Any Loyal Legions you just don't like?

Ultramarines.
I've always hated the "By the Book, It has to be by the book or else its not right."
The Dark Angels were my favorite

I'm surprised someone voted for Ravenguard...
Dark Angels was my choice...

Wait why the hate for raven guard and White Scars? Those were the coolest legions ever!
Please explain your answers mates!

I don't like Space Wolves. The wolf and space viking thing feels like its been beaten like a dead horse. Besides, vikings are lame. Ironic considering my heritage is mostly Norwegian. I'd have to say I like The Blood Angels most. Simple, nothing too dramatic legion.

Favourite: IF (followed by RG)

Least Favourite: Dark Angels (followed by Blood Angels)

I really dislike the Ultramarines , just too bland and over used for my tastes. Constantly going on about honour. I also hate Marneus Calgar , the fluff is vile and he is the most common marine HQ choice in my local GW.Why did he not just die at the hands of the Swarm Lord? . I've always had a liking of the Iron Hands , a really nice Chapter with cool looking models and colous.

Yeah, I have always thought the PURGE THE WEAK thing was fairly cool.

I picked Iron Hands. They're creepy, techno-freaks who most people forget exist. I mean, in the vanilla 'dex, Crimson Fists were rated as more important than them. Okay, it is true, CFs are cooler and do more, but IH were originally a legion.. and yet they suck that much.

I mean, who likes people who cut off their own limbs because of a lack of confidence in flesh?

Tech-Priests?

Tech Priests are out of context; we're discussing Marines here.

Besides, just because you have weak and squishy techno-freaks doesn't mean there aren't tough 'ardcase techno-freaks.

IF!

hmm...thought there would be a glossary pop-up for IF...
Imperial Fists!

What about 'em? They're awesome. End of.

Ultrasmurfs, without a doubt

I know, they are my fav SM. I used to play them before I started Tau. Guess I have a thing for yellow, eh?

Really? I was thinking imperial fists.

Ultramarines are my least favourite, my reason being they are shoved to far up their own ++word removed by inquisition++ My favourites are the Imperial Fists, because their successors are Black Templars, go figure.

Imperial Fists, think Dorn's a muppet, thus his chapter are forfit.

Nah, seriously, just don't like them, the whole we build it up, we knock it down thing the Fists and Iron Warriors have going bores me to tears everytime it comes up in the fluff.

Plus Lysander, *grabs a sick bucket* nope, don't like em at all.

At least the Ultramarines had Kraken, and all the associated carnage that brought to the region.

@Morathi's, don't you mean Behemoth?

Kraken hit the same side as well, poor ole Ultra's forgot Behemoth hit McCragge direct as well.

I just remember Kraken as Ultra's helped break it, as did Iyanden. Old Scythes player (not now sadly) so had Scythes with Kraken Markings, and a few Ultra allies with Kraken markings as well.

Probably Blood Angels.

I just don't like the fluff, especially to that of the Death Company.

I voted ultramarines.

"yes... we are the best chapter ever. Every chapter wants to be us. We are just that awesome"

Go die... in a hole... Painfully... And alone...



As a side note, my favorite is the Iron Hands, followed by the Dark Angels.

Go Ultramarines

Ultramarine have never said that, only jerk-gamers.

I'm surprised at the hate to the Smurf-marines. 9/10 players I know started off playing as them when they started playing 40k, including me. But they now hate them (I don't, really). Sup with that?

IIRC, it says in the SM codex that every chapter wants to be like ultramarines

Not all. Some chapters care not for the Codex Astartes.

Where? Because it doesn't.

I remember reading something akin to "every codex chapter aspires to be like the perfect ultramaines" or something like that.
