Imperial Knights

[Patrick Boyle]

I'm starting to wonder what the difference is between a "codex" and a "data slate". Same thing just one is a hard copy and the other a soft copy?

Dataslates can't be run by themselves; they either a unit to a codex(there's the Cypher Dataslate that added Cypher as an HQ choice for the armies he's available for, Belakor likewise, etc.), or represent Formations that can be slotted in, independent of force org or allies slots(All of the Christmas things, the Tyranid Leviathan Rising dataslate series, etc.).

Codexes are still Codexes; An army list with a Force Org chart that can act as a Primary Detachment, or an allied detachment(or in the special case of the Inquisition Codex, there's the special Inquisition allied detachment).

They're very, very different things.

First "weekly" release to not have any plastic kits alongside it...interesting. Also the first codex (at least printed?) to be dedicated to a single plastic kit. Who would of guessed that?

[ElectricPaladin]

Oh man... $74 is a lot, but I really want that Companion...

[The Imperial Fist]

It really is just for the two models, that's just bad. After releasing the rules in WD too. I wonder how many will actually sell in comparison to the Knight kits themselves.

[Tomgar]

Yeah, I'm just going to flip through to see if there are any differences with the WD rules. If there aren't, there's no way I'm spending £25 on Codex when I could spend it on some nice new Wood Elves...

[Deadlift]

Well I've just ordered all 3 books in the "collection"

Super excited too.

[Tomgar]

Just noticed the Assembly video is unlisted and you an only view it if you have the link... Possibly a stupid question but would anyone know why that is? Seems kind of stupid to make it that hard to find your video.

same reason they deactivated comments maybe? afraid of their community?

It's such a nice, useful video though! Once I track down the other 3, I'll definitely being using them to help assemble my Knight.
