Hey, i haven't posted in awhile but id like some advice from the community if you guys dont mind.
So, last time i was on dakka, my Grey Knights army was as big as,
2x landraiders (1 of which is a crusader)
2x terminators 5 man each (or palys)
1x puragation squad 10 guys
3 dreads and 1 valkyrie (which i guess i cant use but its a reallly cool model) (or can i ? )

to update this i now have added :
1x 5 man purifier squad
2x5 man terminator (or pally) squad
2x10 man interceptor squad
2x forgeworld stormeagle kit (for proxy as stromravens)


so i haven't really played the game,much, but im trying to sort out in my head what the points cost of all this is....like is this 1500 points ? more ? can someone give me a ballpark ?
and is there anything you guys think i should add to even it all out, maybe some more dreanoughts or another flyer. ? landraiders ?

i know you are going to say "hey wheres your HQ choice"
answer is, i really haven't chosen one, i dont like the model for crowe or dragio, or stren, but i might buy them and convert the gak out of them to make me actually enjoy the model.
but i might put crowe in my 5 man purifier squad..and dragio in a termie squad...am i allowed to have both of them or do i have to pick just one ?


lastly, i think i might save up for a mars pattern warhound titan , is something on this scale worth it for the size of army i have or should i have more bodies and vehicles ?, not sure if im allowed to use it but its gorgeous of a model...!!!

and if you guys want some photos illl be glad to post what you have done so far. and sorry for all the random questions and excess of typing, just have a lot of stuff on my mind for this project, ALL YOUR HELLPPS ARE MUCH WELLLCOMEE !!

p.s.s any ideas or advice for display cases or putting models on display ?

I would hazard a guess as to about 1000 pts without wargear.
Never played grey knights so I can't hekp with options.

But with the rule changes, you can take anything you want, the only restrictions is each detachment needs to have matching faction keywords (Imperian, Black Legion, etc) so you could just run multiple detachments to use what you like.

Looks like at least 2000 points to me, two land raiders plus two stormravens would be roughly 1300 points on their own.

Voldus is a great beatstick. A hammer that doesn't have a -1 to hit is amazing with his Character stat line. Plus he gets all 3 psychic powers which can be handy.

I agree the Draigo model is meh at best and I am working on making my own conversion from the Terminator/Paladin box.

that being said as it currently is there is never a reason to take a terminators over paladins. A fully kitted out paladin squad will run you 304 points. So if you run those 4 squads as such your already looking at 1300 points and you haven't even used half your models.

You have well well over 2k points with all your current models so you have many routes to take. If I had to make a rough guess I would say your looking at 4k points. If not more Doomglaive dreads are the best option for Grey Knights this edition no question if you play with FW.

Yes you can use the Valkyrie you just won't be able to get anyone to ride in it unless you pick up some guard. Characters cannot join units anymore either so you have to remember that. No more "deathstar" units. Apothecaries and banner bearers are now characters and not upgrades to paladin squads anymore either. I was going to advise picking up the index but Grey Knights are next in the chute for codex so I would just wait at this point.
