Orks - Power klaw (big surprise eh?)

Marines - Rockets! in rockets I trust.

Favorite wargear...the targetter...1 pt and I can premeasure all shooting ranges to all enemies...MONEY.

Favorite weapon...the cheesiest one in the game...the NFW...Abaddon what?...one wound and he dead...haha.

**Sandyman11**

Favourite two pieces of wargear: MotW and Wolf Standard, pop the latter in the first/second combat, and BOOM!, target unit as good as dead, and your GHs effectively gain a 2+ armour save, and you can use it to make (almost) sure you don't completley fluff up your MotW roll.
Favourite Weapon: Powerfists, just basically awesome, your opponent thinks it's all over than WHAM, 2-3 more guys of his dead.
Favourite Unit: Grey Hunters. I'd say IMO the best troop unit in the game, or close enough, if equipped and played right.

**Ail-Shan**

Commander: Fuegan. Well, any Phoenix Lord really (in almost all my lists that I like), but Fuegan is pretty high up there.

Wargear:
cc: A wraithsword. I'm S10 and re-roll to hit. Die!
Ranged: Pulse lasers are almost always there. If not I have a doom weaver. Twin linked I-kill-you-during-your-turn.
Otherwise: Holo-fields. Runes of warding may be mean, but holo-fields cause no end of frustration for my opponents.

Gotta have my PoPs!

Gotta have my TH/SS and melta. Gotta have my Vulkan model! Mix the two and PROFIT!

**Brettila**

Hard to go wrong with a demon weapon on my lord. I can be S5, or cause instant death or use poison, up to 10 times! (No Khorne flakes for me, thanks!) For CC I've always loved the chainfist. Gods it seems like it would be fun to weild. However, having units with single lightning claws is most destructive. For shooting, I have always daydreamed about having my own assault cannon. I know there are more powerful guns out there. But, to see it spinning whilst spitting unending fire, ala the shooting trees scene in Predator would really kick ass.

Exactly what I was going to say. Powerklaw, Powerklaw, Powerklaw, Powerklaw!

**tarvos**

Jetbikes! I have to have the Dark Angel's Jetbike, the one with the storm bolters and plasma cannon underneath it? Yeeeea, its the trifecta of perfect tech, Floating bike, automatic mini rockets and a cannon that fires star-stuff.

Close combat? Hrm, Chain Axes!

**FUUUUDGE!**

For my eldars, bright lances and scatterlasers,the lasers make troops (mainly the imperial guard) cry,and lances will blow a hole in your kan wall anyday.

**Black Corsair**

CC: Powerfists! for the guard (very often, but is my fav choice) as for de Mehreeens! (especially Tac Squads) and meltabombs

ranged: plasma gun, missile launchers (versatility>power), not to mention boltguns and lasguns, for those ones are default equipment

never leave house without one LRBT at least...

**JSK-Fox**

I would definately need my trusted little storm bolter and relic blade, and why would I ever forget my Power Armour? I would need some melta-bombs too, and maybe a little old storm shield in case things get hairy. Also, a sniper rifle would be great. I'd even get a company standard, just to ensure I survive. Can't forget my Land Raider though, in case I need a quick lift.

Heh, you REALLY ought to play guard with an endless throng of just lasgunners with frag grenades and meltabombs (these add a little power, I know, I'm sorry). There is no more versatile army in the game. After all, why have powerful weapons when they'll just wind up being effective against what you use them against?

Also, I should have noted in my original post, as a guard infantry commander I no longer leave home without lots of commissars as well. No real reason to run a guard infantry list without them.

for an unknown reason, my guardsmen really seems to have "balls of steel" i can count with one hand the times they fleed.... so, for me comissars are more a good way to put a powerfist in the field, or just to put some minis variety.... anyway its always good to prevent....

my army lacks of heavy weapon teams, they're just one or two, missile launchers are deployed with the guardsmen, less chance to hit, but that means that can shoot against more target at the same time..., and being missile launchers that means they can deal against anything but the heaviest. I dont have a HUGE mass of troops, but enough to handle maybe everything, not to mention my LRBTs support...

**kirsanth**

Boneswords
Lashwhips
Rupture Cannons

Not too many other options I look at very often.

**waaagh!orksrocks**

Hi

Well thanks to a little piece of background I wrote at least one thunder hammer, usually three.

Ranged would have to be the sniper rifle remember: If their shooting the scouts, their not shooting the terminators.

And, last but by no means least, wargear: I am going to have to say digital weapons. As I say: Just in case.

Although I do rather like my meltabombs, they never do anything, but Just in case.

Bye
Waaagh!

**Smarteye**

Powerfists are a must ever since I lost 2 entire Tactical squads to a single dreadnought. Back in the days where you had to BUY grenades... ahhh memories.

**asimo77**

Gauss...not like I have much of a choice.

Though I like the phylactery, phase shifter, and res orb. And I always stick with the staff of light

**Saintspirit**

My guiding Farseer and my Dark Reapers. I love killing marines with Ap 3 and re-rolled misses. So much enjoyment!
Though I usually need a prism to first blow up their eventual transport... Or use the exarch's fast-shooting EML (two krak missile at BS 5 and to hit re-rolling? Yes, please!).
