I enjoy games agains Empire, Dwarfs and Orc and Goblins the most. There is always several blocks of infantry on both sides which makes for some interesting tactical challeneges and it's easy to create a background story for the game.

I think, that my favourite army to play, and play against are actually Skaven (for fantasy that is).

The reason?: PLaying as them, you learn to simply get over all those other items that are one off, and might not work (like wards for the first wound suffered etc). The reason is that almost all their stuff is dodgy, and this help you when you play something like Lizzies to take that one item that might not work, as you have a whole army that runs on that philosophy. (or atleast it helps me).

Another, is the pure random factor. I used to find it annoying, but weather its the new "thing" or i just love it, the Skaven are random. Its fun becasue things can go right to plan, or epically wrong. This makes them fun to play IMO becasue of the risk, which also brings character to the army. This is also the reason i'd like to vs them. That, and they seem balanced (like, assasins that actaully ARE heros).


That turned out to be rather long... huh.

I don't mind when I accidentally kill my own.  They were probably asking for it anyway.

I to enjoy a good game vs Chaos Dwarfs. They have an odd combination of Skaven/Dwarf tactics. "Yeah, I know you just waded through my ocean of Rabble, but now you have to deal with my Warriors."
Skavenade-it'll tickle yer innards!
