This is a known, consistent group where a pretty standard rule is
"don't do stuff to annoy the others." so that pretty much covers it.
Generally narrative campaign so the allies will be sensible and there
for a reason but if someone wants to use say nid rules for cultists or
something that'd probably be fine.
But the actually likely allies are inquisitors with SM or guard, CSMs
with guard for LatD and thats about it.

Main one is the dread. new dread is worthless and I think all the CSMs
players have dreads they would like to feel are worth fielding.
Other vehicles are pretty rare between all of us at the moment.

ah sorry. I meant the houserule set will progress from there depending
on how we feel after a few games.
The skirmish/warband rules have been in use for about 15 months but
this is 1st time with the slightly reshuffled and expanded group.

Depends on point in the campaign.
I'll guess.
50% RPGlike <200pt skirmish games. some up to ~700
so these will use more rules. spotting, injuries and downs,
specialist equipment, character growth etc
40% normal 40k 1500 - 2000 pt
the same rpg/killteam squad might be in here as elites etc but their
reddot sight plasmagun will just be a normal PG, BS6 sniper is just
mere BS4 marine etc
10% really big apoc-like that'll get left on the table for however
long it'll take.
cheers
