Story wise: Imperial Fists, I like their morality and human streak.

Look wise: Black Templar or Dark Angels, I like the knight and crusader feel to them.

Tough call. I like the Alpha Legion for their unconventional tactics and the Thousand Sons for being individually the most powerful Astartes and their tragic fall. Neither Legion is what they used to before the Heresy, though.

Least favorite would probably be Space Wolves for being uncivilized and superstitious savages, or Word Bearers for being a bunch of tools.

Grey Knights, I remember them for how they were, not who they are now. Where every fight was a desperate struggle against an enemy so foreign they can't even comprehend the structure of their bodies. It's too easy for them nowadays.

Iron hands for their affintiy to technology and the fact that they hate anyone not willing to pick up a gun and fight for themselves.

Walk in the shadows and deliver the Emperor's justice into dark lairs of his enemys. Strike from the shadows and let them fear the very darkness they call home. Embrace the shadows for when all others would be driven mad we shall remain whole.

I like the Space Wolves, just not how they play.

For my new SM army I'm painting it up entirely as Legion of the Damned. I know they are not a full regular chapter but I find them interesting.

Cool enough. Mat Ward has proven to have a good enough grasp of the rules to hit the theme of Chapters.. such as, ya know, giving Blood Angels a focus on assault, Salamanders a focus on fiery close-range firefight, Grey Knights a focus on elite-psyker-brotherhood.

That's already far more than can be said for Kelly who would likely turn it into another utterly uninspired, counter-intutive spam-army or Cruddace who couldn't find his way through basic 40K fluff like the Hive War if he tried and would likely want to turn Templars into a rank-and-file WFB-army anyhow.

I approve!
