the game store by my house is trying to get new players comfortable with the game. there was a suggestion that a start collecting league would be kinda fun, small fast games where its not so overwhelming. Being a new player i thought it was a great idea and signed up, i have over 2500 points in dark angels and love it but i wanna try something new and this seemed like a great chance. so the question im proposing is what box should i buy? i was thinking nids just becuase of how different they are from space marines. Space wolves are the army i really wanted to try but again playing dark angels i feel like it would be really similar, the positive thing is i can align with them and use them in my 40k games. Let me know what you guys think i appreciate it!!!

Well Space Wolves from my experience like to assault and appear to play differently enough from the other marines. Orks are always a fun choice even if they are not all that competitive.

orks do look like a lot of fun just the whole organized chaos thing is awesome lol i might go with space wolves then if there is enough of a difference

If it's just limited to Nids and Wolves then I'd recommend Nids. Not the most powerful of armies but will definitely be a new experience (plus the dual-devourer flyrant is a fairly powerful unit).

Otherwise I recommend getting the AdMech Starter box. Not only is a good value but the AdMechs are an army that has some unique stuff and would make a good allied force to your Dark Angels.
