Mechanicum Specific Knights

Forge World are considering releasing Mechanicum specific Questoris and Cerastus Knights. We think this is a great idea as is distinguishes between Imperial and Mechanicum styles. Rob Macfarlene really wants to do this.

Here are some pics:




What do you guys all think? Comment below!

  1. Big thumbs up for this.

    More knights is always a good thing. And distinguishing between mechanicus and knightly houses sounds a great idea.

  2. And really easy to do by changing just a few plates and the head!

  3. Very interesting indeed, dedicated mechanicum knights would be cool.

  4. Malinax will be my traitors house. Loyalists will be Vyronii. Now I only need transfers for both, and mechanicus upgrades for Malinax :)

  5. It's exactly what Mark Bedford said to me when we were chatting :)

    1. Yeah, he did the knight above to prove the point. I think he's now leading the charge with Blake. Sound like him and Blake are trying to get an admech version of the new heavy knight too!

  6. Always loved this idea... All the knights should be basic skeletons and you purchase the armour, heads and weapons separately, to custom build your knight... Whether Household or Mechanicum. This should also be done for the Questoris size knights too. Also more armour and weapons for the GW knights, alternate chest, shoulder, and leg armour, and new weapons

    1. I asked mark Bedford and he said it would cost too much (for us). Better to have seperate codes!

  7. Awesome painting, but model is ugly as hell...

  8. Anything that helps Knights look more distinct from each other is great in my book.

    My only real complaint is Mechanicum Knights don't seem to have any way to show off the throne inside, which means you might as well not include it.

    I wish they'd do a throne upgrade for the Questoris chassis, too. Do we know yet if the Acastus chassis gets a throne? I do so love modeling my Scions.

  9. I already have 8 knights....so I guess I will have to make it to 10 at least. Hell yes my mechanicum would love this.

  10. I have 23 soon to be my 24th, a castigator. my question is are they going to do armour kits so I can make my knights I have now into mechanicus knights. My Knight house is mechanicus aligned.

  11. Ok that would totally have me getting the other Mechanicum Cerastus knights. I was only going to get the Atrapos but with those cool new heads and mechanicum armour...
