Draigo's All-Stars


I'm putting together a list for a 1500 points (each) team tournament next weekend, and I came up with this. I don't know if I'll run it, but damn, it seems like a fun little exercise nevertheless...









Lord Kaldor Draigo 275 275



Librarian 150 175
Quicksilver

Might of Titan

Sanctuary

The Shrouding

The Summoning




Paladins x7 385 525
Apothecary

Psycannon x2

Brotherhood Banner
DH, halberds x4, NFS on Apothecary





Paladins x7 385 525
Apothecary

Psycannon x2

Brotherhood Banner

DH, halberds x4, NFS
on Apothecary

Total Cost: 1500 points on the nose.

Basic plan?
  1. Use Draigo to give counter-charge to (hopefully) both pally units
  2. Libby with one pally squad, Draigo with the other
  3. Keep units close so they can both suck up that Shrouding magic
  4. Pick things I want to die
  5. Move towards those things, and shoot shoot shoot on the way
  6. Assault those things and watch them die quick painful deaths
My teammate is going to run either IG or Wolves, either of which can pick up the slack caused by the holes that this list has (and yes, it has many).

What do you guys think?

It's like...

...plastic Christmas.

The new Grey Knights terminator box, that is.

It is stuffed full of all sorts of little prizes, and dripping with exquisite little details!

And since when did GW actually include actual INSTRUCTIONS in their kits? Real live, readable, USEFUL instructions? You know, the kind that actually TELL you what all the parts are, what all the options are....heck, what all those little extra doodads are? It almost brings a tear to this old geek's eye. :)
