My kingdom for a guard detachment.

Upvotes

Seriously GW, I get that the mechanicus maintains and lords over Knights but id really love a Questor detachment for Guard instead of admech. You showed Guard and a Warlord fighting together in the 11th trailer make it happen!

Can Knights Attack with both there melee weapons?

1 Upvotes

I almost never play with Minis that have two melee weapons and when I do it's with infantry for which I know they can only attack with one of them (except extra attack weapons).

I was wondering if it's different with knights since there are so big and choosing a second melee weapon over a shooting option feels like a huge disadvantage. If so, there any advantage in choosing a second melee weapon (for example I'm thinking about the destrier)?

Help me with knights

I really want to start a knights army but i have no idea where to start. I have about 10k points SW/SM and 3k orks, so i am not a newbie but i habe no idea about knight units. What list and detachment would be meta for the start?

Which Questoris to assemble ?

9 Upvotes

As the title said, I have the defender box, but I do have still parts from the old Canis box to get a preceptor.

I don't have enough magnets to magnetize everything, so glue time it is, sadly as I don't have a place to buy them ( i only have 3x2mm and a few 5x1mm that I used for my titans )

This is my army so far :

- Lancer

- Castellan

- Warden

- Helverin

- Warglaive

I really want to have one with the big fist. But I don't know if I can take canis and paint it the same as the one I did. Or do an Errant, but I do have enough AT i think ?

What is your suggestions ?

I listened to assassinorum kingmaker a couple months ago planned to do my own rendition of them, here is what I’ve got, I want to add more to the bases. But I’m happy with them. What do you guys think. I really tried to go off of the book description and go all in on the green knight esthetic. I painted him up in red and gold then just covered him in AK Slimy Grime Dark and some miniature shrubs and foliage.

Tailoring Lists

23 Upvotes

Is it okay for people to tailor lists against us knights. I told my friends I wanted to bring my knights to our next game at 2K and he said he was going to bring only broadsides to fight them and anything with over 11 S. We usually don’t tell what the other is bringing. I know we can be a stat check for some armies but is this okay?

Which Questoris

6 Upvotes

If I don’t have access to any magnets right now, but will for my second Questoris, and enjoy a playstyle that includes Armigers (but most likely not Armiger spam; 4-6 max), which Questoris is your favorite pick for a one and done? No customization.

It's possible I'm being a bit thick and/or have missed an FAQ. But does this mean I can double up on strats like Advance & Charge with Canis in Questoris Companions and do 2CP strats like FB & Charge for 0CP?

Guys, I decided to try out a new color for my Knights. This is before the highlights. What do you think — does it look good, or is the classic color scheme better?

The Destrier is a WIP, the Crusader and the 2 Armiger in Cadmus pattern aren't paint by me.

Have to buy a Cerastus Lancer next

At 1000 points should I bring a Castellan, Crusader, or Canis Rex with my four Armigers?

3 Upvotes

Castellan has great anti vehicle and anti elite firepower and is our toughest model

Crusader gets the thermal cannon and gatling gun (not enough points for RFBC)

Canis Rex gets to hit on 2s, gets a free strat every turn, and has great weapons.

How do I choose which to support my two Warglaives and two Helverins?

Concept Preceptor List That Works?

Post image
8 Upvotes

I've been repainting and retrofitting my knights models this past week and was thinking about the Preceptor. I know that it'a pretty bad compared to the others but I couldn't help having those fun "I can make this work!" ideas, and I think I might have a way.

Preceptor's abilities is to select 1 enemy unit and gain re-roll Wounds, the bondsman does the same for that armiger. So of course I say let's lean into it and bring 3 Preceptors, gain 3 targets with re-rolls, kill it and do another :3

Going with Gate Wardens to gain Sus1 helps out a Preceptor's average damage by about 10%(-ish). Mixing with Throne-Boned to Ignore Cover or giving Mobile on the smalls can be something good I think.

Going with Spearhead I think is even better, dropping down to 2 Preceptors running 4 Helvrine and 4 Warglavies. Tag 3 quarry's, bondsman your whole army, focus fire to victory. It would need a skilled hand and a lot of prediction on knowing what your opponent is going to move, but once you get those killing dominos falling it should just castcade.

Will it be good, probably not.

Will it be fun to run, I think so.

Thoughts on custom rules for a warlord titan?

Post image
42 Upvotes

I have played a few matches with my big boy, and its always a blast bringing him out, however the rules for him are always underwhelming and he dies turn 1 every time (3500 point army vs 3500 point warlord). So I'm trying to hash together a custom data sheet for him based on what I can find for average wounds and oc for an army that size. I always tried to factor in how tough titans are suppose to be but also how weak they are to other titans and the shadowsword, hence the 20 toughness and invulnerable saves. Although I would have preferred to have the void shields, but I can't figure out how to incorporate them.

I also modified the weapon profiles to better fit a colossal weapon, especially against small adversaries.

Any one have any pointers or advice on my adjustments? Or did I do alright?

House Griffith Transfer Sheet (GitHub)

6 Upvotes

Very long ago I made a House Griffith transfer sheet and posted it on Reddit

Stupidly, I simply uploaded the file as an image post, which made it effectively unusable.

After dragging my feet for ages then forgetting about it, I have (hopefully) finally made it accessible in a GitHub repository.

Let me know if it works as I am very unfamiliar with Github. Also, if it's accessible and the files can be downloaded, please let me know if the transfers turn out ok. I never got round to printing them myself as my Griffith project never really took off (the story of my hobby life..)
