if the accessories mode works and power comes on, and if the ignition works, and the starter works, and it wont crank at that point... uhm i think that puts you in the area for checking the igniter coils and the cables between them and the spark plugs, plus the spark plugs.
if the battery gauge reads the right voltage and you can turn headlights on and whatnot uhh it should still crank w/o the alternator working properly but it's going to kill the battery.
if it hasnt been cranked up in a really long time sometimes they flood or require some m4g1c tr1x to start up lol.
pretty simple process of elimination to figure out where to look though, and to be able to ask a more specific question or point in a more specific direction
