Imperial Guard requires the most amount of effort and money due to the massive amounts of miniatures you will have to buy and paint. Even if you choose an armored company, you're still looking at a huge money sink. I still love mine anyway. I fashioned my Valhallan Ice Warriors after WWII Russians.

Hence my choice of Chaos. GW already had tons of my money from 2 40K armies before I started WFB. Chaos added half of another 40K army, and you can get 3000 points of a WFB army with about, say, 20 models. Plus, they were cool, some of the best figurines at the time.

Imp Guard and Orks take way too long to paint. Your dedication is to be applauded.

That sounds awesome and must have taken a lot of dedication.

@ drone - Things have changed since realms of chaos. Now you need close to 100 models.

I was kidding somewhat, but Chaos was definitely the smallest army out there. 1 Bloodthirster, 10-15 fleshhounds, 12-16 warriors, and a block of 30 beastmen with the general used up pretty much all the points. Maybe throw in a chariot or a Nurgle mage, depending on the opposing enemy force.

Did they nerf the obscene attack values? 100 models still seems pretty large given the overall power.

Yeah everything is much weaker than it used to be. I never played in the Realms of Chaos days, but I have heard many stories.
