I don't play my GK much- they tend to usually sit around and collect dust; however I've had an urge to lately, (maybe it's the rumors swirling around and what not.) Just figured I'd see what other people thought.

I am not trying to descourage you but wait for a new codex unless your just playing for fun. They are just not competetive ATM because of thier lack of anti armor and the prevalence of Mech lists right now. GK FA are a waste of points because of thier cost vs dependability and if you want to assault out of LR then you need to use GK term or large squads of GK's to win assaults as fast as possible.

Oh, I'm not looking to be competitive with them at all, I have a guard army for that.

It's just something I want to do for fun.

I'll just drop the FA and beef up my GK squads. I wasn't really thinking, but I don't necessarily need the GK with TH/SS to be a tank hunting force if I've got my IS wandering around to pop tanks.

They are very competative actually...I have been playing for half a year now and have done rather well in tournaments...

1 TH in the GK squad...with S6 you hardly need another S8 ever...and our Stormshields suck at the moment.

Psybolts on the justicars...not work the points.
A GK is worth 25 and thats 20 points in upgrades...ugh.

That fast attack might have its use but isn't scoring and will probably get shot up.
