Bit of a fluff heavy list representing the standing troops of a Knight World, basically a force of men at arms with a knight at their head. I am aiming for a very cavalry centric force - everyone gets a horse, a transport or a knight (apart from the deepstrikers). The list is for friendly games, but I'd like to win a few. There are several instances of 'counts as', mainly for fluff reasons; my gaming group are fine with them, but do feel free to comment. The Tauroxes use Rhino Chassis; I figure the knight worlds, seeing themselves as on-par with the imperium rather than beneath it, would not have given up their rhinos after the Great Crusade (and the rules match reasonably well). The Scions represnt combat engineers/sappers. The Taurox Primes are modelled as Siegfried Light Tanks (a nod to epic, like the knights themselves) and used as transports by the enginseers, who represent Sacrisants. The Knight itself is modelled as a knight Baron (another nod to epic) who is taller than a Paladin, with a power lance instead of a chainsword.

Tactics wise, the enginseers keep the knight alive, whilst the taurox mounted units scoot forwards where needed. The scions deepstrike in at the back to take care of backfield devastators and the blood angels parking lot I have had alot of trouble against.

CCS + 4 PG + Taurox - 170

Knight Paladin - 375

Total Points - 1997

I know it is not the most optimal list, and some choices were made for fluff or monetary reasons (ie only one knight) but any comments or criticism would be more than welcome.

Why must I always choose beween certain death and probable death.
