Imperial Knights
0 boxes · 5 kits we track
Feudal nobles piloting enormous walking war machines - a whole army in three or four models.
Imperial Knights are the extreme end of collecting: towering household walkers with heraldry painted like a mediaeval shield, escorted by smaller Armigers. A complete force fits in one hand and one carry case. This is the army for someone who would rather paint one exceptional model than thirty adequate ones. Every Knight is a display piece with large armour panels crying out for freehand, transfers, chipping and metallic work, and you can genuinely finish an army without ever facing a batch. It is also the friendliest range for people short on hobby time, provided you are happy that each model will take weeks rather than an evening.
On the table: The ultimate low-model-count army: a handful of enormously durable, hard-hitting walkers with long reach and no bodies to spare.
