librisrouge Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 So, I'm getting a Titan, and, in the spirit of giant doom bringing warbots, I want to field him with my knights from time to time, and I hate going unbound. Does this mean that I'll always be taking an IG CAD for the LoW slot, and then allying in Knights? Is there anyway to take a Warhound and IKnights together by themselves? The only way I can find is the 30k Questoris list but that means 3,000 points minimum and the list being accepted. Don't get me wrong, it sounds fun as hell, but I don't think that'll happen very much. Anybody know any other way to field these two together?

BassWave Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Dont skitarii get a lord of war slot? Minimum requirement for a skitarii detachment is two 5 man squads for a total of 110.

CommodusXIII Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 A Household Detachment is 3 LoW required, 2 LoW optional. I don't have my Codex handy - can someone check to see if this specifies that the LoWs must be Imperial Knights?

Lucien Eilam Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 can someone check to see if this specifies that the LoWs must be Imperial Knights? Yes, of course it does. Nice try though. I hate going unbound. If you're using one of the Formations (Baronial Court, etc.), being Unbound makes no difference to your army at all.

Nostramar Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Neither Skitarii nor Cult Mechanics get a Lord of War slot with their standard detatchments, a shame really.

CommodusXIII Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 It was worth a shot! Lucien makes an excellent point - you can go Unbound with a Baronial or Exalted Court and have no loss in benefits. Unbound has a bad stigma attached to it, but I think that this is the kind of situation it was meant for.

Jolemai Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Not aware of a Knights and Warhound Formation yet, but the Blood Oath Campaign book has a Knights and Reaver/Warlord Formation.

That doesn't even make sense. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313212-knights-and-titans-question/#findComment-4162827 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Bjoern Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Play Skitarii as your primary detachment and 1-3 Knights as you allied detachment.

librisrouge Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 It looks like Skitarri might just tempt me into a few squads (curses!!) but two vets and a CCS with minimal upgrades aren't much more so I'll still probably stick to the Emperor's Hammer. Of course, for purely fun games (because Warhound = FUN!!!) I can go with unbound. My FLGS banned it for events and few players around here will play against it, which I kinda get because every time they allow it 'that guy'tm plays really messed up lists; not that those lists aren't 99% legal anyway.

jeffersonian000 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I've actually never seen a "messed up" unbound list. Most unbound lists I seen have been either theoretical or underperforming. All of the "messed up" lists I've seen so far have been 100% Battle Forged.

Leman Russ SW Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Why not take Mecanicum in CAD they can take the Titan as a Lord of War and ally a knight formation.
