fantasy battle chaos is all "hey, up here, in the north, you nothern tribes, follow us. We have auras & stuff and we have tribes of beastmen that we created to help you come on it will be cool oh ok you're heading back south out of our influence well shit"
whereas 40k chaos is entirely pervasive throughout the entirety of the galaxy, needing only the tiniest foothold in order to spew forth its influence or creations. And there is official black library fluff where extended psyker concentration has nullified the Necron pariah gene. Which means that Chaos can not only surpass the Pariah, but can effect the Tau, the Tyrannid and the Ork.
basically what i'm getting out of this is that papa nurgle loves us.

I've always liked the IG best in 40K. There's just something about a group of soldiers with basic las-rifles and minimal armor taking on impossible foes (and dying horribly) that appeals to me.
and Macera makes a small offering to the lord of change
Everything is going according to the plan...
oh you fool

I'm playing Witch Hunters allied with Space Marines right now
Gonna get some grey knight terminators later, and do WH/DH and just take 4 squads of inq. stormtroopers as my troops choices to unlock terminators and a dreadnaught
talk of nob bikers reminds me of a sound example of why the ork codex is great
while other armies are all "this character may not take X with Y", where X is terminator armour and Y is like a jump pack or something, but that's as far as it goes
ork codex is all "a warboss may not take both a bike and mega armour because he'd probably fall off a lot"

IG VS orks
my list is this:
company command with bodyguard snipers and plas pistol power weapons
2X vet squads with carapace and heavy bolters
1 armorered senty with multilaser
Marbo
All sitting at exactly 500 points.
My oppenent's ork list is this:
11 shooty boys with 1 nob with bosspole and powaklaw
10 choppy boyz with 1 nob with powaklaw and a big mek with powaklaw bosspole cybork body and eavy armor mounted in a trukk with rokkit launcher
and three warbikers.
This, right here, is why I'm gonna be playing orks.

Argh. It's hard not to spring on that Assault on Black Reach or whatever it's called. Not this weekend. Not this weekend.

my opponent has stated he doesn't plan to use them because "the are cheesy"
They are cheesey. Unless you're IG with plenty of tanks, that is. Then they crumble like crumbly... crumbs.
