Grey Knights Rumour Roundup

Besides, am I the only one who hates their new codex layout? No more convenient army list in the back of the book is stupid IMO. Now I have to flip through multiple pages while trying to build an army and figure out what goes where. Maybe some folks like it, but I think it's absolutely horrible. Now just more wasted space to show mediocre photos of their miniatures. Frankly I preferred the artwork from previous editions.

I'm not a fan of the new layout. It seems a big step backward from the previous ones.

Am I the only the only considering fielding the Basic Land Raider just for the long range Anti-Tank that it brings?

Indeed. Though I think 7th overall is fine, the psychic phase is very poorly done and as you say people are getting tired of having toys they've been using taken away because GW is playing the petulant child due to the Chapterhouse loss. I haven't seen any new players since 7th dropped, but I don't know if that's the reason. Most of the folks who I know considered it before just didn't want to pay their prices anymore. I'm sure that's still a factor, but who knows going forward. I have not liked any of the 7th edition books really. Most of them are just bland. GW seems to want people to pay more money for supplemental codices and dataslates to get them some semblance of variety, but at twice the cost just to get what should have been in the base codex anyway? Color me unimpressed.

Same.

Oh, hate it a lot. I like the simple design of the past where everything was listed out simply under each header. Also when it was in the middle of the book and not the back so the thing would lay flat when you were writting up lists!

Oh, totally taking one as a Troops Trasport, OS metal barn!

I always loved how dedicated the Daemonhunters were with that concept

I keep trying to find a justification to give a unit, any unit, Nemesis Falchions because I love the look but I just can't do it. An extra attack is just not worth 4 pts especially when the +1S Halberd is only 2, to say nothing of how Hammerhand now makes taking even just the swords viable.

That way it is super situational. Thing is, Halberd affects no way any instant death threshold that GK can achieve.(hammerhand + halberd arent enough to ID toughness 4 unit and with hammerhand alone you can ID toughness 3).

Since GK seems to have to eliminate its enemies now in close combat, even more than in previous incarnation of the codex. I'd go for extra attacks, because of the possibility of getting +2Str and re-rolls to hit anyway (hammerhand and that divination power)

Just to rub salt into the wound, the assassins they stripped out have become really awesome now apparently. You just need to pay more (real world cash) to use them. I'd expect something similar when they bring our the =I= elements in a separate book. Yay...

Falchions are much better than Halberds, but cc upgrades really aren't worth it at all for the most part., except to throw a few hammers in here and there.
