Grey Knights: My List and the Reasons Behind It
Well, now that I’ve decided, I’m going to be creating a Grey Knights Paladin army. Along with the reasons in my previous post, I really like the looks of the models, and the idea of such a small, elite force just laying waste to a battlefield brings joy to my heart. So, what exactly am I planning to include in my army list? My HQ will be Kaldor Draigo. Obvious, I know, as he is what makes the paladins troops, but still, he is worth mentioning as the powerhouse he is. Not only is he eternal warrior, but he is also the only grey knight to take a storm shield! So he is extremely surviveable. For my troops, I’m looking at making my paladin squads in increments of 315 points. They will look something like this: Paladin w/ Nemesis Force Sword Paladin w/ Daemonhammer Paladin w/ Nemesis Force Halberd Paladin w/ Nemesis Force Sword and Psycannon Paladin w/ Nemesis Force Halberd and Psycannon This squad is cheap (for paladins) and still has all the firepower and wound allocation capabilities of more expensive squads. It will also be striking at I6,4, and 1 throughout any assaults they find themselves in. I plan to use these squads as firebases and objective watchers, walking around and shooting stuff.
