this weeks copy of White Dwarf has Apocalypse formation

Someone else on here mentioned this formation as a rumor: That the formation allows them to set their shields such that they work together allowing their shields to screen each other.

Whoever took that picture is a sadistic witch who wants to leave people guessing..

The formation 3-5 Knights strong, formation leader is a Seneschal and must pick one of two options before entering play: Support (Gain Interceptor) or Outriders (gain Scout).

Hm. I kinda hope that rumor isn't true. I can imagine the rage if Knights were able to achieve a 4++ from any attack direction.

Then again, I can see that being an incentive to push more Knight sales so why wouldn't it happen?

Again..

Outflanking knight sounds like fun!

Sorry, BrookM. I read your post but didn't register it as details on the formation and thought it was just your guess.

Cool. Gaining Interceptor or Scout could be a lot of fun.

Well, at least its Apoc only..we have that going for us.

Only Creed has the level of tactical genius necessary to outflank superheavies and there are (at least for the next few weeks) none in the IG codex.
