Just worked this out after attending a tournament at the FLGS today, after talking with some guys there. In our format for tournaments, you are allowed a Primary Detachment, and Allied Detachment, and a Dataslate, or the Inquisition as another ally book.

So here goes:

Primary: Dark Angels

HQ
Azrael
Ezekiel
Troops
3 Ravenwing bikes with 2 plasma, Attack Bike with MM-165 pts
5 scouts with 4 snipers, camo cloaks-70 pts

Allied: IG
Primaris Psyker

PCs with 4 flamers-50 pts
50 man combined blob squad with 5 power axes, 4 plasma guns-360 pts
Psyker Battle Squad with 8 psykers and Overseer-100 pts
Demolisher with heavy bolter-165 pts

Inquisition
Coteaz
Inquisitor with psychotroke, rad grenades, mastery 1, force sword-85 pts
Vindicare
Henchmen-10 bolter acolytes, 2 Crusaders-80 pts

Total:1750 exactly

As you can see, the list centers around the big blob with all the characters. The amount of buffs the characters give the squad is ridiculous, and having them supported by the PBS and other psychic powers gives further debuffs to the enemy. Basically any unit will be smashed aside through sheer numbers, as well as psychic support. Bikes are there to zoom around claiming objectives/pushing troops off objectives, Vindicare snipes tanks and characters, Scouts, Henchmen, and PCS camp as well as they can, and the Russ blows things up as it sees fit. Doesn't really have any anit flyer capability but the local meta here is very light on flyers. Other than that, it has very few weaknesses, at least as far as I can see, and I am aware that this list won't make many friends, it's mostly just a theory myself and some of the guys had.

Of course, all CC is welcome!

The Vindicare belongs to the GK codex and not the INQ.

Ahh my mistake. Decided to replace him with a Vendetta for anti tank/flyer and to drop off the PCS to get late game objectives, and added melta bombs to one sergeant in the blob.

A death star that moves six inches a turn is not a good death star

I feel like my DKoK quad launchers and heavy mortars would have a field day with this force.

Do the quad launchers and mortars ignore invulnerable saves? Unless they do, I don't see them doing much damage at all(Azrael gives the entire unit a 4++). Plus due to the Primaris Psyker, you have to take a LD test to even shoot at them or forfeit their shooting, and Ezekiel and Coteaz both have Divination so the chances of having a 4++ re-rollable are pretty high. Unless you want to ignore the deathstar completely and focus on the non-invuln save units.And you can't really ignore that many bodies and characters marching up the field. I'd feel very confident taking this list against another IG list, even DKoK any day

This what is wrong with 40K now, heck w/ Taudar and all the stars, 3rd attachment is just bunk.

the rerollable 4++ will only be on the characters themselves, so others will have a 4++ and thats it, so yes the quad will likely hurt them a lot

Well, considering they are being backed by an inquis with divination and a psyocculum, I think 24 blasts and 2 large blasts dropping on their head each round would do quite a bit of damage. Plus, taking the ld test at ld 10 wouldn't really be a bid deterrent. And since they are all sitting on a skyshield landing pad, they too have a 4++.
