Apothecary is totally, always worth it. Especially with Draigo in the squad.

Get Extra Armor on the LR [Some people are going to go against it] The reason you should put Extra Armor on a LR is because youre GOING to fail fortitude EVENTUALLY. And the the fact that draigo and paladins are in there its going to be a HVT [high value target]

I haven't got the points . Trying to get this down to 1.5k.

Well you might like the apothecary, which is fine, but he's not cost-effective for a 5 man unit. Also, as you'll recall, he has no effect on S 8+ hits (krak missiles, meltas, lasers).

I suppose if you're just going to unload them straight into melee and keep them there then he's a better bet.

What would help tremendously would be if you could list those elements of your army that you regard as absolutely essential for your personal reasons (eg available models you want to use), and then we could go from there.

But if you're set on 5 paladins plus apothecary, Draigo, a land raider kitted as described, your purifiers and a grey knight squad plus dreadnought, there's really not much room for suggestions beyone marginal tinkering, I'm afraid.

I know. But the entire army is pretty much based around Draigo and the Paladins, however if I down graded the Paladins to Terminators then I could double the number of them.. who knows.
