Hey guys. I haven't played in quite some time. Let's say 2-3 editions ago. I have 4 armies but I don't play enough to validate having all that plastic sitting around. I have a 5 imperial knight army as well as one of the forgeworld castigator, a large raven wing about 30 bikers 9 speeders various builds on both, vanilla marine drop pod army and a huge ork army that can make any build unless its requiring the newer models. I'm going to keep my orks as they are my favorite but was hoping to keep 1 other and ditch the rest. Which armies are competitive out of what I have? I haven't played in a long time and would like your input dakka. Thanks!

Knight codex is coming out soon.

For competitive the ravening army maybe, the others are not currently competitive. Doesn't mean they aren't fun though, I would wait for the IK codex to come out in a month.

Orks spamming Boyz is pretty competitive. The other stuff is kinda trash ATM. Knights are about 100 points over costed each ATM, Raven wing suffer from the change to the T/S chart, and drop pods are kinda useless now.

Ultramarine 6000 : Imperial Knights 1700 : Grey Knights 1000 : Ad mech 500 :Nids 4000 : Necrons 500 : Death watch 500

Assuming you have a lot of boyz, probably the orks.

Drop Dangels and marines, sit on orks and IK for now.

Ork mod armies are doing well now, and a new Ork codex is due in a couple of months.

Spamming boyz isn't as competitive as people think and is awful to play. No news of codex also means you're stuck with no interesting stratagems for a while too. But you're set on them so that's that.

I'd keep the knights, personally. You have a horde army and the opposite. Ideal I reckon.

Ork horde is competitive in tourneys but not that good in regular games without a time limit.
