Imperial Knights komen er aan!

My FLGS had a copy of the Imperial Knights WD drop in from the warp. Had the stats for the Knight Paladin and Knight Errant inside.


(Superheavy walkers, not MCs, which is kind of a relief considering I've had enough MCs for a fething lifetime. Yes, this means they get Stomp, Hammer of Wrath, and all that bull.)


Paladin: 375 cost, Errant is 370. Both are AV13 front armor and 6 HP, with a 4+ invul on one facing that you choose during opponent's Shooting (but not CC or overwatch). WS, BS and I4, A3 with a strength D chainsword. Paladin is armed with a 2-shot battle cannon, and Errant has a S9 36" large blast melta. Hilariously, the Errant has a single heavy stubber, while the Paladin has 2(!!).


So, the LGS owner did a crazy thing and proxied 5 of them using Riptides against a CSM player. Promptly proceeded to murder all 9 deep-striking oblits, all the cultists, and the suicide terminator squad (Let it be said, the ability to position the deflector shield *after* movement is finished is pretty damn powerful...). Only lost because of the Chaos Spawn and HQ hid on the second level of a ruin, and the 2 Heldrakes having ridiculously good luck on their Vector Strike rolls."
