I played in a local 2K tournament yesterday with my Ultramarine Honorguard (Counts as GKs), and thought I would post batreps from the three battles.

My opponents were:
SWs
Newcrons
Vulkan Space Marines

The first round is posted here.
The second round is posted here.
The third round is posted here.

He has a dreadknight in his army that is ostensibly Calgar in his special battle armor suit.

He has Nemisis Doom Fists and Teleporter. I find the Fists provide plenty of hitting power and the Teleporter is nice to have in higher point games.

Nice Dread Calgar. Made me lol. Too bad you can't give it guns and doomfists together IIRC because then it really would be a Dread Calgar

Thanks! I really like how it turned out. It's something that people generally love or hate. I get a lot of grief though for using the GK codex because it is too "cheesy".

Neat models btw.

It's really quite a shame that someone has to use GK's just to make a decent ultramarine army......

I don't think you really have to. I think my normal 2K Smurf list is just as effective if not more effective against most armies. I basically run the GK version for a change of pace and for the modeling opportunities.

I will say that I am disappointed in how the real Smurf Honorguard fit in the current meta, though.

I think what sfshilo meant was that ultramarines know deep down that they can never be GKs and their spiritual liege Gulliman wishes he could be Kaldor Draigo
