**blood reaper**

Please explain reason , sorry if not all are there.

**Maurin**

I don't think you listed enough choices

I think Typhus has the coolest model. Fluffwise, I'm a big fan of Shrike (Victorus aut Mortis!). Gameplay... not sure

**Peter Wiggin**

Based purely on fluff and aesthetic I'm going with Kharn the Betrayer.

Gamewise I have no idea...prolly whatever is most recent is best. <shrug>

**purplefood**

Bjorn the Fell-Handed.
Lets face it. A dreadnought as a HQ choice. Badass.
Also his fluff is pretty awesome.

**liam0404**

Grimaldus!!! No bias here. None whatsoever. Nope, no sir!

**triplare**

Well I voted for the Swarmlord...because Old One Eye, Deathleaper, Doom of Malan'tai and the Red Terror aren't HQ choices.

**timetowaste85**

Come on guys...the Sanguinor all the way. I mean, they practically set him up as Jesus. Any good Christian on this forum should automatically vote for him

Also, I'm voting Skulltaker as his second in command-Skulltaker removes the heads of false gods *cough-nightbringer*cough*deceiver*cough cough

**scubasteve04**

Lysander and Vulkan all the way

**WarrKing**

Grotsnik! I can have Cybork Bodies on anything! (infantry wise atleast)

Cybork Gretchin!

**Kurgash**

Deceiver! Ultimate Troll of the Galaxy

**asimo77**

I voted for like 6 guys : P

I have to say the new Decapitator fluff is pretty awesome. Him, Vulkan, Ahriman, and the C'tan have the best fluff for special characters IMO

Finally Grimaldus, Pedro, and Ezekiel have some slick models.

**Skarshak**

Ghazghkull Thraka
Marneus Calgar
Abbadon

These are my top 3

Utter failure. blech

**Trickstick**

Nork Deddog, ogryn bodyguard. When he had to get a medipack for his wounded commander he dragged the wrecked chimera containing a medpack back instead. If that doesn't say "hard as nails" i don't know what does. He is also the most loyal character in the entire Imperium.

**jdjamesdean@mail.com**

kugath, Vulkan, T6 4++. FNP lots o wounds oh yes. and well c'mon gotta love the 2+3++

I hope to Gork you're talking about the FW one...

**asimo77**

I didn't know there was FW one, couldn't find it on the site.

What's wrong with a space wizard with a hood? I've never seen the model in person but the GW pic looks pretty nice.

Ehhh, I dunno about most loyal dude. Gunner Jurgen from the Ciaphas Cain novels does some stuff that is pretty awesome. What book is that Ogryn from?

**ToBeWilly**

Belial, Deathwing as troops, c'mon...

**sniperjolly**

No Creed? OK, thats it, I'm abstaining. (I was going to multi-vote, but thats OK)

No book that i know of, just bits and pieces from codices. A good quote would be:

"Da Sergeant Major asked me what my job was an' I said it was to, uh, do what i was told. He said i was a genius and gave me another medal. I likes da Imperial Guard!"

Shows how he is a simple fellow who just loves what he does, no ulterior motives to speak of.

Ahriman has good fluff?
That's news to me.

**Luke_Prowler**

Ghazghkull. e's deadkilly.

**andrewm9**

St Celestine. While she has a huge drawback to taking her. The look my opponent gets when she comes back to life is priceless especially after she deepstrikes back in and flames down a small horde of infantry. Its hard to keep a good saint dead.

**Element206**

Sanguinor

**kronk**

Marbo, because the boogie man checks under his bead at night to make sure Marbo isn't there.

**Grimm**

Baaaaaah....Space Pope.

**Shas'O Dorian**

Shrike. He let's me take 30 TH/SS terminators with fleet!

**Valkarie**

Kugrath, as he can throw nurglings at people and kills in like 1 blow with his sword.

**AlmightyWalrus**

Grimaldus - Only in Death does Duty end!

Oh, and the look on your opponent's face when you get one of those rare templar blob charges combined with assault terminators charging something nearby and Grimaldus pops his Holy Relic... priceless!
