Gentlemanloser Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 As this isn't a Dual Detachment, you can't have 2 Vindicare Assassins. Also, you can't ally GK to GK. I think you need to rewrite your list a little. (If this is supposed to be two GK detachments, you only have three troops, not the required 4) Plus, you can't take a single Accolyte...

Deamon Wolf Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I have Played nids many times with drago wings and crow wings never lost on kill points generally tabled my opponents grey knights are brilliant anti nid army DK is a must as is the banner cc is your best Option generally but the yumagal stealers need taking out quickly dragio is good vs the swarm lord but don't bother with the vindicar his 4d6 terbo pen round only works on verichals it's a 2+ hit 4+ for 2 wounds on monsters and characters if u want an Assasin for nids the the calladus with her nural shredder and Deep strike attacks on low level/ low ld units, why is your mate not taking the doom that is the scaryst thing in his army especially if he swaps the psykic power that dose d3 wounds to the doom???

Reclusiarch Darius Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Nids are one of our easiest matchups. Write whatever list you want, you'll stomp him with ease. He has nothing that worries our Terminators (Carnifex bio-plasma is unique to it, and you can tear through a Carnifex brood with a DK pretty easily for less points), and all those MC's die very easily to our force weapons. Dragio will kill Swarmlord fairly easily, S10 does that. His Gargoyles you can completely ignore, wipe out the tiny Warrior broods and Hormagaunts, he will then have zero scoring left. If its 'Purge', you've won at deployment usually (he has to table you to win).
