For the points he's spending on that Death Star you could probably chuck two Imperial Knights at it.

Fellblade with battle of keylek and bubblewrap

1 s8 ap3 7" blast at 70+", 2 s9 ap2 small blasts at 36" and a demolisher cannon, all ignoring cover.

Catch whats left of the CM unit with the bubblewrap and erase the rest of the army with the fellblade.

Giving suggestions outside the GK codex really isn't all that helpful. I don't play IG.

Keep it within the GK codex, Imperial Knight allies, and Vanilla marines allies. Forge World options for these groups is fair game.

I'm assuming you want to use Grey Knights only? I would recommend Gatling Psylencers on Dreadknights, since you have no actual fast troops to hop around the board and snag objectives... Use IG tactics of huge volleys and just gib the guys out

Allied BA demolishers could work quite well as they could be given fast allowing them to maintain distance better. 3 pie plates a turn won't do much to the EW CM but will strip out the apothecary, Libbie and raven wing guys removing improved fnp and hit and run.

I've not played much 7th but characters can't tank templates can they?

Yes, they can. Unless they have the barrage special rule.

That's just bloody stupid, templates should never be tankable! Ah well just another "WTF GW?" moment. Where's the "cinematic" in that?

I second taking 2 imperial knights. For added effect vs invisibility you could take the knight with the sword for delicious auto hits (with more for every wound!)

Issue being the 2 chapter masters with eternal warrior.
it will take some fenangling to get the two dreads into the right angle and at that the bikes still get there 3+ at worst a 4+ jink (IIRC possibily better). it might be better to shunt and angle some templates on them to toast the flack first. once he loses HnR its GG.

how many bloody points is this guy spending on this?!?
against a power player of this magnitude you'd be justified in taking a warhound!
I'm sure four d-weapon blast markers would spoil the party!

Assuming a naked DA libby on bike, and a RW command squad with no toys, it's 670 pts.

Taking 1-2 imperial knights wouldnt be a bad idea ... take the melta cannon and use them to tarpit the deathstar and use the rest of your GKs to play to the objectives.
