Congratulations, your dismissive and conclusory commentary has provided nothing to this discussion or the wider community on whose behalf you arrogantly presume to speak nor does it engage in any meaningful way the remark it lamely targets. But you did manage to gain experience points toward your next level of internet tough guy.

how about the defenders of the old ones, the lizard men. Make them an army of psyker type people. Make them all psykers, but the average one with weak powers like +1 leadership. I guess a numerous psyker army. Or make them awsome at range with some goodness in close combat and lots of psykers. A numerous psyker army that stinks in both range and close combat, but they use their psker powers to become good in certain skills. Numerous so they don't all die by their psyker powers.

Also since the old ones created the warp and psykers to defeat the necrons, it makes perfect sense. Why the show up now in the time? Because when the necron awoke, so did they.

I agreed with a friend of mine on the idea of a "Codex: Enemies of the Imperium" book. It would have LatD, Genestealer Cult, and something else I'm sure. I'll have to hit him up for more details.

Personally, I think they should bring Codex: Imperialis back. I want Arbites and Mechanicus in one army list, and I want to field it.

If they actually release a Squat army, I will buy it on day one, purely based on the principle of the thing.
EDIT: Hell, you could even include them in Codex: Imperialis depending on what you wanted to do with them.

Grey Knights have no downsides, it is all user-error.

Not greyknights with no down sides, they will be weak. None of the raw power of the grey knights, and grey knights can bring in stuff from the imperium, like a land raider, these guys cant.
