Well, I suppose that huge brush will be the most expensive emulsion brush ever. At least you can decorate your room after you've given your Knight a quick drybrush with it...

So instead of twin-linked S7 AP4 autocannons with Skyfire and Interceptor, you want S7 AP4 flakk missiles with Skyfire?

Indeed.


I can't work out GW here at all.

The CSM units in the Khorne daemonkin book don't -- IIRC -- have the option to but flakk missiles, so you're "stuck" with FMC, 'drakes and Soulgrinders etc as AA.

One wondered if this was perhaps the start of a trend...
.. but the Eldar seem to have AA missile options still ...?



Better yet the Eldar AA missile option is -FREE- on all EMLs.

I'm seriously baffled by the decision to rerelease knights right after the Eldar gakstorm.

Hey guys, let's redo this army. That will cost a minimum of £300 to start up. And is entirely reliant on vehicles.

In a meta where we just introduced Strength D spam.


And not put a single Strength D ranged weapon to boot...


This makes the massive amount of Strength D on Eldar even more confusing. I admit I fell prey to thinking that the new Knights would get S-D weapons, simply because it made sense in my mind. But since they don't look to be getting it, I'm wondering why it was given out like candy to the Eldar? Are Dark Eldar going to get it too or are they too evil to deserve the attention? What about Necrons, they're just as technologically advanced as Eldar.

'Exclusively designed for..' - funny, they look exactly like the ones you can buy from every art store. Although I'm curious to see what uses they came up with for each.

White Dwarf Weekly is going to be available via subscription soon. Bad news though is that it will be more expensive than buying the indiviual issues in a shop - at least in Germany not sure about other countries. This is advertised in the upcoming WDW magazine (the issue where those pics are from).

Actually they're pretty equal since the Castigator is twin-linked. That said the Castigator doesn't have other guns so he can shoot one target and charge another so the Crusader is going to make it sad unless it's absurdly costed.
I'd forgotten about the twin linked on the Castigator, there is a chance the new one is also twin linked as we haven't seen the new Knight entries. Even without twin linking it'll cause 0.6 more wounds than the old one against MEQ, and against a 2+ the same again due to the rending. In CC I'd have the Castigator every time, that sword is just too useful against larger units.

Picture the Knight holding the transport upside down, vigorously shaking it and then flinging it at the ex-passengers!

Okay, if any Knight can be upgraded with the twin Icarus Autocannons then I really hope they sell that sprue separately.

So it seems to me that the new thing with knights might be the basic chasis and multiple upgrade options. Kind of a build your own knight thing, which I like. I wouldnt be surprised for instance if the new AA mount is an upgrade that any knight can take

Also, I dont know if anyone caught this, but it says in the artilcle that the kit is the full paladin and errant kit with an added sprue for the new additions

The brushes seem interesting. Need some actually, so might take a look. But they may price themselves out of the market.

But they look fairly decent from the pictures. Then again I liked the old red ones best so far.
