I made a thread about make your Unbound lists that be fluffy or break the game. Since there was not a lot of Fluffy lists in there, please make your Unbound list that is fluffy and you always wanted to field but couldn't because of the rules.
Let's see your Fluffy Unbound lists.

Now you can do that without Counts As now. Unless you liked the DA rules that went with it.

I'm expecting an Imperial Knights supplement dedicated to GW's loyalist apologetics. Codex: White Knights "In the grim dark future, everything is fine."
"The argument is that we have to do this or we will, bit by bit,
lose everything that we hold dear, everything that keeps the business going. Our crops will wither, our children will die piteous
deaths and the sun will be swept from the sky."

I don't know what that is. What is it? What makes that unit that you couldn't field it? A reason why I made this thread. To see what I am missing and don't know about.

Canis is a Space Wolves HQ choice with an affinity for Wolves (that's why he's called Wolfborn), with Canis the normal max for Fenrisian Wolves (a troop choice with Canis) is 90. I just want to see a really fluffy  Space Wolves army

Im looking forward to being able to recreate armies like from codex witch hunters and daemon hunters with inquisitorial stormtroopers as the backbone of the army
Also being able to merge eldar and dark eldar seamlessly is going to be awesome for playing corsair and exodite lists

Ordo assassnarium army
Nothing except scary number of vindicare assassins, backed by some odd stealth-type units as "disciples"
About as inefficient as it gets, but would be amusing, and wont cost that much to build.
Also, the ability to get pretty much any unit I was as a rule base for making tau auxiliary conversions is BOUND to bring nearly as many conversion as ork armies looting anything and everything.
And a farsight army that beyond the mandatory 3-suit team, every single unit in the army is a lone crisis suit.

Imperial Knights would probably despise playing against that Vindicare list. You could take like 5-10 of them and kill 1-2 Knights per turn with some halfway decent rolling while hiding in cover the whole time hahaha.

I have an idea for an army that I think the Unbound rules may make possible, depending on how allying works. The idea is that there was a small chapter of space marines who battled an incredibly powerful Chaos sorcerer and destroyed him, but were themselves nearly destroyed in the process. The survivors of the chapter found themselves in possession of a powerful spellbook, the Book of Black Words. Needing to keep it safe, they allowed the Imperium to believe the entire chapter was lost and retreated to a secret Shrine World where they could build a monastery, changed their name to the Tome Guardians and hid the book away. Centuries later they were visited by an Inquisitor who had discovered their secret. Soon after he arrived, a vastly superior force of Chaos Marines showed up and began sacking the planet. The Inquisitor convinced the Tome Guardian's chapter master to turn to the Book of Black Words to find some weapon to use against the Chaos, to "fight fire with fire." The chapter master did so, and in the process caused all under his guardianship to fall to Chaos -- which is when the Inquisitor revealed he was actually a Chaos Sorcerer, the apprentice of the wizard they had killed centuries ago, and that the invading force of Chaos Marines was all illusions and tricks, plus the Sorcerer's pet Heldrake (because every evil wizard should have a pet dragon).
My plan originally was to build the army as CSM using Space Marine models, as the chapter as only just fallen. But the Unbound rules might allow me to run the fallen Tome Guardians as a Codex Space Marine army with a Chaos Sorcerer and Heldrake as allies, without having to take any Chaos troops. That would be very cool.

Challenge accepted. Heldrakes auto-lose after Turn One because no models on board.
But seriously, I think Unbound has potential for themed, fluffy lists.
Night Lords that are all Raptor/Warp Talon? Check!
All jump pack Raven Guard? Check!
Iron Warriors with the 3.5 artillery back in? Check!
A rough rider themed IG army (think pure cav-just tanks and mounted riders, nothing moving less than 12" a turn if it wants to)? Check
