I finally was able to play a game this past weekend and see the new Grey Knights in action. Sometimes because of all their amazing close combat abilities some of us might forget they are still Space Marines for practical purposes and can also shoot very well up to 24". Psybolts add +1S to weapons that fire ammunition (e.g., bolters, assault cannons, etc.). So basically a stormbolter is better than a Fire Warrior's pulse rifle. Overall Grey Knights are stronger now but definitely not over the top. I want to play a pure Grey Knight list with the addition of one Vindicare assassin. Here is a sample list I came up with yesterday... I'm just kicking around some ideas now:
Lord Kaldor Draigos
3x Paladin: 3x pair of Nemesis falchions, 3x master crafted, psybolt ammo
Librarian: Warding Stave, Might of Titan, Warp Rift, Quick Silver, psybolt ammo
Vindicare assassin
Purifier Squad 6x): 2x psycannon, 4x Nemesis force halberd, psybolt ammo - razorback: psybolt ammo, dozer blades
Purifier Squad 6x): 2x psycannon, 4x Nemesis force halberd, psybolt ammo - razorback: psybolt ammo, dozer blades
Strike Squad (10x): 2x psycannon, 4x pair of Nemesis falchions, psybolt ammo - rhino: dozer blades
Strike Squad (10x): 2x psycannon, 4x pair of Nemesis falchions, psybolt ammo - rhino: dozer blades
So like I said I've got plenty of midrange firepower with the assassin to deal with stuff like landraiders.
