Come see the latest information this morning about the Knight titan game that looks to be a HUGE deal on some of the most expensive kits out there!

Looks like there may just be ONE BIG release coming next week, and at a savings of almost 40% to buying the box sets components seperately .

Imperial Knights: Renegade
Mini game dervied from a White Dwarf minigame for the stormsurge.
Box contains scenery and two full knight warden kits.
Quote from the “Warhammer Forum” –
“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 two datasheets, one for each of these knights 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.”
US $195

Plus we got a little more information today on the game from Archibald_TK who revealed the new game yesteday:

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.

From the formatting I would say it looks to be from GW trade sales, but I have no way to be sure.

 

Well there you have it. I mean at a discount of 40% off WHY NOT buy it? I mean two knights themselves normally run $150 each almost! Solid deal and a game out of it to boot, I think we have a winner!

It’s only crazy if it doesn’t sell…
