So if it isn't apparent by my Signature, I collect a few armies. However I have come to decide (at least for now) I would like to try a Vanilla Combined army (I want the toys)

I have a sizable portion of morats already so I need some suggestions on some models to grab from the other sub factions. For the morats I have
3 x Vanguard
1 x Oznat,
2 x Sogarat
1 x Raktorak
1 x TREITAK ANYAT,
2 x Pretas
2 x Gakis
2 x Zerats
1 x Rasyat
4 x Yaogat


So yes I have alot o Morats so any suggestions would be appreciated other then I am going to buy up models I like

I can recommend one or more of the following:

Skiavoros (awesome LT)
Ikadron(2) (really good ordermonkeys)
Shrouded(2) (use as forward observer or minelayer)
Vector Operator (very killy with hmg)
Q-Drone (good defense)
Malignos (monofilament mines ftw)

Kill kombo:
Ko Dali
Speculo killer (deliver smoke for Ko Dali)

I usually also field one or more Daturatzis, and try to make room for Anyat.

Can't be a vanilla CA thread without a recommendation for the Anathematic. Unless you don't like a TAG sized HI that appears from nowhere, bisects the closest threat, hacks the local HMG carrier and makes him slaughter his buddies,

Ohhh don't worry about that He is on my "list"

Indeed. And the fact the model looks amazing is pretty awesome too.

I'll just throw out a potential recommendation for a skiavoros lieutenant. It's an EI construct so you will never ever suffer LoL unless you're tabled, has WP 16 which is pretty good as these things go, and Strategos 2 (so he can use his lieutenant order on anyone and you can place 2 models in reserve when you deploy). All in all seems like a good choice in my opinion. Also he can take a Sepsitor and still be your LT. Combine this with the Coma ability and you have some fun times in my opinion.

Well add the Daturazi Witch-Soldiers box at the Skiavoros to my list now too

I can say list building for the CA seems a pain, guess it is the same for all the high cost armies. I mean if Spec Ops are allowed I can manage to cram all the specialists I need and manage to squeeze 4 Pretas into a second group. I need to read up more on the Shav as I am still at a lose on which of those to try and cram in a list lol

I feel your pain. We have so many interesting and nasty things to use...and they're all so expensive! Been messing around in the list builder and the points just sneak up on you. Even with two 4 point order generators there's just never enough bodies on the field.
