Acastus Pattern Knight
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Knight Porphyrion, a type of Acastus Pattern Knight
Acastus Pattern Knights are a class of Imperial Knight. These enormous Knights rival Warhound Titans in both size and firepower.[1]
History
Perhaps the largest and mostly heavily armed type of Knight, few Houses were able to muster large amounts of these suits at even the height of the Great Crusade. They were viewed as symbols of the Omnissiah's favor by the Mechanicum and such is their power that can even rival a smaller Titan in battle.[2]
