1500 - 1999 (+1).

Pretty much two is always better there? Are Interceptors a poor substitute for the 2nd Dreadknight?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5334490.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5334490.page GMT Re:Is a single Dreadknight a good idea.

They are large, high impact models. If you only have one of the above, it will draw a lot of fire from the enemy and die rather fast.


With multiples of the above you gain target saturation. It basically makes you more durable and gives you redundancy.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5334838.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5334838.page GMT Is a single Dreadknight a good idea.

Interceptor would not play the same role, since your opponent would not use the same weapons to target them. A CC dread would be a better option.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5336095.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5336095.page GMT Is a single Dreadknight a good idea.

I'd definitely want two then. As Seb said, interceptors get shot at by different things, so don't distract from the dreadknight. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5336530.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/510621/5336530.page GMT Is a single Dreadknight a good idea.

Your question is more subtle than I think you intended.

The short answer is yes, two is always better, unless of course you're playing at low point ranges (which you're not).

The long answer I fear I cannot say. Is a single DK a good idea? It really depends on what its role is within your list as a whole. I think 1 is a decent idea. It will get shot at, no doubt, but it can really wreak havoc if it gets a chance to. You just have to make the shunt count and not charge headlong into things you know you'll wipe out in one turn.
