Which 40K race do you side with?

Well, to me it comes down to 2 different things. The flavour of the faction, and how well I personally play with them. On that front, I love the Orks, Imperial Guard, and Tau for their flavour, but I play more in line with the Eldar/Dark Eldar or Tau - long ranged, fast combat. Sure the Eldar can mix it up in melee, and I love the specialism their units have, but I'm always more comfortable with my enemy at range than up close.
So I guess, given they're the only race I like both fluff wise and combat wise, I'd side with the Tau.

I loves me some Tau, the only race who really cares about advancing technology, which does everything in the pursuit of a better galaxy. Also they have Mechs with railguns.
I like Tyranids, because of their fearsome and awesome appearance, and their rapid biological evolution moving towards wiping out all life.
So it would seem that I like races capable of rapid advancement to gain success.
Yet my third favorite is the Sisters of Battle, essentially filling the role of paladins, their fervor and faith inspiring them to levels of heroic prowess. These are perhaps the most dogmatic and unchanging of all, but they can call upon the Emperor's power. The Inquisition speaks of great power and suspicion that is warranted in such a hostile universe.

No problem. I gotta admit I'm rather fond of "sharing" it as I'm proud of it. I also have a huge freakin aquila banner over my bed, plus a bunch of various 40k posters, but no photos of that, sadly.tjarne said:Frikkin sweet, thanks for sharingdalek sec said:Damn that's a pretty nice aquila you got there.Iwata said:tjarne said:
Done about 4 years ago after being on the fence for about a year.
Yeah... I kinda like 40K.
the Forces of Chaos are my favourite, specifically Nurgle. I love the way he is considered as a paternal figure,and his demons are playful and cheerful but don't realise the bad they're doing to his..."toys".plus zombies own....
if I were to choose the imperium of man, I'd go with the Vostroyan army(I love the Russian/zarish look they have) or the Cadian army(the look extremely proffesional and cool).not to fond of the Space Marines, though except maybe the Dark angels.
and as for a Xeno race..I'd choose the dark Eldar( sadistic bastards, I love 'em) or the Tau(because they resemble a bit to utopian socialism, in the old codex at least)

Maybe space marines, dark angels. I love their background, colourscheme, and of course they are after all my army choice for tabletop game. On the other hand, I might side myself with chaos, thousand sons.... or perhaps, dark eldar? Not sure just yet...
