As the title says...
I am looking for a Chapter that would work best with my Imperial Guard, I am assuming it is the Imperial Fists but my friend says it was the Ultramarines. Which are the most friendly?

I would say Salamanders, Space Wolves, Ultramarines in that order. Celestial Lions were, and the inquisition wiped them out for it. Don't know much about Fists.
My Slaaneshi marines tend to be... affectionate, but probably not in the way you're looking for.

I notice my posts seem to bring threads to a screeching halt. Considering the content of most threads on dakka, you're welcome. |

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

I totally agree with the previous lists but I'd have to add Blood Angels right up there with as friendly as the Ultramarines. I just got that vibe reading the omnibus.

Saving civilians is not only a major goal of any military operation of the Salamanders, but they will and have laid down their lives for normal humans multiple times.

Salamanders care about normal human lives but that does not necessarily make them the friendliest. It's well established that the ultra marines welcome pilgrims to their Fortean monetary ie normal humans can literally visit ultra marines HQ, not sure any other chapter is cool with that.

Blood Ravens are perfectly friendly! Why, I even invited them over for dinner, to show off my fine chinaware.... wait, where did everything go?
Actually, despite the Blood Ravens' best intentions, most everybody, regular humans included, seems to hate them. Might be because of that whole "purge an Imperial Guard unit for getting too close to Chapter secrets thing", I don't know.

Or the whole Thousand Sons descendants conspiracy from the Inquisition. Or maybe it's the voice acting.

Salamanders are probably the best you're going to find for getting along with regular, everyday folks.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised. |

Just make your own chapter and call them the "friendly marines". We'll be making somewhat funny internet pictures about them in no time.
