If you want to keep to a single detachment, you need to buy a knight without question.
			*Zero synergy between your Teleport Shunt and Weapons/Charging abilities. Not only do you lack '''[Assault]''' weapons, besides Draigo, you dont have many options for getting an easier charge. And some of your abilities even lock you out of Charging after redeploying, but you are ''not'' a shooty army.

	*'''Brother-Captain:''' His led unit gains '''Sustained Hits 1''' on their ~~'''Psychic Weapons''' (so ''never'' attach~~ him to a ~~unit relying on Psilencers)~~.		*'''Brother-Captain:''' A beefed-up Paladin. His led unit gains ''[Sustained Hits 1]'' on their psychic weapons - a rule that has no effect on Psilencers due to the restrictions on stacking bonuses. He also has another buff that lets him re-roll to wound his own gun - Something far more reliable for a buff.
	*'''Brotherhood Champion:''' ~~Led unit gains~~ '''Fights First'''.		*'''Brotherhood Champion:''' One of only two power-armoured heroes in the chapter and the only one who wants to be in a fight, particularly with enemy characters thanks to using ''[Precison]''. Fortunately, he's made to be that guy by giving everyone including himself ''Fights First'' and re-rolls to hit and wound enemy characters.
	*'''Brotherhood Chaplain:''' ~~Led~~ unit gains +1 to melee wound rolls.		*'''Brotherhood Chaplain:''' Gives his unit gains +1 to melee wound rolls like any Chaplain but lacks a Combi-Weapon option...not like it changes much for him. He does however add a 6" bubble that makes enemies take -1 to battle-shock tests.
	*'''Brotherhood Librarian:''' ~~Led unit gains~~ a 4++~~+ against~~ '~~''Psychic''' attacks~~.		*'''Brotherhood Librarian:''' Like the Codex-compliant Terminator Librarian, putting him in a squad gives them a 4+ FNP against psychic weapons. He also gets an old-school psychic power that deals a devastating d6 MWs to himself on a 1, 2d3 MWs to an enemy 18" on a 2+ and 2d6 MWs on a 6. This at least gives him a means to damage anything beyond his squad's power.
	*'''Brotherhood Techmarine:'''		*'''Brotherhood Techmarine:''' A purely supportive version of the codex-compliant techie with a built-in Servo-Harness. While he still gets ''Lone Operative'' while being near {{W40kKeyword\|Vehicles}}, his ability to fix a vehicle and give them a +1 to hit do not necessarily have to be the same target so you can fix one while buffing another.
	*'''Grand Master:''' ~~Led unit~~ can ignore modifiers to characteristics, tests, and rolls, except for saving throws, and ~~1/battle~~ they can be targeted by any strat for 0 CP even if the strat has already been used this turn.		*'''Grand Master:''' The closest you get to a Captain. His squad can ignore modifiers to characteristics, tests, and rolls, except for saving throws, and they can be targeted by any strat for 0 CP once per game even if the strat has already been used this turn.
	*'''Grand Master in Nemesis Dreadknight:''' While a bit buffed at ~~M8"~~ T8 Sv2+/4++ W13 ~~Ld6+ OC4~~, still not amazing defensively. Fortunately, the fact that any stratagem used on him will only cost 1 CP regardless of cost means that many defensive tricks will remain affordable.		*'''Grand Master in Nemesis Dreadknight:''' While a bit buffed at T8 Sv2+/4++ W13, it's still not amazing defensively when compared to things like Dreads. Fortunately, the fact that any stratagem used on him will only cost 1 CP regardless of cost means that many defensive tricks will remain affordable.
	**His offensive power has Surge of Wrath to give one GMND each turn the ability to re-roll all hits, wounds, and damage rolls against {{W40kKeyword\|Vehicles}} and {{W40kKeyword\|Monsters}} in melee. This does quite a bit, as both the Nemesis Daemon Greathammer and Nemesis Greatsword have d6s in their damage stats, which can get frustrating since these weapons are made for killing just those sorts of enemies.		**His offensive power has Surge of Wrath to give one GMND each turn the ability to re-roll all hits, wounds, and damage rolls against {{W40kKeyword\|Vehicles}} and {{W40kKeyword\|Monsters}} in melee.

	*'''Land Raider:'''		*'''Land Raider:''' The return of the Assault Ramps means that this makes melee squads of Paladins very strong. This alongside the heightened Toughness of these beasts make them a very easy grab.

	*'''~~Land Raider~~ Redeemer:'''		<tab name="Godhammer/Classic">
			[[Matt Ward\|Of course, its "unique" Godhammer lascannons don't have to deal with the return of Twin-Linked and just get 2 shots base, same as your Ballistus lascannons.]] Aside from that, it comes with a twin heavy bolter to take on anything smaller, with the additional option of a storm bolter and multi-melta depending on what you're up against.
			</tab>
			<tab name="Crusader">
			Comes with two hurricane bolters, thankfully ''Twin-Linked'' so you can dump dozens of dice on an enemy in conjunction with the twin assault cannon. Transport Capacity: 16.
			*The main reason you're grabbing this is because is the expanded storage. 16 slots, however, gives you 8 spaces for terminators/gravis or 5 centurions. If you're using it for Deathwing, it'll give some room for more terminators alongside the leader. It and the Redeemer also get the {{W40kKeyword\|Grenades}} keyword for good measure.
			</tab>
			<tab name="Redeemer">
			Also comes with a twin assault cannon, with the sponsons being flamestorm cannons for super-sized heavy flamers to burn through MEQ. 14 spaces gives you just enough space for 7 terminators. Issue here is that you don't really have any way to make use of this since you can't attach multiple heroes to a squad.
			</tab>
			<tab name="Banisher (IA)">
			Equipped with heavy incinerators for sponsons and a twin psycannon for something more akin to anti-MEQ. Seeing as this is costed the same as a Crusader, this makes the Banisher the better alternative to the Redeemer.

	**Due to the great culling of psychic powers, Astral Aim was made a bit different. Now it provides all guns ''Indirect Fire'' if at least one other GK {{W40kKeyword\|Psyker}} unit can draw LoS to the enemy. This, aside from Overwatch, is the only reason to take Incinerators over Psilencers, because 5 average hits at S5 AP0 is better than 3.5 average hits at S6 AP-1 against the hordes you want both guns against, and the Incinerator's TORRENT and IGNORES COVER both don't care about Indirect penalties.		**Due to the great culling of psychic powers, Astral Aim was made a bit different.
