Grey Knights. Draigo + Paladins = Profit.

There's no need for a poll IMO as that's the mathematical answer at the models normal prices.

"As I recall, your face was tortured. Imagine that - the Master of the Wolves, his ferocity twisted into grief. And yet you still carried out your duty. You always did what was asked of you. So loyal. So tenacious. Truly you were the attack dog of the Emperor. You took no pleasure in what you did. I knew that then, and I know it now. But all things change, my brother. I'm not the same as I was, and you're... well, let us not mention where you are now."

You can build a grey knights army for a relatively low cost.

It's going to suck, but you can take draigo and a few squads of paladins for 1500 points haha.

You could also make a necron army but they are on the horizon for an update so you should wait for that, nothing is like buying an army and having the usefulness of your units change.

SM, Buy the Black Reach box for about 80-90ish USD. You can get roughly 700 points of SM from it if you upgrade all the troops. Includes dice, rules, templates...measuring stick(lol).

I was able to sell the Orks from my box for 35 on Ebay.

Kharn + two Chaos Battle Forces where the contents are all turned into Khorne Berserkers. This can easily give you a good themed 1500 force for about 230 CAD (before taxes). May be a little more feasable than running Draigowing.
