1850 pts of plain fun

now how will it do if i stay hidden and let them come to me

I'd stay 24" away and drop Demolisher rounds on your head all game. Seriously, two squads in an 1850 army? How do you hope to win objective games? It's all well and good staying hidden but if you can't capture objectives you will lose.

I think that this list is the ultimate proof in why it's a bad idea to overspend on GKs. 700+ points for 10 T4 2+ 5++ models is rediculous.

Where you going to 'hide' 10 terminators? if your playing with enough LOS blocking terrain to hide 10 termiantors (x2) then your playing with far too much terrain.

As stated, were to hide 21 terminator bases?
Second, if you stay hidden, what will the opponent do? Well they will claim objectives and hug it with all they have. Forcing you to go for it in the open.
Second option for them is to just pass their turn until you show your self (kill points mission).
Hiding Grey knights, and specially Paladins doesn't sound very brave at all...

well each unit has 20 wounds, 2+ save and FNP

should be hard to kill, mebe ill just charge across the field in a straight line. its a fun list, to hell if its actually good.

Well good luck mate
Sounds tactical and fun. Rush in and wipe em out.

Well, it looks like the army is relatively inexpensive and fairly fast to build/paint.

Heck, I'd consider building and playing just for that reason alone. It's hard enough to find time to get armies completed these days.

Which S8+ AP1-2 weaponry will flat out deny, which is something you WILL be facing at this points level. Rather than go for two uber pimped squads, why not opt for 4 slightly less pimped squads? Less of an 'all your eggs in two baskets' army that way.

because if all my eggs are in 2 baskets, then when im throwing eggs at my enemies i have less baskets i have to carry

I have to agree with L. Wrex. I'd rather run 4 squads of 5 each and specialize the squads just a little more with their wargear to fit in the extra 2 apothecaries.

This would give you better coverage for pushing on objectives and it would give more tactical flexibility for surrounding targets and forcing them into your threat range. If you want to pound a unit, just use two squads in concert to achieve the same results as a big squad.

I actually played against this (basically) the other night with my Tau.

I have to admit, the squads were pretty hard to kill.. and some lucky deepstrike rolls kept him off the board until turn 4, when the squads came in together.

I was able to table him (it was annihilation) which is good, since he had.. umm.. 4 killpoints? And I had like 11 on the table.

The game could have went the other way pretty quickly however.

list looks pretty good but for hilarity try 3 land raiders draigo 2 lone paladins and 3 different assassins xD

haha, nice army dude! 22 models in 1850 points.

great!

well, it will never win, but that doesn't matter
