Playing this against a friend, Its funny how no one on here ever posted any large lists. 4 other friends are all bringing 4k lists, going to have 24k points going at the same time in 3 different games.

Well, there's not much to comment on in a large list like this because it's probably not for a competitive environment. Since it's not for a competitive environment, people's opinions on what to take to a friendly game don't hold much weight to your own opinion. Large games are very chaotic and are often not finished due to them taking a long time to complete.

There's nothing wrong with what you've taken. It seems pretty TAC all your units looks pretty standard. There's too many factors in a large point game to really give you solid advice or suggestions.

Why does something have to be tournament ready to be considered competitive. We are not playing just a simple kill point wannabe Apocalypse game.

I don't get it, this overwhelming need to have something be ultra competitive. What is wrong with simply just talking about lists? I have 4000 points to work with, with pretty much everything Grey Knights and Imperial Fists can offer.

How would you build out a large list like that?

I have Draigo and the GK librarian joining the Grav Centurions, the Fist Librarian sticking close to the Las Centurions and Lysander joining the Terminators in the Spartan.

Draigo can port the Centurions around, and the Drop Pods can help out the shunting Dreadknights. The only static unit is the Las Centurions, and only question mark is how soon my Ravens hit the table.

My opponent is bringing unbound Blood Angels, because the new Angel dex kind of hosed the lists he used to run.

Um, ok. Yeah you have synergy. It looks like a nice list.

I'm not sure what else you want me or anyone else to say. Your first comment made me think you were wondering why no one comments on large lists so I tried to explain why that might be. Most commenters try to give suggestions to make a list more competitive, but at 4000 points it is really hard to make any list competitive without just spamming the best units or taking titans. A large game is mostly for fun so making suggestions how tweaking units is kind of pointless since you're just out to have fun. I hope you enjoy the game!
