Grey Knights Once More - ZeroHammer!

This list plays upon the time-honoured concept of HeroHammer (also known as 2nd Edition 40k/5th Edition WFB) and inverts it, creating a list where the mice become men, Petruchio.

Guys, essentially, who aren't for/capable of heavy lifting are being press ganged into it here - let's see if they are up to the challenge...



Henchmen Squad:
7 Super-Sisters, 2 Jokaero, 3 Super-Sisters w/ Melta, Chimera [ML/HF] - 316


Henchmen Squad:
7 Super-Sisters, 2 Jokaero, 3 Super-Sisters w/ Melta, Chimera [ML/HF] - 316

Henchmen Squad:
6 Super-Sisters, 2 Jokaero, 3 Super-Sisters w/ Melta, Chimera [ML/HF] - 299

Henchmen Squad:
6 Super-Sisters, 2 Jokaero, 3 Super-Sisters w/ Melta, Chimera [ML/HF] - 299

Inquisitor TuckinInThe CoatTails - 100

Land Raider Crusader:
Multi-Melta, PsyBolt Ammo - 270

Land Raider Crusader:
Multi-Melta, PsyBolt Ammo - 270

Ordo Malleus Inquisitor:
Terminator Armour, Nemesis Daemon Hammer, Psycannon, 2 Servo Skulls - 96

TOTAL: 2000

A 'Super-Sister', in case you were wondering, is a Warrior Acolyte, with Power Armour and Stormbolter.  Seventeen points isn't really a bargain, but it's hardly a rip-off either.  The real reason it's so viable is because 1/3 Jok rolls will result in the double roll - and that gives a decent chance of one unit getting a 2+ armour, and another a 5++ (maybe the same unit, even)

It makes the unit, despite being T3, surprisingly resilient - though only having 6 Vehicles is kinda bad, those LRCs will fuck Infantry up something shocking.  As for Transports?  Well, the Assault Cannon becomes a Psycannon - and we all know they blow Rhinos like 'Princesses' blow Charlie Sheen.  (Too graphic? lol)

This is the tenth-most-read of ALL TIME, and no-one comments? Bizarre...
