Before I post the list, I'm not interested in attempting to go undefeated. I'm willing to compromise pure competitiveness for theme, so a few caveats;

The Grey Knights will stay in regardless of feedback. It fits with my theme.
The Land Raider that transports the Grey Knights is under the same rule.

Given that, I want to make sure this list won't get its face stomped in. Any thoughts welcome;



Master of the Forge + 2 Servitors w/ Power Weapon

Dread w/ Plasma Cannon

5 GKs w/ Justicar (Justicar carries Psy Hood)

10 Tac Marines w/ Flamer + ML
Rhino

10 Tac Marines w/ Plasma + ML

10 Tac Marines w/ Plasma + LC

10 Tac Marines w/ Plasma + LC

LR + Extra Armour

Predator w/ Auto Cannon + HB Sponsons

1850



Thought is, all marines CS down in primary objective missions. Tac Squad w/ no Rhino combat squads as normal, plasma squad teams up w/ MOF in a LR on an objective. MOF can get out and crank on the LR if need be, or fix a dread. This would give me 5 scoring units or 9 if I combat squad.

AT:
3 Twin Linked Las (One Raider is moving 12" so will machine spirit a single las, other raider is squatting)
2 Tac Squad Las cannons
2 Tac Squad MLs
Pred AC for light armor


Anti-Infantry:
Plasma Cannon Dread
1 Flamer
2 Plasma Gun
Lots of Tacs
Grey Knights
Pred w/ AC and HB


I'll start with a fair amount of armor on the board;

3 Rhinos
1 Dread
2 Land Raiders
1 Predator



Thoughts? Will this get it's teeth kicked in? Thanks!

Nice touch with the psychic hood on the Justicar. His leadership is only 9 but still....nice.

Lots of boots on the ground. I would be interested to see how it fares against an assault army.

Are the Tacs without a Rhino riding the last LR right? I'd give em a Flamer and a Multi-Melta or Missile Launcher instead and use those 20 points to get Multi-Meltas on both Land Raiders.

Yeah, I don't know if it's worth it or not. I could take a utility Librarian to give me a 33% say no to Lash...where Justicar suffers from 9 Ld. Dunno, thoughts...even worth it?

Yeah, that's one of the reasons I threw a Dread in there. I figured that with the abundance of armor I have, hopefully he would get ignored and throw a few plasma templates. He could save me a round or two of assault as well against horde assault. Then again, Plasma Cannon isn't really worth it (but looks cool!).

Tacs without Rhino will combat squad down, with the las team pulling AT duty. The other group will sit in a Land Raider on an objective in my territory. I could drop their plasma though to free a few points.


Any other thoughts?
