The grey knight codex is more new then the blood angels one (if i remember correctly) and has a higher Liberian rate due to every grey knight being at least a bit physic. So how come no Liberian dreadnoughts in their codex? :/

A Librarian venerable dreadnaught, now that would be badass

Balance reasons, probably.

Besides, all of their dreadnoughts are psykers already.

They're good enough.

A Librarian, especially a GK Librarian, is going to be in extremely hazardous situations. Situations that would most likely slay him outright and not leave him crippled but still alive. The job basically makes it highly unlikely you would survive to get put in a dreadnought. You either survive whole, or get totally crisped.

So let me get this straight you want a Venerable Dread with the ability to cast Nullzone on it's self? Or Hammerhand? Or Holocaust? Or Gate of Infinity?

Granted it would be amazing, it would also be OP, but then this is GK's and OP is the default setting.

GKs don't have Null Zone

In the codex does say some librians live to an age they can not battle any more due to age. So why not voltuntary go into dreadnought armour? Super dreadnought

GKs don't like Dreadnoughts fluffwise. I doubt they would voluntarily be interred in one.

Now a Librarian Dreadknight would be both fluffy and awsome!

No would not a Techmarine in a dreadknight be better? You could say because he a Techmarine and good with tech that his Dreadknight has FNP. So T6 2+5++ FNP 4 wound jump MC? Hello broken?

Damn.

"Oh, you aren't dead yet? FORCE WEAPON!"

... doesnt the Dreadknight have force weapon standard?

And to be honest, lets face it Dreadknights already roflstomped Daemon princes and greater daemons already, this is god damn over kill!

Yeah, they have Force Weapons but so does every GK.

I want a Mastery Level2 Dreadknight who can cast Libby powers.

adding onto this; I think when libbies get old they stay back on titan and guard secret knowledge/train the padiwans as opposed to going out and fighting.

I swear to god if your complaining about the GK codex....

Their Dreadnoughts already have Psychic powers and Force Weapons. Plus, unlike Libby Dreads, they get options.

Giving them Librarian Dreadnoughts would just be needlessly redundant.

Your English is atrocious.

Newer, not more new.
Than the blood angels codex.
Librarian
Psychic
I
So why is there no, not how come.

C'mon, man. Pick it up.

Because the grey knights have too much going for them, they really don't need more. As I've said before, they have the best basic troops for what they cost, they have awesome grenades and the best of all worlds when it comes to tanks.

Librarians are marines. They fight 'till they die.

All GKs are Psychic. As a result, the GK actually see less need in having Librarians. (they're not that important.)

This. We have nothing to complain about ever.
