An Update - More GK Shnazzle

So, with the actual book in stores now, some truths have been put out.

A big one is the Dreadknight is S6, T6, 4W, 2+/5++. Doesn't work for nurgle daemon princes, doubt it'll work for you son. Back into the broken dreams box you go.

I prefer infantry anyway, always have. They're much cooler. Speaking of which, here's list MKII

10 Ghost Knights

What do we think? Insane scoring potential, some good long ranged fire (6 psycannons is 12 autocannons, with rending), as well as Meltacolytes coming towards you, which are just Meltavets MKII.

Oh yeah, and Mordrak. His unit is AWESOME. :D

    So Dreadknights ain't S7 T7 and 4++?
    Thank the Emperor.


    Oh wait, now they're not worth taking. Thanks, Matt.
    They ain't Meltacolytes btw, according to Fraser they're Cuntmen, in keeping with Meltacunts.


    Also, if you take 3 Purgation squads, and 3 Purifiers, thats just under 1000pts and 72 psycannon shots a turn. Assuming no one moves.

    Now, obviously thats no transports or anything, but...thats a lot of fire.
    :P

    Psycannons are range 24 now. So good, but not worth spamming, as they're now precision fire.

    Which, in my opinion, is good. Psycannon gunlines would have been such a boring army to play with and against, as they would have been good, but had almost no depth to them.

    Yeah, fair enough. Didn't know they were 24" now.
    When are you coming back to Ayrshire, btw? There's like two RP games stalled cause you're in Oz.

    :P
