deathstarray Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Hi all So if you had a choice between or lord Draigo or a dreadknight what would you choose? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308045-draigo-or-dreadknight/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
irwit Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Dreadknight. Cheaper, more mobile, arguably more resilient, awesome shooting. Draigos invun and gate make him more of a force multiplier so its harder to compare like for like.

Prot Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I'd say NDK too, but I'd disagree with the more survivable comment. Personally I've had my Draigo tank much more than an NDK could. Set it up right and there's really no comparison. However, shooting is huge. Movement is a biggy too. (Shunting is 'free', jumping is 'free' and there is no misshap). Shooting is an issue for most of my lists, removing Draigo removes the ultimate tank for me, but does not affect my shooting at all. Removing an NDK hurts me substantially in the form of Psycannons/Psilencers/Incinerator torrent,etc. Just my 2 cents.

jeffersonian000 Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I already take Draigo and 2 NDKs. If given the choice to take another, I'll add a Warden.

BetterOffShred Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 If you are building up a force and can only afford one, I'd suggest getting the NDK which will be an integral part of any/all of your lists. If you already have 2-4 of them and are asking if you should get NDK #5, or Draigo, probably go with Draigo :) -Brett Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308045-draigo-or-dreadknight/#findComment-4055083 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reclusiarch Darius Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I wouldn't be adding Draigo until larger games anyway. He functions better with Allies anyway, which you won't bring at 1250 or even 1500 normally. DK's are the best unit in our codex, closely followed by Terminators.

jeffersonian000 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I would add Draigo. He's perfect for your core army. SJ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308045-draigo-or-dreadknight/#findComment-4056212 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortysl Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Admittedly, I have very few games with Grey Knights under my belt, but I don't bother with Draigo until I'm playing Apocalypse. Even without him, I've been told by a number of my friends that my Grey Knights are 'bloody insane'. Depending on the number of Dreadknights that you already field, my vote would likely go toward adding another.

Lemon Legion Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I would definately go with a dreadknight, it is cheaper and with the points difference between draigo and your perfect knight you can upgrade your main troopas.

Gaz1858 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 NDK over Draigo if you had to choose. Or do what I do and take 3 NDKs and Draigo Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308045-draigo-or-dreadknight/#findComment-4056949 Share on other sites More sharing options...
