I should note now that you (the other posters) shouldn't take me 100% serious. While I do dislike Gaurd for it's place in the top tier *cough*TR4Q*cough*, it's not as horrendous as I make it sound.
I picked Wyche Hunters because I can't stand the faith point shenanigans and the codex was completely written for a different version of the rules and many of the powers are grossly different now, like the Book of ignore morale modifiers in hand to hand, or D6 AP1 guns, or rallying under 50% automatically, or custom hit and run rules, instant rending. The whole army is an abomination of unique special rules.
Faith points are a stupid concept, Eldar Guardains would be great with all those spontaneous abilities to fit any situation.
I think faith point are a good idea, they make up for the fact that SoBs don't have psyker support and make up for not being as strong as Marines and not as numerous/resourceful as Guard.

You know, I hadn't thought about it that way, but you just changed my mind sir.
I am now reliving my annoyance that I felt during every game I have ever played against Sisters, and I have to go lay down.

Also, how many points is the IG wall of missile doom? I would love to field that some time. For purely watching my opponents face alone.

My vote is for Guard, simply because I play guard and a non-objective Guard vs. Guard game is very boring. It usually ends up being large amounts of infantry taking shots at each other from across the board in buildings, whale tanks and chimeras drive around shotting one another and the game goes to whoever can win the small tank battle.

I guess I've just played against them too often. And while I have beaten them with my Orks a line of Battlesuits/Broadsides can ruin your game before it starts.
That's what you get for bringing vehicles to a railgun fight after all.
Personally I hate having to fight imperial guard. Not because of anything more than it's one of the few people I can get ahold of to play against, and that going against it (infantry guard) makes my tau such something awful. Oh that and the player loathes doing kill points or dawn of war setups and demands a reroll if it comes up.

Funny to see everyone hate playing against Space Wolves. In my group, we have only one Space Wolf army and I love facing them. I almost always win but he puts up a really good fight, sometimes he even kills some of my favorite models.
I hate facing Eldar, really the only army (that I've gone up against thus far) that I dislike. Damn things just will not die and they like to rape everything I love. I'll get revenge against him with my shiny new Dark Eldar, maybe.

Holy gak that is an awesome username. Please tell me your army is called Kabal of the Fragile Breath. Morathi's Darkest Sin has some competition here for best handle, I think. |

Well, Space Wolves are nothing if not tough. So... is it the players? What does that say about us?
MUAHAHA, look at all that IG hate...
Also, the times I've played sisters, I've been astounded by faith points, it just messes my mind up. "We call down our belief in our false god and gain shining invincible shields! BECAUSE WE'RE WOMEN!" Wierd.

I have some one who does the same thing! He refuses to play dawn of war, but it is the oposite with the missions. He will only play kill points!
I hate kill points on IG Vs. IG, because it is just so static. It was a much more fun game the time we did objectives, because both of us had to move our infantry around, and it resulted in a muxch more fun game.
