Warhammer 40,000: Codex: Imperial Knights (10th)

Imperial Knights are towering war machines piloted by an elite few – men and women whose nobility is etched into their every deed. They champion the virtues of the Code Chivalric and stamp down upon the enemies of the Imperium as they battle against treachery, dishonour, and infamy across the galaxy.

Codex: Imperial Knights is a vital book for collectors who enjoy the thunderous steps of mighty war machines. This impressive tome is packed with noble artwork, chivalrous background material, stunning photography, and the rules you need to unleash your titanic steeds in games of Warhammer 40,000. You’ll find datasheets, Detachments, rules for using Freeblades in your other Imperial armies, and narrative Crusade rules. This book will bring honour to your household no matter how you like to collect, paint, and play with your Imperial Knights.

Inside this 112-page hardback book, you'll find:
– Riveting background material about the Knight Houses, including how they operate, and their unique heraldry
– Photography of massed Knight charges, and artwork that will set your imagination ablaze
– Rules for using Imperial Knights in games of Warhammer 40,000, with four Detachments, and 12 datasheets to cover the available configurations
– A set of rules for working out your own Chivalric Quest narrative campaign

This book also contains a one-use code to unlock Codex: Imperial Knights content in Warhammer 40,000: The App.eed arise, they can draft entire armies into their service. Some latch onto larger Imperial forces and operate from the sidelines, while others assemble companies of auxiliary troops into cohesive armies – and both approaches can be found in the new Codex: Imperial Agents.

This means that Codex: Imperial Agents can be used in two distinct ways – to add specialist Inquisitorial aid to your army, or build a dedicated Inquisitorial force of your own.

Those familiar with their current rules will recognise the Assigned Agents army rule, which allows a certain number of units from the book to be added to other IMPERIUM armies. This roster has been expanded to help fill out your Ordo Xenos, Malleus, and Hereticus presence, with Deathwatch Kill Teams joining the RETINUE units.

The new Codex also features Watch Masters, Corvus Blackstars, and Watch Captain Artemis (returning to the range after an absence), so you can include a full Deathwatch contingent in any IMPERIUM army, complete with leaders, squads, and transports. Those with full Deathwatch Space Marine armies needn’t worry – they can add the Deathwatch-specific units to a Space Marine army of black-clad units like Intercessors and Terminators, melding the strong foundations and Detachments of Codex: Space Marines with themed specialists from Codex: Imperial Agents.

Grey Knights Terminators and Battle Sister squads* show up in a new REQUISITIONED category. Priests and Navigators are joining the party, too, to provide guidance in both a spiritual and very literal sense
