Honestly though, I like pretty much all the Guard regiments. They're all pretty cool in their own ways. Still, I like Mordians the best because they're just so freakin' ballsy. They go to war in dress uniforms and basically have decided that cover is totally lame and not to be used except in the direst of circumstances. Its a shame that they've fallen out of favor with GW.

It was tough for me to pick my top five because I love them all. Sorry Vostroyan lovers, they are at the bottom of my list.

1) My own! Best part about the Guard. Ashfallen 21st Stormcrows. (Yeah, I know, I know, lame answer...)
2) Elysian Drop Troopers
3) Death Korps of Krieg
4) Savlar Chem-Dogs
5) Maccabean Janissaries

Of course, there's plenty more I like, too. So many regiments, so little space...

In terms of visual aesthetics, Cadia.


Valhallan in terms of character.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

1.) Vostroyans (My Regiment. Enough said.)
2.) Armageddon Steel Legion (Almost started this regiment before the Vostroyans were released, very close second place.)
3.) Valhallan (Love the winter theme of this force.)
4.) Death Korps of Krieg (I mean, they look amazing.)
5.) Tallarn (Awesome desert raiders look. Really like them.)

Honorable Mention:
Catachans (Look cool, but their proportions throw me off every time. Still love their fluff.)
Elysian Drop Troopers. (Amazing looking models, but Forgeworld does amazing models across the board, so no surprise. I like the airborne theme as well.)

That's mine. Take it easy for now.
