Hey, I'm a GK player and am just wondering which land raider to make. I will be mainly up against Space Marines if this will help you make a decision.
Thanks in advance!

Depends what you're wanting it for, and what else is in your army.
At the same time, my brain says 'classic land raider' because a grey knight army tends to come laden with umpty-ump stormbolters but doesn't have much access to the lascannon.

I've never gotten the Redeemer to work, even back when BA could Deep Strike them. They just get shot down before they get to range.
Crusader is WAAAAY more useful, as is the Godhammer type (dual TL Las Cannons and HB).

I like the Redeemer. It's ready and willing to be the CCW tank and shines in the under 24" zone. So you charge forward, putting all your effort into movement, then you slow down, melt things and the unit charges. They can be pretty hit or miss, depending on the opponent though. But Bolters are always a miss in my book. Can't stand them, so I would much rather torch things than keep shooting bad guns and hope for the best.

Because I have seen a redeemer flamer work once. Since the thing came out. You'll kill more meq with the crusader.

Because all Land Raiders kinda suck as shooty vehicles. The Phobos doesnt have enough shot output, the Redeemer can't get its Flame Templates to bear very well and the Crusader is stuck with Hurricane Bolters. However the Crusader wins because its the best at doing the main job of a Land Raider - delivering an assault unit into combat. You can stick more guys in a Crusader, so therefore it wins.

Crusaders can fit more models right?
It's going to get shot to pieces anyway, might as well try to get as many guys up-field as you can in the process. Maybe it can defend an assault squad long enough for it to be meaningful?
The Helios is my personal preference.

In a Grey Knight army the vanilla Land Raider is the best as it brings some lascannons to the fight.
No land raider is a good idea in general with Grey Knights. You should be running as many terminators as possible and deep striking everything.

I'm on the 'Nilla Train. The lascannons do decent work and with their range you'll use them more. You can kill more tanks for sure, but you also can kill more foot units since you can fire at them from across the table.

I'd say go crusader, the redeemer is cool and all, but you probably won't get much use out of its flamer things.
Also crusader fits better fluff wise with the grey knights, having a knightly name and all.
