Personally im a big fan of plasma weapons, I like the glowy bits id love to see it with the power sword from the castigator, itll be like a dark angel themed knight and itll look cool. Or maybe a destrier variant with plasma and power sword combo would be more likely.

I found a recast conversion kit online and am going to get it, even if its bad i like the cool armour panels, it looks like to me you run it into melee with the claw and use its ranged weapons into chaff due to its no ap which sucks but it looks like it hits a bunch with sustain 2 on 12 attacks, the claw seems like a great weapon. And it can heal itself in addition to freeblade heals so its tanky with 5 invuln and its bondsman is super great. Is its weapon ap its only downside and will that possibly change in the future?

My knight army lore is that its part of a rogue trader dynasty, they are a stalwart defender of the rogue traders planets and interests after a marriage pact between a knight house and the trader dynasty millennia ago, now they are mostly defending rogue trader themselves and their main planets. Anyways I wanted to kinda stick to my lore and put a rogue trader entourage/voidsman in my list, are they even worth trying to stick to the lore or are they useless on the tabletop?

This will be my 4th game of 40k ever and im fighting big bugs!! Any help in how to play will be most helpful.

Its my first time having this problem, I've bought a handful of items before and all had been delivered properly.

I bought some models ive been looking forward to getting and were half off msrp (650$) so I went ahead and purchased it since it was a pretty good deal. The seller messaged me saying while packing the models he had damaged them in the process and didnt feel good about selling it at the agreed upon asking price a d asked me to cancel and he will re list the un damaged models separately. I had asked for more details because if they werent damaged badly I was gonna fix them up without having to cancel, he told me to just go ahead and cancel the order so I put in a cancelation request, I got a new message a couple hours later denying my cancel request and he said he managed to fix them so that the damage was unnoticeable and asked if I was still interested, I said I was and he sent new photos of the models that he fixed and they looked great. He then said he will ship the package later that day. That was on the 14th of july and ever since then he hasn't responded to any of my questions regarding the shipping of the package. The final estimated delivery date is the 23rd and ebay and ups both say that they havent received the package but have a tracking number. I tried seeing if I can cancel/refund it and its telling me to wait til the estimated delivery has passed before I can do anything. Can someone who knows more shed some light on what I can do in this situation and how to go about it correctly.

2k point game, spearhead at arms, dominus foebreakers Detachment

my list at the moment is

Canis rex and sir hekhtur

Castellan with archeotech loaders

Knight crusader with rapid fire battle cannon and mentors pride enhancement

*knight destrier with both guns*

Warglaive

Warglaive

Helverin

I have 310 points left without the destrier, but since it wont have any enhancements would it be better to take something else like more armigers, assassins, or some other allied units to make up those points?

Currently we only have canis rex and sir hekhtur aka "The Chainbreaker" a legendary freeblade. What kind of epic hero would you like to see next if we ever get one? Personally I think a mechanicus dominus epic hero would be awesome, or a cerastus chassis that was recovered from a burial world in its time of need (like from space marine 2 with the sword of atreus) and now works with the inquisition would be interesting.

Power light keeps blinking 10 times then repeats, I couldnt find a reliable source through Google. From what I've googled I think its a fuse that blew On circuit board A? If anyone has any info or help it'd be greatly appreciated!!

Lgs has an escalation tournament coming up 1000, 1500, 2000 pt games

I only have knights so no allied forces like assassins and whatnot.

My Owned models

-1 dominus magnetized (valiant / castellan)

-1 questoris magnetized (everything but defender)

-1 destrier magnetized

-6 armigers magnetized

I do plan on getting a 2nd questoris and maybe a cerastus model but that wont be for a while

I had this list idea.

1000pt(975)

Valourstrike lance

Canis rex

2 warglaive

2 helverin

1500pt(1500)

Valourstrike lance

Canis rex

3 warglaives

Castellen

Destrier

2000pts(1980)

Freeblades

Canis rex

Castellan-mysterious guardian

Destrier-hunters eye

3 warglaive

3 helverin

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

First, I've been slowly collecting a knight army since I like giant robots and mechs, but ive never played 40k before(ive played killteam a couple of times) do any of you guys have any video and or thread recommendations for me to look at both in general play and knight play.

Second, my army so far is 6 armigers(3 warglaives, 3 helverins), 1 dominus(still building), and canis rex(still in box). Should I get a destrier or a second questoris and would it be possible to get just the questoris body since i have the other sprues?

Thirdly, I like the freeblade lore so I was thinking about painting all my models a different color. Has anyone done this before and had it look good? Would it be better to paint them all the same? Or maybe have different lances be different colours? Opinions?

Forthly, my lgs is doing a escalation event next month starts at 1000 and goes to 1500 then 2000 points, what would be a good list for each match

Lastly, got any information you would give to a new player to help them out, painting tips, gameplay tips, etc..

Thank you all!!!
