Spoiler: right here

Alright, I think I got everything.

BTW, Eldar ftw. If only dark eldar had a better codex.

Imperial Guard.
Because if you can't push foward, you can hold them off with gun nests, then pound them to ashes with artillery...
as Neosage knows.

 

[ma55ter_fett]

Nuff Said.
But yeah, the Dark Angels chapter of the space marines take shit from no-one, have a badass first-company and wear friggin' robes.​

Going to have to stand with you on this one, nothing says commitment like an eternal quest for redemption.

 

[Vek]

IG. I'm a tread-head, and IG has the best assortment of vehicles in 40K.

 

[remmus]

Orkz all the way, both because there dead fun, plus I love there junky style.

btw for those in the dark still

I'm a Guard fan myself, although I do enjoy playing other armies, like Space Marines (Space Wolves) and Orks.

As cool as Space Wolves are, the Guard are my favourite dudes.

 

[Iiits Borthwick]

I have come to love the relatable guard. As much as i love my witchhunters, my Dark Eldar, my Eldar, My Tau and Kroot Mercenaries (who could be mentioned as part of the Tau poll), they are just so relatable and customisable, they can just win on looks alone

As long as we can breath, we stand
As long as we can stand, we fight.

In the name of the Emperor,

WE WILL HOLD THIS LINE!

I would have totally selected the Space marines, just because they are awesome and shoot and do cool things , however, i selected Chaos just because of this... http://img216.imageshack.us/i/nowonderwewon3dm.jpg/

also, sorry but don't know how to post pics here. But the one on the left in the picture is my favorite unit of all time. Tho most time i had in this game was when i was playing with 7 bots and the game screen was full of normal orks, not the shooters, just the normal ones. And then i fly just in the middle of all of them...and the rest is just sooo awesome...that THING is so bloody cool, how he plays baseball with random solders, and how he uttery destroys everything.

Also, i love duels against the eldar god-thingy, (avatar or something?) , the finishing moves with both of them are epic.

The problem with the Avatar is the fact that 150 flashlight lasgun shots will likely bring him down. My bro plays the imp guard, and he has learned to keep his squad of 50 conscripts in front of his tank. When the Avatar comes near, he uses a command for an extra shot, and my avatar falls. Drives me insane. Statistically, I should have one wound left after that barrage, but statistics are never precise.

WWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Orksees never loose.

Didn't know you could take him down so fast...but hey, that's why i chose chaos. The Prince has more hp and more damage too (at least i think he has).

Also, i when i played the game for the first time, i fell in love with the finishing moves, even casual solders can do them...and bosses against commanders, etc... soooo awesome. Gotta love warhammer 40, 000.
But I have never played warhammer 2, is it much better , anyone ?

 

[Volstag9]

When i started out i was most interested in the Space Marines. But now its more the imperial guard specifically the steel legion.

 

[randomdaroo]

i had to say eldar because SPACE ELVES!
and to owlslayer DONT CONFUSE THE DAWN OF WAR WITH WAHAMMER 40K
40k in on the table top and thats how it should be
even though the dow rocks

You mean DoW II yeah? The single player campaign mode rocks, but the multiplayer/skirmish mode sucks immensely.

It's hard to compare them. They work very differently. DoW 2 is an awesome game, but it's very far from what the first one was like. You don't really do any base building. It's been a while since I played, but as far as I recall it's like this: In the campaign you choose four squads out of several, to take into the next mission, and those are the ones you have for that mission. However, they earn experience and can be leveled up and equipped with stuff you earn during the missions. Multiplayer is fun too, where you don't have a base as much as just a few buildings that do the researching and training already. Then you use the hero you start out with and the squads you train from your headquarters to kick the other guy(s)' ass(es).

Dawn of War I will always be superior to Dawn of War II for the simple fact that IT DOESN'T FORCE YOU TO INSTALL FRIGGEN STEAM OR GAMES FOR WINDOWS LIVE

I kinda liked the multiplayer mode. It's pretty fun and a different kind of challenge. It gets especially awesome if you've chosen to be space marines and have the Apothecarian, since he becomes a one man army later on. I remember playing 3 vs 3, where I could sometimes hold back the enemies' advance with just him. Fun for me, not so much for the other guys maybe

 

[Doug]

I'm torn myself, though I'm not a W40K player, I enjoy both Dawn of War games, and some of the books. The Tau are good, but so are the Imperial Guard...

Imperial Guard.

Considering every monster / horror / superhero movie shows the military being powerless (usually resulting in a few unlikely heroes saving the day), it's nice to see the horrors of the galaxy crushed under the bootheels of ordinary men and women.

...For this very reason Also, the Guant's Ghost's series make then very likeable.

Lol... i remember i kinda liked those apothecarians too, tough in DoW I they were just a good bonus in a squad. But the funny thing is, in DoW I that unit can kill a full team of those weak chaos units (the weakest ), and they even don't take much hp out of him. His HP regeneration rate is quite fast .
