I am more or less your average power gamer so take my advice with a grain of salt.
Firstly wait till the new rule book comes out since it will more then likely single handedly decide which armies will be competitive, fun, or just plain out of date.
Failing this you are best off taking up either a new army or one slated to be rewritten soon after the new edition. Also try to avoid VC or Daemons till the smoke settles since it is rumored these are the armies that are supposed to be brought back in line with the new rules (And as we all know bringing something back into line can sometimes go over board)
And if you don't want to do any of the following just pick up one of the medium tier armies like empire, or dwarfs since it is doubtful such standard armies will get a major boast or handicap in the newest rule set.
