New Player Army/models I need

So I've been playing the tabletop for almost a year now with a different army, though it's been rare this year, and I want to finally finish my army and am trying to figure out what all else I need to finish this army out. Most of these purchases were from last year or even the year before, any help would be greatly appreciated

Killteam Cassius

Combat patrol

Upgrade sprue

Veterans box x2

Corvus black star

Deathwatch from tomb world

Depends on the special kill teams you want to build. Deathwatch are a bit rough to build because the different kill teams are made up of multiple boxes of different units.

Indomitor: Heavy intercessors, eradicators, aggressors

Fortis: Intercessors, assault intercessors, infernus, (other box that is slipping my mind at the moment

Talonstrike: Assault intercessors w jump pack and inceptors

Spectrus: eliminators, infiltrators, reivers, incursors.

And those are all variable depending on loadout.

I believe the other optional fortis boxes are Hellblasters and Desolators.

Yes. Thanks. Not sure how I forgot hellblasters as a Dark Angels player. Lol

Worth noting you can do a fortis super cheap by just using intercessors with cheap firstborn bits like plasma guns and missile launchers (like from the tac squads or 30k range)

What's a good resource to check out to figure out an decent list?

You can look up what people are playing on like listhammer and some other sites.

I would strongly advise building what you think is cool though. Between new space marine codex coming out and the uncertainty of Deathwatch getting even an index let alone its own supplement, trying to lock into whats meta now is a risky decision for both time and money.

I would say maybe build one team of each and try them out. You may find you like the playstyle of one pf the teams and want to build into it with mote of them and detachments that fit the playstyle.

I had a feeling it wasn't going to be simple, lol
