Yeah I must admit that I tend to field the same army a fair bit when playing. Sometimes I punish minis for bad performances. 😛 I was once playing with my brother with my Primaris Marines against his Genestealer Cults and a Sergeant that I had just seemed incapable of being where he should have been and doing what he was supposed to… I named him P. Weasley for some reason and decided that the dead marine on the base of my Apothecary was him but no one knew how he died and it was an ‘accident’. 😛

Usually when army building I have a ‘core’ that I always take and then put extra units around. For Bolt Action, for example, I always start with a platoon of three sections. It deff runs nicely for letting the minis themselves make their own narrative.
