Deep Thought: The Best 40K Army for Beginners IS…

A Simple question often asked of us dedicated gamers – the tricky part is not what your answer is – but WHY?

When you think about this I want you to consider a couple of items:

The army has to balance both ease if learning for a new player and ease of collectability and fielding a cost effective army (in points and real world dollars).

So first pick an army:

Space Marines
Space Wolves
Dark Angels
Blood Angels
Grey Knights
Imperial Guard
Chaos Marines
Chaos Daemons
Eldar
Dark Eldar
Tau Empire
Necrons
Orks
Tyranids
Adepta Sororitas

Then tell us WHY in the comments and give us a sample shopping list you would suggest to someone who is just starting in on the game.
