    Teleport assault is separate from deep strike, as the keywords triggering each are separate. Stratagems also make a distinction that teleport assault is not a deepstrike (even though it uses the rules of deepstrike for its return) Which means, yes, we can Teleport Assault on turn 1. We can also deepstrike on turn 1 with one unit with a leader with First to the Fray

      Turn 1 but only if your opponent gets the first turn, and you didn't hold them in reserves but instead picked them up off the table at the end of your opponent's turn.

    About the Nemesis Dreadknight(regular), Tankshock is an average of 5 MW when using the Nemesis Daemon Greathammer. So you can move 14", shoot, then charge it with Tankshock and wollop it with the hammer. If you have a GK Techmarine to support it, even better. A bit expensive, so it will need good targets to engage.
    The mobility makes it less reliant on CP compared to several of the other units, meaning they will have an easier time of it as well.

  • @fendelphi
    @fendelphi Рік тому +1

    I have an important question for you guys. It is about First to the Fray(FttF from now on).
    The short version of the question is, does it allow a Landraider to Deep Strike, or is the transport only allowed to enter from a board edge?
    To elaborate.
    FttF states that it can only be added on a model with Deep Strike. This is kind of redundant, as there are no GK characters without Deep Strike. So there must be some kind of reason for why they mention this.
    Then it is mentioned that "neither the unit, nor any transport they are -embarked within-, is counted towards any limits the mission places on the number of Strategic Reserves Units you can have".
    So the unit can be in reserve, inside a transport.
    It then goes on to saying "That unit can be deployed using its Deep Strike ability...". It does not add "or from a board edge, as usual for transports". Only Deep Strike. For a unit embarked in a transport.
    If we look at the fluff text for FttF, we have this: "Whether braving premature teleportation assaults or leaping from the hatch of a transport still aglow from atmospheric entry..." which suggest that transports are indeed dropped right into the middle of things, as if it was a drop pod.

    Sorry a little confused, why give Death From The Warp to Nemesis Dreadknights specifically, those are already allowed to Advance and Shoot because of their Datasheet Ability [Empyric Reprisal (Psychic): This model is eligible to shoot and declare a charge in a turn in which it Advanced or Fell Back] of course +1 To Hit is nice, but I think I might prefer targeting a big Interceptor Unit? Move 12" Auto Advance 6" Shoot unit on an objective or something and use thei ability [Personal Teleporters: In your Shooting phase, after this unit has shot, if it is not within Engagement Range of one or more enemy units, it can make a Normal move of up to 6" as if itwere your Movement phase. If it does, until the end of theturn, this unit is not eligible to declare a charge.] to either contest the objective or get back in cover. I think that might create more value than giving a single Nemesis Dreadknight a +1 To Hit. If you don't want to miss out on the +1 To Hit I also see a place for a BROTHERHOOD TECHMARINE in a Nemesis Dreadknight list.

      Unfortunately, mission rules state that you can't come down in range to control an objective. You have to make your way onto the point via other means if you want to try to claim it.
      I do think it's stupid how this isn't mentioned in the gray knights book or in the core rulebook, but only on the mission rules for missions that have claimable objectives.

      I would say yes there is no limit on it except for the 9" and I'm pretty sure GW would have stated a limit in the paragraph of Teleport Assault .
      1. it does not state putting them in to strategic reserves or reinforcements, just remove them from the table
      2. Anywhere 🤪
      1: Once you have made your selections,
      remove those units from the battlefield.
      2: In the Reinforcements step of your next
      Movement phase
      3: set each of those
      units up anywhere on the battlefield
      4: that is more than 9" horizontally
      away from all enemy models.
      thats pretty damn strong too

As the target is still not visible to the shooting unit, it still gets the benefit of cover and the -1 to hit. So it is only really beneficial to Incinerators most of the time.

    I've been playing grey knights only since the end of 6th eddition. My army has been lacking unit/sqaud selection choice options since then. Our only new model is a single hq choice. Other armies got pleanty of new models/sqauds/units to play with. Since 6th eddition til now we got nemisis dread knights and a hq. We have had restriction upon restriction placed on our choices and it sucks. 10 eddition has made me wana take a dam hammer to all my army and destroy them. They completly removed the psycic phase from the game and this phase made our faction unique. Now there diffrent painted ultra merines. A sad cookie cutter replicant of every other space marine army. They took what was a secondary use of our army, (telepotation) and made it the only sole thing that makes us unique into the main thing our army is good at. Basicly they said we can run away from battle easier. I play if my grey knight falls back. I end the game becouse my whole army turns away from the enemy and hunts the deserter down for extermination. And gw made them all masters of fleeing from a fight. Soo pissed off. They took all my units psycic spells away from all my units except drago, a libraion, and maybe another unit but compaired to all previous edditions all units/sqauds/independant charectors had spells they can cast that gave my faction flexability and something of an edge and uniqness from other factions. Now we have the same acesses to psycic spells as any other space marine faction. OUR FACTION HAS BEEN TURNED INTO A RUNNING JOKE! I am boycotting 10th eddition completly. I may even stop buying any warhammer product at all. I have no faction anymore. I'm soo dam mad!

    Yeah how do you play GK, an army that deals ZERO damage?
    Grand masters - give a strat for 0 cost ONCE per game. A normal SM captain gives 0 cost strat every turn.
    Seems gk got the shitend of the deal.
    The army feels like you run jumping grots with 2+ saves that do just as much damage as grots, none.

      To be fair, Captains do not have stratagems that allows them to redeploy a unit if an enemy moves close or make you immune to shooting against any unit beyond 12". Could you imagine being able to use any of the GK Stratagems for free on 3 different units, each turn?

      @@fendelphi Yes as it stands now that would be a must. The so called good GK are utter crap and at the 30% bottom.
      Thats what you get when you have an army of pathetic stormbolters and nothing else priced at 300p per 10.

      @@Pyriel2 Storm Bolters are actually very good weapons. If you have the right things to support it(like a way to get Lethality and enhance AP like Astra Militarum does), that is. Unfortunately, GK do not have such options, so it is mostly just an anti-fodder weapon. Which is not bad, if the meta involved a lot of low cost, low armored models.
      As it is now though, they simply have to focus solely on taking and stealing objectives and secondaries, which they are decently good at. It is just not that appealing.
      Also, isnt their Strike Squad 270 per 10?

      Sure but gk are stuck with stormbolters. Your 40+ points mini is thus armed with a plastic spoon and can change that for another plastic spoon. Try damaging vehicles or monsters with this. Oh yeah they can almost always jump away like wow, games are not won by running away from enemy units after shooting at them with a few water pistols when you pay 27-45p per mini.
