Grey Knights rise as a peak power in #new40k

Malcador envisioned the Grey Knights as the Emperor's daemonhunters! So, they stand as a formidable force against the warp-spawned horrors aligned to threaten the Imperium.

Armed with sanctified wargear and specialized training, they excel at combating both the daemonic and material factions.


With a host of disciplined psychic abilities, deadly melee weapons, and powerful storm bolters… Grey Knights strike fear into their enemies on the assault.


Add to that their teleportation expertise which allows them to appear suddenly on the battlefield, guided by Prognosticars and protected from the perils of the warp. They are a force to be reckoned with!


The ability to Deep Strike is a key strength of the Grey Knights, as every INFANTRY unit in their roster, including the towering Nemesis Dreadknights, possesses this ability. This allows the Grey Knights to dictate the battlefield and make it difficult for their opponents to pin them down or control objectives. The Teleport Strike Force Detachment further enhances their mobility, enabling them to Teleport Shunt through tricky terrain or enemy blockades.



While the Grey Knights have vehicles to support their assaults, they primarily rely on specialized infantry squads. Purgation Squads, for example, utilize Astral Aim to shoot at unseen targets, taking advantage of their excellent mobility and surprising their foes from unexpected angles. The unique Nemesis Dreadknights provide even more overt power, allowing individual warriors, especially Grand Masters, to go head-to-head with Greater Daemons and emerge victorious.



Every Grey Knight is a psychic powerhouse, with each unit possessing a different psychic ability. Purifier Squads specialize in incinerating enemies up close with their radiant soulfire, augmented by their storm bolters and special weapons. The Teleport Strike Force Stratagems leverage their teleportation capabilities, granting advantages to units that have just arrived by Deep Strike or Teleport Assault, enabling precise hammer blows against the enemy.



With improved toughness and elite status, the Grey Knights have become a more resilient force. Many units now have improved Save characteristics, sometimes even reaching a 2+. Their psychic abilities focus on enhancing their own prowess rather than directly harming their foes, reflecting their deep understanding of the perils of the warp.


Grey Knights will be a formidable force of empyrically-charged Space Marines, renowned for their appearance seemingly from nowhere and their unparalleled mobility on the battlefield.


Their specialized abilities and teleportation tactics make them a force to be reckoned with, capable of adapting to threats and delivering precise strikes where the enemy least expects them. With their enhanced resilience and psychic mastery, the Grey Knights are an indomitable presence against the forces of the warp.
