GW is releasing a new boxed game that includes two of their Imperial Knights, which are mini-Titans for $195. USD Plus it comes with a game and some scenery. I'm not super interested in the massive things as my 40K gaming will probably never use 1 much less 2 of these. One never knows, of course. Still I wonder how the game is going to be. If it is something that has an interesting match off between two titans it might be interesting for other forms of massive mech combat. Possibly even for skirmish gaming in general and it might be good for having two power armoured Space Marines go toe-to-toe depending on how detailed it is. Given that the normal price of the titans are $140 USD each, this is a pretty good deal. Probably the scenery is worth about $30 USD or so too. If you are in the market for some Imperial Titans this one is a no brainer. link |

Only $195 USD? Pass……… I want exclusivity that a $500 USD+ price tag brings. AND, if you believe that, I have a bridge for sale too. |

Even without the rules getting 2 Imperial Knights for under $200 USD is a bargain. Too bad I didn't wait long enough to take advantage of this great deal. I got all the Knights I'll ever need with 6. |

It really is a great deal. The Dreamforge titans are about $95 USD each and this comes with terrain. Like I said, I'm not that interested in the titans but I'll probably buy a copy of the rules when they come up on ebay. |

Mmm from the GW site eight-page booklet containing rules and missions for the game, and rules for deploying the Renegade Knight in games of Warhammer 40,000! Don't think the rules are going to be up to much. Decent enough deal if you want knights I guess |

It's like 1988 all over again only in 28mm and not 6mm
I've always wanted to play Adeptus Titanticus in 28mm. Where's my Forgeworld Warlord Titan! |

Heck, I own several Knights(really enjoy building and painting them), and I am getting this for all of the above positive reasons. Add to that the fact that I've had a hankering to convert a chaos one. Ordered from Neal for a price break… Told my main gaming buddy I may just do mech battles for a while. |

Hmm… Wouldn't a 28mm Knight be about the right size for a 15mm Titan…? |
Pictors Studio | 17 Apr 2016 8:52 a.m. PST |
It should be. There you go, two 15mm Titans for less than $200. USD If you are getting them and don't want the terrain or the rules let me know. |
Capt Flash | 17 Apr 2016 9:23 a.m. PST |
Yes they are perfect for Titans in 15s. I can't wait to get my setup cleared for some of those games |

I wasn't in the market for Knights, but I do love some big stompy robots. The rules look like they have hit locations, so they might be interesting. I don't think I'll preorder, but if the rules get a good review, I think I'll pick it up. |
Capt Flash | 18 Apr 2016 6:44 p.m. PST |
@ The Gonk- the only concern is that it may go out of stock rather quickly. Where did you see about the hit locations? I've not seen anything… |
Bob Runnicles | 19 Apr 2016 8:31 a.m. PST |
Several screenshots from the game show hit location charts for the two mechs similar to the ones we used to see in Epic. |

That sounds even better then. Looking forward to this one even more now. |
