I currently only have 2 squads of warriors. I built one with swords and the other with crossbows, a reaper catapult, and a sorceress on Cold One. But my one group of friends is considering getting back into the game again after focusing just on 40k. And Im not sure I want to play the Druchii any more. These are the armies I was considering in the order that I like them:

1. Wood Elves
2. Tomb Kings
3. Chaos Daemons
4. Beasts of Chaos

Any suggestions on which one would be best to start with if I do get back into WFB?

That really depends on your playing style. I'm personally a fan of Tomb Kings myself. The models are cool (minus the old skeleton warriors... some new ones like VC would be nice) plus you can do things like have an all cavalry army or an all chariot army. The Screaming Skull Catapult is also fairly nasty.

If you're rusty on the rules I wouldn't recommend Wood Elves, unless you won't mind losing for first several games. They're a bit of a challenge, but some people enjoy that.

Yeah I do love the fluff of the wood elves.

Daemons. Top of the class right now, so you can't go wrong with them.

Wood Elves.

Playing Daemons will end up in you losing all of your gaming friends.

Nah, just play handicap games, as in, I can play 2000 vs your 2250 to make things "fair".
