I have a hard choice before me.

Should I create my own chapter using Blood angles rules.

A Space Wolves Chapterish thing.

Or

Go with the Tau Sept I have been mentally creating.

All three have been mentally created, they have extensive fluff and all are equally enticing to me. if requested I can give more info on the three. so far the Space wolves are the less appealing just because the concept for the Chapter is the least created.

So members of Dakka,

What say you.

Tau!

There are lots of marines, so go with something different. Tau are very fun once you put some time into learning them. Not having an autowin tactic means you have to think about each move carefuly which keeps the games varied.

Also remember: static = dead. The patient hunter moves as his prey does, striking where it is alone/unable to call for help.

Now I'll finally be able to trap that preteen girl! Thanks, Kurgash!

all right, thanks guys. Thats what I was leaning towards because of the SMurf masses.

Tau- don't follow the crowd!

do what you want most. but bear in mind creating your own chapter can be alot of fun regardless if its following a crowd. The main thing is that you enjoy yourself

QFT, do what you like. I had so much fun creating my own Dark Angels chapter, it really gave the army life. Angels of Vengeance for the win!!

To be honest brah it's hard for us to say. You have to remember in the long run you'll be the one building, painting and playing them. Even if some guys on dakka said it was cool doesn't mean you will. Already because of the way you semi-discarded the wolves idea I would think you have preferences so what I would do is when you've got the time sit down for 15 minutes or so and just weigh up the pro's and con's. Anyway because you seen so enthusiastic about them all I'm sure whatever you choose you will like them. Hope this vague half-pointless message is helped in any way at all.

EDIT: double post sorry

Thank you all very much for the help. I am a firm believer in do what I want, I just wanted some opinions. I decided to hold off on starting my army for now, I heard rumors that Inquisitor is the next codex so Ill wait for more concrete info. I have always loved the Sisters just never started them because I hate Pewter models.

So instead we started my wives army this weekend.

Ill post a picture of the Tygron she painted later if you would check it out I would greatly appreciate it.

Go Tau. We can all use more GEQ, esp. Tau players, simply for variety's sake.

I say go with your own chapter with the bloo angels codex.
