this is my prediction of how the rumored Grey Knight Jetbike unit is going to look like.

Cataphracts: 40 points each

..............WS....BS....S....T.......W....I....A....Ld...Sv
...............5.......4.....4....4(5)....1....4....2.....9....3+

Unit size: 3-10 Cataphracts

Wargear: Jet Bike with built in Storm Bolter, Nemesis Lance*, Storm Shield, Frag grenades

Nemesis Lance: Lances are an adaptation of a Grey Knights nemesis force weapon specificially designed for use upon their jetbikes. a Nemesis Lance is a NFW that grants them the furious charge rule, the Str bonuses do stack. Cataphracts count as justicars for the purpose of a NFWs stats.

Options: up to 2 models may replace their jetbikes storm bolters with incinerators for 15 points each or psycannons for 30 points each.

Special rules: Grey Knights

+strength when charging with a lance but no +initiative doesn't make sense to me.

I think the lances should just be NFW that give you furious charge. +1str, +1initiative on the charge.

i like that

this looks very deadly but very appropriate. Can they have NFW and storm shield? i guess tahts my only concern.

NFWs are just special CCWs and SSs may be used with 2 handed weapons so it doesn't matter either way.

i didnt know you could use a SS with a 2 handed weapon, looks good to me then.

BGB states that you may have a single two-handed weapon as well as a single-handed one.

Looks pretty good, a few comments though

1. I'm not sure they'd all have powerweapons it seems like just a little to much, especially if they are just plain grey knights on the bike.
2. I think 40 poinst a model is probably to expensive if they in fanct do not have power weapons.
3. Do you think they'd have twinlinked storm bolters or normal onces? The reason I mention this is that almost all bike troopers with the expection of DE have twinlinked basic weapons on the bikes. So maybe it would be twinlinked? to op?

The count as justicars for the purposes of the stats of their weapons so the Lances are power weapons that are +2 Str and grant furious charge.

Normal storm bolters. Twin-linked bolters used to be called Storm bolters as slang, but eventually they became a different weapon.
