Lookin to make first mono colored EDH. Any personal fav's or particular strategies? I was thinkin {eight-and-a-half-tails} but open to about anything.

Vileo

I like {Kemba, Kha Regent}. She's really good, makes your own protection, and can ultimately just get in for a ton of general damage.

LadyGrixis

Any of the Gods, considering they have that cool "Devotion" thing going for them :)

Otherwise, here are some of my favs:

WHITE: {Sensei, Golden-Tail} for the Bushido, {Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite} BECAUSE SHE'S A BOSS!, and {Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker} BECAUSE SHE KILLS THINGS!

BLACK: {Anowon, the Ruin Sage} Tribal Vampire/Sacrifice, {Mirri the Cursed} +1/+1 Counters, {Infernal Kirin} Hand Control/Tribal Spirit

BLUE: {Braids, Conjurer Adept} Artifacts/Mana Ramp, {Kira, Great Glass-Spinner} Control Counter Control, {Talrand, Sky Summoner} TOKENS OUT THE BUTT!

RED: {Krenko, Mob Boss} TOKENS/Aggro/Tribal Goblin, {Heartless Hidetsugu} Kill All The Life

GREEN: {Yeva, Nature's Herald} & {Eladamri, Lord of Leaves} Unlockable/Hexproof/Flashing Tribal Elves!, {Sosuke, Son of Seshiro} Mmmm, Snake Tribal <3

Moneekahh

Some potentially awesome mono commanders: {Omnath, Locus of Mana}, {Isamaru, Hound of Konda}, {Norin the Wary}, and I'm currently using  {Thassa, God of the Sea}. :)

I'm selling my awesome mono blue {Lorthos, the Tidemaker} deck and my mono red chaos {Norin the Wary} deck

::)
I think {Krenko, Mob Boss} could be good to get ALL the tokens, or maybe {Nefarox, overlord of Grixis} could be a powerhouse.

That's allowed ;)

Pirate John

{sheodred, whispering one} makes a GREAT mono black reanimator type commander.

All of the new Theros gods allow for interesting commander play as well.

DYMongoose

I'll confirm {Krenko, Mob Boss} and {Kemba, Kha Regent} as effective generals. My friends *hate* my Kemba deck.

Stoneco1d869

Be careful when choosing a mono colored general not to choose one that will draw too much hate...ie {Krenko Mob Boss} or {Sheoldred}<-- though her high CMC may save you from some hate.

Just make sure you have an answer for the most dreaded card against mono colored decks...

{Iona, Shield of Emeria}

{Iona, Shield of Emeria}
{Torpor Orb}, right, since they can't name colour less?
