But the Melta one does need magnets or glue to hold it on.

So you could basically switch between errant and paladin at will with just one box of knight?

My LGS also ran out real fast, but looking at the models and book, it's just an awesome release - and I personally have never been into mecha, so that's saying a lot. From a tactics point of view, I don't think it's overpowered at all. I can see armies like Eldar, IG (especially mech and AirCav) and Necrons easily overwhelming an army of these beasts, though at huge cost. It will make for some awesome hobbying and gaming!spunkybasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00854729157258095368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3830414113837067378.post-57589128681342559092014-03-10T17:31:57.472-07:002014-03-10T17:31:57.472-07:00Dark eldar flyers will do fine, vendettas, both st...Dark eldar flyers will do fine, vendettas, both storm talons and ravens will hurt them, necrons.

Except Eldar flyers as they have huge Anti Tank capabilities and more importantly are agile so get 2 pivots. So they can harass the knights for longer. I guess time will tell the weakness of knights over all though.

At most levels you are going to take at most 5, so thats 20% effectiveness removed with each loss. Oh it will be tough, but if you play hard to get and force them to move either through or around terrain you can do it. Plus any amount of flyers will give them torubleGrumpy Guardsmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17589097813598490581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3830414113837067378.post-20299178738785592242014-03-10T14:55:47.244-07:002014-03-10T14:55:47.244-07:00I can see it being hard to kill if its an army of ...I can see it being hard to kill if its an army of them but alone it shouldnt be too difficult.

Its only 6 Hps, with the Explodes result cause D3 additional hull point damage. Two good explodes can bring this down. <br /><br />How I see it, don't go for the one shot. take it down over a few turns. Lascannons will do just fine against it. Manuever is important though, as with the Ion sheild only having one facing, you need to get shots from multiple angles. <br /><br />Also it moves just as slow as infantry in cover, so use that to your advantage to buy you a few turns. Once it gets into combat, then its beast to kill.Grumpy Guardsmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17589097813598490581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3830414113837067378.post-6054428136083542012014-03-10T13:04:01.622-07:002014-03-10T13:04:01.622-07:00Gulp, that sounds terrifying, i have a hard enough...Gulp, that sounds terrifying, i have a hard enough time dealing with flyers, i have no idea how to face these thingsRunicmadhamsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16998940858801320118noreply@blogger.com
