Finally some Anti-Air for Knights (possibly)

- Crusader is armed with: Quake Cannon, TL Las-cannons
- Warden is armed with: Volcano Cannon, Multi-barreled Autocannon
- Both models have an optional top carapace missile launcher weapon mount, with multishot S8, AP3 anti-flyer capability
- Both models are protected by a single energy field based heavily on the rules for the Stronghold Assault book’s Void Shield Generator.
- Armor Values: Front:14 Side:13 Rear:13

- Both models clock in well above the cost of the Knight Paladin/Errant

Was scouring last night and both quake and volcano cannon have rules already-

····Quake Cannon: Range:24-180|Strength:9|AP:3|Typerimary Weapon 1, 10" Blast

····Volcano Cannon: Range:180|Strength|AP:2|Typerimary Weapon 1, 7" Blast, Destroyer Weapon

Load outs not off reliable sources so far, so take with salt the BoLS ones.....

10" blast
7" blast SD

Well new Knights confirmed, teaser up on on GW site-

3 new variants shown:

First has a D strength chainsaw from the prior 2 knights, but a new fist on the other arm and what appears to be a missile launcher on the top of it's chassis.

Second has the battle cannon and what appears to be a chaingun on the other arm, and what looks to be an AA gun mounted on the top of the chassis.

Third has the chaingun arm same as the second, and the new fist and chassis missile launcher from the first.

If you freeze-frame perfectly between the transition from the "old" knight to the new first variant, the new one appears taller, but GW just offset the silhouette slightly. The pauldrons, chassic and legs all appear to be identical. So yes, this is either a separate upgrade sprue or, more likely, a rebox with 1 sprue swapped out as in the current box, all of the weapons are on a single sprue.

So looks to be either a upgrade sprue or my money is on a rebox adding a weapon sprue with price hike.

This has just been posted as well-

From the HH-Forum:

ok got some rules glimpses.
the gatling cannon is 36" str6 ap3 heavy12, rending

missile launcher has two versions

ironstorm: 72" str5 ap4 heavy1,large blast, barrage
stormspear: 48" str8 ap3 heavy3

the weapons profile also lists a twinlinked icarus autocannon (could be the other carapace mounted option seen in the silhouettes)

the fist is bloody funny.
strD AP2, and strikes at I1. but if it kills a vehicle or monstrous creature then it can throw the corpse at an enemy unit, damage caused is effected by the stats of what's being thrown.

Lol what at the powerfist.......

[Dedwoods42]

That Power Fist is AWESOME

[manrogue]

I really want to get one with a power fist and throw a landraider at something..... lol
