Hey guys I am trying to figure out if the doomfist gives the Dreadknight str 10? I was told it does, but after searching the faq and mrb I can only find where the great sword is str 10. I know he has the smash rule, but I am looking at his regular attacks.

What makes you think it gets Str10 from the sword?

Doomfists are DCCWs. Look up the rules in the main rulebook for DCCWs.

the FAQ clarifies that a Dreadknight with a Greatsword and Doomfist(it swaps one for the Sword) is Str10 and rerolls everything in melee.

Read P.54 in the Grey Knight Codex. It tells you exactly what the Doomfist does. (For reference Dreadnought Close Combat weapons are on P.60 in the BRB).

As others have noted? the Grey Knight FAQ does, though to put it properly: the dreadknight gets strength 10 with (from) the nemesis doomfist. The sword just allows it to reroll misses, failed wounds, and failed glancing or penetrating hits. (and provides an extra attack as a second DCCW)

yes it has changed from 5th edition where, because the dreadknight wasn't a walker, it didn't benefit from the x 2 Str.

Now the Dreadknight truly is the ultimate monstrous creature!

Except that it is not Fearless.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Nah, a dreadknight should be to far forward, right up in the other armies face, to run off the table edge.

Should be, but cause it to Fall back enough times you can run it off the table (especially when your GK opponent keeps rolling double 6's for Fall Back. Man was he pissed.).

It used to be when Monstrous Creatures had Fearless standard. Now they only get it if it is in their special rules.
