Most powerful codex in 3rd edition 40k?

Personally, one of the joys of 3rd edition is that no list can really handle all lists that well. A list tooled for defeating Tyranid monstrous creatures with T6 and a 2+ armor save are ill suited for taking on hordes upon hordes of gaunts. That's just one army book! However, I will have to say the most powerful codex (in my not so humble opinion) is the second Chaos Space Marines codex. There is a lot of good stuff in there, and it's a fun book. On the power level, though, it seems a bit higher than most. What would be your pick?

I don't like the Tyranid codex for the customizability precedent it established which led DIRECTLY to the Chaos 3.5 codex. Most of the time, there is a trendsetter that does something odd, but not quite gamebreaking that clears the way for a Chaos book to BE game breaking. Father, soldier, musician, Transformers fan, masochistic junior moderator type thing.
