Subject: Which Themed Army Would You Pick? And Why?
|

Pauper with Promise

I have alot of ideas for building armies and most of them are themed.
This isnt a 'pick my next army' thread. Most will be made at some point by me anyway.
Even if only in small forces for abit of variety.
Im after opinions on these options.
So out of these- Which would you pick and why? (please give reasons)
Eldar- Iyanden Wraiths + Aspects
Chaos Marines - Nugle Death Guard
Chaos Marines - Tzeentch THousand sons
Orks - Speed Freeks
Space Marines - Blood Angels Assault
Space Marines - Legion of the Damned
Necrons - General All Robot force
Daemonhunters - Grey Knights
Chaos Daemons - All Tzeentch
Tyranids - Nid-Zilla and Stealers
Thanks in advance

I like my themes a bit more "out there". I've previously (in a former life) started a World War 2 German themed Ork force and thought about a World War 2 US themed Cadian force... There are lots of great themes in the Dakka P&M blogs...

Well i picked Tzeentch CSM cause i have them and man they are a blast to play. I also have Grey Knights so that would be my second choice. Talk about a challenge to play and win with havent yet.

Legion of the Damned all the way! I miss the days of deep striking my rhinos...at least there are some official rules for them out there in some capacity
|
-Any terrain containing Sly Marbo is dangerous terrain.
-Sly Marbo once played an objective mission just to see what it was like to not meet every victory condition on his own.
-Sly Marbo bought a third edition rulebook just to play meat grinder as the attacker.
-Marbo doesn't need an Eldar farseer as an ally; his enemies are already doomed
-Sly Marbo was originally armed with a power weapon, but he dropped it while assaulting a space marine command squad just so his enemies could feel pain
-Sly Marbo still attacks the front armor value in assault, for pity's sake. |

I think he means no one in his area plays Tzeentch CSMs. I am the only one in my area that either plays or attends tournaments with them.

I played an Iyanden-themed army once, and it is definitely a pain in the arse for people to go against. When the lowest Toughness in your entire army is 6...
