I've done my homework, so I'm a bit better prepared now!
mrgreen This soup army, are you going to just toss units together with the same keyword or are you going to build legal detachments to get the most out of all your units?
Well, i intend to follow the intended rules, so legal in that way ... But as far as 40k goes, even though i like a lot about it, i haven't played it much, nor am i very immersed in the lore, so my starting idea is to see what of the things that i like (efficiency and meta be damned, i'd just play for fun, at least for starters), and then see how many of those that can logically fit into the same army.
I can obviously not bring EVERYTHING i like, not only due to points, but also due to me both liking loyalists, chaos, and certain hive creatures.
cat_mrgreen I would not mind getting advice on what to mix and what not, as well as advice on what should be added, even though i don't mention it.
In Imperial loyalist soups, i'd like:
* Sisters of Battle. Basic, Repentia and Command.
Somehow, i don't like the Celestine model.
* Callidus Assassin
* Ordo Malleus Inquisitor(i once made two in Power armor, the have yet to see any action) + Retinue.
* Death Cult Assassin(s)
* Mechanicus, although i like them and they trigger my conversion-fancy, i still know very little about their combat prowess. I would probably not mind learning more, though.
* Grey Knights
* Space Marines and Librarians.
No Primaris, and i'd probably avoid Primarcs as well.
* Imperial Guard, but probably not too many, they feel hard to give variation, to me: I'd rather use Necromunda Gangers or conversions than basic guard models.
* Sanctioned Psykers (Heh, perhaps i should add a special rule that if the Sisters see any "allied" psyker within range, the might shoot at it?)
For non-loyalists, the list would have Inquisitor w. Deamonhost, Rogue Psykers, and Daemons, or Genestealer Cult additions.
EDIT:
Yes, it is a lot, so i know i have to divide the loyalist soup into at least 3 different selections.
...and the chaos and the genestealer cult into two others, of course.
