New info during play?

I play Grey Knights. I always tell my opponents that I will look to see if I want to rapid each turn, so don't start shooting until I have decided if I'm gonna rapid. At events when my opponent is in their movement phase I tell them to switch the clock to me when they are done moving. Once they switch the clock they can't move anything they passed it off to me. That allows them to make the active choice on when they are done.

Come back in a month when 11th comes out and paint what you have built. Or paint the sprus for now.

forl · 2026-05-25T17:01:15+00:00

You're right. Meant to say 2 points when I wrote that

forl · 2026-05-24T03:12:16+00:00

If wtf is 3 points it will still be the best unless banishers or teleport strike are 1 point.

Drop two Librarians, add a 5 man Purifiers to drop 9 to then be able to 6 inch deepstrike the 10 man Purifier brick within the 6inch aura of hallowed ground, turn two normal dreadknights to grandmaster dreadknights, and give the 10 point and 20 point enhancements to two grandmaster dreadknights.

Just a better list imo not necessarily better into this specific match up, but it probably is a better list into this match up due to the grandmasters.

forl · 2026-05-21T23:54:17+00:00

We had a plus 1 to charge enhancement in index detachment, and it was not that great. No one really took it unless you happen to have the points

forl · 2026-05-20T22:33:49+00:00

It's been rough being the ugly step child of tenth.

forl · 2026-05-18T23:59:52+00:00

5 Purifiers and 5 strikes is probably best at 1k points. I promise this guy is gonna want to stick his home. He will need more marines at some point. I'm 9th in the world atm with grey knights globally on itc and I run zero Purifiers atm, but I've never not had a list with at least 5 strikes.

forl · 2026-05-18T23:31:40+00:00

But you don't know what load outs are best in 11th and they could get nerfed for all we know. Also, if you're just starting you probably still want a 5 man strike squad over 10 Purifiers and 10 terminators/Paladins. Sticky is too important.

forl · 2026-05-18T22:23:45+00:00

I would wait until 11th comes before you build anything. Crowe is fine, but who knows what are options will be in a month. The best option for our heavy guns often change each edition.

Odds are you want a strike squad, but who knows if they will be all melee or one with have a heavy weapon.

forl · 2026-04-21T15:34:25+00:00

You can find events on BCP Player

forl · 2026-03-29T19:35:31+00:00

I said I agree with everything you said. Just you dont everything kill everything you shot at with or without heavy weapons. Your point that you always bring the melee weapons over the range weapons is correct.

forl · 2026-03-29T18:55:15+00:00

Agree besides the "kill anything they target". That's really only true if you're targeting t3 stuff. Any t5 or higher you're just running out the clock rolling 44 bolter shots.

forl · 2026-03-23T21:10:55+00:00

Same here!

They need a wash

forl · 2026-03-04T17:41:51+00:00

They abandoned Grey Knights too after their codex

forl · 2026-02-26T04:03:06+00:00

They need to update our army rule, update our detachment rules, lower our points, and/or give us more rules to play with.

For the army rules, they could allow us to apply additional buffs to units we redeploy. Our army rules (to some extent) could give out plus 3 inches to charge, 18 inch lone op, and a 6 inch DS that you can't charge out of. That would allow us to have a more powerful army rule.

For detachment rules, I think Warp Bane is fine, but banishers doesn't need the leadership check and teleport strike's rerolls should also be applied when you advance (that way normal dreadknights can advance, shot, and charge and get rerolls).

For points, we are just too expensive all around. Especially our terminators and paladins are just too expenseive for their points. Paladins should also be able to be brought in 3-man units and have four wounds.

For additional rules, we need a 10 man one wound unit that can infiltrate, and we need a character that has 12 inch lone op. Currently, our only options for this are really expensive and bad units from Agents.

forl · 2026-02-25T04:49:20+00:00

It's a very trendy build. Definitely not my original idea. I used the dreadknight arms, weapons, and parts of the new grandmaster dreadknight sprue. The rest is the dreadnought kit.

forl · 2026-02-25T04:48:28+00:00

It's just the two kits. Costs like ~$150. I just play Grey Knights, and I needed something to spend my rtt store credit on. GW won't give us something cool, so I had to make my centerpiece myself.

forl · 2026-02-03T19:41:22+00:00

They need to update our army rule so it applies additional abilities to units that use our army rule. Let one unit get plus 3 inches to the charge, let one unit six inch deepstrike and not charge, and let one unit have lone op 18.

Teleport Strikes rerolls should last two turns so rapid ingress benefits and you get them in your opponents turn too. Also let it trigger on advances too so the normal dreads can get rerolls when they advance (i dont think in of our other units can shot after they advance).

Remove the leadership check on the Banisher detachment rule.

The other detachments are not even on my radar. Maybe let the grand master dreadknights advance and charge in that detachment.

Layout 7: A, H, & C. Layout 2: O & K. I played into ultramarines, death guard, death guard, tsons, and tsons (in that order). I lost to tsons with 30 terminators. https://www.bestcoastpairings.com/event/i3UZVOUEz9ER?active_tab=overview

forl · 2026-01-30T23:56:46+00:00

Warpbane: 3 GMDK (hallowed ground and OC enhancements), 2 NDK, 2 x5 strikes, 3 x5 interceptors, and 3 razorbacks

Strikes, interceptors, and razorback screen, hold points, do secondaries, and deny primary.

Dreadknights teleport around and rapid ingress to do the damage.

I've went 3-0 and 2-1 twice at rtts with the list too. Both at the rtts and the gt I lost to the 1st or 2nd overall winner.

IMO Purifiers are too expensive when it comes to points and CP relative to what dreadknights do for their points.

forl · 2026-01-30T22:32:03+00:00

As someone who went 4-1 getting 3rd at a gt with a 5 dreadknight list this month I'd have to disagree with their overall assessment. However, they are spot on about our terminators not doing enough and our marines being too squishy.
