Needs more Giant Chainaxe.......

[Kim Sandberg]

Thats one good teaser, best one so far.

[Corvus-Master-of-The-4th]

A direct reference to House Taranis! That's awesome (they are the Knight House identified in the HH book Mechanicum)... More Taranis fluff incoming?

[Tyrendian]

guess so... curious about what they did to them, especially how they made them survive, what with only two surviving Mounts walking aimlessly around near Noctis Labyrinthus while all of Mars went fubar...

don't trust the 40k wiki

For reals. The Deathwatch origin has been wrong on there for years and no one wants to get it changed

[eldargal]

Not to mention GW could just sodding change it. I mean who gives a **** really? Knights are cool, they can now make 40k scale knights, so we get more knights. Retcon it or say they rediscovered some STC bits and peices to aid in their fabrication, whatever.

And define 'rare'.

They were used on Imperial equivalent Exodite worlds.

Marines are probably the rarest of the rare, number somewhere near 1,000,000 in the entire galaxy, yet we see plenty of them on our boards.

[eldargal]

A good point. Even if there are only 100,000 Knights left in the Imperium why would it be unreasonable to see six of them on a battlefield when we could see fifty Marines out of one million?

I'd be curious how many Marine models GW has sold over the years, and to compare that to the number supposedly in existence...
I'd assume the casualty rate "on the battlefield" might equal the rate of minis getting broken or dusting in some box somewhere
