Cheers.  While those factions and playstyles may parallel well, do you know if the bulk of the 40k models for those factions (IE not the big stuff) line up well enough with those suggestions?

While googling earlier I saw Genestealer cults suggested for a Plague equivalent.  Sounds like it makes sense, although not sure how well the 1 and 2 plague guys line up with bigger nids?  I imagine if I wrapped my head around the rules and the army lists I could probably find ways to use multiple 40k armies within each Warpath list, if I squeezed and tried.

Does Warpath/Firefight support alliances?  That might help with fudging 40k models in to workable armies.  Like the 1000 sons start collecting box has Chaos Marines (Forge Fathers or Enforcers) with Tzaangors (Plague?)
