I don't think most people are calling for a refresh so much as an expansion. More different bodies/bases for more units with more data sheets.

Right, I was more responding to a point made I think in jest by someone responding to Karol. I don't recall the 7 layer cheese dip of replies that got me to say that, but I don't want new models, I just want what we have, in plastic. And not in single use Character models at 45$ a pop only sold in Combat patrol boxes. ***Deep breaths**** I am a pebble in a lake.....

There's no reason to resculpt existing models, but they should still get some new models to add more variety. Custodes, and Votann desperately need an expansion. Drukhari need a smaller expansion and resculpts. Aeldari need a few resculpts. Daemon armies probably need a couple more datasheets to make mono-god viable. Knights need some sort of mega revamp to give them objective holders (Potentially Grot/Cultist Quality 5/10 man service crews that are just armed enough to hold objectives) The split out Legions need to get a few datasheets filled out for them as well - Fortifications for Thousand Sons and World Eaters for example. And yeah, World Eaters aren't exactly the Fortification type, so "break" the rules. Make their Fortification mobile, insane, and more about taking down other fortifications than providing it's own. They've expanded the Factions/SubFactions without doing the second fill-out pass on many of them.

Knights already have that. See agents of the Imperium.

Kinda need the chaos equivalent too, not a fan of using daemons with them personally.

Yeah Knights without Imperial/Chaos in front meant Knights collectively aka Both. Some cheap Cultists tied to the knight body i.e. If you get a big knight you get 1 Crew unit of 10, Armigers get 1 Crew unit of 5 - they're placed at the same time as one unit, but then operate independently like they used to do with Lieutenants, or Squadroned Tanks etc Just spitballing not a finished idea but it should convey the point - an all-but-junk unit that can't be spammed, but lets knights participate in the generally infantry based objective game. Add a body/base or two to the Custodes wtih a couple different Datasheets off each body - preferably sneaky INFILTRATE/SCOUT types and/or heavy weapon types.
