Imperial Knights, where are the Characters?

[JMichael]

I was surprised that none of the Knight characters were included in the new Codex.
I do have the WD with Gerantius and do recall another named Knight published somewhere.
Anyway, where are the cool named Knights?

[Houghten]

The other one's the Obsidian Knight, but good luck getting hold of a copy of Warzone Damocles.

Maybe we'll see more in further White Dwarves?

Booo

Thanks for the reply.

[Badtucker]

Gerantius .... can still play him. Rules easy to get hold off. Also he's still kick *** rules wise.

[Mr Mystery]

All knights are characters.

No chaff in our ranks m'lord!

heh, sadly only Gerantius, the Obsidian Knight and the Lord Baron are actually Characters.

Can Super-Heavy Characters issue challenges? Can Gargantuan Creature Characters as well?

[Mr Mystery]

I was meaning background wise :p

Actually if you plan the exalted court formation EVERY knight becomes a character. In the baronial court formation and Household Detachment the lord commander becomes a character.

So yeah...they can issue challenges. ^_^

[Badtucker]

Obsidian Knight, if im right - he can only be used in apoc games :(

[Mr Mystery]

And the Exalted Court seems to extend to Forgeworld's offerings....such as my Styrix and Magaera....

Mmmmmm. Exotic Dakkas.

character knights would be entertaining against unit champions that have to issue challenges. Imagine a cultist leader issuing a challenge to an imperial knight...

[Mr Mystery]

'Stupid Heretic, YOU GO SQUISH NOW!'

Little splutchy pancakes everywhere.....

[Kirsten]

come at me bro...

14020

[Mr Mystery]

Or perhaps comedy toe punted into the sunset.

[Kirsten]

sounds like an excellent Duel diorama to me...

[Mr Mystery]

Can you still Stomp the unit if you've been in a challenge that phase?

Also......where's me Plasma Knights???

[Kirsten]

no idea off the top of my head

[Mr Mystery]

Should probably just grab me rule book. But it's like, way over there. Two steps away.

[Kirsten]

I have my Kindle with me I could check, but I don't want to.

[Mr Mystery]

Wounds in the challenge carry over...that's pretty nice.
