Hm.. a interesting question, but one i've thought about a lot.
I guess I can break my answer down to two areas; why space marines, and why iron lords?
First off, I choose Space Marines because well, I like their look, the fact they are kinda like the all rounders of the 40k world. Pretty awesome looking models, awesome tanks, some really killer rules in the codex. Plus because they are very versatile with what you can do with their models and their painting I think.
Next, why Iron Lords?
I chose Iron Lords simply because they were in the Marine codex and I had only ever seen one other Iron Lord army; and that army was the one that inspired me to build mine. A paint scheme you don't see, something different to everyone elses Ultramarines and other major chapters.
My next army will be a Imperial Guard army using another of the now 'fringe' regiments, and I think it'll be nice to see something a little different.
