So as of now I want to start an Empire army but I still have my Tomb King but I can only have one Fantasy army right now.

All I want to know is why I should keep Tomb Kings or go Empire???

I would go for empire atm, just because the tomb kings army book is the oldest and apparently one of the harder ones to work with and they say they will be releasing a new edition in fall next year witch will probably come along with a bunch of new models so if you start collecting now then find out that the types of units your collecting won't be the best with the new army book or that the new models are just better then you'd basically have to start over.

Some of the Tomb Kings stuff just doesnt work in the new edition anymore. For example since there's no "charge and you get Always Strikes First", Bone Giants are seriously lacking due to their low initiative. And resing Undead with Tomb Kings is alot less efficient than Vampire Counts, as well as alot of tomb king models costing an arm and a leg now in terms of money.

I've always wanted to start an Empire Knight army, since they're the opposite of Bretonnians: hard hitting heavy cavalry compared to the faster but lighter Bretonnian knights. The newer models (especially the Empire Mecha-Horse) are just stunning.

Get an empire, but hold on to the TK if you can because they're supposed to get a new book next year.
