Imperial Knights

[ElectricPaladin]

Very interesting... I love it when my random guesses are verified!

It looks like I won't be able to make a lancer or a castellan/warden with my magnetized knight kit, but that's ok... some variety makes the "army" more attractive as a long-term project.

So, is this ''Full kits'' or is it ''uppgrade'' kits?

[DWest]

I'm guessing for the Crusader/Castellian, it'll be a plastic/resin hybrid, sold as a full kit. You'd get frames 1 and 3 of the current kit (in the order on the GW site) + the resin pieces. The Lancer sounds like it would be a completely scratch resin kit, based on the reversed legs and (presumably?) slimmer hull.

[Mr Mystery]

That's the Lancer.

And it's considerably taller than a Paladin!

[The Emperor]

Yeah, I'd love to see how it stacks up next to the Wraithknight.

[Darren Richardson]

I should have made it clearer, on the photo from that game display their are Two Knights Both Armed Differently....

Which = two varients

[Houghten]

Uh, two things. Firstly, I don't care what GW's rules-writing department thinks, changing the weapons does not equal a different variant. Upgrading a Razorback's heavy bolter to a lascannon doesn't make it a different vehicle. Secondly, the two Knights in that picture are both Lancers and both armed with a lance and shield - they just have them on opposite arms.

[The Emperor]

There's a little more going on here than just a weapon change, though.
