I've always found the Eldar to be so cool. Models and fluff. And no one else got them

Also, Dawn of War made me think they were cooler than the imperium because they seemed way more intelligent and not just idiotic Mon-Kiegh

a friend of mine who played space marines (which looked liked space wolves but he swore they weren't) got into the game back when "skulls" ( i think) was fading out - we went to the HQ Store in Glen Burnie,MD and asked me to pick an army - i chose Chaos because the looked cool and now i have an APOC size army with a few units from every mark as well as Smaller armies of Dark Angels, Guard, and Orks

Space Wolves - They are Space Vikings that have the theme of my favorite animal

I originally started with Eldar, but picked up a Daemon Prince because I thought it looked amazing and I wanted to build and paint one. From there I just started building my Daemon army and I love the way they look and oddly enough, I like how they play.

When I first got into 40k, I was feeling the Daemonhunters. I loved the look of GK, but the book was too old, so I left the silver boys alone. I went with the Blood Angels, and man am I happy I went with them! I love my Blood Angels army and I'm slowly building GK now, but BA will always be my favorite army since they have fast vehicles. Right up my ally.
