Captain Antargo Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I wonder how an opponent feels when they go up against a Grey knight army, what do you think?

Aothaine Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I suppose it depends on the opponent. If we are talking about "The Spider" from Tabletop Tactics? I'm sweating and nervous. If it is Jerry from my LFGS, I try to tone down my army a bit to make it a fun and competitive game.

Zephaniah Adriyen Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I'm not a GK player, but I've occasionally played against them, so maybe I can give a bit of insight. I played a Chaos vs. Grey Knights all-infantry using Zone Mortalis terrain a bit ago, and I lost. I lost even with some special rules and unique stuff going on we were doing just for that game. I had just started to bring Daemon units, and I focused down Kaldor Draigo. He played the objective and won by a massive amount.

MegaVolt87 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I miss the dread and excitement of facing down 5th ed GK. Back in the day at the old LGS, there were three WAAC GK players with 11/10 paint job armies + conversions, they were basically the pillar men from JoJo, THE POWER.

Wouldn't that be Custodes players, though?

techsoldaten Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 I get a sense of dread playing against them as Chaos. There's 2 people at my FLGS who play Grey Knights regularly. Sometimes I flatten them, other times, it's a grind. Some objectives are just hard to score against GKs. Overwhelming Firepower always comes the turn after I needed it, Psychological Warfare never happens because of denials, there's nothing there for Big Game Hunter, etc. Low model count becomes a strength when half your army has nothing to shoot. And try clearing Terminators off an objective when you need it.

Ichar Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 As a sisters player... feel like an even match... :) Not for long. What, 3 weeks and the Sisters will get a new Codex and models? Given how GW likes to sell models by making the latest and greatest very, very powerful / good, then SoB will be in good shape shortly. Don’t get me wrong, I am hoping that they will be super good. One of my best friends plays SOB, and he is as faithful to them as they are to the Emperor. I also have hope that if the SoB are good, maybe all of the Ordo troops will see improvements in short order, especially my beloved Grey Knights Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359698-i-wonder-what-it-is-like-for-an-opponent/#findComment-5422148 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevak Dal Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I imagine it's like going up against somebody who runs around in Call of Duty 2019 and doesn't camp in a building like a son of Dorn.
