Personally I think Death Korps of Krieg looks bad ass.

What's your guys fave?

After all these years of searching for Marbo...he found me. Heretics beware! He's back!

DKoK for models, Elysians and Armored Company for fluff. Solution: play Elysian/AC rules with DKoK models.

Also, why I play IG:

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

Steel Legion. Or the original Cadians.

Marneus Calgar is referred to as "one of the Imperium's greatest tacticians" and he treats the Codex like it's the War Bible. If the Codex is garbage, then how bad is everyone else?

Other than that Steel Legion and DKoK because I love the gasmask kind of look.

Cadians: because Guarding the entrance of hell and sending your troops all over the Imperium is not small thing. Also the best trained solders in the Imperium.

Krieg: World War I in space, OVER THE TOP!!!

Valhalla: Soviet Union in space, OVER THE TOP!!!

Elysia: elite French paratroopers in space, just epic.
