Every Dakkanaught gets a 4+ Pinch of Salt save.
When you suffer a Falling Sky hit, roll a D6 - on a 4+ the hit is ignored as per the Pinch of Salt save. On a 1-3 panic insues - you automatically fail common sense tests for the next 2 weeks and get +7 to your negativity stat. -Praxiss

Good old Mk VII Aquila Armour for me. It was 'the thang' when I got into 40K, so that's just what a SM should look like in my mentality. However, thanks to FW new releases, the Mk III Iron Armour is coming in at a close second.

I had to go with the harsh, brutal lines and heavy plates of Mk3 armor. Mk4, 6, 7, and 8 seem to svelt for what are supposed to be implacable shock troopers, and Mk5 is just a cobbled together stopgap mess.

MkII because its cool. MkVI because, well, its proper beaky armour.
MkI is Ugly.
MkIII is just MkII+
MkIV I'm nor a huge fan of. It just doesn't look right to me. A bit to Eldar.
MkV is a cobbled to geather stop gap mess. The models show this well, and I want some for my DA force as I think they would have some, but I don't like it.
MkVII & VIII just seem bland to me now.

For me it's a toss up between the Mk. IV and the Mk. VIII, the way it's done on this guy http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2008/11/29/4101_md-Power%20Weapon,%20Space%20Marines,%20Veteran,%20Warhammer%2040,000.jpg

Beakies. Along with angry slogans painted on the armour, a power fist for every sarge, rhino horns wielded onto helmets or "nose art" painted onto those beaks... No toilet paper strips attached to improper places with red chewing gum, no fancy skulls everywhere, no tons of Bling Bling, trinkets and medals. Just a hard working man's equipment. They don't do proper space marines anymore these days.
Okay, but aside an old fart's old school whining, I appreciate the totally expressionless look of those helmets.
