View Full Version : Grey Knight Paladins as troops?
Cautiously Pessimistic

Alright according to the newest codex it looks like you can take grey knight paladins as troops choices so long as you take kaldor draigo as an HQ choice. what's more interesting is that these paladins have a minimum squad size of 1. With each paladin having their own aoe damage spell would it be worth it to fill out all remaining troops choices with solo paladins?
Example:
-Kaldor Draigo
-5 paladins with various doodads x2
-4 solo paladins
-ven-dread w' twin auto cannon psybolt ammo
good idea? or bad idea?

Bad idea. Why? They'll not survive very long. One lascannon/melta/krak missile shot and they're gone. I personally don't rate Paladins that highly due to their cost (which starts high and gets higher) anyway: I'd prefer more squads of normal Terminators.

ive been having fun playing with draigo, a bunch of paladins, and a storm raven, but they really dont get the job done too well if your opponent has a lot of heavy support. they chew through troops like theres no tomorrow, but cant take shots from meltas or cannons too well. and being at 55 pts a piece youre quite limited to what your army can have.
so can be fun, but shouldnt be too much of a focal point if you really plan on winning.
