Grey Knights Rumour Roundup

[daboarder]

DAboarder: You mean GK are somewhat OP now? (or do i just misunderstand your post)

Kinda yeah, ObjeSec Palladins are disgusting. they are one of the to beat lists in Australian tournaments at the moment. I haven't been in the scene myself since 7th dropped, but I am friends with most of the top players in NSW.

essentially it boils down to the fact that most deathstars require multiple powers to be cast, the palladins only need 1

Just so I know what's what...they're going to be removing all Inquisition forces, such as Assassins and henchmen warbands?

Wonder if this will lead to a Codex: Inquisition, seems like it would fit well into GWs new way of operating. Book, a few models (like Inquisitor Valeria god damnit) then GK and SoB get their own books without being padded with Inquisitorial elements but you can take them using unbound/allies if you want.

were talking deathstar here, so its basically the army built around them as opposed to them being used as support

Yog, I hope they don't cut Valeria...I'm sort of expecting them too though. Inquisitorial miniature line really needs plastics though, so if they get a hardback codex i'd hope for some decent plastic characters at least.

White Dwarf #29 cover - Grey Knights Confirmed

The lack of new models on the cover makes it look like the no new units thing is true. Sucks for GK players. Hopefully that means they'll get something new the week after the codex.

EDIT : How long has the Armies section on the Games-workshop.com website had the "Inquisition" Tab? Is that new or it has been there for a while? I can't remember... If it's new that might lead credence to there being hardback book for them..

They have most of what everyone else has. Big mech/suit check, flying gunship check, models for most thing ( characters missing )

Not sure what else you can give them. Want a chariot?

Specialised Knightly orders? Some kind of unique tank ? Plastic characters? Mordrak and his Ghost knights could of made an interesting kit. Seems odd having a hardback codex release with nothing to support it. I dont think they've done that since 3rd ed IIRC. Stuff like that messes with my OCD. My army already has a chariot if you count the Command Barge, I quite like it.
