Alright, here is what i have so far.

I really love the Grey Knights, Black Templars and maybe the Dark Angels. I like the knight theme with their robes and swords so much. I love the color scheme of the black templars. The white and black really looks amazing on space marines. So the grey knights i love with their super customized armor with inscriptions and all. The dark angels have awesome robes and a lot of sword use and cool miniatures. Buuut the green really sucks. So i heard the Fallen have a black white scheme as well. That would make them pretty awesome as well.

Maybe there are others that i missed but i really need some help deciding. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9277495.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9277495.page GMT Need some help deciding my army
If I were you, I'd go with the Black Templars as your first army: as far as crunch goes you have access to all of the SM toys so you'll be able to make quite a comp army. If you are really craving the GK look or the DA robes you can always do some conversions: DA robes body, GK helmet, BT colour scheme.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9277611.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9277611.page GMT Need some help deciding my army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9277612.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9277612.page GMT Need some help deciding my army

Aesthetics seems to be an importanty concern for you and on that note, my personal favorite look among the three is Grey Knights.

Black Templars are not an excellent force among the options available as competitive builds go whereas Dark Angels have been doing exceedingly well at tournaments, better than the other two. So mayhap the Dark Angel option with the black scheme would make the most sense and please you the most among those choices in the long run? I agree, the swishing robes do look pretty cool as well.

They always get a ton of great stuff and are never in danger of being bottom tier, what with being the poster boys and all.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278551.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278551.page GMT Need some help deciding my army
They are your toy soldiers. Do what you want with them. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278569.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278569.page GMT Re:Need some help deciding my army
Another thing you could do is take one of the lesser known chapters which you can then flesh out the backround for. For example there is a chapter called the 'Sable Swords' which have the black armour with white trim that you like. From their name it is likely that they are a Dark Angels or Imperial Fists successor chapter so would be quite characterful for them to have all the robes and swords which you also like.

The great thing about doing this is you have more freedom about which model you use rather than being limited by the character of the well documented chapters. e.g. Black Templars hating psychic people so can't have Librarians, Dark Angels having lots of fast attack stuff etc.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278737.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278737.page GMT Need some help deciding my army http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278833.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9278833.page GMT Need some help deciding my army DA successor?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9279227.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721894/9279227.page GMT
