Giant Isopod posted:I was looking into knights as well, and as far as I understand it the base knight variants (ie, not the forge world ones with the faux latin names) have the same basic chassis, so you can run it as any of them if you swap the weapons. However, the smaller kits don't necessarily come with all the options so you'd have to get the extra parts somehow. Is this correct? There's a Knight Warden/Crusader/Gallant box and a Knight Paladin/Errant box. IIRC the only differences are the weapon loadouts.

I wish GW would just cut the foreplay and make Primaris Marines the Real Marines. I have a bunch of Mark IV kits and I just can't bring myself to build them because truescale looks so much better.

GW's latest top 5 is out and this time it's about 'Rivalries' https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/09/08/celebrate-30-years-of-warhammer-40000-top-5-rivals-sep-8gw-homepage-post-3/ It's just proving how little current GW cares about non-Marine/Chaos Marine factions when your top 5 are:
Literally all of them involve Chaos, and only two aren't Space Marines. And one of those are the Inquisition. What a load of poo poo, where are the actual good rivalries like Ghazghkull vs Yarrick etc. I also dispute the term 'Rivals' here, more like 'Bitter Enemies'.

The Sex Cannon posted:best knight is dual gatling knight Yes, yes it is. My one and only complaint about the Chaos Knight kit from Forgeworld is that it doesn't have resin gun shields for the gatling cannons. Which means having to take two knights, one FW Chaos, and the other a more vanilla looking renegade. No other option for it. You can't not, can you? You know it makes sense.

How does a Primaris-only army kill horde armies? 4x Assault Cannon tarantulas? Is there a non-Forgeworld solution? Comedy Leviathan Dreadnought with dual gravity bombard option.

Artum posted:Thermal cannon, it can and will wipe out a terminator squad. Doesn't it only get D6 shots? I feel like you'd do better against terminators with 2d6 shots when statistically any one of those shots still kills a terminator.

Artum posted:Thermal cannon, it can and will wipe out a terminator squad. Blast weapons suck in 8th. Just take the gatling gun and be happy with the consistency. The rapid-fire battlecannon is almost there with 2d6 shots as that helps cut out some uncertainty, but it's still not enough for my tastes.

Safety Factor posted:With d3 shots? Or even d6 against units of 5 or more? And with invulnerable saves on top of that? Not happening. As weird as it sounds, I've started picturing battle cannons as being rapid fire weapons like autocannons and the current rules make a lot more sense. That rapid fire battlecannon is a pretty solid anti-tank gun these days.

So, if I were to pick up one of these I'd be able to build any of the 5 regular (non-FW) Knights or a (non-FW) Renegade Knight, right? https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Renegade-Knight-2016 Seems to be just a Warden box + a transfer, and the Warden has all the bits required for any of the load-outs? Tempted to pick up a Knight for my Emperor's Children and/or my Sisters of Battle. . . .

Yeah, this will build any of the imperial variants. The only downside is that it's designed for the Imperial loadouts, not Chaos, so you won't be able to do the Coolest Knight, which is dual gatling guns.

So, I'm checking the Indexes, basically, the "best" load-out is an Avenger Gatling Cannon + Heavy Flamer on each arm, which Chaos *can* do, but none of the five "standard" Imperial load-outs allows, which means that the Knight Warden kit only comes with one Gatling cannon so I need to find a second one somewhere else. Also, the Knight is a model made for heavy magnetizing (like the Baneblade,) unless you feel like dropping $800+ to field the different variants, right?

I really haven't used any SM weapons to know which are effective so I often just make it so I can swap everything out. Did your main body panels line up right? The front quarter panel on mine had a gap so large I had to fill it with GS.

I'm a big dumb idiot so I didn't magnetize mine, but I went with the gatling and battle cannons, with the three-shot krak missile carapace weapon. It fairly loving shreds.

Yeah, I only discovered magnets when I started playing Warmachine, then I came back to 40k and looked at a bunch of my models and though "gently caress, so many wasted magnetizing opportunities."  Looking at the load-out options for a knight, I'd definitely say at least *one* Gatling, and that "Stormspear" thing (I guess that's the Krak Missile launcher.) It looks like there's really no need for any of the Melee options as the guns are so powerful, and if anything gets into close combat you can stomp on them and then moonwalk band shoot them. I guess the chainsword the size of a tank is *cool* though.
