In this Warhammer 40,000 battle report we talk through the Adeptus Astartes Grey Knights army and the secondary objectives that work well for them.
We also go through the Astra Militarum army list and their secondary objective choices.
We show you the armies, the mission, the deployment, turn by turn analysis and with the end of the turn and game round-up.
If you are looking for a new competitive Militarum army using the rules from their 8th edition codex, but also themed to their narrative play style then you will love this list.
