1850 on the nose

I've run it in a few games and it's actually done well surprisingly I had doomfists on the dreads initially but the paladin squads coupled with multi-meltas is enough to pop and drop everything thats gonna countercharge my bubble of fun. I have been playing a ton of games with the buckstandard lists with coteaz henchman, which is truly silly overpowered regardless if you go 6 troops or infinite, and crowe purifiers, which I have struggled with as they tend to get their transports popped then die like, gasp, space marines.

As far as how I use this list it goes if I get turn one I am assaulting turn one unless they reserve, looking at you DE, in which case I move to the center if possible always staying within 6" to get the 3+ cover that hopefully saves my butt. If I'm turn 2 hopefully its DoW lol but otherwise I'll be deploying normally using cover of buildings if available to get that 3+ otherwise stagger the ravens in the corner so at least one does. GS goes to giving the squads CA first and foremost and if I get a 3 I d6 who gets rerolls of 1 . Not a super competitive list but I've been having a lot of fun with it.

If you want to talk about GK deathstars, run like 3 or 4 squads of Death Cult Assassins in Stormravens with Coteaz. On the charge, 48 Power Weapon attacks at WS 5, Str 4, and Int 6 is hard to beat at 180 pts (if you don't count transports).

The problem with that many DCAs is that you first need to pop the transports such that the DCAs can charge the passengers.
This requires a more balanced list with some shooting elements (like Psyfleman Dreads).

Well you could run 3 12 (wo)man DCA squads in Stormravens for 1155 pts, Coteaz is an extra 100, and then you still have 595 pts to spread around to Psyfleman Dreads if you think 3 Stormravens won't do it. I hope the OP doesn't feel like I'm bashing on him, and I definitely am not trying to thread jack, just I feel like it can be done better.

I'm aware it can be done better considering I recently won my escalation league as well as got 1st and 2nd in CP's at Adepticon I know a thing or two about min/maxing and making competitive lists, this is not one of those and it's nice to theorize on whats best but 36 WYSIWYG tournament DCA's would be rather difficult to come by. I mean I am running about 10-25 total Crusaders depending on my final lists and it's been a pain coming by the necessary stuff to get them WYSIWIG as I only have 4 of the original models and have only been able to get 4 more at my local store.

How are your paladins holding a banner AND psycannons?

Psycannons are one handed for models with TA and the banner replaces your force weapons.

Ah ok, I wasn't sure about that. I was actually rolling around the thoughts of how to do a 2500pt all Terminator fun list. Has Draigo done very well? I was debating on him and Mordrak with a ghost knight crew. Have you tried land raiders with the paladins? It would seem you could fit more bodies with base Terminators and Mordrak.
