You sit in ruins, score and wait till it comes for you. Than you get as many powerklaw attacks as possible and pray for a knight to not get a 6 on stomps. Or you rush it with your trukks and try t ocharge it and drown in power klaw attacks. Still praying for it to not get a 6 on stomps.

Tankbustas in trukks would seem like a decent solution (though the grenades FAQ ruling has nerfed them somewhat...

Fully Painted Armies: 2200pts Orks 1000pts Space Marines 1200pts Tau 2500pts Blood Angels 3500pts Imperial Guard/Renegades and 1700pts Daemons 450pts Imperial Knights

Well, if you really want to MURDER a knight, the best solution would be meganobz with saws in a battlewagon. Battlewagons are close to immune to knight's range shooting and meganobz one-shot knights. Well, unless you fail a fear test and wiff with most of your attacks. But you can have a megaboss + 4-5 meganobz with saws + a wagon for the price of one knight.

You can even switch megaboss for Grotsnik to nullify the chance of failing a fear/pinning test.

Most of the time you're better off running nobs as the seargents in boyz squads instead of in a unit of their own. As for how to kill a knight, killsaw MANz missiles (expendable units meganobs in trukks) are good, but are probably too expensive to fit into this point level. VS the Knight I'd recommend MSU tactics attempting to win by holding objectives via target saturation.

One game I was playing a Ghazcurion and my opponent's knight wanted to charge Ghaz and Krew but because of all of both our units where jammed in a tight spot and the large size of the knight base, a single Fearless Boy prevented the knight from charging. Next turn Ghaz charges and with two MAWB's and a Killsaw BM easily knocks over the knight who stumbles backwards and explodes on some of opp's Death Guard. Don't underestimate MSU when playing knights, especially multiple knights.

Take the objectives and keep him tied up with other msu all waiting for their number to be called. As long as he's busy making green paste all game and can't shoot you can claim an objective win. And pray he doesn't roll 6 on stomps.

Skip the choppas and give them powerklaws. Nothing will make a knight gak itself than seeing 2-5 powerklaws coming at him.
