Kharn the Betrayer! He's yet to survive any of the games I've used him in, but he's a lot of fun to get into assault with.

Also.... it's still early... but MAN, sometimes that Heldrake with a Baleflamer is a BEATING.  And it's fun... it hangs back off the board, letting you sweat a bit... then it arrives like the cavalry and makes a whole unit of marines disappear.

And the new Obliterators.  Every time I think about playing without them I feel sad.  It's always fun times when it gets to the Obliterator part of the shooting phase... cycling through the 8 different tools on the swiss army knife and trying to pick the perfect one for the situation at hand.

How are we quantifying Best?  Assaulty? shooting? all around? defensive? or hey holy crap that was awesome?

Going in blind; I'm venturing either Thunderwolf Calvary or the Chaos Heldrake.

May not be the best point for point, but My Favourite still has to be High Marshal Helbrect with a fully kitted out command squad along with his crusader that gets pretty expensive but mean as all hell.

My favorite unit of all time has to be a min. unit of Wyches.  So cheap and versatile, even in the new edition they always will trade for their points or more, and that's how we play attrition boys and girls!

Hands down Stealth Suits.

They have USR: Stealth, Shrouding, acute sense, jet packs, infiltrate. Nothing like coming in on someone's flank with unloading a ton of str5 shots and then thrusting into cover to get +3 to your cover save.
