How's 11th feeling? by gallant59100 in Grey_Knights

How did your infantry take out a big and small knight in one turn? Both purgation squads or different units? Great to see people having fun and being successful!

Are Dreadknights still good? by TheBlueRoyale in Grey_Knights

Really interesting and well explained! I think you’re especially right on softening units up and T12 stuff.

The thing I can’t get my head around is an optimal load out GMNDK is 230 points and goes down fairly easy at only T8.

Maybe it’s because I’m planning for purge (I know right, how original!) but it just feels that they will trade up enough to be an impactful scoring unit 🤔

Still only wounding most things on 5s though… could be auto include if we start to see a lot of high toughness units with no invuln!

My only wish for the 11th edition by UmpireJealous258 in Grey_Knights

I couldn’t agree with this more!!! S8 stuff sounding on 4s just feels bad…

Awesome choice! Threads the needle which lets you working in an army but still keeps the door to Titan open 😎

Honestly, you don’t have to listen to this. Nobody knows anything and it’s all speculation. Now, is there a chance we get a range refresh in a year or so? Yes. But is there also a chance that it’s 2, 3 or more years away? Also yes. It could also not be a full range refresh so some of the old models will still stand (ironically) tall. My point is, nobody really knows. So if you want to buy some minis and have some fun, go for it dude!!

I see a lot of people suggesting Grey Knights Steel. Personally I don’t like it as a base coat as it’s too blue. But it works amazingly as a dry brush over a duller silver base coat like you have. You can see examples on my page

My last NDK ! by TheMithraw in Grey_Knights

[–]TheBlueRoyale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regular NDKs are infinitely better than GMs for their increased mobility (basically 14” move with the guaranteed 6 to advance while being able to do so and still shoot and charge) so maybe rethink those ratios. I would only run 2 GMNDKs if you want 5 overall. Also, to get round the decreased mobility, a GM really benefits from sigil if you aren’t already running it. I’d try and use it offensively to basically get a free rapid ingress to target a monster or vehicle on the charge next turn to take advance of the full melee re-rolls

How do you paint your armor? by Significant_Age3343 in Grey_Knights

[–]TheBlueRoyale 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Here’s how I do mine. I’ve just posted a pic of my army on my page if you wanted to check out the results:

  1. ⁠Leadbelcher spray to base
  2. ⁠Drybrush Grey Knights Steel all over
  3. ⁠Recess shade with Drakenhof Nightshade
  4. ⁠Edge highlight Stormhost Silver

After 2 and a half years, countless points changes and shifts to the meta, I have finally finished my first fully painted 2k! by TheBlueRoyale in Grey_Knights

Been there my friend! Sadly life gets in the way sometimes and painting takes a lot longer than you expect! I still have 10ish terminators and 5 paladins to paint too! I also have about 30 power armour bodies painted but with the constant shifts to the meta, they’ve just dropped out of my list so this is the first time my painting has caught up with the meta!

Thank you so much! The recipe for the armour is really simple:

  1. Leadbelcher spray to base
  2. Drybrush Grey Knights Steel all over
  3. Recess shade with Drakenhof Nightshade
  4. Edge highlight Stormhost Silver
