I'll echo what some have said with the Possessed. They just look soooo amazing. With a good roll they can be pretty damn potent. I also love lesser daemons. For 130 points I always find a good use for them. I guess if I'm gonna play chaos I'm gonna have daemons.

Looking for fun articles on painting, tactics and wargaming? Are you after a new regular blog to follow? Are you a bit bored with nothing better to do?
If the answer to any of the above is 'well, I guess' you could probably do worse than read my blog! Regular wargaming posts, painting and discussions

Flash Gitz. Most people don't even give them a second look, but the idea of a unit of Nobs armed to the teeth with über-shootas is just too cool to let it go.

Oh Man, being an ork player, I have SO many guilty pleasure units. The nice thing of course is that most of them are actually good units to, and if they are only mediocure, I still have plenty of points left over for the game winners.
Old codex I always toyed around with a battlewagon that had maximum big shootas, big gunz, and loading it up with flashgitz. Massive dakka.
My current guilt is a 19 'Ard boyz (including PK Nob) + Pk-Warboss in a Battle Wagon.
Storm Boyz also seem to make their way into my finalized list, no matter what I do. It's weird, they just always show up no matter how much I try to write them out, there they are.

My Genestealer Cultist army that counts as tyranids, but since I want to stay true to the fluff of the stealer cults I can't field anything that count as a tyranid warrior, a carnifex or indeed anything that moves faster than infantry. So I use masses of broodbrothers (=spinegaunts) and stealers to fight the enemy. I usually loose grinning happily.
A single Thunderfire Cannon. I rarely kill or even threaten anything with it, but I've scratchbuilt it myself and am so proud over it that I bring it along most every time I play my marines.

For my Chaos: My heavily converted dreadnought, who is super awesome and goes nuts all the time.
For my Eldar, a nice big unit of warp spiders.
I love the Exarch model and I have a pretty unique paint job on them, so I have a hard time justifying leaving them behind.

Thanks, Vindicator. I know a guy who plays Tzeentch-themed CSM. He does fine against more "casual" players, but I don't honestly think there's any way to use them "competitively."

I don't know why. They just scream Imperial Guard for me, and always have. I mean, I know Valkyries are oh oh so much better, but...
Nothing says "Mechanized Guard" to me like having Sentinel outriders guarding the flanks.

Formerly, I would take a Lord Commissar with a Power Fist. He was just a cool model and I couldn't leave him behind!
More recently, I take "Superfexes"... Really kitted-out carnifexes with something like 100 points of extra biomorphs. What isn't cool about three 200 point monstrous creatures massacring a bunch of space marines?
