Like the Grey Knights need more things right?

Anyways though since the GK have some of the best armories of the imperium, it kinda surprises me they don't have these items (and rhino based support tanks, but thats another story!)

What do you think of my interpretations of them?

Spoiler:

Looks good, but I would give it the options to take Gatling Psilencers and Heavy Psycannons.

Edit: Forgot to look at the Thunderfire Cannons: I like it, but the Warp Web shells look a bit useless: As Daemons are Deep Striking, a Difficult Terrain test isn't going to do much to prevent them assaulting, and 9/10 of your units make them I1 anyway due to Psyck-Out Grenades. I would suggest that maybe you change it so that any Daemon or Psyker hit by one of these shells halves its WS level until the next turn, similar the the Grimoire of True Names from the previous Codex.

Contemptors were made before the Heresy, and were rare even then.

Why would the Grey Knights, who were formed afterwards, have them? >.>

That is true about contemptors. I also don't think they have thunderfire cannons because it doesn't really suit their way of war. Inquisitors may find it useful, but they could just make use of IG siege weapons.

Atomic Shielding + Psyker Pilot = a need for way more than a 20 point increase.

It functionally gives the Contemptor 2 saves against certain damage

Well I was kinda going on the fluff that Grey Knights do things with no explanation. I'm sure since they already have some odd bits of Xeno tech (psilencers) and all sorts of other goodies, they may have somehow obtained a few Contemptor armors throughout their mysterious existence

Alright, raised the price of it though by an additional 25. Also added in the Heavy Incinerator and the Gatling Psilencer

I guess that TF cannons dont exactly fit in with their playstyle. I just thought it would be cool for them to have some more big guns
