Why Play Imperial Guard!
Because you're a proud fa/tg/uy who can remember the good old days when the models were pewter, the vehicle armour was Papier-mâché, and the universe was populated by manly fraggers instead of whiny Carapace Armoured Mary Sues. And with the xenos-fest that is the galaxy, an entire army composed of badass Flak-Armoured Humans with nothing but a Lasgun and their Commissar is like a breath of fresh air. What's that? Aspect Orks? Zog your Squig droppings. Go play Aeldari. These are blasts from the past, when everything was scratch-built, the force org chart was 50% HQ, and the Warboss had a Gork(or possibly Mork)damn Bionik Bonce. You're going to win for the same reason you always have. You're the hardest, Squigiest, git around and you've been pushing these kids' Squig droppings in since they had Yu-Gi-Oh lunch boxes. Welcome to the new hard mode.
Because they get all the goodies. No, seriously, they're present in almost every campaign book, and thus've loads of different play styles. You want an army of rugged survivalists that make Space Marines look like sissies, you can do that. You want an army of nothing but tanks, you can do that. They also've a multitude of different product lines for your base infantry models, from Vostroyan Firstborn and Catachan Jungle Fighters to Cadian Shock Troops and Armageddon Steel Legion, so there's plenty of ways to make your force your own.
