Bought the new Grey Knight Codex on Thursday and have been looking over it with an eye to using it to make a pre-Heresy Thousand Sons army. Thought I'd post an army list I've written with it here for feedback:

What do you guys think?

i have been lookignat the gray kngihts my self, although more at the inquisator side of things they are still good. Purifiers are the best unit in the codex really i think. You take a unti of 10 with 4 psylancers or other such wepaons and go to town, also Clensing flame gives them massive power in combat. Strike squads jsut arn't that great compared with the termaintors. Alos Paladins are in my opion way to expensive for any game of 2000 or under. Maybe a unit of 4 might work but 8 is to much.

Maybe, but I'm not going for a 'let maximise this to crush my opponants as brutaly as possible' list. I prefer theme where possible, and having 8 paladins to act as a bodyguard to the Librarian just seems 'right' to me.

true as we have the rule of 9 to follow here as well
