夏司'欧·拉'密尔

Shas'O R'myr

为了替扩张中的钛帝国守住这颗矿业行星，作为派往塔洛斯的火氏部队指挥官，夏司'欧·拉'密尔对它的战略部署负有全部重责，他要从人类帝国的那可以预见的入侵行动中保卫这个世界。正是他策划了这场让皇帝的部队因战败而支离破碎、蒙羞受辱的战役，而在这场战役中，凭借他的那套个人化的XV89-02战斗服，拉'密尔领导了许多最为重要的战斗。

As commander of Fire caste forces sent to secure the mining planet of Taros for the expanding Tau Empire, Shas'o R'myr held overall responsibility for its strategy in defending the world from the Imperium's anticipated invasion. It was he that planned the campaign that would see the Emperor's armies shattered and humbled in defeat, and he that led many of the campaign's most important battles from his personalised XV89-02 Battlesuit.

在精挑细选之下，夏司'欧·拉'密尔成为了塔洛斯远征队的领导者。那场发生于达摩克利斯远征期间的血战让战后的钛帝国司令官不想和人类帝国全面开战，他们试图找出一位指挥官：他能够在不将战争演变为消耗战的前提下守住新拓之土。他们要的是一位了解鸠'拉，并且还能将其击而败之的人物。

Shas'o R'myr was  carefully  selected to lead the Taros expedition. After the bloody fighting that occurred during the Damocles Crusade the commanders of the Tau Empire were reluctant to be drawn into another fullscale war with the Imperium and sought a commander who could defend their new holding without turning it into a war of attrition. What they needed was someone who understood the Guer'la and how to defeat them.

为此，他们向达'利斯家门和夏司'欧·拉'密尔求助。在两百年前的达摩克里斯远征中，这个家门险些在保卫钛帝国的战斗中被人类帝国的部队摧毁。而力挽狂澜扭转战局的正是一位叫拉'密尔的火氏指挥官，他让家门的火战士免遭灭顶之厄。达'利斯家门对自己的救世主是如此的崇敬，以至于当最初的夏司'欧·拉'密尔过世后，他们保留了对方的头衔名号和教学理论，如此一来，它们便可被传递给另一位证明自己在对抗鸠'拉时具有同样价值的战士。

For this they turned to the Dal'yth sept and Shas'o R'myr. Over two hundred years before, during the Damocles Crusade, the sept had come close to being annihilated by Imperial forces as they fought in defence of the Tau Empre. It was a Fire caste commander known as Shas'o R'myr who turned the tide of the battle and saved the warriors of the sept from destruction. In such high regard did the Dal'yth sept hold their saviour that when the original Shas'o R'myr died, his title and teachings were preserved so that they could be passed on to another warrior who proved himself just as wonthy against the Guer'la.

据信在那之后只有四名火战士赢得了冠以这一头衔的权力，而每一位身故的拉'密尔都会将自己的遗赠和经验传给后继者。正是这种知识令塔洛斯上的钛族部队成功地预测了帝国的作战计划并对此作出了反击，由于其麾下猎核实施的远距离袭扰和纵深防御战略是如此的成功，相信（这种战法）很快就会被其它面临类似战况的家门世界所采用。

lt is believed that only four Fire caste wariors have earned the right to bear the title since then, each adding to the legacy and experience of those who have gone before them. It was this knowledge that allowed the Tau force on Taros to successfulry predict and counter the Imperium's battle plans, and the long range harassment and defence - in - depth strategy employed so successfully by the Cadres under his command is believed to have been quickly adopted by those of other septs facing similar circumstances.

对于夏司'欧·拉'密尔来说，他在塔罗斯之战中的唯一败笔就是以太铵'维的殒命，这位以太在战争行将结束之际被一名帝国刺客杀害了。尽管夏司'欧·拉'密尔毋需为以太之死负责，但这位骄傲的火氏战士将此事视为个人的失败，并试图在战役之后对每一支所遇的帝国军队施以血腥的报复。

For Shas'o R'myr, his only failure in the battle for Taros was the death of the Ethereal Aun'Vre, who was slain by an lmperial assassin in the closing stages of the war. While Shas'o R'myr was never held accountable for the Ethereal's death, the proud Fire caste warrior saw it as a personal failure and sought to inflict bloody retribution on every Imperial army he faced after that campaign.

夏司'欧·拉'密尔的小贴士

1.现任（也就是第五任）拉'密尔的外号叫长刀（long knife）。

2.就算和帝国军进行正面对决，拉密尔也能赢得塔罗斯战役，但如此一来代价会非常高昂，所以他毫不犹豫地选择了智取。

夏司'欧·拉'密尔的夏司'阿'托尔认为，用正面对决的方式打败人类帝国是一种错误之举。他毫不怀疑自己的部队能够以此取胜，只是代价会很大——也许会比钛帝国为征服塔洛斯所应该付出的代价还要巨大。如果此役变成一场两军对垒之战的话，那么人类帝国就会派更多的部队过来，而战事也会就此升级，然后在第一波部队之后，会有更多的舰船、更多的士兵、更多的坦克紧随而至，虽然钛星人可以消灭他们，但如此一来就无法迅速取胜了，而且生命的代价会变的非常高昂。

Shas'ar'tol Shas'o R'myr believed that to try to defeat the Imperium in an open battle was a mistake. He had little doubt his forces could achieve victory this way, but only at a high cost- perhaps a greater price than the Tau Empire should pay for the conquest of Taros. If it came to a pitched battle, the Imperium would send more forces and the battle would escalate, then more ships, more men and more tanks would follow the first wave, and although the Tau might destroy them, victory would not be quick and the cost in lives would be great.
