The title explains the topic , also this can be ANYTHING , does not have to be 40k , me Codex C.I.S or Codex Daleks.

The biggest indicator someone is a loser is them complaining about 3d printers or piracy. |

I was thinking of codex Daleks just yesterday 
Codex Termight (what?! already done? called it Imperium of Mankind?)
More seriously, a Codex Civilians including gangers, human tribes, spyrers etc... all these possible units you could find in Necromunda as a representation of the independant fighting forces of an imperial hive world.

That's probably the coolest idea in this thread.
Little green nasty creatures in enormous hordes represent Envy.
A large, hulking, slow-moving, blue behemoth that's nigh unkillable will be Sadness.
Fast-moving, hard-hitting red assault troops that come at you from nowhere will be Anger or Wrath.
A fragile, fleeting but very hard to hit IC can be Glee.
And only when used in a cohesive, self-complimenting force can they really be successful.

Codex Taliban? Basically they all have the same rules as Bomb Squigs? (Strap on bomb, press button, run at target, hope for best!)
Or maybe Codex Barghesi (some species in the BRB described only as 'Hyper Violent') could be interesting.
Or codex Chuck Norris? He is HQ, Troops, Elite, Fast Attack, and Heavy Support. And wins all the time. During deployment. Eat THAT!
One last suggestion: Codex Covenant!
HQ: Brute Bosses, Prophets.
Troops: Grunt squads with brute leaders, and Shield Jackals.
Elites: Brute Squads (with prowlers as dedicated transports!), Jackal Snipers, Ghost Squads.
Fast Attack: Choppers, Prowlers, Jetback Brutes.
Heavy Support: Wraiths, Hunter Squads!
