remember the knights from epic? half as big as a warhound titan but just as cool...
Why games workshop does not look into these is beyond me. Generally the adeptus mechanicus is so overlooked its painfull.

one might be tempted to simply use the gk rules but a melee heavy mechanicus army seems..... wierd to say the least.

GW doesn't make a Mechanicus Army mainly out of:

A.) Laziness. Would need too many new models.

B.) Marketability. The Space Marines are their best product so they market those the most. 5 different codex's for various Space Marine Chapters for example.

C.) AdMech would operate too much like an IG army and would share the same strengths/weaknesses except the added bonuses of fearlessness and better endurance.

But yes as a big Mechanicus fan I would love to see a proper army for them someday, especially considering how big they are in fluff. Easily the most overlooked major faction.

As for the Knight, it could probably function as a pretty good super-heavy weapon like the Baneblade or the like.
