    Codex first, plan list, buy later.

    This week I am good-naturedly shaking my fist at: Baragash. For being unreasonably reasonable.

    Cheaphammer 40p: 2000 points of Marines as cheap as possible.
    It'll be alright on the Knight - a slow refreshing of my original Grey Knight army.

    It depends what you want to build. Get the codex and decide first. I started with several boxes of strike squad for my purifiers list.

    Not including the Codex, I would go with an HQ (either Castellan Crowe or a Librarian) and three of the Grey Knights 5-man kits. With Crowe as the HQ then two of the kits would be Purifier Squads and one a Purgation Squad. With the Librarian as the HQ two of the kits would br Strike Squads and one a Purgation Squad. If you can really "work it" then an HQ, two 5-man kits, and a Dreadknight but that's closer to $150 than $130, heh heh

    GKs have a certain amount of luxury in being able to take whatever you like the look of and it being good (provided of course you use it right).
