Pretty sure that you can't take all that. If it's a DH army, it can only take one allied force, not two.

But regardless...

DH with WH: Witchhunters were called in to combat a cult or somesuch that had sprung up somewhere. The WH were unable to destroy the cult before they could summon help from the Warp, and so the Daemonhunters were called in to combat the new foe. A detachment of the already-present WH were to accompany the DH force, as the WH already knew both the area and all about the cult that was being attacked.

Inducting & Allying are the same thing. Only one, so no DH/WH/IG, sorry.

I was thinking of doing something similar. I don't think the Ordos should be as mutually exclusive as they are made out to be. I remember in the Inquisitor RPG book they were talking about one of the Puritan Inquisitor sects, and it said that some Inquisitors don't belong to any Ordo. If this is true, membership must not be mandatory. So maybe the Ordos aren't like guilds, they're more like loose confederations of Inquisitors working towards a single purpose (Witch Hunting, Daemon Hunting, Xeno Hunting, whatever). It seems to me that the Ordo Mallus and the Ordo Hereticus are two sides of the same coin. After all, what is the end goal of killing Heretics? Preventing the incursion of Daemons. Mallus are reactive, Hereticus are proactive. I think they would work together a lot. I understand GW’s rationale for doing it, of course (I bought a boxed set of Inquisitor Torquemada, I’m going to buy a boxed set of the Witch hunter, and the Xeno hunter when they come out). But I don’t think the fluff (or logic) supports it. I wish that GW would have released a single Inquisitor book, where you could pick and choose psychic powers, but that's not what happened. Pity though...
