My local store is hosting an independent GT later on this year. So I thought I would make a list for the tournament that way I can use it as a shopping list. So I was wondering on what you guys think of the list and do you think it would be any good at a GT.

I like the list. It is short on models, but that's fairly inescapeable when GK are involved. 3 LR is always hard to beat. My only suggestion would be to use sisters rather than storm troopers, as you get alot for your 1 pnt. I don't know what to say about the Death Cult assassins there... playtesting should make that a clear yes or no. Good Luck.

Yes I do think sisters would be better, but they also have to have a sister superior and a minimum of nine sisters. Making them about 30pt. more then my storm troopers.

I don't see this winning any games.

Drop the Death Cult Assassins: With the new Counter-charging, they will get outnumbered and hit back with many attacks. It does not take much to kill t3 with a 5++ save.

The extra points could be used to get a psycannons on the Grand Master and Retinue.

I'm not sure that you need 3 Raiders. If you drop one you could boost the numbers on your Grey Knight squads.

If you use storm troopers, utilize their ability to get meltas or plasma. I would probably give the squad dual plasma and let them camp on your objective.

If you also drop the Inquisitor, you can get another Storm trooper squad with dual meltas or plasma. Or you could combine the Storm trooper points and get another GK troop squad.

Good Luck.

And thank you for the advice Adeptsister. I bought 3 raiders because that is the only thing Grey Knights can ride in, so I bought one for each squad.

why are you taking a grey knight master over a brother captain? I think its a waste of points. Grew knights are a ranged army. If you get into CC with any dedicated combat troops your 3 wounds and force weapon are pretty much worthless. They can't take it. Get a brother captain with a pyscannon and a retinue with 2 more instead. Also targeters are your best friends in a DH army. For 1 point your units can always move back 6 inches and make sure your opponent can't close. 3 landraiders are scary but I think 2 + another unit of termies or brothers are a better call.

Also in regards to your inquisitional storm troops, in May once the the new IG codex comes out you should instead take the Witch Hunters storm troopers instead of the Daemon hunters ones. Because there is no helgun entry in the book, check it out. therefore I believe (I could be wrong) the new codex rules will take effect since it has the most up to date rules.

Drop the Stormtroopers and upgrade one Land Raider to a Land Raider Ares (Look it up) (300pts). They're a mix between a Land Raider Crusader/ Redeemer and a Vindicator. I'm not sure if you're allowed one yet but they're bloody powerful. I'm currently making a Grey Knight one. Also drop the Smoke Launchers and possibly give some of the Grey Knights Psycannons.

The LR Aries is a Apoc only vehicle, it wouldn't be allowed in tournies.

Keep the STs as they have targeters that allow you to measure range before shooting, could come in handy, just try not to abuse it by putting them right behind a unit and measuring for both.

The list does look pretty good. Load up on Psycannons and let the ST take your objectives. Sisters could be helpful for the 3+ armor save, but make sure to just use this unit as an objective grabber for your side. Grey Knights are amazing in CC, but with the right people lol... VS. Orks, not so much, VS. Crons yes yes!

You could give the Grey Knights Articifier Armour, that gives them a 2+ save, same with the Stormtroopers.

No you can't lol... Anyway if you could that would make them what, at least 40+ points a model reducing the number of GK's further lol. I would just give your ISTs 2x Meltaguns. I would also take the Inquisitor with 2x Mystics. Psycannon warriros would also be a better choice if you can get those, they will tear apart daemon armies lol.
