I am wondering about what are the pros and cons of adding an Imperial Knight to my Eldar army.

- Love the fluff I can create around Imperial Knight joining an Eldar force
- I have one Wraithknight at the moment (and nearly every other Eldar codex option), is this a better option?
- AV or T?
- Point Cost Difference
- FOC pros / cons


I am eager to hear what you all think about this, and if anyone has ever tried it before.

Thanks ahead of time everyone!

would it not be easier and fluffier to add wraithknights? Or go straight for an eldar titan? Just a suggestion

Really can't see them being worth it in a force where Wraithknights are an alternative.

I have run them with my Eldar with great success. I feel they insulate a list against units like seekers of slaanesh who will eat through a wraithknight. One of each is fun. they have great parity.

I ran Two with my eldar list and a wraithknight. Only loss at a major tournament was in the finals against someone that we will say ...... wasn't honest..

Very effective in my opinion

At 1850 (maybe even at 1750), do it. You won't regret it. Imperial Knights perform strongly in many (most? all?) areas where non-imperial armies are weak.

Oh and this: Stomps ignore Invisibility, so get your stomp on!

Wow, thanks!

Interesting disparity in opinions, but I I'm hoping that the additional variety of it being AV / Super-Heavy doesn't outweigh the cost?

What have others used along side it? 1 WK , 2WK - what else?
