<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Primaris Grey Knights"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/16.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Primaris Grey Knights GK Primaris is that Cawl didn't have a sample of their gene seed. Well.... 400 years have passed since the Primaris debuted. Unless there is some reason GK have to distrust Cawl or RG, I would think they'd be okay with Primaris in their ranks.

Game wise, GK have a REALLY limited selection. If GW ever did a redo of their codex (and let's admit it, it needs it) I'd like to see Primaris added. The problem is, how do you make them feel like Grey Knights? Simply adding Brotherhood of Psychers to every normal Primaris unit seems like a bit of a cop out. I'd say things like the Primaris Librarian and the vehicles could be used as-is. When it comes to troops, I think they need to be distinctly GK. Since GW likes to be financially conservative, that means GK primaris infantry would need to be based on an existing kit.

With that in mind, could there be enough space on a single sprue to get 10 GK shoulder pads, 5 force swords, and 5 of some kind of stormbolter parallel? Say, take the Intercessor kit, add this upgrade sprue, then give them some special rules?


New Unit: Primaris Strikers (Intercessor Stat line with brotherhood of psychers) Armed with Force Swords, and assault 3, 24 inch rifles. Would 24 points per guy sound about right? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9971657.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9971657.page GMT Primaris Grey Knights
GK primaris models will probably come out next year with force weapons and storm boltrifles and oodles of purity seals and knight helmets then only be a few points more than strike squads.

Though I don't know if gravis armour with replace terminator armour, hope not only cause I'd love to see a primaris terminator.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9972047.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9972047.page GMT Primaris Grey Knights irl reason we didn't get Primaris GKs was because their infantry was so unique and different from the classic SM stuff that they wanted to do something different for them since thematically Primaris GK Intercessors don't make sense.

Anyway I recall a couple of days ago seeing some fan art of a GK marine with a storm-bolter like plasma gun and made me realize how damn helpful such unit would be in a GK list. I think a Primaris Striker squad with such a weapon instead of a stormbolter would be a great fit and fill a huge weakness of GK lists. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9972230.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9972230.page GMT Primaris Grey Knights

2-wound guys with a plasma storm bolter and a force sword? Heck yeah that could be useful.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9973032.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/756689/9973032.page GMT Primaris Grey Knights
