Topic: Dreadknight weapons combination

[Saim-Hann Corsair]

I would like to know what people think is the best Dreadknight weapon combination that would keep it at 200 points or less. I am already using the Psycannon as one. So basically it is either another shooting weapon or a melee weapon. This is for a Rogue Trader Tourney list, and this Dreadknight will have the teleported and be moving around with a 5 man Interceptor squad that is armed with an Incinerator, 3 halberds and a sword on the Justicar.

Do not include the points for the teleporter on the Dreadknight in the 200 points.

The Greatsword's now so powerful a choice I see no reason aside from very-points restrictive lists to not take it. If you do nothing else, grab that.

That's what I was thinking too, but wanted to see if anyone else thought differently.

I think the heavy incinerator is by far the best ranged weapon for it's points, imho a better bet than the H-Psycannon especially if you are using a personal teleporter. After shunting you can hit any target on the board which is especially good given all the aegis lines that are around.

I agree on the sword, the FAQ made it a must take choice for me, Teleporter/Incinerator/Sword is my standard loadout.

Agreed this is a boss setup

The thing is I want that extra strength from the Psycannon and the large blast template. Are the re-rolling that great, when compared to just having two doomfists? With this I mean taking the Incinerator and Psycannon and just leaving the doomfists for assault.

Bear in mind having the sword will give the benefits of the Doomfist and its own rules as per the latest GK FAQ, so on a Shuntknight, it's worth it every time.

I have yet to use a Dreadknight without a teleporter and was wondering if anyone has tried out deepstriking with a Dreadknight?
