Grey Knights: Shooty or Fighty?


Back in the days of the Daemon Hunter codex it was common knowledge that Grey Knights were not a fighty army, they were a shooty army. A lot of this was because a) they had storm bolters and b) you were so likely to get creamed by anything even remotely scary, you had to stay the fuck away from pretty much the whole world. Some of you might be surprised to find out that according to internet wisdom, this classification of Grey Knights has not changed. Despite army-wide force weapons, psychic dickery and entirely new types of close combat grenades materializing out of thin air (POP!), the word on Nerd Street is that if you’re trying to beat things up in base-to-base you’re not doing it right. So why is this?

How many veterans does it take to pop a rhino?

Recently I've seen some of our local gamers creating lists for new armies they're playing and its interesting to see how much anti-tank they think is enough and what the value of various anti-tank units is. Some people think that Ravagers for example should be a pretty darn reliable anti tank solution. So in response I've done a bit of math-hammer, pitting some anti-tank weapons vs the ubiquitous and humble space marine rhino.
