Thats useful, thanks
Have had a look at the match up. If I deploy the Grey Knights/Paladins/Dread Knights and they all shoot at once, even assuming a Fate weaver re roll on all 5+ invuls, they will inflict 36-37 wounds - 18 dead 2w models.
I am thinking if just deploying a pally/character/dread knight blob right in the middle - with Coteaz dont forget - then just blast whatever lands. If I can do it from 20+ inches then all the better. Just shoot what is closest first and work my way out!
I think this is far better than trying to down fate weaver - who I believe I should just ignore.
What do people think?

Also worked out that 10 pallies versus 2 x 6 screamers with overwatch etc, the pallies do 13 wound (including 4 before contact and 4 with halberds) and the screamers inflict 7. On those odds, I figure with 1 full round of shooting only I can just take the buggers on. That doesnt even include Draigo and Coteaz's attacks.
What do we think? If I can ensure 1 round of shooting I reckon I can do enough damage. Lets face it - thats how I play anyway!
Other ideas welcome.

its a simple tactic but one i like.
FIRE EVERYTHING
Im not much different with my Dark angels, focus fire, prioritize targets eliminate and move on.

I believe you are making the trip today, so a weather report would be much obliged. I am considering three options - go tonight, go in the morning, stay at home - so report plz!
