I've got Black Templar's, when i was first picking i wanted something different then Blood angels and Ultramarines, So i did a little searching and for some reason BT's stuck out to me like a sore thumb. So i read about them and looked around GWs and found they have the upgrades. So was a pretty easy pick for me. But what does everyone else run? Why did you pick them?

Phoenix, AZ, USA

I have a 2nd ed Legion of the Damned army I run as either Codex Marines (a stand in for Deathwatch) or Space Wolves (because they fit my models' wargear loadout better), depended on what I want to play it the time.

But my main army in 5th are the Knights of the Word (Grey Knights), which I've been running since 5th came out (first as CH, now as C:GK).

Between the two armies, they share three gun metal painted Land Raiders that are magnetized so each can be fielded as any of the three codex configurations.
