WarGin,
6ED is still current. I haven't played any previous editions. I went with Ultramarines, myself. I will get some pics up soon. I haven't started any painting of my own and I bought some cheap painted stuff........ EBay is a hell of a drug.
I have some pics of yesterday's 6 player game, 1500 each player. It was kinda crazy. called it 2 rounds and 4 hours in. Too much chatter, some had to leave.
Currently I run:
Chief Librarian Tigurius
Command Squad
Lv2 Librarian
2 ThunderFire Cannons (I modeled my own to scale)
2 Devastator Centurion Squads (Proxy, just using nice bases for now. very $$$)
2 Tactical Squads
2 Scout Sniper Squads
Razorback Tank (sometimes I borrow a friends Land Raider)
I have a few bikes but I am waiting to assemble them. I am going to make a Command Squad on bikes. Chaplain, Apothecary, Company Standard, running Hammers and Storm Shields.
I also have a couple generic captains, i use em as techmarines for the TFCannons
and 4 Veterans
I haven't put heads on some models cause I want to get an airbrush before doing anymore assembling.
