what is your favourite army?
« on: July 11, 2009, 10:25:14 PM »
I mean, the one what you like the most, because his background, figures sculpted and you feel better and enjoy playing with.

Mine is undivided chaos and my regular oponent is empire.

1. Chaos Dwarfs
2. Dwarfs
3. Kislev

I played 1 and 2 in WFB (long time ago) and 2 and 3 in Warmaster (currently). When become "community approved" I will play CHD as well in Warmaster (at least it's the plan). It is really hard to chose which is really "the one" army...

Favourite: Chaos, mostly because I play them.
And they are hard nutters to crack.
I have only tried another army once (DE or Undead) and that was in a foursome game of 1000p each. Fun, but very unregular.

Regular opponents: DarkElves and Undead.
In the early days (2001-2005) it was mostly Empire but also Dwarfs and HighElves.

I like em all hence owning them ;)
But the favourite has to be my all time favourite fantasy race - Skaven.
Warhammer, warmaster, bloodbowl, MOW it has to be skaven, I just love the fluff and how you can achieve very different army builds from the same list.
But struggle not to pick another army as I really do like them all :)

Hello, i'm a French Newbie on this site, and with warmaster two.

But I'm an old player of GW products, and I'm loving the vampires counts. Blood Bowl (a hard roster...), Warhammer Battle (easier...), epic (no vampires? damn! blood angels, then!), W40K (same punition) and now, vampires counts in warmaster....

I'm a little bit silly with it: i've bought specially a blister of storm of chaos to have Mannfred, because in the blister of characters, there wasn't any beautifull one for me.

But I have never plaid with them till today... :'( So I don't know if it' easy or not...

Vampires are a very good army.
I have yet to lose with mine out of 5 games.
Raise dead is a very useful spell ;)

I love the Araby army, and am eager to get mine painted!

I also like the look of the Orcs and Goblins and Dwarves.

Well I like Bretonnia because I play them, especially since the pegasus riders came into being! You just gotta love knights! :D

Orcs&Goblins, Araby, Kislev and High Elfs also look very nice.

Good ol' empire is my favorite. The army combines a potentially very high breakpoint with some shooting.
Vampire counts would come in second for me: so many units!

Welll.... I love them all (the ones I have)

But if I would have to chose a favorite my selection would be following one.

Daemons
I like their playstyle and the  "No Mercy" playstyle of this army.

Araby
The most beautifulest models of the WM range

But I also like to play Undead, Lizzardmen, Chaos, Empire, O&G ...etc.

Cheers
Claus

My friends approved me to use one of the Cult of Slaanesh lists, so that is my favorite. Combining Slaanesh w/ the better Dark Elf models is simply two great tastes which taste great together.

Bretonnians are my favourite army. Not because the models are so great - but because of the different tactical approach they have.

But I also like Vampires and Chaos.

The most beautiful army in my opinion is Araby. They are very detailed and funny.

The only army I own in playable size are Skaven ... and I like the models of them most :) So much love given to the greens of this army makes them look so awesome funny (esp. the Jezzails and Rat Swarms). The rules are ... quite discussable ;)

I dont have much comparison to other armies, just played High Elves 2 times and Dwarfes 1 time.

Greetings

With 4,000 points of them painted I guess I have to say my favourite army is the High Elf one, though I'm becoming very fond of my Slaaneshi Chaos army (lots of scope for conversions and hard as nails) and my Lizardmen (I just love the figures)

I have first 6 armies (HE, O&G, Empire, Khemri, Dwarves, Chaos) and have played them all.  I like Undead or HE the best, with a slight tilt toward Khemri.

I want to try a Deamons army next.  I am thinking about making a Cthulu based deamons army because I just don't like Nurgle.  Besides, the conversions would be fun!
