Favorite Warhammer 40k Faction

[Wellby]

Personally i'm fond of all of them in their own little ways;
Necrons: for being ... mummy robots
Space marines: The classic
Orks: The stupidly adorable race, who will kill you as soon as look at you.
Dark Eldar: For reminding me of the reavers from firefly.
... ok so those are the ones i like, your turn!

 

[BBLIZZARD]

Necrons FTW!
...or Tyranids. They're kick ass too

 

[Fire Daemon]

My favourite would be the Grey Knights. They are like Space Marines plus 20 in awesomeness (and points unfortunately). They are also pretty original and look the best on the battlefield. Battle Sister are good too because of their originality compared to the other armies, although they lack in the awesomeness factor.

I think this should be in off-topic. Ask a mod to move it.

The Best, The Biggest, The Baddest...

The Bugs...

Tyranids rule, a powerhouse on the board and a whole bunch of fun to paint and collect.

Oh, and they eat entire galaxies. Just as a footnote.

That said, them not making it into any video games is a giant *****.

I'd have to say my favorate faction is Imperial Guard as tanks are awesome

 

[darthsmily]

I happen to love Imperial Guard because of the fact that they have the toughest job in the universe, fodder.

[Tzalador]

Eldar... They are Eldar for crying out loud, what more is there to say!?

 

[RidleyValiant]

Tau - For the greater good

 

[ragvaror]

Space Marine's for me.

Altho Necron's are awesome.

ya, and necrons get that whole "most likely not to die" thing (when they die they have 20 percent chance of getting back up or somethign like that

 

[Archaeology Hat]

Going to have to be marines. Dark angels in particular.

In DoW 2?

Well, i cant see my favorite bug-lizards fitting with the character driven story or gameplay... but im not complaining. What kind of story can what is basically a single character have? If they break canon and give them individual thought... oh i will be pissed so much i will hurt people.

however, its time to prepare myself...

I have bought a gigantic fucking hammer... for the beating of every starcraft-sucking nooblet (i like starcraft however) who says they are Zerg imitations.

We have seniority asshats, get in line and feel the hive-mind.

Well technically Hive Tyrants can safely be considered individuals, although still controlled by the hive mind. But yeah i'm interested in that too, however the screenshots (and the extended version of the trailer, which includes the 'nids) are totally badass.

As for the Zerg, originally the game that became StarCraft was based on 40K's IP, GW pulled out of the deal and Blizzard reworked it to what it is today. So the Zerg were Tyranids originally. Tyranids have seniority in every possible way.

As to my favorite faction, i'd have to say Tyranids or Daemons. Both world-devourers, if for different reasons and quite awesome.

Im really boring ULTRAMARINES FTW simply because marneus calgar is way overpowered. Although im interested in collecting either orks or IG for a while. I've been toying with idea of converting cadians into a planetary defense force for macragge and counting them as scouts.

also ive heard that the gaming engine for DOW 2 is going to be the same one as the one for COH is this true?
