Folger’s Custodes were led by three Blade Champions for charge re-rolls and fantastic melee models. A single Custodian Guard adds in the faction’s standard troops, which are famously better than most other factions (albeit at a higher cost, too).

A single Psykana Rhino brings in a dedicated transport to help move the Sisters of Silence units further down the list. Two Grav-tanks bring in some solid armored models with fantastic ranged firepower.

Three units of Wardens bring in some more infantry bodies with some extra durability. A unit of Prosecutors and two units of Witchseekers for the only cheap model options in the faction with some decent anti-psyker abilities. Inquisitor Draxus is then allied as the final unit for a great solo model.
