Codex: Grey knights will be the one codex to bring them all together and in the darkness bind them.

Codex: Grey Knights means I can hear people whine about something other then the boys in red.

Codex: grey Knights will not be all that cool.

800 brethren and 2,000 other personnel were expected to reach Crows World within no more than 12 hours. They never arrived.

Why not just collect an army of each? Then pool them together for a big game of Apocalypse?

Why does anyone give a damn about Xeno Hunters? They're just Deathwatch Space Marines, which contributes to your complaint about another Marine codex.


There are more things that can be in Xeno Hunters than there is in Demon Hunters and Witch Hunters.

Think all the Adeptus Biologis stuff, Deathwatch Marines (small numbers, maybe only 2 different squads), Mercenaries, and Rogue-trader like stuff etc

The Jokaero alone is a sign of the uniqueness an Ordo Xenos codex could have had.


Aren't Jokaero aliens? Wouldn't aliens be kind of uncomfortable in the company of a load of alien hunters?


No more so than a Daemonhost in a Daemonhunter army or Pentient Psykers in a Witch hunters army. They serve a similar purpose.

On moon miranda.

Having gotten a chance to read the GK codex recently, I have to say that I'm astonished. They managed to make even more pants on head slowed fan-ficy fluff than they did with the SM, SW and BA books, giving the worst Sam/Frodo internet terribad fanstories a run for their money.



When will they finally stop and remove Mat Ward?

Well, for instance, Draigo has Killed Daemon Prince M'kar twice, carved his name into Mortarion's (the Death Guard Daemon Primarch) heart as his first act as Lord Grand Master for the death of the previous Grand Master, held a pass for two days for an IG regiment to escape and landed every single blow and bolter shot for two days, got sucked into the warp and killed a bloodthirster and takes its axe to reforge into a new sword, burns Nurgle's garden and destroys Tzeentch's city single handedly and buries a lord of Change in it, and now Daemons are too afraid to face him in battle. Now he spends is time fighting through the realm of chaos, sometimes being able to return and getting sucked back in again.

They now teleport out of drop pods mid-descent, leaving the pods to crash down amongst the enemy like an ordnance barrage. They call this maneuver the "Knightfall"

They also have an ability called "Knightwatch" which involves shooting during the opponents movement phase.

They all benefit from "KnightVision"

They will have a heavily armored cavalry unit with power lances called the "Knight Knights"

It's real. All of it is real. I personally think this fluff is worse than Calgar's in the 'ridiculouslly OTT' sense. I am trying to justify it to myself...but yeah. Beating an Avatar is ok, but having your first act as Lord of the Grey Knights being to curbstomp a primarch....yeah, that's pretty bad.

What about Mortarion? All that I see in his fluff is the battle with M'kar.

Codex Grey Knights whiped its with origional 40k fluff

Codex Grey Knights will make GW thousands by having every tween wet there pants when they hear they can table veteran players with half the model count, half the time painting, and half the tactical effort... fml

Codex Grey Knights says "Dark eldwho, what, now?"

Codex Grey Knights was seen back handing starscream

Codex Grey knights eats teddy grams and s grizzly bears

Codex SW and Codex BA were actually just unfinnished verzions of Codex Grey Knights.


If even half the fluff is true Im going to make fun of ever Grey Knight player I see for even having the adacity to promote such fluff garbage and over the top by spending money on it.
