I am looking to the future and how to expand my Daemonhunters. Here is the list I came up with (using basically every model I have) involving a gunline of a shooty Inquisitor & GK Hero, Stormtrooper squad with Plasmas, Inducted Las/Plas Platoon and 2 Assault Cannon Dreads, with a mobile component of Plasma-armed Stormies in a Rhino, Inducted Armoured Fist, Inducted Rough Riders and a Grey Knight teleport squad. This army is designed to expand on the 750 point tournament army I'm building (GK Hero, 2x8-man Stormie Squads with Plasma, Shooty Inquisitor & Retinue, 1x5-man GK Squad with 2 Psy & GK Dread). Please let me know what you think!

Not a lot of daemonhunter players around here, I guess...

I haven't been spending much time in the army lists forums. Right off the top, though...

The pseudo- Kyoto-pattern =][= thing you've got going used to rock (I always used a plasma cannon in there), but in V4, its just way too easy to single it out for "special attention." this is a Very Bad Thing.

Dreads are cool, and if you're going to take them, at least 2 are definitely the way to go. Unfortunately, the AV12 is the strongest armor in your army, and they're just going to die as any enemy AT weaponry will get pointed in their direction.

Stormtroopers also simply need Rhinos in order to be effective. Without them, they can't get into range to bring their weaponry to bear.

A lot of what I'm going to suggest depends heavily on whether you are set on keeping the rough riders in your list. While nifty, they don't really add a whole lot, especially since Grey Knights are among the best HTH combatants in the game.

The one thing that I will keep are your two dreads, as I'm going to assume that you really want to use them. Anyways, here's what I'd suggest:

Grey Knight Grand Master /w psycannons, sacred incense, holocaust, 4 Grey Knight Terminators /w psycannon
Ordo Malleus Inquisitor Lord /w psycannon, 3 Acolytes /w Power Armor, 2 mystics, 2 sages, 3 HB Warriors
6 stormtroopers /w 2 plasma guns, rhino, extra armor, smoke, searchlight
6 stormtroopers /w 2 plasma guns, rhino, extra armor, smoke, searchlight
Junior Officer /w 4 plasma guns
2 Infantry squads /w vet. sgt, lascannon, plasma gun
2 dreads /w AC, extra armor
