Agreed. Something about hardened veterans who have seen countless campaigns and remain as the final survivors of their regiment yet they continue to serve the Emperor is just awesome fluff wise. In game, they are also my favorites because I love the ability to tailor them to any situation I need them to take care of.

I can't help but laugh whenever I see one of those.
We had a Witch Hunters player back in 3rd who would hum a ridiculous little song whenever he went to shoot them.

They are definitely a useful and effective unit.
It's just between the odd image of a pipe organ firing devastating barrages and the memory of that players little song, it's a highly amusing part of the game to me.

He's a 60 year old man with a twelve foot long chainsaw sword that just cut your land raider in half. And he's so filled with insanity and bile that he gives everyone around him the "Hatred - EVERYBODY!" special rule.

The goddamn DEATH COMPANY. Especially with Tycho and/or Lemartes attached.
For serious, this unit has Rage, Furious Charge, Fleet, Feel no Pain, Relentless, AND are fearless.
They are WS 5, and come with two attacks base. On the turn that they charge, they will have five attacks each, be hitting on 3's, wounding on 3's and re-rolling for BOTH. All this and for what, 20pts a model (only five more than a normal marine)?!
This is absolutely ridiculous face-poundingly awesome.

Hear hear, the new models are amazing. Too bad about their questionable loadout but I can at least work with that. Shame Chaos never gets the same treatment as C: SM. Imagine how good chosen would be then...

Nothing is as awesome in my head as what Stealth suits could be if they had half decent guns. They're the box on the shelf that got me into the game too.

Liche Priest Hierophant

Gamewise:
Herald of Slaanesh with Beguilement and Greater Etherblade.
Re-rolls to hit, forces you to accept challenges with the model I like, high weapons skill and initiative, striking with a mastercrafted AP 2 weapon at normal initiative...
all for 95pts... screw you everyone XD
if independent characters don't count, then either Seekers or Fiends... both are extremely fast and like screwing your day up with a feth load of rending attacks at a high WS and I...
Fluff wise:
Hard Choice, would have to say either Warpsmith or Maulerfiend...
Model-wise:
Warpsmith, hands down. Epic looking model.

um they stopped having goofy wound allocation. Though you can move one model forward/back and play with it still.
For me? The Whole damn ork model line. You're armys level of badass is directly proportional to the pile of bits you have stored around. Favorite unit? Boyz. They come prepared for everything, and pretty good at it too.

Stealthy Dark Angels Scout with Shotgun
So. Cal. (IE)
|
Shotgun-totin' Space Marine Scouts. We can give them sniper rifles, or (effectively) grenade launching pistols or assault weapons. We can give them missile launchers and even heavier "grenade launchers". Hell we can even give them sharp hunks of metal to stab and rend their opponents.
Instead, let's just give them a short range tube that violently explodes shrapnel in the enemies' face.

Two favorites,
The Daemonhunters Heirophant with Eviscerator they don't make any more (sadly).
And Commissar Yarrick. I am always tempted to make an IG army just because of him.
