3x drop pods (one for each purifier squad) 105

Inquisitor w/ 3 servo skulls, aegis defence line and comma relay 104

Deploy grey hunters w/inquisitor and librarian behind aegis line with comms relay. Deep strike reserve everything else. Set up servo skulls 19 inches from their deployment zone. Drop dread knights toeing that twelve inch line. Use the free run and torrent to hit their front lines. Drop the drop pods about three inches in front of their line. Use the 6 inch disembark to get in their face. Combat squadding the purifiers gives six usages of cleansing flame (nova, assault 2d6, 9inch range, str5 ap4 soulblaze.) I have 18 warp charges before the d6 roll.

So I hit them with 3-6 cleansing flames, each one hitting multiple units because the drop pods allow me to get 1 inch away from them. Then I run the dread knights up and torrent flame to the best of their ability. Then, I get to run the purifiers through the burnt corpses and get in their face AGAIN before launching off another 12 incinerators (essentially heavy flamers with soul blaze). After all that, I get to run up that lone little strike squad to burn them one last time before passing the turn.

Comments/critiques/concerns welcome and appreciated.

I can't comment on the Grey Knights cause it's not my area of expertise but for the Space Wolves, since it seems you don't have much planned for them, I'd switch the Grey Hunters for two minimal squads of Blood Claws. Then if you can squeeze five points out of something else, I'd take the points you saved from the GH to BC move plus the five and make the Rune Priest Mastery level 2. That way you get a few more warp charges to cast blessings on whatever you wanted.

Not sure if the list is legal in your tournament terms.

I would suggest some diversity. You are overkill on anti infantry but lacking in anti tank and anti MC outside of the two NDKs. Facing say wave serpents with WKs or mechanized IG will see this army get erased in short order. Losing a purifier unit and tooling a wolf squad or two with melta would help somewhat and at least give you options on who to drop in first.

Yea, for a legal list I found out I have to make the wolves primary. Against mech lists, I kill their infantry and then play the objective game.

But how do you do that without mobiity?

Also I don't see why your list isn't legal, unless thats a tourney specific restriction?

Iirc, a combined arms detachment has to be same faction as primary detachment. I don't remember for sure.

I kill the infantry in an alpha strike with the purifiers / torrent from the dread knights. Take a couple of the combat squads of purifiers w/out incinerators out the back side of the drop pods and run to the objectives.

I took the suggestion of dropping hunters to claws.. But instead of increasing mastery level I'm giving both squads a melta.
