Aelorthus Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Is there any precedent in the fluff out there for GK using Imperial Knights as allies? Would they use them from a fluff perspective, and would an imperial knight swear fealty to the GK and would the GK trust/accept it??

jeffersonian000 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Knights tend to be allied with Forge Worlds, and Titan has its own pet Forge Workd in the form of the moon Demos. Also, the Psi-Titan Legion is based most likely on Demos.

treadhead Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Mine have an Errant and I'm working on a Crusader for fire support As for fluff I'm going with freeblades who swore service to the fellow knights who aided them.

jeffersonian000 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 My Errant is painted silver with gold trim, and is covered in =][= iconography, and it's name is Roflstomp. Because I can.

Aelorthus Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 I was thinking of a Knight Crusader for the massive fire support, or a Warden for the Avenger Gatling Cannon :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313284-imperial-knights-as-allies/#findComment-4164380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelorthus Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 I have a fuffy idea: A House Hawkshroud Knight, Oathsworn to the Inquisition working with the Grey Knights.

Aelorthus Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 On a knight crusader the the avenger gatling cannon best paired with a thermal cannon or a rapid-fire battle cannon?

raverrn Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The battlecannon is better in 90% of combat situations. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313284-imperial-knights-as-allies/#findComment-4350940 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffersonian000 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The Crusader benefits from the Battlecannon, but is also better off in a War Convocation than paired with an NSF.

duz_ Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Personally I find the warden and errant the better two options generally But that comes from a guard perspective as I have other options for S8/Ap3 lg blast I think that's still the case with GKs though Wardens are excellent MEQ killers and anti air thanks to high volume of shots and high strength Also the errant provides S9 AP1 lg blast melta Both of which GKs can benefit from Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313284-imperial-knights-as-allies/#findComment-4351273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
treadhead Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I've been running either an errant (melta and fist) or a crusader (melta and gatling) in a few games now and the melta is great for gk, but of the two I tend to go for the crusader most of the time It's really nice to have something that distracts opponents from my gk units and hurts heavy vehicles in the list (the throwing model rules from the fist can be quite amusing at times though ) should be doing a larger points game some time in the near future where I can run both at the same time Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313284-imperial-knights-as-allies/#findComment-4351576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
