Fly back after actually playing game. A REAL GAME! Wahoooooooooooooo!

Well, in follow up to my recent jury-duty-list-building-post, I fielded something similar to it against my good buddy Jesse.

Jokaero Weaponsmith Conversion

This crazy little ape is, in my opinion, one of the best units in the Grey Knights codex.  Between the utility his weapons offer and the possible upgrades they grant to their unit, Jokaero Weaponsmith's are a hidden gem.  The biggest downside to them is the terribly unimpressive model GW has to offer.  So, with a suggestion from Chris Vinton, I upgraded my Jokaero into a formidable looking techno-gorilla.

Jesse's Gk list breakdown

I have been fielding this 1850 Grey Knights list for the past several months to much success.  The list began in preparation for the TSHIFT open tournament out in Seattle.  

Initially I ran IG allies for some cheap firepower, Vendettas, and my favorite IC ever Guardsmen F'ing Marbo.  After some a few games of testing I didn't enjoy how ineffective lasguns are and the how the army just didn't seem to mesh right.  I felt I wasn't getting enough from my guardsmen to equate their point cost.  Coming from a competitive MtG background where a card didn't make the cut if it didn't either give card advantage or absolutely murder for the mana cost, i try to bring the same thought process to my list building.  Enough talk, here's the list.
