So, I've got my dozen or so GKT's sitting around needing a new use now that I can no longer use them with my IG, and as much as a Paladin list sounds interesting, I've decided that if I'm going to do that I'm going to go balls out and convert up the models to be Custodes. However, given that I already have the terminators, I can make the rest of this list for about $250, lemme know what you think.




HQ:

Castellan Crowe



Troops:

6x Purifiers, 2 Psycannons, 1 NDH, Razorback w/TL Assault Cannon, Psyammo.

6x Purifiers, 2 Psycannons, 1 NDH, Razorback w/TL Assault Cannon, Psyammo.

5x Purifiers, 2 Psycannons, 1 NDH, Razorback w/TL Assault Cannon, Psyammo. (crowe goes here)

6x Grey Knight Terminators, Incinerator

6x Grey Knight Terminators, Incinerator

(various mix of NFW's to be determined for termi's, suggestions? currently have 6 swords and 6 halberds IIRC, could mod some others)




Heavy Support:

Land Raider Redeemer, Psyammo, Multi-Melta

Land Raider Redeemer, Psyammo, Multi-Melta

Dreadnought, 2x TL Autocannons, Psybolt ammo.




should be 1994pts.

Thoughts?

purifiers with two psycannons need to be in rhino's, that razorback is a waste of points...

As far as i know crowe cannot join units, hence not be in the same transport, you could take an extra guy there.

I would take landraider crusaders without upgrades, i don't think you need flame templates when you have that many purifiers.

This is similar to my upcoming list both in form and in origin (What can I do with mostly what I already have?)

You understand the value of Purifiers! Excellent!

However... Ask yourself each time if the Psybolt ammo is worth it. If it is you can save a ton of points by making a full squad and then combat squadding it. What targets do you see yourself killing more effectively with the "psyammo" on the redeemers? I don't think it effects the flamers (per the FAQ.) Also... Isn't Crowe a non-IC and thus not able to join squads?

I'm thinking that the answer to how to use the random mixture of weapons on old GKTs is the librarian with quicksilver/might of Titan. Make his intended retinue out of sword bearers, and a second squad out of halberdiers and hammers. That way no one gets left out of the "high strength and initiative" party and your librarian gets a posse of 2+/4+ rather than 2+/5+.

I like it, other than the crowe thing, which has been amply covered; I love the amount of firepower with the psybolted assbacks. This is a solid, if somewhat standard, TAC list that will do well against hordes and elites alike.

You're going to want to stick a couple hammers on those terminators. I might go so far as to suggest losing a terminator from each squad and throwing in an 80 point tequisitor with psycannon for a little more shooting over CC. I'd love to cram a vindicare into this list to help out with the mirror match, but then again, I try to cram a vindicare into every list because I'm obsessed with them.

Hrm, forgot about Crowe not being an IC, bumping the razors down to rhinos will save points, I could almost fit in a librarian or something.

GK librarians are better than ice cream. Damn. It's late, why am I so hungry. I'm going to green stuff a librarian drizzled with hot fudge.
