My favorite unit in 6th ed is definitely Fateweaver.  Fateweaver can do so many different things it's just a lot of fun to play with. 
Name:  Matthew Forsyth
Club:  Errybody in the gettin tips
Where I play: basically I only show up for tourneys or when I'm on my way up to New Hampshire to visit my folks.  I live about 45 mins from both stores, to the south.

Ha, my go-to is Fateweaver as well.

Kharn the Betrayer. Every freakin' time he hits the table, it's Warhammer.

Nurglings.

Plague zombies. Their durability and low cost allow for serious list shenanigans.

I like:

Warp Talons because they look cool.
The Orks that wear rockets because they look cool.
Snikrot because his rules are cool.
Deamon Princes because they look cool.
The Death Jester because he looks cool.
Wytches cause they kill stuff good?  :)
Necron flyers because they look cool.
Trygons because ROAR!
Arjac Rockfist cause he's clearly a BAMF.
Blood Crushers because Blood Crushers.
The ForgeWorld Bloodthirster Greater Deamon of Khorne because IT'S CLOBBERING TIME!

Celestine. As close to auto-winning linebreaker and the HQ-killing objective as you can get. And bad-ass in a ton of other ways. And I like the model. And the fluff.

I'm liking a combo of a team of 3 eldar war walkers with 2 scatterlasers on them (for a total of 24 S: 6 36" shots) With Eldrad behind them casting both Fortune and Guide (rerolls to both to-hit and saves) and then fortune on himself. So you pretty much have 24 twin linked S:6 shots coming at you per turn. Amazing agenst infantry of guard. Another good one is Guardsman Marbo, I use him as a 65 point sucide bomber with a demo charge. This past sunday I wiped out a entire squad of chaos marines using his demo. Points well spent :)

Snikrot is the man.

Correct.

Snikrot was the man.  rule changes really killed him.  Still best model.

Lootas are the best unit in Shoothammer 40k.

The single unit that has me most excited about 40k right now, I would say a Khorne marked Chaos Lord on a Juggernaut wielding the Axe of Blind Rage.

He is so angry, he can't see straight but if he does see you, you are going to be food for his mechanical wolf/horse thing.
