From what I can tell, most of Veeky Forums has a huge hard on the iron "fuck you dorn" warriors
Best traitor legion?

That's because the Iron Warriors are undoubtedly the best Chaos Space Marines ever. Yes, really! Thanks to the heritage of Perturabo and their myriad nefarious deeds, the Iron Warriors are the exemplars of the Chaos Space Marines. With a few fringe exceptions... all Chaos Space Marine warbands and Legions want to be like the Iron Warriors and recognize Honsou as their Spiritual Liege!

This is true. Iron Warriors are actually the counterparts of the Ultramarines and not the Imperial Fists.

Well I like iron warriors for many reasons. For 1, I feel very deeply with Perturabo. 2, they and alpha legion don't really care that much about chaos itself as they do rebelling against the imperium, for their own reasons. 3, Rad idea for a legion. They are most likely the closest to an IG space marines. They dig trenches, and solve things by throwing themselves alongside bullets at the problem. 4, rad colors/patterns. And 5, they get things done fairly well.

A lot of people sympathize with Perturabo. Make all the autism jokes you want, but it's easy to see.
Perturabo was (wanted to be) a logical and creative soul, but due to massive amounts of self hatred was defined more by his envy. He makes for a good "downtrodden, vengeful nerd" character.
Not to mention the IW themselves are pretty cool. They can display a range of emotions, have a cool color scheme, and have a lot of fancy gadgets and toys. Not to mention they really play up the "war is hell" themes.
