Dreadknight. It has S10 and Force Weapon, AND an Invulnerable Save.

For thirteen years I had a dog with fur the darkest black. For thirteen years he was my friend, oh how I want him back.

Well, they strike at the same time, so it could potentially win, it's just that it only has 4 attacks; it needs to hit with everything, wound with everything (6 vs 6 so wounds on 4+) AND have everything go past the Invulnerable Save to kill the Dreadknight. The Dreadknight needs to wound once with S10 and pass a psychic test and it's goodbye Tomb Stalker.

To be fair though, the Dreadknight is designed to kill Monstrous Creatures.

I'm afraid that'd be the Dreadknight as well. Between the Heavy Incinerator, being able to move as Jump and the Greatwsord giving rerolls to everything, it's simply better. The Tomb Stalker has one more wound and an extra toughness, but the Dreadknight has a 2+/5++ save.

The Dreadknight is by far the better monstrous creature, and I have used a Tomb Stalker many times.
