Knight Errant

Knight Errants are a common type of Imperial Knight walker. These walkers lead the charge of Knight Houses when they go to war. These aggressive Knights prefer to fight at the forefront of battle, hunting enemy tanks ande war engines or charging into the fray. Where a Knight Paladin is equipped for a flexible battlefield role, a Knight Errant specializes in close range actions in which it can use its formidable thermal cannon to devastating effect. Countless times have heretics, believing themselves safe within their fortified strongholds, watched in horror as the walls around them have melted and sloughed away to reveal a Knight Errant ready to butcher them in their own sanctuary.[1]

In the heat of battle, where a normal warrior tires as the exertions of combat take their inevitable toll, a Knight is as relentless as the tide: an unstoppable engine of death. When deployed as a household detachment, however, the Knights Errant are capable of overcoming the mightiest of foes, no matter how large or heavily armoured they may be. Indeed, so effective are the Knights in this capacity that Imperial officers will do everything in their power to requisition the services of such a valuable military asset, never more so than when they are expecting to face a super-heavy or Titan-class threat.[1]
