Fluffy yet decent? What do you guys think? Will probably just roll on Divination to get Prescience for some re-rollable grav bike action.

Spoiler:

Swap out the 3 bike squads for a dark shroud and a squad of black knights, you will be much happier.

Also, dont forget before every battle, your librarian and your Wolf lord need to fight to see who the warlord is

I could see where a Dark Shroud or two would be really good. May have to tweak a few things and try it.

For 80 points they are just to good to pass up, they have a 2+ rerollable, and give your black Knights a 2+ on top of that, anything with in 6 inches has fear AND ignores over watch so.

Does that just confer to other Dark Angel units or "Friendlies" as well? My friend has a DA Codex so I can look later on but just wondering.

TWC and Wulfen with an enhanced save and not vulnerable to over-watch sounds pretty spicy.

Just checked my dex, it's only dark Angels that get the buff, you can thank white scares for that one lol.

Oh well it was worth a try...haha. I still might have to try it even though I was trying to run the Dark Angels for Grav support more than anything (Space Wolves kinda have CC on lock-down) not saying the Black Knights can't hang or are bad...they just aren't Wulfen or TWC.

But I really like the models of Black Knights so still may pursue it!

**Backspacehacker**

DA are pretty good in the gran department, and as much as I like grav, I favor the black Knights simply because not much can with stand 10+ rerollable plasma shots, they can also support your TWC via the stasis nade, anything under the blast, even if it does not get wounded, suffers a -1 WS and -1 I so you are almost garunteed it strike first.

Yeah Black Knights are best unit in codex and you should field a Ravenwing Command Squad of six models with apothecary.
