Here's a thought for another take on the BT list I have, and have just started using. We lose a squad for Grey Knights, basically.
HQ
Castellan w/ Terminator Armor, Storm Bolter, Power Weapon [110]
4 Sword Brethren Command Squad [215]
-Tank Hunters
-2x Assault Cannons
Grey Knight Brother-Captain [81]
-Psychic Hood
4 Grey Knight Terminators w/ Psycanon [209]
Emperor's Champion [140]
-Accept Any Challenge, No Matter The Odds
Elite
5 Sword Brethren Terminators [255]
-2 Assault Cannons
-Tank Hunters
5 Sword Brethren Terminators [255]
-2 Assault Cannons
-Tank Hunters
5 Sword Brethren Terminators [255]
-2 Assault Cannons
-Tank Hunters
Troops
5 Initiates w/ Lascannon [95]
5 Initiates w/ Lascannon [95]
5 Initiates w/ Lascannon [95]
5 Initiates w/ Lascannon [95]
5 Initiates w/ Lascannon [95]
Total 1995/2000
It's not too different from the previous list. I free up points to go for a fifth trooper-mounted lascannon, and get a Psychic Hood into the deal. I also get some guys that actually swing at initiative, which is a novelty for a non-SW terminator army.
Furthermore, I get a psychic hood. Yay, psychic defense.
On the downside, I give up a pair of tank-hunting assault cannons for a lone psycannon. At least the psycannon has a 36" range. I probably have the points to slap a Targeter in there, for an added bonus. I don't have the DH codex near me, but I have them in spreadsheets, so yeah.
Thoughts on this? Is it worth it to drop an HQ squad for a psychic hood and lose the firepower?

I think that could work. You miss out on 2 assault cannons but gain a serious punch in HtH and the hood, plusd another lascanno.
Where's the EC?
....knew I forgot to type something. Good catch, Old-school termie.
He's in there, points-wise. I'll edit him into it...
