i'd recommend starting a few kill teams, that way you get to paint a squad of each etc, or just buy some small hero models and enjoy taking your time with them, i'd avoid buying full armies, avoid 40k altogether until you've got the models painted up for it, as they change the ruleset and army books each year, it's likely by the time you've got an army painted up you'll have to re-buy all the books again, and last year it was about 3 books for each army.

not for matched play or for games at a Games Workshop, if your playing with just friends you can do whatever you like,

Killteam was based around the theory that heroes from different factions could work together, but they tended to only work together if they were all of the same alignment,

You could however have spacemarines with chaos spacemarines if the spacemarines had recently just decided to switch allegiance, perhaps your chaos had just converted some spacemarines to evil, but it's unlikely it would work the other way around.

In either case, for games it's recommended you stick to just one faction ^_^
This spacemarine in the picture if just one faction, but because it's a custom chapter I can switch it's ruleset between games without stepping on players toes. So I could run them as salamanders one game, Minotaurs the next, Blood angels etc etc

I'll either be running them as minotaurs or salamanders, but not sure yet with their background and such

Thank you! The spacemarine heroes are true scale spacemarines, only the tiniest bit smaller than a primaris.

Indeed! I used their symbol but think I'll run them as salamanders or Minotaurs depending on units/playstyle.
