I'm having a little headscratch.

Has anyone ever bought this https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-GB/Mechanicum-Knight-Battleline ?

I'm wondering why its cheaper than the individual prices, £380 instead of £435, I can only assume its because it comes in 1 box, rather than 3, but boxes arent £55.

Bundle deal. Very common marketing method. Get people spend more by giving them discount. Even gw does that with start collecting boxes.

I assume the idea is that you get a discount for buying in bulk.

If you buy a Magaera and Styrix bundle you also save some money, but only £30.

I mean, the fact that GW generally DOESN'T reduce prices in it's bundle deals is the unusual one.

Please do tell for those who missed the entire show. I only caught the first twelve or so minutes before my internet service provider cut us off until.. just now. First Twitch thing I want to see in ages and I'm denied.

But at least I finally got my Valiant done, so there's that.

All decals are from GW. The roses and scripture are from the sisters of battle decal sheet, skull with crossed swords is from the Baneblade kit, the white shield with blood drop is from Dark Imperium and everything else is from the Armiger and Dominus sheets.

Ugh...they couldn't even spell "Emperor" correctly in their own table.

Tangentially knight-related, I've been working on a "terrain" piece in CAD in between assembling new Knight models. It's a "small" drop keep for 3 Knights.

A little while back I finished work on the first of my own custom Knightly House, House Heraan. Here he is:

The model is fully magnetized to use any combination of weapons. I plan to do at least two more Questoris-class with similar paint scheme, and probably one of each type of Dominus-class eventually, plus at least a couple of each type of Armiger. I might eventually look into the Forge World Knights, but I have no immediate plans to do so.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/1/23, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~15000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Adeptus Custodes: ~1900 | Imperial Knights: ~2000 | Sisters of Battle: ~3500 | Leagues of Votann: ~1200 | Tyranids: ~2600 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000

On my end, the most recent Knight-related thing I've worked on until the heatwave and Kill Team hit, was a dismounted noble for my Valiant, still WIP:



Gotta finish her before the 20th or I'm dead meat.

Joachim, you inspired me to do similar with my Dominus, the knee and hip extensions. Got a Castellan earlier this week, and then ordered the bits for upgrades.

And then, by inspiration and experimentation - anybody who knows me knows I have a thing for muzzle brakes and guns with "character" to them - I decided to mess around with the shoulder turrets. I didn't like the originals, and went through my B&S bits for ideas. I thought of the Light Gatlings, but I only have two and it didn't look quite right.. and then I found a pair of the Twin Light Machine Cannons.. and fiddled with them. A little trimming, a little filing, some fitting, and then some putty, and here we are.

YES, I know the guns are sideways, they'll be turned in due time so they align properly.
