Quite Simple really. Let's be honest, the DA Codex sucks, and it sucks a LOT.

However, with Space Wolves now able to run Loganwing and actually do it BETTER (60 Scoring Terminators rather than just 30), what codex do you use?

Dark Angels, because when I started I couldn't find a Space Wolves codex. I also like the fluff and color scheme of the DA.
Besides, maybe there is hope for Terminators in a new DA codex being sweet...

I use Dark Angels codex untill Codex:Fallen Angels released....

I believe "play dark angels" mean "love dark angels fruff".

Loganwing is OK. But never call them "Deathwing" it do insult DA players.

The trick is that having all the options to run the SW termies isn't feasible with a painted DW army.

I may consider doing some combi weapon options with my 53 DW termies.

Well I stick with the Dark angel players, their resolution might bring around a new codex for them which won't suck. I will also give them mad props for doing well with an underpowered codex.

It brings a tear to my eye, that people can avoid the temptation to run a "Wolfwing" army and stick to glorious "Deathwing."
Now, to bring the Fallen to the glorious light of redemption.

No option for Tomb Kings?

Geez... none of you have imaginations it seems...

Would you have preferred a Chaos Space marine option? I know you are a fan...

What is the word 'option' doing in the same sentence as 'Chaos Space Marine'?

They can Deep Strike with Drop Pods.

Ye i know that so you have to buy a drop pod after upgrading to terminator armour to deepstrike and should the mission require it is also another kill point no ill stick to a 215 point terminator squad with either power fists or thunder hammers/lightning claws and the deepstrike ability

I will be a Dark Angel player until the day I die, or until they remove my codex completely. My poor lost and the damned army :(

Besides, its complete blasphemy to go to a "rival" army just because they have better options at the time. Its like those people who switch sports teams every time their current team is loosing. Had no idea my office had so many Saints fans. People like that disgust me, as they have no sense of loyalty.

I couldn't agree more. I've been a Space Puppy for 11 years now, even when things were bad and we had a codex that was overcosted and broken (and not in the good way) while things like T'au got not one, but TWO codexes before us.

DA all the way, never give the space puppies anything to brag about!!

Dark Angels... Though I've been using and abusing the regular Space Marine codex somewhat as well with my force composition/options/etc.
