Main objective is to pull off a good Alpha Strike then mop up.

I would drop the extra hammer from the interceptors, you really only need 1 if CC happens.

Libby could also toss the halbred and vortex of doom-it is a bit too risky to use with the knights, and most of the time you want to use rift or other assault phase based powers.

I would try to squeeze points in for another ghost knight, perhaps a second hammer.

What if I drop all the Halbreds from the Knights and go with swords instead. I can then swap out Vortex for Quicksilver. This will cause me to do a massive re-modeling project though. In saying this have wanted to magnetize there arms for awhile though so there might be a little bit of incentive for me. Also the Libby would be cool with a Magnetic arm. Might give him options for Sword, Stave & Halbred.

So I have magnatised all the Ghost Knights and The Libbys arms so the can have either Swords or Halbred's. I have also made another Hammer arm as well. new list looks like this.

Thoughts?

Looks cool, not much left to say except Good luck!

I've put together another list. This time I dropped the Libby and Vindicare for some more guys. Curious as to which list looks more solid.

With this list I can Combat Squad the Interceptors if I need to to give me 9 units in my opponents deployment zone turn 1 with 2 more dropping in from reserve turn 2+. Generally I probably won't be combat squading them but the option is there if I need it.

Thought???

This will do well as an alpha strike army--deploy everything out of sight and shunt T1.

I might drop a GKI and use the ~320pts to get an Inquisitor and some more GKSS bodies.
Termie, PML1, Psycannon with a couple skulls will put him at 116. He should DS with Mordrak, and 4 S7 shots should pop a tank on T1, making Mordrak's unit much more useful the turn they drop in. The skulls are of big help against anything that might Infiltrate and threaten your GKSS. Prescience will help a GKI on T2, or maybe Mordrak's unit.

The extra GKSS bodies will help you hold your objective in the backfield.

And finally, it's spelled "halberd" (and pronounced "hal-bird," not "hal-bread").

I was actually thinking of keeping the strikes in reserve to drop in turn 2 onwards.

I like the idea of the Inquisitors though. Might even add in a second Allied Inquisitor as well. That's only 160pts for 8 Psycannon shots and a couple of extra Hammers. Bargin
