What up wargamers?! First post on these forums so I might aswell as leave an impression. I'm making a 1750 GK list for an upcoming Tournament! I'll just cut to the chase and give the list:

HQ:
Grandmaster
-Psycannon
-Nemesis Daemon Hammer
-Psykotroke Grenades
-Rad Grenades

Ordo Malleus Inquistor (I had 25 Points left )
Elites:
5 Paladins
-2 Psycannons
-2 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer
-1 Nemesis Warding Stave
-1 Brotherhood Banner

Troops:
5 Grey Knights
-1 Psycannon
-4 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer (Master Crafted and on Justicar)
-Razorback w/Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter and Psybolt Ammunition

5 Grey Knights
-1 Psycannon
-4 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer (Master Crafted and on Justicar)
-Razorback w/Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter and Psybolt Ammunition

5 Grey Knights
-1 Psycannon
-4 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer (Master Crafted and on Justicar)
-Razorback w/Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter and Psybolt Ammunition


Fast Attack:
Stormraven Gunship

Heavy Support:
Dreadnought
-2 Twin-Linked Autocannons
-Psybolt Ammunition

Dreadnought
-2 Twin-Linked Autocannons
-Psybolt Ammunition

Razorbacks and Dreadnoughts shuffle around for objectives and vehicles potshots. Grandmaster and Paladins (Grandmaster makes then scoring) zoom in on stormraven and kill everything. Any fixes, thoughts, critique, etc is greatly appreciated!

Hey

It's definitely stout. alot of shooting. you have to be wary of horde armies i think, and volume of fire units, since your 5 man squads will melt under alot of shots. Personally, i would replace those 2 HQ's with draigo, that way your pallies become a scoring unit as well, but thats just me. Also, might want to find a way to sneak an apothecary into the pallies, that makes them nigh unkillable nowadays.

Well the grandmaster makes the paladins a scoring automatically (grand strategy, roll a D3, automatically at least a 1, so palys are scoring ). And to me kaldor got nerfed since his attack are only AP3 (force sword).
Apothecaries are useless now. They were good in 5th but since Feel No Pain is only on a 5+ paying 75 points ain't worth it. Thanks for the insight though!

looks solid to me let me know how you do against the armies so play against. maybe if you can get a psybolt ammo in there might be nice. paladins with sword for the +4 ini

I think you would be better off having a 10 strong GKSS with psybolt with a rhino. I'd take my justicars with halberds it's really easy to lose that hammer in challenges. IMHO the raven should be plain, it's most likely going to be a round 2 target. So Hurricane sponsons and psybolt make it too expensive for what it already is. TL LC/MM is the way to go, and the warding stave isn't going to be very useful IMO. Points could be spent elsewhere. You could possibly save up for coteaz, divination will be your best friend. I agree with Vulcan, against hordes you will struggle a bit. Orks will overun you midfield I suggest a NDK if you can ration points elsewhere. It's not solid but it could be improved, youre on the right track. Keep us updated on how it goes for you! Cheers!

drop the psycannon, costs WAY too much to be worth it, and drop the hammer to a sword, dont wanna waste that I5 and a 3++ in CC is awesome. also I would drop the rad nades to save points but leave them (or drop psycho nades) is fine IMHO

Ordo Malleus Inquistor (I had 25 Points left )
pretty bad thing to do with 25 extra pts, and how do you have 25 EXTRA points?? that means something was done wrong, I mean 5 pts sure, 10 even...but 25? cmon

Elites:
5 Paladins
-2 Psycannons
-2 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer
-1 Nemesis Warding Stave
-1 Brotherhood Banner
I really hate the stave, especially since its CC only and the fact 2+ armor is so much better and you cannot allocate yourself anymore.... also I'd drop the banner and save that for 7+ man squads, get another hammer and halberd, though I can see a sword or 2 being nice for the better invul

Troops:
5 Grey Knights
-1 Psycannon
-4 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer (Master Crafted and on Justicar)
-Razorback w/Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter and Psybolt Ammunition
strike squads should NOT have halberds, costs WAY too much for a single attack, other than that these guys are golden (though I like 10 in a rhino more shooting both cannons out the top)

5 Grey Knights
-1 Psycannon
-4 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer (Master Crafted and on Justicar)
-Razorback w/Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter and Psybolt Ammunition
see above

Fast Attack:
Stormraven Gunship
-Twin Linked Assault Cannon/Heavy Bolter/Hurricane Bolters/Psybolt Ammunition
I dont like using these as gun ships :/ I mean you pay for the transportation capabilities, use them! though worse comes to worse, I like using TL LC or PC on top with TL MM on the front, nice and effective for "free"

Heavy Support:
Dreadnought
-2 Twin-Linked Autocannons
-Psybolt Ammunition

Dreadnought
-2 Twin-Linked Autocannons
-Psybolt Ammunition
good stuff

IMHO some more troops would be nice, maybe look into making the paladins into terminators and squeeze in a dreadknight with heavy incin and teleporter (making him scoring with GM)

good luck!!

I belive you have 6 weapons for 5 guys.

Imo I would go for 10man squads in a rhino. And buy them psybolt ammo.
Get two of those and combat squad them later if you like.
Also, remember that the rhinos and razorbacks can very easy give your opponent first blood.

HQ:
Grandmaster
-Psycannon - Costs too much for what its worth with this unit
-Nemesis Daemon Hammer
-Psykotroke Grenades
-Rad Grenades

Ordo Malleus Inquistor (I had 25 Points left ) - Also a waste
Elites: - Brotherhood Banner never seemed useful to me with paladins, you are only gaining 1 overall attack on a charge by that Paladin not having a CC weapon. Warding Staff is a waste, you are better off having 2 of them with swords to have a +2/++3 in CC.
5 Paladins
-2 Psycannons
-2 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer
-1 Nemesis Warding Stave
-1 Brotherhood Banner

Troops: - FOR ALL STRIKE MODELS - Halberds are a complete waste of points, you are taking a model with 1 base attack, isnt fearless and doesnt have Purifiing Flame(Like Purifiers) and making the model cost ONE point less.
5 Grey Knights
-1 Psycannon
-4 Nemesis Halberds
-1 Nemesis Daemon Hammer (Master Crafted and on Justicar) - - Also a waste of points for the MC, a 5 man unit if Strikes in any sort of combat will die quickly, they are pretty much meant to hang out in their Razorback and wait till turn 5 to get out for an objective.
-Razorback w/Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter and Psybolt Ammunition

5 Grey Knights
-1 Psycannon
-4 Nemesis Halberds

Buy the end of all that cutting down needless cost, you could actually add something useful though. =)
