I'm starting a CSM army and am wondering what you guys think are the coolest looking models, so far my favorite I have seen would be the chaos knight!

Space Marine flyers are shaped for the greatest possible air resistance so that the air may never defeat the SPACE MARINES!
Sternguard though, those guys are all about kicking ass. They'd chew bubble gum as well, but bubble gum is heretical. Only tau chew gum

Raptors/Warp Talons. They are awesome (looking). The dinobots aren't bad either.

Kakophoni (Noise Marines) are sweet! I'm subbing them for my NM with Sonic Blasters for 40k. I like the heavier look of the weapons and the cleaner armor design.

Oozing Plague Marine Terminator

My favorite model for the longest time has been the Night Lord "Hero" model, even tho his current loadout is unplayable. I love the over sized bat wing crest. The skulls and bones and shrunken heads on his shoulders. The pointy power fist fingers. Custom bat skull wing power plant backpack. And the bad ass Combi-flamer pose.
Too bad a single power fist isn't enough these days, and a Combi-flamer is over costed.... right now he is an extra expensive Champion that gets to sit in a dresser.

From FW, Zhufor the Impaler, Sevetar, Gal Vorbak and Marha Gal. GW, possibly Raptors but the entire range needs an overhaul.
|
Please note, for those of you who play Chaos Daemons as a faction the term "Daemon" is potentially offensive. Instead, please play codex "Chaos: Mortally Challenged". Thank you. |

I like Forgeworld's Huron model. Technically it's not Chaos Huron, but it works very well anyway.

Typhus, hands down. I'd repose him so he's standing up, but every detail on him is awesome. He's the only the model I kept after I sold my CSM army.

Is 'Eavy Metal Calling?

And in the spirit of Fantasy models, there are a couple that can (and have) made utterly badass CSM conversions.
Slap a spare power pack on either of these and you've got an awesome Chaos Lord.

My friend HATES all 'non-official gw' rules (I know FW is GW and all legal, but try telling HIM that!)
Are the rules for it by any chance in Escalation book?
Also I quite like the FW dreadnaughts, they look a lot better than the metal bawkes-with legs.

I only know of the rules being in IA 13.
Though with the dreads you could just use them as proxies for hell brutes.
