So I'm considering this type of army for an upcoming tournament and was wondering Dakka's thoughts. Would most likely Drop everyone in turn 1 and have the knights attempt to run into B2B contact with other units of Deathwing to give them a shield wall. Maybe put belial with one of the knights squads for better use of his presicion deep strike.

Put Knights into a Land Raider.

Get some landraiders. DW at 2k need at least 2.

Without them you have a strong likelihood of being tabled.

Something more like this?

Yea. Deathwing knight and the dwcs should never be walking anywhere. And deepstrike is bot an option either. Their ar. Precious assets and you only get a few of them do wasting them by walking up a board or deepstriking is useless.

However this new build is basically a run of the mill deathwing team and is hopelessly predictable.
