Feel free to shout out your favorite army and play style, along with some Do's and Dont's you've learned along the way. Any and all input about all civs are welcome. This is a learning thread for me, the super-newb.
Here's what I think I have nailed down:
Space Marines: shooty, some tanks, less melee
Imperial Guard: shooty, more tanks, poor melee
Orks: hoardy, some shooty, better melee
Tyranids: numbers, numbers, numbers
Eldar/Dark Eldar: ?
Tau: shooty, poor melee
Chaos: shooty, good melee, some tanks
Necrons: ?
Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks!

If so Space Marines can do everything well, as can Chaos. If you build your army right Eldar can too, but that's VERY dependent on how you build your army. You nailed Tau, Tyranids and Guard in my opinion. Necrons... I don't know anymore. They used to be primarily midrange.

Necrons could be likened to a glass of honey. Spill the glass and the honey expands, slowly and surely. With them you just want to walk across the board hosing things. Now they have transports to make that faster, you'll find a major part of your army revolves around using the Monoliths gateway.

With tyranids you want to make sure to keep synapse control at all times. So don't skimp of synapse creatures, for with them a tyranid army can never be broken by any moral checking. Becareful when selecting the carnifex squad since they pretty much hiked their points cost and nerfed ther ablilites quiet a bit.
Now that trevigon models are out, I'm gonna try for a factory army!
