i know i know "not another gk list" but meh i like em and its my first time trying to do a decent 1500pt list

anyways on with my list

Grandmaster
sword, stormbolter, rad grenades, 190

terminators
10x men 6 halbards 2 hammers, 2 psycannons brotherhood banner, psybolt ammo 495

Strike squad
10x men 4 halbards 2 psycannons 1 hammer psybolt 270

Interceptor squad
5x men, psycannon, daemon hammer, psybolt 170

Dread knight 1
Heavy Psycannon, Heavy incinerator, 200

Dreadknight 2
Gatling psilencer, heavy incinerator, 195

1500 on the nose,

idea, interceptors stay hidden and shunt when something big and dirty appears,

dreads for close in fire support ( i know what your thinking but im not using psy-rifle dreads!)

using GKGM for scout or counter attack depending on what i play to get close to the emeny or counter fast enemies

ideas and C&C welcome as always

later

The single Rhino is just going to fail I'm afriad because it's the single mech target. Everything in this army can deep strike so I would ditch the Rhino and use that as your strength and deep strike the Strike Squad as well.

Suggestions- Drop 2 of the strike squad (40pts worth) and give anyone with a sword halberds (25pts worth), then use the remaining 15pts to get your dredknight a daemonhammer. And give a termy a pair of Flachions. Thats 15pts.

I woul also suggest giving a few termies (maybe 3) Halberds- I6 power weapons is nothing to be laughed at. Even by Genestealers, who are I6 too.

But what do i spend 40points on? more hammers? or make jusicar weapons MC? and my terminators cannot deepstrike, its not in the speacial rules bit like it is on strike squads...

I told you already, 25pts on strike squad halberds (because swords for them are useless) and 10 on a dreadknight hammer and a pair of falchions (5pts) on the termies. And all termies can deep strike, its part of the ruiles for termie armour- check your wargear section.

Forgot to put that >.< half my termies have halberds, didnt think about it cuz there free :S and im put off the idea of dreadknight hammers, i loose an attack just for I4? kinda daft really, when i get 3 attacks basic, +1 for 2 doomfists +1 for charge so 5 on charge or 4 on charge and strike at int4.....if im chargeing the knights somethings gone wrong


sorry my fault looking wrong place :(

You get +1 for having two different close combat weapons anyway. So no, your not loosing any attacks.

And it says quite clearly in a lower section, and i quote
'Any model in terminator armour can be teleported to the batttlefeild. they may always choose to deep strike, even if the game type does not normally allow it'

another way you could spend the points is to split the termy squad and upgrade the strike squad into a purifier squad. On objectives, just give them scoring, combat squad, and have a combat squad or two squat back-field objectives, and on KP you can give them Scouts and outflank.

I know i know i found it, and i thought "power" weapons had to be 2 of the same type i.e. 2 hammers, 2 swords etc?

No, he needs 2 troop Choices, and 5 men Termie squads are no-where near as reliable.

Plus purifiers are more expensive

thats why i went 10 man strike and 5 man interceptor..... purifiers a good but not THAT good,

what about taking 4 halbards in the strike squad (20pts) and 1 daemon hammer on each dread knight? (20pts)

would that work?

Yes, but be sure to kill off the sword armed strike squadders 1st ok? Cos wasting those halberds is a... well, a waste. And yea, Purifiers are only good if you are using them to fight swarms. or really large groups of elites.

And on a point about I4 -1A: IMO you strike before the guy with the powerfist and loose one attack, rather than have 1 more attack and strike simultaniosly.

was going to kill swords first their ability only works on inv...... unless an FAQ comes out saying

"if model armed with Nemisis force sword doesnt have an invunerable save the sword grants them a 6++ in close combat..."

but yea i got it any other holes to poke?

It actually says in the wargear section 'If the model with the force sword has no Invunerable save, the force sword has no effect'.

My only other hole to poke is that i havent seen an updated list yet. When i see it, i'll see about poking holes.

Automatically Appended Next Post:
there its amended

so no more poking holes in my shiney list?

Nope, looks good. Althhough, are you sure you got your points figured out right? I thought you were dropping a couple of SS knights

and also...

I Challenge You!

Build me a grey kights army worthy of mordor... er, Mordrak. Make a mordrak list and i shall compare it to my own (mines tested and effective). 2000pts is the ticket.

Dont need to, dropped the rhino (40) gained 4 halbards (20) and 2 daemon hammers ( 2x10) straight swap over =]

ok. See the above edit to my post please

2000pts mordak...... bugger ok will try it after i finish work.... gonna be interesting

Dreadknights do not need daemon hammers when they have nemesis doomfist, they're already S10!

lol my argue ment but 10pts means I4.....

10 points for pre-powerfist strikes? Yea, so worth it. The powerfist Captain will be dead before you are, and you Also Also get pinning attacks or something. And that crew shaken bonus against veichles.

So 5x str 10 int 4 attacks BEFORE powerfists...... for 10pts....... yup gets my vote

and thats after Heavy incinerator fun times...... oki the units gonna mush wat 7/10 times? if i get to chagre or counter-attack from GKGM??

And, as i previously edited but you probably havent seen, the bonuses

nope didnt see, pinning and yea automatic shaken if i chase tanks around fun times but all hammers do that, i would like the sword to play with but 25pts too expensive for re-rolls to everything..

So does doomfist which doesn't cost anything.

doom fist is a power fist and is treated like a dreadnaught CCW for all other purposes, that includes strike last at Int 1 in combat if im not mistaken?

No, a doomfist is a dred CC weapon, which strikes at I1. Have you never read the rules?

Honest, you look like a seasoned player with THAT many posts.

wooo gang up on the "vet"

No dread cc weapons strike at your initiative not I1.
