Strategic Asset Formation

The rules for including Knight Households Detachments in full Formations are presented over the next few pages. In addition, Detachments from the Knight Households Army List can be included in a Knightly Lance Strategic Asset Formation. This Formation can only be included in an Army as part of an Allied Contingent.

Knightly Lance

Knight scions would frequently march to battle in Lances, consisting of a group of knight armours of the same class commanded by a scion of middling rank. These units would act as support elements for titan maniples or other Imperial elements, utilising the skill of their scions and the wondrous artifice of each knight to ensure victory.

Paragons of Duty

Each Knight model within this Formation that has the Independent special rule always forms its own Independent Unit, even if there are several models within a Detachment that have the same name.

Example: A Questoris Knight Banner Detachment consists of one Knight Errant and two Knight Paladin models. As such the Detachment is formed of three Independent Units: a Knight Errant, a Knight Paladin and a Knight Paladin.
