    Default stupid psychic grey knights

    i recently used my necrons against a grey knight armue. after three turns of him smashing stuff with hammerhand i had lost. who else agrees that grey knight psychic powers are too many and too strong, making them far more overpowerd???

    psycic tests, and considering that his basic troops are MUCH more expensive than yours it really isnt a problem. also if your playing necrons you REALLY shouldnt be in CC with GK. you shoutld be shooting from a distance :P

    Grey Knights pay for what they get. Just how it is. Necrons should be blasting from a distance. Take better care when deploying and how close your allowing them to get to your lines.
    Keep in mind that just because you lose to an army doesn't mean it's "broken"
    If both you and your opponent are playing at the same points costs then the reasons are simple:
    Mission
    Deployment
    Simply out played
    better favour of the dice gods

    Learn from your game. If you take this lose to the Grey Knights and the only thing you got out of it was the thought that the GK are broken then thats the real only failure.
    Better luck next time.

    Odds are pretty good that if hammerhand made you lose, you were going to lose anyway.

    Necrons have plenty of tricks up their sleeve. Use them well and you can go toe to toe with GK easily.

    I agree with your conclusion but not your premises.

    GK ARE indeed broken, but not because of their psychic powers. They're broken because of their cost.

    They pay for wargear and special rules (not only psychic powers) at a huge discount. Yes, they still pay, but it is stupidly cheap.

    GK's can be beaten, you just gota adapt to your opponent's list, and how he is implementing it against you. If your big thing is hammerhand, and the other psyker powers, then your in melee or short enough range that you've done something wrong.

    Oh look, it's this thread again.

    GKs auto-win every game ever, so you guys should just save yourselves the anguish and quit.

    Or, you could just cry less and actually get better.

    I haven't lost to GK in the three games that I've played against them. 1 draw and 2 wins.
