If your starting a new knight army. Buy Canis Rex kits exclusively and magnetize. The kit give you everything you need to run any knight you want

@knightsljx 4 ай бұрын

you can ONLY buy the canis rex unless you're buying old boxes. the lastest Questoris packaging is the Canis Rex without the box art, that's why GW only has ONE SKU each for the Questoris, Abominant, and Castellan.

I think one of the things I like about Imperial Knights, is the ability to just pick up one model and use it in your imperium army. So even if you only pick up 4 armigers to start? You can run 3 of them in your space marines.

@KriegeroftheLake Ай бұрын

I'm planning on making an Knights army at some point but to make it an engineers units, based off the British 79th Amoured Division of WW2 with their Hobarts funnies. So one will be a fascine carrier, one with anti mine flail like the Sherman Crab, making one into a recovery Imperial Knight with cranes, a bridge layer Knight etc. All non playable additions and magnetised so they can be removed if necessary, but I just thought of the idea and become fascinates with it.

Honestly dude thank you man! Your idea inspired me to think about adding some character to my knight army and I am going to assign battle field roles to each knight. So heavy gunner, combat engineer, assault.. that kind of thing. Make it like a massive version of an infantry squad 🙂

Yeah now look up the average cost of a 2k army. You'll rapidly realize WHY its said

@NeilFosterTheDarkGameMaster Ай бұрын

A big save is also magnetizing. it's surprisingly easy to do with just a manual Dremel and means you only need 3 Questoris, 2 Dominus, Whatever Cerastsus models you think are cool, Canis rex, and 5 boxes of magnetized Armigiers to get a fairly comprehensive library of units. while the upfront cost is a little more then say grey knights or custodes, in the long run you end up saving several thousands of dollars. So in addition to be relatively easy to finish a 2k list you also are only a few more models away from finishing what will feel like a nice wide collection. Little old to reply but for future peeps I figured I should write this

For competitive lists your going to want to start with 2 Magnetized Questoris and 7 Magnatized Armigers. On the side you want two 10 man Exaction squads and a vindicare assassin. Later add a dominus and maybe a 10 man voidsman(2x rogue trader kill team) squad for some flexibility. If you want get some cerastus in plastic after this.

The cheapest army is imperial knights if you bought 2 battleforces. 340€ en GW store but I got two of them in my local game store for 136€ each. 20% discount. 272€ in total I think there is nothing cheaper new in sprues than this example.

What I really don't get is why you can't be an admech knights house... The majority of knights ARE sworn to the admech .. I feel like it'd be fun to have some admech, skitari maybe to handle scouting and objective stuff and keep things off your big boys, and then knights. I saw the big porph knight.. immediately I went and grabbed an STL Cuz there's no way I'm paying them hundreds for a few pounds of resin, my resin is 22 a bottle ;). Probably wouldn't use him in a game anyway, he's SOOO expensive points wise. Anyone know if I'm allowed to use my ren faire house name for my knights army? 😂 I've even got my own personal heraldry and house heraldry I could apply accurately to my knights. I found a really neat replacement head for the questoris or probably dominus too since they share so much, it's a bearded helmet. 😂. I'll probably have at least one bearded knight just for fun.

@@smoogsterdragongaming323 I actually ran the math on it, you could pick up 2 knights and 8 armigers brand new for only £344; thats a pretty great cost as far as armies go. I mean, speaking from experience for thousand sons you're looking at atleast £425 minimum for the bare essentials with no flexibility if you're buying all brand new from a 3rd party retailer. At the time though, you couldve picked up 2 chainbreaker lance boxes at a discount for £115 and that wouldve been your entire army for £230 done pretty much.
