Default horde grey knights (1500)

some of the points may be slightly off as i have not got the codex on me at the moment, it is with a friend. please corret me where i go wrong.

brother capt. - 61

10 grey knights, justicar has meltabombs, - 280

10 grey knights justicar has meltabombs, - 280

10 grey knights justicar has meltabombs, - 280

10 grey knights justicar has meltabombs, - 280

10 grey knights justicar has meltabombs, - 280

totals to 1461, what would you do with the remaning points?

the idea is to simply swamp my opponents in PAGK's, spend 2 turns shooting anything that i can hurt and then go for the big charge with everything, blocking as much line of sight as possable. i knwo that anti armor will be a problem, it always will be for grey kingits, and if i come up aganst mec eldar then i will just have to spread out till there is no where left for my opponent to go. wont be the easyest armie to play, but i thinkt aht having 50 grey knights looking at you in only 1500 points will be plenty intimmidating for most people

I agree that having that many GK's on the Board will be impressive, and put shivers up some General's Spines when facing them. But, with so many Mech lists around these days you're not doing yourself any favours really.
At 1.5K 8 - Men Squads are plenty big enough, and you'll save 250 pts right there, so with the 39 spare points you have that's nearly enough for 2 Hellfire Dreads, so just drop a couple of M/bombs and you're sweet.
All that aside, just having GK's in your list will just get boring for you pretty quick (imo).
Like all lists though...give it a go to see how you like it...it might work a treat.

Mechanized armies laugh at you and are common.

Very deadly against orks and other pure-infantry armies, but those aren't the ones to beat.

drop 3-2 GK in each unit use those pts and the remain pts to add in a few TL-las dread and a deamon hammer to your bor-cap .... also foot logging gk is a beautiful site but they will drop like fly , sweap some GK to TAGK

I wouldn't bother with a Daemonhammer for the Brother Captain, but I agree with what jhon and the others say about adding in some Dreadnaughts. If you add anything to the Brother Captain, make it a Psycannon.

Default Re: horde grey knights (1500)

ok, so i am looking at something like this now,

brother capt - 61

5 x 8 PAGK with melta bombs on the justicar - 230 per squad
total for all 5 is 1150

2 x dreadnought, las cannon, missile lancher - 140 per dred,
280 for both
(i think that this is right, like i said, friend has the codex and i dont use it very much anyway.)

this will have a little more anti tank punch then the last list, is this better??

All you need to do now is add Extra Armour on the Dreads to take you to 1501pts

While you lose a total of 10 Grey Knights, you more than make up for it by having that (more) reliable anti-tank capability.
