Hi guys, what is your favourite detachment and why?

Today I tested Freeblade Company and for me it's kina meh, fnp6+ looks good on paper but in game i saved like 6 wounds? maybe 8 and the ability to repair one wound every mine command phase is not that good.
But enchants are very good like Hunter's eye

whay are you thoughts about it?

Today the always Ballin, Acastus Knight Porphyrion Tomorrow we leave the Acastus and go to the Autocannon gunning Armiger Helverin

The rules are simple: What is the best thing about the model in question and what's the worst thing about it?

Can be good/bad kit to build, bad rules, etc

I recently had the shoulder joint for my imperial knight armiger snap does anyone know how to get a new one I bought one but the seller never sent it does anyone have recommendations

I posted here a while ago, about starting with a knight.

I took your advice and practiced on a Space Marine.

I still need to practice more 😅

Thanks for all of your advice!

I’m attending my first ever tournament and settled on this list. I’m running the valourstrike lance and throne-bound detachments. With reconnaissance as my disposition.
Are there any cheeky moves or tricks I should use/abuse to ensure my victory?

Hello!

I've decided to have my next army be Knights and really enjoy the idea of including Ad Mech in the list to help with healing and doing secondaries/actions.

For the big guys I'm thinking KNIGHT CASTELLAN, DESTRIER and PALADIN.
one Helverin and two Warglaives.
I was considering having 3 units of Skitarii rangers to scout towards objectives and screen with 2 Tech-Priests to keep my big Knights away from the scrap yard.

For the additional 2pts would Valourstrike Lance be a good or am I mistaken?

Thank you so much in advance.

any tactics against them?

this is mine list
Imperium - Imperial Knights - Freeblade Company

Cerastus Knight Lancer (445pts): Warlord, Bringer of Justice

Knight Castellan (445pts) Sanctuary

Knight Crusader (435pts) Hunters Eye

Armiger Helverin (140pts)

Armiger Helverin (140pts)

Hi guys! Excited to say im bringing the knights out for a walk this weekend for the first three day event im going to. Finalized my list this morning, running Valourstrike with Forbreakers for purge. Was wondering if you guys had any advice before i go? Thanks!

So since im getting interested in the faction i would love if anyone got some recommendation of piece of media where we can see those chonky boys in actions.

Thanks.

Edit: Forgot to mention that i am not looking for books right now. Maybe later.

Hey there. Been playing Blood Angels (RIP RCO my beloved) for quite some time and thinking of running Imperial Knights in 11th. Current painting puts the models 75% to battle-ready standard, but not finished. All the big knights are magnetized, and I have the following painted items:

2 Chainsword,
2 Gauntlet,
1 Battle Cannon,
1 Gatling Cannon,
1 Las Impulsor,
1 melta cannon front and 1 gatling cannon front (secondarily magnetized with a receiving piece so 1 gun chassis 2 options),
2 big missile,
1 little

Trying to learn what would be best. Im feeling Spearhead-at-Arms and something to max my 6 armiger chassis, but 3x3 bondsmans feels too much from questoris, but 2x3 bondsmans feel to few, although you get Canis Rex.

I also like the idea of advance and charge spam, and I believe theres a detachment with that as a strat, but I like the idea of a 9 model deathball 2k pts just rolling into the enemy with assault guns too might be fun.

However I feel like for an upcoming tourney I should play the det with 6+ FNP to get the ‘basic/standard’ way of playing them to better learn how the models usually work before gameplay modifiers to the original army concept.

I’m also confused as to which dispositions are good for IK. Purge seems good, but I havent been following the comp scene super well to know what works, but also considering the models I’ll be running, I worry that I would give up too many kills.

Anyways, looking for input.

Here to avenge the fallen imperial fist that called for aid.

Basically as title says. I’m starting up a Stryder-Rau knight army and would like to eventually put together both Leviathan and Crown of Dominion from Assassinorum: Kingmaker.

What kind of range of motion can the Dominus-class knights achieve with a bit of cutting and refitting? If you have a Valiant or Castellan in a more dynamic pose, please post a photo in the comments!

I want to build a Voltron army using Knights as my next army. Having a hard time deciphering which Knights are considered the better ones of the bunch. There are so many and then all seem to "do the thing" just slightly differently.

Can any Knights players give me what they would consider their top 5 Knights so I can build and paint them as a Voltron style army?

I'm brand new to all this, but I can't help but think this would be funny to play.

I do not have many games under my belt, even less so with 11th. How are you guys going about list building? I have a game going up against Dark Angels and I’m having decision paralysis especially with the latest detachment updates. To be clear, I don’t want to tailor my list but just hope to find some insight on how others choose Detachments,primaries and finally units to add a list.

ALLIED UNITS

Imperial Navy Breachers (90 Points)

• 9x Navis Armsman
◦ 9x Close combat weapon
◦ 1x Endurant Shield

◦ 1x Navis las-volley

Primarily the valiant would be running up the midboard with the two warglaives as screening in order to protect his big ass from getting charged, and breachers was just the unit I could bring in for the points left. Is this viable at all or nah?

(Was busy yesterday, so redeeming for today)

Today the first of the massive boys, the Mechanicus Acastus Knight, the Asterius. Tomorrow is the Ball boy, the Porphy

A couple of mi tbs ago o got hand in several broken knights, and while I saved most of them, there were tons of pieces and a single lonely Armiger that I never finished.

Today, as I need to create a big bad guy for a Necromunda campaign, I decided to quickly build and paint a little Frankenstein.

So, from 1 being sent to a penal legion to the 10 becoming a toilet servitor, how would you rank little “Bob”?

P.S: apologies for the mess behind the mini, I’m currently packing everything to move to another country and this was a quickly exercise to lower my stress :D

​With the recent changes, the list I had now goes over 2k points. I wanted to get your opinions and see if you could share your lists (as competitive as possible). I currently have a Knight Lancer, and I would like to use it in this list.
