Honestly I dont want to do Imperial Faction of the Edition as my next army.
What do you guys reccommend that isnt Eldar or Necrons?

**TheCustomLime**

Orks.

Orks WAAAAGH!!!!!!

**Taffy17**

Who doesn't love Orks?

**rowboatjellyfanxiii**

Well Orks do look fun, but given what I've heard of their codex...

Probably just collecting.

**Grubass**

Green is best.
Deldar
Lego empire

My personal top 3 xenos at all times

**TheCustomLime**

Green tide formation can be brutal. It's not Orks are completely worthless in 7ed. It is just that they are very hamstrung in what choices they can take. That said, your goal should always to pick an army you'll enjoy.

**rowboatjellyfanxiii**

Well, I think Tau might be good, considering their coming new stuff.

But always Farsight.

Never without.

**DirtyDeeds**

Dark eldar grotesques from the haemonculus book are large squads of hulks! Lots of fun!

You should collect Tau then, but wait until the new Codex drops to see if you like the changes.

**Pain4Pleasure**

Dark eldar. The true eldar.

Considering every codex released in 2015 has ranged from Good to OMG OP!, I think collecting Tau would be safe no matter what.

**hanshotfirst**

yknow i like fan made armies like eldar exodites and savage orks and Codex-angry hippys

**GoliothOnline**

What ever you do don't collect CSM. You'll thank yourself in 10 years when they're still the bastardized army that never got a real rework

**alex0911**

Go with tyranids... why did i sell them :(

They are balanced, have nice models and can be really competitive !

Everything we want

**Chaos Legionnaire**

Thousand Sons. You know you want to....

Or orks of course.

**Gamgee**

Tau, Dark Eldar, or Tyranids.

**JimOnMars**

You might wait on Tau...if the new book is ridiculously strong you might get more eye rolls than games.

I vote OOOOORKS

Don't worry, one day GW will retcon all CSM victories, meaning that CSM were always supposed to be this terrible

**NoiseMarine with Tinnitus**

CSM, if the fluff is to be believed we have done so much yet achieved so little - perhaps my army is a damning reflection of my life?

**r_squared**

No imperial, necron or eldar, that narrows it considerably.
What do you currently play and what are you looking for?
If you already play a competitive army and want a change then the only thing that matters is aesthetics, what do you like the look of?
If you want another competitive army, wait until after the tau codex drops, sounds like that might be your bag anyway.
If you want a challenge, then orks, csm and Dark Eldar would probably suit.

Fixed that for you.

**Frozocrone**

Can never go wrong with Orks.

Include a poll for people to vote on!

**GAdvance**

Orks, codex isn't half as bad as people say anyway, you'll probably have lots of very close losses with them if you just run at the enemy

Dark Eldar if you just wan't to look cool, probably the most unusual army to see on tables as well

**Sgt_Smudge**

Orks. No-one will hate you for orks.

Why is it that any time I think of a negative response in this sort of context, it's always due to past experiences with Ultramarine players?

Well, here goes my response...

I know people who would seriously deride anyone for choosing the "cockney" faction. I never knew it was possible to hate Orks, until I found these guys. But, some people do.

**oldzoggy**

Chaos deamons with lots of fun conversions and units you never see on the table.
