Im starting to think about playing this game. Does anyone know what race to play because Im styckon either Necron, Chaos(Thousand Suns), Space Marine (Blood Ravens), or the Sisters Of Battle. Please give lowly noob some advice

The Necrons just got updated rather big time, they are as tough to kill as a Space Marine(Chaos Space Marine). Vanilla Marines(or your Blood Ravens[ wink are still an okay book and can do everything pretty well. Thousand Sons Are expensive model and point wise. The models are cool and the marines themselves can move and shoot 2 shots at 12 inches or 1 at 24 but they have great armor piercing and can kill a normal marine/necron without them getting an armor save and also you have to take a sorcerer in each thousand son squad but they come in the thousand son box...also you might want Ahriman of the thousand sons since he can cast three physic powers in the shooting phase and his stats are great too. Sisters of Battles rules are in two different White Dwarf magazines and they are out of print so you have to find them on ebay or maybe Amazon. They have a lot of special units but their main troops are as strong as a normal human in the game they just have power armor like Space Marines.

Thanks for the info. Now I have the info for choosing the right race

Rumor is that Chaos might get a new book this year and a new Edition of Warhammer 40,000 is also coming out. If the Rumor of Chaos is true then the book might be $33 or so.....My Vampire Counts for Fantasy was $41 but it is hard covered.
