100% legal and kinda trolly(kinda is a understatement)
I know its not the best infact DE would laugh at me as they table me proably turn 3.
Anyway Dragio makes everything he can scoring,turn 1 Dreads jump foward shoot and wait, turn 2 deathwing come in dreads again shoot(move if need be) then assault turn 3 mass assault everything possibble
Dragio mans the gun line(kind of a waste of a 275 point model but at least he serves his purpose...
C&C welcome i want to know if this is anything but funny but even possible to being competitive
The only models i would need is dragio and a DK so it kinda works $ wise.
Dragio 275
Paladain 55

I hate to burst your bubble, but belial only makes terminators troops in a primary detachment, so you would have to bring some scouts or something to fill that gap.
Sorry :( I hate it when rules get in the way of fun, but I don't think your opponent would appreciate and illegal list

3500 (ish) points
who-knows-how-many points random stuff |

Like so sorry had to run downstairs and grab my codex :/
Only thing that comes to mind, i could change the scouts to camo cloaks and give the TL a combat shield which I dont think I should do.
Also can't decide on telepathy or TK.

Why have the Dreadknights got the worst weapon? In fact why don't they have all the equipment they need?
Why the big unit of Deathwing Knights?
What is your plan against Vehicles?
Just in general why?
You can't win an objective game with that list without tabling and your army is hardly set up to do that. I don't get the DW contingent at all I just don't understand what they are doing that Paladins couldn't. l just don't understand what you think thus list can do?

3-6 scoring units i could win in a scoring mission, dw contigent is to play clean up with what the dreads couldnt do.paladins are over costed and under functioned as a unit, this list is just a fast paced list that could mess up a gun line army in no time.
Why? Because its funny
tanks? str 7 ap 4 rending templates a quad gun and a bunch of high str melee attacks.
Deathwing knights because originally i had belial but he doesnt make termies troops so i went with knights, i could still change them to RBK and make it a faster army and if i squeeze the points right i could add a unit of devs in there

The Heavy Psycannon is a terrible weapon lacks the AT punch of the normal version. Blasts aren't great against vehicles. Relying on CC for AT is not a great idea.
The DW are not that much cheaper than Paladins and Paladins provide ranged AT are troops and utilise that 275 point Character you're using...
Why no Sword on the DKs? Its basically mandatory.

Not really the sword lets you reroll but takes place of the other DCCW(which still gets smash), which in return takes away 1 attack IMO it isnt worth the 25. i was really thinking of changing the DK over to RBK it would add more shooting and even some mobility.
I hade a list with 20 marines and a dakka banner but i think it would just get shot down to easy.
Is 3 DKS overkill or just right? I was thinking of dropping one to add some DEVS and more long range punch just not sure yet what to add. The 1 man paladin squads would be pushed into reserve as much as possible using dragios rull so i think they are fine to score. The entire point of this list is to overwhelm the enemy before they can do anthing to take out all 3 DKS and whatever else i decide to back them up with.
Would the DK be worth its points if i only used it as allies to a DK force?

Check the FaQ with the sword you are still S10 and still have 4 attacks base (5 on the charge), you just get to reroll everything. That is easily worth 25 points.

3 is just right, devs are poor and don't fit this list.
The 1 man paladin squads would be pushed into reserve as much as possible using dragios rull so i think they are fine to score. The entire point of this list is to overwhelm the enemy before they can do anthing to take out all 3 DKS and whatever else i decide to back them up with.
I get all that but I don't get why you've got Draigo over a vastly cheaper GM if you're not using him in combat and not taking massed Paladins to support the DKs? Pallies work great with DKs as your opponent wants to shoot S8 AP2 stuff at them which is also what he needs against the DKs... Thus you make his tsrgettimg decisions difficult. DWKs on the other hand with a 3++ and 1W need small arms fire to be dealt with and therefore you make your opponents firing decisions easy...
