I love me my space vikings. My Angry Marines are my fave, but the SW were my first army, adn you don't forget that.

Hate threads come up way to often. I'll say... I LOVE ALL ARMIES! LET'S ALL BE GRIMDARK FRIENDS, BECAUSE LOVE CAN BLOOM!


If I have to choose one I dislike playing it's the Tau. Why?

-Japan hate from the womens world cup... though they deserved to win.

-Best friend who plays 40k plays them (THough his other army is orks, so it's OK.)

-Annoying as hell to play, Getting shot by everything and then jump shoot jump sucks. Especially going into an assault.

-Ends up castleing, kinda dumb.

-Boring game- can you get to them before they die?

-Models are butt ugly.

-Greater good fluff annoys me, same with the 'good guys' theme... kinda grates, but a nice contrast.

-WEABOOS. NEAD I SAY MORE?

Mech IG, GK Spam, and Razorback Spam annoy me. But I live with them, cause the players are cool. Except for fanatical SM players, usually of Smurfs or Grey and Shiny army of doom SM. Hey... that group annoys me on dakka too!

Wow... long rant.

Space wolfs......broken.

But hilarious fun if you play them right (IE don't use units in spam... except GH, as blood claws suck.)

Blood Angels or Grey Knights.

It just started out with Space Wolves and Grey Knights, but now I can't stand pretty much every stripe and colour of SM.

Except the ones of the Chaotic persuasion.

Claws aren't bad, per se, especially if you stuck a bunch of them in a land raider with a wolf priest and go to town on someone's face.

It's just why take them when you have GH for the same cost.

Eldar. Arrogance is probably the one thing I hate more than anything else in this world, and nothing (except maybe certain Chaos Marines) embodies it more than them. Add that to the fact that they STILL think they know best after creating a Chaos God and the Eye of Terror, and you've got a race that just plain grates on me.

The enemies of the Imperium are my least favorite armies.

Like when I play agianst someone (Even friendly games)(The opponent could be the nicest and coolest guy in the world) but for his army....I get in the state where I look at my opponents army and just HATE it. Their rules, looks, EVERYTHING. Even if it is another ORK opponent!

You sound more like ANGRY MARINE than Ork...

Join us, brother!

Anyways, I just saw what I don't like- Spess Mehreen Fanaticism. You guys take yourselves too seriously! Krump somthin'- it's good fer you!

I'm another hater of both smurfs and space wolves fluff wise.

Game wise, I hate nids in a respectable way, they have always kicked my Necrons in the @$$.

Space Wolves - Ever since the HH fluff that hinted that they were the Emperor's executioners, it's just been painful. Every chapter might wish they were Ultramarines, but secretly, the Ultramarines know that they weren't good enough to be the Emperor's final sanction. There's also the fact that their codex uses the word 'wolf' as noun, verb, adverb, adjective, and punctionation. And don't get me started on the use of 'apex predator' or something similar as either a simile or metaphor (Battle of the Fang, I'm looking at you).

Special mention to the Blood Angels for a similar problem. We get it guys, you're into blood.

Twilight Marines (aka Blood Angels)... I don't much care for Sisters of Battle either.

Completely uncalled for Never have the BA sparkled.

They should...

My rankings are as follows:
Worst: Space Wolves (For reasons reiterated on here a dozen times)
Orks (I play Tau, so I may be somewhat biased here)
IG
Vanilla SM
Tau (Rules wise, at least. Only 3 viable lists != balanced codex)
Nids (See Tau reasoning)

Those armor nipples sparkle plenty.

*Breaking out the beads formerly designated as rivets*

Imperial Guard have always pissed me off. Mainly because our local IG player is an a**hole. Worst rule lawyer I've ever played with (but only when it suits him) and he's cocky because he always wins because nobody wants to argue with him. Throw in a really powerful codex and the fact that he spends all his time looking for powerful unit combos and you have a reason to hate IG.

Eldar. They are just so whinny. Plus, they are supposed to be all about "grace" and "beauty" in like everything, yet I hate the look of basically the entire range. The only exception would be harlequins, and even then its probably just their 'eavy metal paint jobs.

Easily chaos space marines. i think they're extremely tacky and over rated and f***ing everyone plays them, i also don't like necrons to much, fluff wise they're kinda cool, but i've never seen them painted any other color than boltgun metal.

I have my complaints about every single army but I also like all of them for their own reasons- I'd probably say my least liked is DE because they're a bad mix of Eldar and Chaos, They can't decide whether they want to be dark-elves or vampires, Their troops are kinda bland appearance wise "ooo look the archon is wearing the enemies face" , and I'm not a fan of their tactics.

I'd like to provide a save for the crons here- Some people do rust colorations and I'm not sure but I think different tombworlds have different army colors.

These ones and Grey Knights -.-

I love Space Wolves for the same reason everyone seems to hate them. Woo!

Anyway, I don't like Eldar going along identical lines of:

What, the broken rules and the fluff that makes them out to be the biggest jackasses since the Word Bearers?

I could see why a Chaos player would hate on the grey knights. \

Model wise? I hate IG (all infantry), Tau (crisis suits/fire warrior shoulder pads only), Grey Knights (Dreadknight only) and Space Wolves

Fluff-wise? I'm pretty OK with everyone's fluff. It's mostly just model aesthetics that I hate. Wild hair really doesn't belong with power armor (IMO) but I love Norse mythology, so the fluffy characters are cool to me (like Thor and Loki and Fenrisian stuff). I love the concept behind IG, I just hate the models. Maybe I'll make an IG army some day with no GW models (or death corps of Krieg-those models are actually great.)

i hate the spandex armor wearing space ninjas of the galaxy AKA THE ELDAR

Tau and Imperial guard. Those damn things just sit there and obliterate my army with godawful firepower and tricks (also because everybody runs the same list with them. Tau have lots of suits and hammerheads and Ig have loads of infranty and basilisk or manticores)
