Poll: Other than Lizardmen, what is your favorite Warhammer army?

Curious to see how others on the forum feel about the various non-lizard armies. Pick your favorite based on whatever combination of criteria is most important to you. Feel free to share the reasons for your selection. What is it about the army that appeals to you?

For the exclusively AoS players, feel free to pick the army that best represents your favorite non-Seraphon AoS faction.


Vote and discuss!

 

Since I can pick only 1 army in the poll let me expand the selection to: High Elves, Tomb Kings, Wood Elves. Unfortunately only the last one is actively sold
Reasons are purely aesthetic. I played tabletop like once and more than 10 years ago

 

Bretonnia ftw

 

Tomb Kings. Orcs and Goblins close second.

 

Even though I’ve been doing stuff with Greenskins, High Elves and Skaven and I also have a great fondness for Tomb Kings, Bretonnia and Wood Elves, it’s got to be my very first army, the Dwarfs (and their AoS descendants the Fyreslayers and Kharadron)!!!!!!

I actually have a copy of the Dwarf army book with this artwork, despite it being older than I am:


EDIT: Hooray all the best armies have at least 1 vote (apart from Greenskins)

 

Which is your favorite (outside the Lizardmen) you say? This will be a tough one...

+1

 

Where are stormcast?
Just kidding those abominations can burn

I chose high elves because dragons and they have very effective core infantry

 

Have a thumbs up from Arnie

 

Though I've never played WHFB I chose BRETTONIA since I love them in TWW

 

By the lady, Bretonnia's actually the most voted!

 

Just think, if more people were like you and had become inspired by Bretonnia’s awesomeness in Warhammer Total War when Warhammer Fantasy was around, GW might have just been pressured into writing that Bretonnian 8th Edition book that they were trying to avoid doing for the 5 years 8th Edition had been kicking around...

 

Or even an aos battletome who knows

 

That’s a good bit less likely considering GW executed them, but there could be a spiritual successor of Bretonnia like Ossiarch Bonereapers succeeding Tomb Kings in terms of army roster. Perhaps they could be called ‘Knights of the Lady’ or something?

(Probably wishful thinking on my part )

 

Out of the options I’d probably have to pick Ogre Kingdoms, only because they are the closest to Beastclaw Raiders (WHFB was before my time). I love the wintery aesthetics, and the models are undeniably awesome.

 

If we got a high fantasy version of the sci fi version of tomb kings, we might just get something. I don't see any harm in wishfully thinking!

 

And which of those did you vote for in the poll?

For the briefest moment I had lost faith in one of my favourite new members of the forum, but then I read....

I should have not doubted your virtue and valor. I salute you good Sir!!

I'm surprised your vote didn't go to WoC, Vampire Counts or The Empire! Maybe I'll have to make a similar poll asking which army people most dislike (I might even include SCE in that one )

That's Mrs. NIGHTBRINGER's favourite army too! Great minds think alike.

That is where the Beastclaw Raiders came from! They are a cool army.

The Tomb Kings are perfect as is!


Speaking of Tomb Kings, where is @Killer Angel hiding. Have your voice be heard good sir!

 

Dwarfs! bring the thunder! Hold the line! Let the organs sing and our foes die! the wrongs must be righted.
