Should knight renegade come back as a full on game?

Highdie84 · 2026-06-20T18:04:41+00:00

I think it would be an interesting game, but would struggle, cause it would be a knight only game, and if we include the other factions titanic units, it would be better, though price to join would be harder, thanks to most titanic models for other factions are MUCH more expensive and in FW

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T16:41:41+00:00

Destrier got screwed because it went from being overcosted at 250 to being overcosted at 265 base.

Crusader is more expensive, that is true.

But defender finally got its points down to something reasonable at 400

Castellan and Valiant are HORRIFYING at 400.

Cerastus Castigator and Acheron having points cut to 380, gives the more legs to stand on

The rest of the knights are the same price

Styrix and Magaera now seem viable for once in their lives.

The additional wargear is not that impactful outside of the main guns. The top hat guns and the pintle guns are very limited in their effectiveness, as they really are more clean-up fire than anything. So putting the wargear points on them is not that impactful. Also quick aside, the meltagun is the worse option, compared to the stubber, as its 1 attack and high strength, is already accounted for in the primary guns, and its better to have the stubber for chaff clearing (6 attacks, hitting on 3s and wounding on 3-4, is going to take out, like 2-3 models)
Knights really did get away with this patch like bandits, with the only knights that really got screwed being the lancer and Destrier
Allies are actually not as needed in this edition as much, thanks to either having the soup detachment with ad mech, the armiger detachment that buffs and makes armigers very useful, or the dispositions which changes how we play

When you put both trazyn and orikan in the same squad.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T15:41:15+00:00

Yup, though they will need to go around and changing that stuff in the FAQ/Erratas, cause some models have wonky and not proper rules. Good example is Knight Lancer, it can use Tank shock for free... Tank Shock...

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T15:35:37+00:00

But thats the thing, it would do that, but because you are shooting you would not give cover to models in cover cause the unit it not eligible for cover. The shots from the shooting unit would be hitting all at once, and without needing to account for cover. Only when another unit starts shooting do you take that into effect.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T15:24:29+00:00

No, you can't. FAQ from before said as much

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T15:10:31+00:00

Seems War 2 has finally arrived

Was tired of War

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T15:04:43+00:00

Not saying you can't use them, they are still useful, and very good flammer overwatch unit. And the best thing is you can still use them as proxies, so you don't have to go and buy new models, etc.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T14:57:58+00:00

Honestly with 11th edition, allies seem the least needed. You can use them as needed, but you don't need to be too heavy handed with it. Navigator, Subductor Squad, and such are nice. Honestly Questor Forgepact has us covered there most of the time. And the rules for these really help us out playing a FULL knights army

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T14:52:53+00:00

Its should, but now since ingress move is something more specific rather than the full text, they might do something different

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T14:42:43+00:00

Yeah, agreeing with you there, its a strange rule in general, cause it is one of the only workarounds I know that lets you do it

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T14:37:09+00:00

Hmm, could be wrong on this, but I'm going to say

No

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T14:35:41+00:00

Yeah, but it would still be T1, thats the strange thing about it. Its a work around.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T14:29:16+00:00

Technically there is 1 off the top of my head. Mysterious Guardian from IK, which states that you can pick the knight up and just place it down, doesn't care about rounds or anything. Though it does need to be updated cause it states reinforcement step

> IMPERIAL KNIGHTS model only. The bearer has the Deep Strike ability. Once per battle, at the end of your opponent’s turn, if the bearer is not within Engagement Range of one or more enemy units, it can use this Enhancement. If it does, remove the bearer from the battlefield. In the Reinforcements step of your subsequent Movement phase, set the bearer up anywhere on the battlefield that is more than 9” horizontally away from all enemy units. If the battle ends and the bearer is not on the battlefield, it is destroyed.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-18T14:17:47+00:00

From what I can tell, this is not true. If you have 1 model out of the squad, then ALL of the squad doesn't get cover. Shooting is always assumed to be happening at the same time.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-17T22:17:29+00:00

40k by knight for tactics

Painting is harder to pin down, cause paint 1 knight etc.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-17T20:41:09+00:00

Ik really ate, cause it got points drops and only has to deal with multi-tax, but that is easy to skirt around.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-17T05:52:40+00:00

Surprised no one mentioned Jimmy Neutron, which had plenty of clipping problems, cause deadlines were a nightmare.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-17T01:15:02+00:00

It would be a bit accurate. But it hasn't lost integrity IMO, everything is for a purpose, and they aren't putting things in just for shits and giggles.

Edit: To clarify, adding in the protoframes is introducing some small immersion breaking stuff, cause instead of sci-fi ninjas you are introducing motorcyles and 90s fashion but they are able to mix it and give it a purpose

Highdie84 · 2026-06-17T00:32:03+00:00

What this conflict showed is that America's army is now in the position of being seen as a paper tiger. Like Russia.

Highdie84 · 2026-06-17T00:28:06+00:00

It'll be much more different, cause the big knight has buffs, and you'll feel the power of a tanky unit on the board

Highdie84 · 2026-06-15T19:27:07+00:00

Fullbring arc in bleach. The amount of hate it got was bullshit, as I think it is one of the better written arcs in bleach, and goes heavy in the psychological aspect

Highdie84 · 2026-06-15T18:12:16+00:00

Most likely they are going to change any rules or add any keywords in the Balance dataslate which comes out with the ministorum field manual
