The walking Baneblades are here! Come see the latest pics that were just spotted for the dual Valiant and Castellan Imperial Knight kit that look to be packing some serious heat.
Imperial Knights 2018 Release
We already know there are GIANT FREAKING ROBOTS on the way with their very own codex from the announcement at Adepticon this year.
Knight Castellan
Rumors:
Scanner has been hinting there may be a lot more meat to the Imperial Knights codex that people have been expecting. However, these are just rumors of what may be on the way rules-wise for the Imperial Knights in 8th Edition:
-
Dual Dominus Class model kit is bigger than existing Knight.
-
Codex fixes two problems with the Armiger
-
9 houses for the knights
-
New Knight House Rules Rumors
-
Knight Points Change Rumors
-

These were just spotted on imgur, and are already making the rounds.
Apparently the new dual kit will be bigger than the Knights we know now. From the hip joints, the positioning of the legs, and the forced perspective of these two knights it looks like the Valiant is indeed bigger than the Errant behind it.
Is this the flame arm from the rumors we heard last week?
Ouch. if the rumors are true this harpoon packs a wallop with 10 damage
3+ improvable both INV & regular save, 28 wounds, T8 you can field 3 of these in an 1850 army (barely).
If this pans out to be true that’s a pretty HUGE rollout of the new Castellan kit. Wow, a walking Baneblade, who’s in on this one?
No “official” word on the release date for Imperial Knights, however, we know the new Rogue Trader box is on the horizon, as well as Age of Sigmar 2.0 for June. Sources have told us the Knight Codex will drop by the middle of June.
