Hi Everyone, I've been using the Knights in four games so far against Orks, Tau, Imperial Guard, and Chaos Daemons, and I have won all four games. What have been other Knights players success rates been, and have any armies proved troublesome?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Define "using"? Using as in 1500pts, 4 knights...or using as in playing a knight with my space marine army?

Using in any capacity, whether in a primary detachment or as an allied detachment. For example, I use them as a primary detachment with space marine allies.

well, today in my local GW we basically had a little Knight Honour Tournament - free for all with points awarded for damage done. I... kinda... lost... didn't get a single point... failed a four inch charge... :D

Haven't used them myself, but a friend did against a pretty standard Tau army and it died first turn without even firing a shot. I don't find them the be-all, end-all of 40K IMO. Fairly tough, but they don't dump out nearly their points worth in damage from what I have seen. JMO though...

All depends on the list facing you. If you end up against some Farsight List with Missilespam or some CronAir list, most likely the Knights are going to have a had time. That being said, I think they are a great success and look forward to starting an army of my own and adding them to my collection.

I have no problem sweeping a Lord of War off the table with just 1 small squad of Nob bikers, I laugh at all Knights I face. No river dancing for you!

Faced one for the first time yesterday allied to grey knights with my flying circus. I came in intimidated but it didn't do anything and I killed it on turn three with a puppet master onto a psydread.
