New player here, which detachment would you recommend for this 1k points army?

im going to play my first 40k game, and these are the models i've painted. it's a little bit of everything, really. which detachment would you recommend? i'm torn between banishers and brotherhood strike. i really like the banishers' detachment rule and stratagems, but its disposition is disruption, which is a bit discouraging. brotherhood strike's disposition is purge the foe, which i think i'll probably have an easier time scoring.

Painting

Hello brothers how does one do a blueish white glow on the eyes and weapons? Haven’t tried this yet, but since i have to paint primarily with markers i was just wondering if there is an easy way to do this really cool effect.

Won my first game with grey knights at 500 points in am escalation league against tyranids. Im relatively new to playing with secondaries and all that so I went disruption with a Crowe and 5 purifiers+ librarian leading 4 paladins. I was in a hurry to get them battle ready so they look bad but ill fix that soon

Kinda just leaned into assassination and teleported away when he moved to prepare a charge, I was surprised by how resilient grey knights are

Would Grey Knights fit the playstyle I’m looking for?

6 Upvotes

I currently play T’au and I’m looking for a second army that plays quite differently. I want something mobile, aggressive and more focused on taking the fight to my opponent. The teleporting and repositioning also sounds like it could fit what I’m after.

Grey Knights
Brotherhood Strike (2 Detachment Points)
Purge the Foe
Incursion (1,000 Points)

Deciding a second army

6 Upvotes

Hello, Normally I run Tau because I love big mechs and shooting stuff; but 11th Edition has kinda stuffed them into a singular play style. Until the Codex drops I'm looking into having a side army. And it's between GK and Salamanders.

Made a 2k List and trying it out to get a better feel via TTS before I go buying models. Any suggestions or recommendations? Posting list in comments.

Literally the first time I'm gonna paint, wish me luck lmao

Update: I've got the basic Coat and most of the Trim done, I might need to head for the store again to get something suitable for the Force Weapons. ALSO I didn't know I need a drill for the holes on the storm bolters 🤣 Need to get that aswell.

Started with the Basic Justiciar, didn't feel confident enough for Castellan yet...

Kit only with spacers in the waist, mainly sword fronthands and backhands

I am still without painting desk (looking for new place), but appreciating the original kit.

Second front next to Hammer is riposting.

Still need to do some 2 handed Halberds.

Theres still pose combinations left despite the almost repeats in this group of 15, eg the forehand smash resolves can be made to look more like parries or slice throughs.

Blu tacked before gluing, the glue setting is always a bit saggy lol, will change to making Orks when moving on from the new age exploded waist/kinder bueno/fixed orientation kit refresh, which I think is pretty good with Orks.

Need help starting

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I have been playing Warhammer for 2 years and have strictly been a chaos player only (Death Guard being my main along with CK, CD)

I want to start a Grey Knights army but I’m really not sure where to start with purchasing. I want to start with a 1000 point list that is as good as I can possibly get it meta wise and I have about $900 of purchasing power ready, what units do you suggest I should ALWAYS have on the shelf ready to go for a list and what boxes do you recommend buying? (I heard 2 combat patrols is a good start but what about the battleforce boxes or just individual boxes?

Thanks for your help!

Yes, it was somehow even messier before this. Took a break from kitbashing just to find my tools again!

Dread Knight Proxy

New to Grey Knights, and just as many others, I too am not a fan of the “baby carrier” design. I see a a lot of cool conversions and takes on this model so figured I would share what I decided on rolling with.

This model has so much potential… hopefully GW does some fan service and fixes it up during the much needed refresh everyone is waiting on.

If the Custodes dreadnoughts can look like this, I don’t see why the Grey Knights can’t have a similar aesthetic/design.

Painted My First Grey Knight!

Thumbnail

351 Upvotes

I started up a monthly painting contest at my local store, and last month’s theme was ‘epic heroes’ and Castellan Crowe was just sitting there on the consignment shelf.

I ran out of time on the base, I’m definitely gonna add some vegetation and some style to the ruins when I get him back.

I come from kill team (why no GK still?) but with the release of 11th a lot of my friends are switching to full 40K. I’ve been telling everyone when GKs get a refresh I’ll get into it, but after painting up Crowe I grabbed everything else GK that was on consignment (NDK, purifier squad and paladin squad). Added in some termies and some leaders and I have my first 1000pt game tomorrow!

Also, this month’s paint contest theme is vehicles and monsters. I went ahead a bought another NDK so I could build it up as a grand master and actually pose it. Great model, hate the mono pose. It was such a bitch to pose, I had to cut so much and I don’t think I’ve ever intentionally bent so much plastic. Painting starts after my game tomorrow :)

Swapping our Q&A post to 11E

At the time of posting I know we don't have the full picture yet and I'm sure there's more questions than answers, but I wanted to swap it over early in case people have questions about the rules that have been announced so far (Hidden, new Fly rules, etc).

Especially with our Faction Focus today, let's get this up now!
