Well, most people play a puritan army because you can take grey knights. Radical armies are few and far between, but if used correctly are devastating. The hardest part about them is the nature of the daemonhosts (random). Check out the DH TACTICA HERE
I personally use a puritan army as an attachment to my sms or ig. They are so much fun to play as this way because they add fluff and kill gapping weakness that both armies possess.
well at the moment i only have about 500pts in models because i still havent finalised my army.
im broke so i cant buy alot of models. damn there expensive!
and i have all gk and a terminator and stren + i modified some ig to make them inquistionional stormtroopers.
so i have the men for a puritan but i need to test out aspects of all of the chapter.

Well, I would say proxy the radicals then. Try them out without having to purchase them. And if you already have Grey Knights, that kind of settles which army to play. You obviously were attracted to them in the first place so why not play them?
Well, your choice is Grey Knights or Daemonhosts, like everyone says.
But Grey Knights are an entire army unto themselves (granted a lopsided one).
Daemonhost are just daemonhosts. Ya, they're cool and all. But that's all their is, and you can have only three. The rest of your army is gonna have to be Inquisitors, storm troopers, and allies of one sort or another. All of which you can still use with GK (except reg space marines).
for IG i'd reconmend only a 10 man GK normal squad as termies are expensive (and as guard players know 47 points spent on a termi is 47 points not spend on 9 guardsmen )
WH parent list and GKs inducted is vicious - This is what I am planning for some mixed use fun. It's just plain evil. Some will think it's manipulative, but I play an Inquisitorial Army, Not DH anymore. Actually I think we should all consider ourselves Inquisitorial Armies if you field an Inquisitor.
Here's a sample
HQ - Battle Sister (equip her to join who you want)
HQ2 - GK GM, Termies
T1 - STs 2 melta Chim 2 HBs (could use sisters if you got them)
T2 - STs 2 Plasma (could use sisters if you got them)
T3 - 6 GKs (ride in Immolator)
T4 - GKs
If <2000 than take out an exorisit, two are a big point sink in large games.
See the thing is WH have faith, and you generally want some faith to do those kick ass things (I've heard about 3+ invulnerable for your characters and ap 1 bolters ).
i never thought of taking it as an inquisitorial army instead of inducting.
its sounds good because when we have the alien hunters codex out it will give us a wide range of offensive and defensive troops.
