Word Bearers in the 3rd Edition. After the end of them and the Tyranid-desaster, I`ve played a number of AdMech-fandexes until FW made the Taghmata with Extermination. Than a couple of games with the awkward 40k-Admech-books and since the red book came out Ordo Reductor in 40k and 30k.

Well, mine is the Space Marines in general, thanks to the Dawn of War games. They were just the most versatile army in their and when I learned about the tabletop game, I learned that they were also versatile. So I bought the Dark Vengeance starter and got the Space Marines while my friend got Chaos.

It was a mix of Orks, Imperial Guard, and Tyranids. I only play two out of those three, but just the way all of the armies looked and played just pushed all the right buttons for what I consider a great background and playstyle, so I got more and more into the game.

When I first started, it was collecting only. At that time (2002-ish), I was interested in Dark Eldar. There was something about the models that appealed to me.

Years later (2009-ish) when I started actually playing, it was Tyranids.
