Which 40K race do you side with?

[Exocet]

I'm going to go with necrons.They are pseudo-invincible beings driven by the need to eradicate life in the universe,adn will only stop when a God orders them to.
Nobody else can win.Eventually,they will achive their goals.

However,IG came close second.Facing the worse the universe has to offer with flak suits and a shiny piece of metal.Respect.

Imma gonna be a Spacemarine!

Seriously though, the Skaven are badass and my personal favorite.
Why are they not in 40K?

...Dark Eldar will spontaneously combust if you stare at them long enough, the Necrons will just up and leave if you know what to shoot long enough, and the Chaos Daemons will just sit in a corner crying while getting shot to pieces.

OK took me a bit to get my laughter under controll since in essence that is so true.

Yet it makes it all the more fun when my cardboard boxes of doom, aka the Dark Elder Raider troop transport, mop up an entire flank while they where distracted by the Talos that was never a threat to began with.

I started with Tau. Loved them, but was seduced by Chaos (probably that damned Slaanesh!). I more of a Chaos Undivided supporter, but if I had to choose one particular legion of Chaos it would be the Iron Warriors. Always loved them, but the idea of making them look like Iron Warriors was daunting.

Even though Tzeentch is my preferred Chaos God; "Blood for the Blood God!" "Skulls for the Skull Throne!" and all that good stuff.

Oh, can anyone numerically list the Horus Heresy series? I can't figure out which is the bloody second in the series.

The second one is "False Gods". Very, very good book, 'specially the end...

On topic, I started as Eldar (they look so damn cool) but I turned to Chaos fairly soon after. Just love the fact that their gods undeniably exist, and the way you get rewarded for having fun if you worship them.
Although I quite like Grey Knights aswell, just love that shiny armour

Grey Knights/Inquistition first, Imperial Guard second mostly for the tanks and Commisar Gaunt. But I just love the Inquistion, the most expensive and most elite space marines that there are, and force weaponry!

All units have at least 6 strength and storm bolters, plus if you remember to use it the shrouding will really fuck up the enemy's shooting turn. Roll 3 dice and times it by 3 to see how far they can shoot and if they're too far they can't shoot anything else, will probably triple the game length but messes with shooty armies such as Tau.

And I have a love affair with Inquistors, read Eisenhorn and Ravenor! I love going to great big daemons with a relatively unassuming man and halving their initiative and doubling my strength with a daemon hammer and grimore of true names.

PS. Read everything written by Dan Abnett ever!

Tau, they kick ass and look awesome

 

[Serenegoose]

Well, to me it comes down to 2 different things. The flavour of the faction, and how well I personally play with them. On that front, I love the Orks, Imperial Guard, and Tau for their flavour, but I play more in line with the Eldar/Dark Eldar or Tau - long ranged, fast combat. Sure the Eldar can mix it up in melee, and I love the specialism their units have, but I'm always more comfortable with my enemy at range than up close.

So I guess, given they're the only race I like both fluff wise and combat wise, I'd side with the Tau.

 

[Calatar]

I loves me some Tau, the only race who really cares about advancing technology, which does everything in the pursuit of a better galaxy. Also they have Mechs with railguns.
I like Tyranids, because of their fearsome and awesome appearance, and their rapid biological evolution moving towards wiping out all life.

So it would seem that I like races capable of rapid advancement to gain success.

Yet my third favorite is the Sisters of Battle, essentially filling the role of paladins, their fervor and faith inspiring them to levels of heroic prowess. These are perhaps the most dogmatic and unchanging of all, but they can call upon the Emperor's power. The Inquisition speaks of great power and suspicion that is warranted in such a hostile universe.

If only there were some kind of cross between the Imperial Guard and the Blood Ravens. If only...

No problem. I gotta admit I'm rather fond of "sharing" it as I'm proud of it. I also have a huge freakin aquila banner over my bed, plus a bunch of various 40k posters, but no photos of that, sadly.

Yeah... I kinda like 40K.

 

[rosac]

Space marines for me.

If only cos they can blow things up faster than Michael Bay on garrys mod.

Anyone but humans... we've gone a bit looney.

 

[Gruchul]

I'm a fan of the inquisition. Perhaps its because I've been playing Inquisitor recently...
