Taking a Knight


Herald of Magnus

Recommended Posts

How do knights work in 30k? Do you have to take an allied detachment of two, with one as hq and one as troop. Or can you just add one to your army as a lord of war choice like in 40k? I can't find any rules or anything for this in 30k, I'm playing against 40k armies so would it be fair just to mix the 40k codex of knights being used in my army that way?

Oh that sucks, so there's no way to just take one then, only two as allies. That's a great shame as I want my knight to see play, I do have another but won't have time to build it. Would it be too cheesy to use the one from the Knights codex in my army as a LoW choice considering we already play a mix of 30k and 40k rules to make our games work or?

Nope.

 

1.)  Like it has been said Knights can be taken as an allied detachment, thus you need at least 2 and they gain access to Household Ranks.

 

2.)  Knights can be taken as a LoW choice as detailed on page 9 of the most recent Legion Army List ('Red Book'), left column, read under 'War Machine Detachment'.

Oh they can be taken as a lord of war choice for an army then! That's pretty sweet! Though now I have to decide between whether I want one of them or 2 Contemptors with kheres assault cannons instead! Dammit! 

 

The other thing is if taken in the primary detachment with Ferrus would they get the bonuses from it will not die and blessed autosimulcra?

I really should check the book better before I quote this stuff! I've just seen where it had all the rules for them, yes, you're right! Though even without rites of war it could still be used with Ferrus for the IWND and blessed rule because that's an iron hands rule, not a rite of war based one? Sorry, still unsure of all these things!

Answered this in the IH tactica, but LoW is not a slot, its a detachment much like an allied detachment, Ferrus Manus only affects the Primary Detachment so long story short no 5+ IWND for Lords of War with Ferrus Manus in the army.
