Good news. This is the best time in the hobby. Full of promise. GW lets us down each time and we know it but secretly we're hoping that this is the edition that GW gives us a balanced game that can also be played competitively at tournaments. I'm loving it.

No there's not. There's only the Dreadknight.

aegis armour=armoured power armour.

dreadknight=armoured terminator aegis armour.
Aegis armor = power armor with inscriptions
Terminator armor = terminator armor with inscriptions
Dreadknight = armored terminator armor with inscriptions

I don't think anyone would think that terminator armor was "armored power armor". That's just derp.

The hell? Where are you getting 3 grand masters from? Angron was banished by 100 terminators and 1 Brother-Captain and zero Grand Masters. Also, the Brother-Captain banished him almost entirely by himself.

Now that you mention it, I can't find my source anymore, guess I might be wrong. I'd still like to know where YOU got your info from, if it was so easy for this BC to banish Angron why did almost everyone die?
The armageddon art/story book. The force is 100 grey knight terminators lead by a brother captain. They are stationed at an imperial guard battle line, emerging to fight once angron+12 bloodthirsters take the field. Most of the grey knights engage the bloodthirsters, and a handful die to angron, but the brother captain is able to focus the entirety of his soul, along with a bit of backup from a squad of GKT, to banish angron. The brother captain dies from this effort.

aegis armour IS armoured power armour. inscriptions might help against daemons, but I doubt some insriptions are gonna stop solid bullets any time soon.

And wouldn't you know, it's no more effective against bullets than any other kinds of power armor.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."

This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

Sure bud. Aegis armor is armored power armor in the exact same way that power armor is armored power armor, and flak armor is armored flak armor.

The Cockatrice Malediction

I've just seen the final version of Codex: Grey Knights and there's a fluff piece describing the Draigo/Mortarion encounter in it!

--

Scene - MORTARION has killed JANUS, the Grandmaster of the Grey Knights and is now looking for DRAIGO to finish the job.

DEATHSHROUD 1: Hey Stern, where's Draigo?

DRAIGO: Right behind you Deathshroud.

DRAIGO blows away both DEATHSHROUD with his storm bolter. MORTARION drops his scythe and falls to his knees cowering before the fury of DRAIGO. DRAIGO draws his Nemesis Force Weapon and carves JANUS' name into the terrified MORTARION's heart.

DRAIGO: All right, Mortarion. You called down the thunder. Well, now you got it. You see that? It says, "Grey Knights Grandmaster."

MORTARION: Draigo, please don't kill me. Please.

DRAIGO: Take a good look at him, Mortarion, 'cause that's how you're gonna end up. The Chaos gods are finished. You understand me? I see an eight-pointed star, I kill the daemon wearin' it. So run, you cur. Run! Tell all the other curs the law is comin'! You tell 'em I'm comin'! And hell's comin' with me, you hear? HELL'S COMIN' WITH ME!!!

--

Next up: Draigo kicks Khorne off of his Skull Throne!

DRAIGO: Just want to let you know you're sitting in my chair.

KHORNE: Is that a fact?

DRAIGO: Yeah, that's a fact...

But there is NO armoured armoured armour! There's just some armour that's tougher than other armour.
