I'd say scrap em, reduce your term squad
put their points into a stormraven or land raider and put strern with some purifiers inside or just take a knight paladin if you want to be cheesy.

Not a fan of razorbacks ether - take a rhino and another marine - I think it's better.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524848.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524848.page GMT Re:[1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament
I don't like Interceptor squads anymore, not since the nerf to psycannons but thats more personal taste.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524881.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524881.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament
If you run a Nemesis Strike Force - you only need one troop.

Why Stern and not a librarian level 3 for invisibility?

I agree though. Storm Raven is needed. Razorbacks are too flimsy to dump the points into. If you are running a Storm Raven. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524907.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524907.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament
A StormRaven, not getting too low on model count?

Last few test runs, the strikes just dropped and flamed something easy to kill while the Razor stayed back on an objective and shot at armor.

Not overly attached though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524967.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7524967.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament

Stern because I have an attachment to him. That's my flavor. And I love Guaranteed Sanctuary and being great in combat.

I've found reducing model count is the best way to play GK lol. If you've got over 15 modles something is wrong.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7525019.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7525019.page GMT Re:[1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7525073.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7525073.page GMT Re:[1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament

I'd move the hammers off your justicars and into the squad, that way they don't get called out in challenges and instagibbed by force swords.

Going with the purifiers...I basically lose a lascannon and deepstrike shananigan for much more anti infantry killing power.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7526080.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7526080.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament
My buddy is coming with a list that's a hard counter for me.

Tigurius with Grav Cents in a SW Pod and 4 TWolves with an Iron Priest

FIlled in with Grey Hunters Rhino, Blood Claws Razor, Tacticals and whatever else that is less important.

Any tips on killing Invisible Cents? Before they lay waste to my Termies, Knight, and DK?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538200.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538200.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament

You must fly to beat that list. A decked out storm raven. With something ready to drop on them when they lose invis. Invis will fail at least once.

Basically, present a double Threat with DreadKnight and Errant...one dies and one locks up combat.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538364.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538364.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538375.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538375.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament DK on them. Deep Strike everything that can Deep Strike and let him go first. Keep the Purifiers close to your Errant. Let him go first if you get a choice. It'll force him to deploy the cents near your Errant so you don't need to sacrifice a unit to get into melee with them (don't forget the FAQ for IKs makes move through cover better for them).

Then Deep Strike in their backfield to crush the little rest of his army with the DK and Termies.

Also, if the IK locks the centstar in combat, then you can use Cleansing Flame with the Purifiers from outside of combat to hit the Centstar.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538377.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7538377.page GMT Re:[1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament
First and second rounds I was facing some easy matchups.

Hodgepodge Tyranids...fantastic matchup for grey knights but literally too many units for my few units to kill. Objective game, we tied objectives and I won by first blood.
Sidenote: Stern having a built in Stubborn bubble is fantastic for Shadow.

Second game, Dark Angels...once again, easy matchup for Grey Knights, just swept through bikes and power armor, Knight handled the Termies.

Third game
Weirdest game of my life.

Faced Grey Knights and Red Scorpions?

His list was 5 GKT, 5 Tacticals, 10 Purifiers in a Rhino, a DreadKnight, and a unit composed of Sevrin Loth, Super GK Libby, Draigo, and 5 Grav Centurions

It was purge and his list had a total of 10 KP and mine had 7.

I got first turn-HUGE. Then during deployment we basically, we stayed in the corners of the board (via Vanguard) I was able to pop his Rhino and kill a combat squad of purifiers in turn 1...2 KP and First Blood. Basically my first turn. He rolls up psychic powers and gets Invisibility and prescience up from the Grav Cents in the back corner...I deny Gate-HUGE

Second Turn, I kill a few more marines with my Dreadknight and Errant...GKTs move around slighty (They get Sanctuary off)...spreading out to charge anything that tries to come close...dreadknight or cents. He gets Invisibility and Gate off and jumps to kill the errant...thanks to the ion shield...only 2 hull points lost.

I stubber the cents and melta a few more marines (only thing i can see is fearless purifiers...so they're fine)...GKTs (Stern himself) takes a wound off the dreadknight in shooting, too far to charge Knight charges the cents...does nothing at initiative...draigo and hammer libby dont even glance...got a triple stomp off...only one cent takes a wound. He manages to gate out of combat, his termies dreadknight and grav cents all shoot at the Errant (1 HP left)

I stubber the cents, melta some marines and charge again, attacks do nothing (Invisibility) and his attacks do nothing back, stomp places over the Libby, a full wound cent and Draigo...rolls a 6 and they're removed-HUGE...I win combat by 7, he rolls a 4 on LD and runs 9 inches and runs off the board. He wants retaliation and shoots everything at the Errant...it manages to survive. He charges in with the Dreadknight and they finish each other off.

GAME OVER...I have killed 7 KP and he needs to table me to win I have a full squad of Termies with Stern, 10 Interceptors and 5 Purifiers in a Rhino vs his handfull of marines and 5 termies.

He only killed the Dreadknight (I forget when) and the Errant]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7558261.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7558261.page GMT [1650] - Grey Knights - Highlander Tournament http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7558558.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/631986/7558558.page GMT
