Okay but seriously, why are there old trenches on Tau? I can buy that the Orokin, constant assholes that they were, came to Tau along the solar rails to kill the Sentients they created and claim their new solar system. That contradicts a lot of the old lore, but makes some logical sense. They presumably have the Tenno at this point though, and they have the Infestation; why would their tactics involve trench warfare? They could virus bomb a site from orbit and then send Tenno in to annihilate anything that still moved. Trench warfare isn't really efficient, there's a reason we don't really see it anymore, and the Orokin have tech far, far beyond what we have today.

Also if this update doesn't let us finally see The Sounding of the Naga Drums I will be very sad.

What? We're seeing trench warfare today now in Ukraine.

A lot of that is due to the Russian military secretly being incompetent since the Cold War. If you have proper air or space forces and know how to properly use them, then trenches aren't very useful

We've wargamed this, it works on us too is just not very well publicized.
