human in the w40k universe but strongly disagree with worshipping a man as a god. Which the emporer himself did not desire. So the closest "good" alaignment would then be fighting for the Tau and there belief.

In retrospect, with your insight Neithan02, I would have to change my character to being born a Tau alien, who has passed his trial by fire in the fire caste and now pilots an XV8 crisis battlesuit.
