-Henchmen with power armor seem like a waste. And very expensive, instead of buy power armor buy Crusaders.

-If your going to go all out and protect your captain, why don't you give him something like a relic blade so he can kill people effectively.

-Plasma pistol on PF Sergent seems like a bad idea, last think you want to do is accidentally kill your expensive Sergent.

-Sternguard Sergent should not have metlabombs and PF, both are effective against vehicles, choose one or the other, having both is a waste.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501903/5197069.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501903/5197069.page GMT Grey Knight Henchmen with space marine allies.

He is not only mandatory, he is really really good.

If you want to take the BRB spells (like Divination), then just take inquisitors. They are far cheaper and better.

The only reason to take a GK librarian is if you want the GK spells. There is really only one unit that strongly benefits from the GK spells: Paladins

Paladins love stealth for 3+ cover
Quicksilver lets the paladins take more swords for 4++ INV saves in combat, and you still hit first
Might of titan is more damage
Sanctuary lets your deathstar charge more, and defend objective from contesting assaults.


Replace this guy with an Inquisitor with Terminator Armor, Psycannon and LV1 divination.
Relentless psycannon, and a re-roll to hit for an entire squad. Only 110 points.

Henchmen are only BS 3. You really want to max out the Melta or Plasma guns in a unit. I would always take 3 of them in a unit.

I would either go all bolters or all storm bolters, there is no real reason to mix them.


Inquisitorial Henchmen
3 henchmen with flamers
1 Henchman with CC weapon, laspistol
2 Death Cult Assassins
1 Banisher
Chimera with heavy flamer
161pts

Why take a banisher? there is no reason unless you are making a list specifically to kill daemons.

In 6th edition, you do not want to shoot before you assault a unit. You will probably kill models that will put you our of assault range.

Assault henchmen are great, but they really only work as a Deathstar in an assault vehicle. They are not durable enough to survivie a turn of shooting out in the open (even with crusaders in the unit as well).

Inquisitorial henchmen
4 henchmen with power armour, boltguns
1 henchman with plasma gun
1 Servitor with plasma cannon
1 servitor
104pts

Why take henchmen with Powerarmor, when you could just take 3x times the henchmen with out armor. You should be sitting in cover anyways, so armor is not needed.

Also, if you are putting an Inquisitor here to deal with mindlock, then you will want 3x PC servitors. They are so cheap, and if you are sitting back, then they are the gun you want.

Coteaz is really good in the middle of the board with a more agressive henchmen unit. Maybe you want a cheap inquisitor with just a Hellrifle and divination to sit with these guys.



Overall, you need to focus your henchmen units a bit more. Give them a specific role on the battlefield.

Examples-
Melta henchmen: Cheap unit that kills something important, and probably dies. Keep them cheap.

Plasma GUN henchmen: Move into the middle of the board. Take objectives, deal some damage every turn. You may want a larger more durable unit.

Plasma CANNON henchmen: Sit back, blast away, hold the ADL and quad gun.

Assault henchmen: Deathstar in an assault vehicle. Throw them at the enemy and kill stuff.
