ashc Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) Hi all, So my son is really looking in to Grey Knights - he's 9 and he has Stormcast Eternals in AoS so jumping to more knights in shining armour for 40k is right up his alley. He has already been gifted 10 old metal GKs in power armour with halberds and 2 incinerators, but what do you recommend he looks at picking up next? cheers, Ash Edited October 24, 2017 by ashc Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340737-helping-a-new-gk-player-what-next/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adeptus Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Anything he thinks is cool is the short answer. At age 9 he doesn't need to be building cutting edge competitive lists, and having cool models that he likes will probably help keep his interest in the game strong. Where does he play mostly? If he's likely to need a strong list to compete against competitive sorts at the club who might see a newbie player as a good opportunity to improve their win/ loss ratio then maybe include some grandmaster dreadknights, a Stormraven and some strike squads in razorbacks. the jeske 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340737-helping-a-new-gk-player-what-next/#findComment-4916124 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashc Posted October 24, 2017 Author Share Posted October 24, 2017 It's for playing against me and my death guard, so I've got no plans to be brutal! - I have a spare razorback he could have, suggested load out? He's keen on the dreadknight too so that's pretty good so far!

the jeske Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 That is good the dreadknight GM is an auto include in GK armies. Some paladins aka terminators models. 1-2 razorbacks for his power armored GK. a NDK GM and he is set to play. Everything else probably won't enhance his xp at 9 years, and there is a good chance it will dimish it.

swordofmandulis Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Well if you are bringing Death Guard then he really needs to be bringing the pimp of all daemon bashing pimps Kaldor Draigo, not only is he a beast but he will certainly want to be putting the beats down on old Morty if you decide to get him.

Gentlemanloser Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Twin AC are the go to load out for a razorback. Can get some milage out of twin LC as well. If you don't glue the turret in, seal between the two. :) Seconding Draigo, i love his mini. I'm a fan of helmets over bare heads.

ashc Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 Thanks for the replies everyone. He has a dreadknight arriving in the post today, any tips on armament? I'm guessing it's worth taking it as a gmndk?

Corvus Fortis Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 GMNDK only. Psilencer, psycannon, sword - you cannot go wrong with it.
