Getting slowly back to Infinity and decided to start an entirely new Faction. Bought some stuff that I liked the look of and they turned into this - does this make any sense? The aim is for a generic list at this point. The first games will be without Fireteams as we're kinda easing into the rules. What should I buy next? Also, I'm having trouble dividing these into battlegroups in a logical way - any suggestions?

Welcome to Ramah! @Grotnib has provided an excellent resource on Ramah with his blog. We talk about it on this thread: https://forum.corvusbelli.com/threads/the-good-guys-wear-orange-an-rtf-blog.38378/ I would recommend your next purchase be the Action Pack. While you cannot use the Fiday and Ragik, the other models will be useful. Ghulams are great troops and would allow you flexibility with hackers and the NCO grenade launcher. Tarik also is a great bully model. I like the Khawarij box, but they are an acquired taste right now. Your first list looks interesting and should be fine for some starter games. The only change would maybe proxy the zhayedan doctor as something else. As you don't have link teams right now, it is not contributing much. Maybe as a Hakim with Boarding Shotgun? It will give you a change to play with Parachutist. You can use the saved point for a nasmat for your engineer or ghulam doctor. Let us know how it goes!
Action pack is a good pick for a next buy, but i would suggest looking for older Haqq starter packs, these are still around. It brings you three ghulams, tuareg sniper (that you can use for its more useful loadouts like hacker/doc), zhayedan and khawarij (which is a great optiin to have in ghulam link). I would also suggest getting Ghulam pack with special weapons and more mukhtars. Nahab or hakims are also good purchases, since it gives you access to airborne deployment specialists. As for the list, if i were to play this one w/o fireteams, i would think about mission objectives. If its something requiring specialists, then i would put there Mukhtar, one aro piece (zhayedan with sniper or ML, or shibab if he is going to be an aro piece) and then some backup orders like two Naffas, or maybe engineer. If there is no objective and you just play for kills, then i would put one of the two obvious killer pieces there, so either Shibab or Zhayedan HMG, and again - some order monkeys and an aro piece.
