I think the "subtlety/finesse" issue is phrased wrong - finesse is what
you make of
it. I would say IG is the triumph of quantity over quality, Marines are
Quality over
quantity, orks are close assault over ranged attacks, and (maybe) eldar
are range
over close assault . Not sure where Chaos & Nids fit into this, but
everyone seems to
feel that certain races are "easy to win with" and "no challenge", but
so far most
people differ on exactly what those races are.

What does everyone think - is any race broken? is any race a walkover?

Imperials, esp Guard are long range firepower over CC. Eldar are a sort of
Hybrid, I'd describe them as Short range firepower.
        Personally, I feel eldar are the weakest race inE40K. Short range
firepower and small detachments do not go well with a race that should try
not to take causulties. The high movement does not help, since you have to
get within 15cm to shoot anything. I havn't yet found a way to make a good
force without restorting to things like titans and engines of vaul. The
troops themselves just stink.
