Imperial guard. A foe army watching a locust of humans , tanks walkers and air support coming over a hill followed by a huge barrage of death being lobbed through the sky onto their heads..... pretty much their worst nightmare

Oh Bjorn, I'm so glad you left the Space Wolves. You were way too epic for them.

Gratuitous link to funny article if you're not sure what I'm talking about!) http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/13696742/

Whenever I think of the GK, it's always this image.

If I'm going to name units in a non-trolling attempt:

IG: A guardsman, preferably being nom'd by something or dying in a huge human wave attack... horribly. (I'm of the opinion that Guard are cool because they die in droves but keep coming).

Eldar: The Guardian, hence the thumbnail I posted earlier... I blame DoW 2 for this, the Guardians just have such awesome lines; they really made an impression.

Chaos Space Marines: A Chaos Space Marine. Preferably yelling something cool whilst letting rip with a Heavy Bolter... 'I HAVE FOUGHT YOUR ILK FOR TEN...THOUSAND...YEARS!' Something like that.

Space Marines: A Drop Pod.

When I think of my IG I think of this....

So tyranid? LOLZ

Hive Tyrants, with their whips and swords, along with huge talons.

Commissars, or Leman Russ tanks rumbling around blowing things up.

Legion of the Damned... yeah, when i think codex marines these are the guys i think of.

One day you will get the art of trolling if only you believe

For daemons it has to be the bloodletter

It's only ever Guardians for Eldar if you want to rile them up and insult them, Henners91. I'd say it's either of the two psychers (they're largely interchangeable) or Striking Scorpion Exarch (since he is so prominent on 4th ed cover and is also the main focus in the only decent Eldar fluff-book to date).
So here's a Warlock

For Imperial Guard it is the commisar, in my opinion.

Actually, when I think Eldar, i think Maugan-Ra or Dark Reapers.. whenever i play DoW, I load up my army with the reapers (i dont play eldar on TT, else i would probably use them even if they suck)

When thinking of the Imperial Guard I always imagine the noble profile of the Leman Russ!

Guardians are pretty cool if you ask me... though mostly aesthetically rather than from a fluff/gameplay PoV... guess they're pretty fail there.




I do have a soft spot for Striking Scorpions though.

for me, my ork icon would be the burna. a full squad going into battle with a backpack full of potential explosives/flamable material in a badly made trukk wrecklessly barreling at the enemy

as for my spacve marines... not the most popular unit but I think of the legion of the damned. they are basically space marines to the space marines. what I mean by that is you have the imperium and the IG space marines will show up tear stuff up then leave saving the sday and then moving on to their next mission. whereas the legion when even the space marines are down and unabel to continue sometimes show up fight off the threat and leave before even the marines of the inquisition knows what happened
