Imperial Knights

[Katharon]

There were half a dozen different types of Imperial Knights. Obviously the fellas at ForgeWorld are itching to make them all.

[DWest]

Are these Knights or Warjacks? I'm a little confused here.

If anything, they look like some of the more dubious designs from Battletech, with a similar sort of "stick X number of BFGs in there, and then build the rest of the mech in whatever space is left" design philosophy.

I think FW are doing a better job with knights than the parent company IMO, I like the designs a lot more - and it seems there will be more variety as well.

I agree. The options are great to have. At this rate, I'm only going to buy two knights from GW, and magnetize both of them, then get one of everything FW makes.

DWest hit it on the nose. Very Battletech-esque. In fact the one with the giant gun right above the head/cockpit looks a lot like a Legionnaire BattleMech. Only thing that may save GW is that they add that Grimdark flair to the designs.

"Why does my giant robot have a cathedral on the back? That's for the singing robot babies to pray in. What do you mean you don't have singing robot babies in your giant robot? What kind of giant robot is complete without the singing robot babies?"

But seriously, I take issue with GW needing "saving." Steal, you magnificent *******s, steal away. Steal everything. The only way to make great art is to steal the things that other people make, eat it, and then poop out your own version. I just wish GW would stop being such assnards about other people doing the same thing to their stuff...

Yes you are, very much so. Hint PP rtook inspiration from GW not the other way around.

GW just left the giant sholderpads in the 80s where they belong...
