So to answer a few questions some of you may or may not have asked:

– AFAIK the game is not restricted to English.
– The two Knights in the story are the Ever-Stalwart of House Terryn (Battle Cannon, Reaper Chainsword, Icarus Autocannon, Heavy Stubbers) and the Litany of Destruction (Reaper Chainsword, Thunderstrike Gauntlet, Ironstorm Missile Pod, Heavy Stubber).
– There are only two big cards, one for each of these knights setups. But there are references to play with other weapons setups.
– Game includes a Datasheet to play a Renegade Knight in 40K, but there is only one sheet so I hope they’re not restricted to the CC version.
– Also includes a detachment to ally Knights to CSM and Chaos Daemons.
– 8 pages of rules including the 40K ones if I got it right.

It didn’t notice anything special regarding availability.

There are no rules in the next WD (besides a new unrelated BaC scenario), so far it’s all in the box.

No Orruks in the next WD.

New boxed game called “Imperial Knight: Renegade” instead (1 Imperial Knight, 1 IK Warden and 1 Sanctum Imperialis + rules)
165€ / £120 / $195 / and for once the real prices for all to see: CA$ 235 / AU$ 245 / NZ$ 290 / 22.000 Yen

So both a huge price but a huge discount at the same time, making it a pretty solid choice if you want 2 Knights. Too bad the large difference between the UK and Euro price will make us incapable of competing vs UK retailers.

Game is derived from the minigame they did in the WD around the Stormsurge release if I remember correctly, the one were each superheavy had its own datasheet, with damage locations and numbers everywhere. Game includes specific decals for each knight allowing you to decorate one of them as a renegade Knight. No Chaos specific sprues thought (those are the regular models already sold in stores).

Same "must buy" as calth.
Probably the same treatment. Used the models never unpacked the game.

great value set, got mine ordered

the boxed game rules haven't interested me previously either, but this one might be good. some duelling knights could be really awesome with a decent system. especially if you can scale it up, have 2v2 or 3v3 knight battles.

And here's the datasheet for the Renegade Knight in 40k.

Actually more options than an Imperial Knight.

[Kirsten]

option to take two aveger gatling guns is pretty awesome

[Mr Mystery]

It can dual up any of the ranged dakka arms - Imperials can't do that.

That's potentially 4 Battlecannon shots a turn.

[Charon]

Will share it with a friend, get it from my retailer at another -25% dicount and will probably sell off the terrain. Not really interested in the game but the contents are great value.

Gotta say that those gun upgrade points costs are pretty whack.

50pts for another battlecannon? *whistles*

[Kirsten]

yeah but if you fire four battle cannon rounds a turn you can make quite a mess of just about anything

Indeed - but is it 50pts more of a mess than the arm weapon its replacing?

Thats the question

For someone who always wants to include more models in his army - thats a tough sell to someone like me.
