That being said, what do you all like?

Give him rad, psychotroke, and blind grenades and a weapon of your choice. I'm partial to Falchions, but that comes down to personal preference.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724370.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724370.page GMT Re:Best set-up for a grey knight Grand Master?
In my army (When i'm not using draigo...) he's going to be there more for a force multiplier with a squad and grand strategy carrier than direct combat, and given that just the two grenades puts him at 205 points, I would say call it there. Add in a psycannon and falchions and you start getting to the point where you might as well just go use draigo and get +1 WS +1S +1T +1W +1A and mastery 2.

You may also want to consider using a librarian with quicksilver and might of titan to buff your terminators instead of a tricked out GKGM, though the GKGM can give you counter-attack I suppose...hm...Don't really think you can go wrong either way though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724621.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724621.page GMT Re:Best set-up for a grey knight Grand Master? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724670.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724670.page GMT Best set-up for a grey knight Grand Master? DS list with his psychic communion.

However the psycannon on him is RIDICULOUSLY expensive, even with his BS6, I wouldnt pay that much for one single Psycannon. Nor would I pay for the Psybolt ammo since it's 5 points for only the one model. however the incinerator is not such a bad idea. It's so dirt cheap, and even though you'll be footslogging/DSing most ways if you are gonna take a GM, for that price having a S6 template isnt so bad to thin the enemy ranks.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724851.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724851.page GMT Best set-up for a grey knight Grand Master?

Lest you be shooting ANOTHER shot, instead of "rerolling" to hit the ones that missed.

If you mastercraft your psycannon (bringing it to a whapping 50 points) and have bs 6, its just generally accepted your not going to be missing enough to worry about it. Bs5 is good enough, so maybe a Bro-C with psycannon for smaller games couuld be good?

That doesn't make any sense my friend ^^. Do you mean a MC BS6 Psycannon?

As the others said above 45+ points is ways to expensive on a dude who primarily wants to get into CC. You'll get maybe 1 or 2 rounds of shooting off and for the points you could get 4 psycannons for S-squads or Purifiers instead (8 BS4 Assault/16 H shots > 4 BS6 shots). BS6 isn't a huge increase over BS5 anyways, a 6+ re-roll is quite crappy.
You're better off giving the GM some equipment which allows him and his squad to dominate absolutely everything in CC.
Give him an Incinerator (a steal for 5 pts. and a must have IMO, it's not like you're giving up an extra attack for 2 CCW or something) for some much needed punch against hordes, Psycho-, blind- and Rad grenades and you'll rule most enemies for 40 pts. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724948.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364269/2724948.page GMT
