Lots of little clues regarding Chaos Knights came out of WarhammerFest.  Let’s take a look:

via 40K fanatic and Lounge dweller Mr.Mystery:

Various comments flying about regarding if/when we may/may not see Chaos Knights, so I thought it best to see these tidbits lumped together into a single rumour/news thread. And this is it.

First up, my conversation with Darren Parwood, who is responsible for the current FW Knight stuff. I asked him outright ‘are we going to see Chaos Knights/conversion kits?’. His initial answer? ‘I’m not really allowed to talk about that’…which is sort of a yes, reading between the lines, on account it’s not a no. Conversation developed, and he explained that background wise, they felt a little boxed into a corner, as the Knights are presented, via the Throne Mechanicum as all Goody Two Shows and stuff. Finished up with ‘Never say Never’.

So far, so not terribly clear. Hopeful yes. But not certain.

Later conversation? Yeah Mr Parwood is Mr Mechanicum, and will be doing Dark Mechanicum, and may have mentioned weapon heads for Titans and Knights in that same convo…..

Now. Onto more tangible stuff.

IA 13 has, for the first time in modern 40k, referred to Renegade Daemon Knights. Questor, Subdjucator, Hell Strider etc. Right there in Black and White, with the Inquisitor off to speak to the Relictors to find out more…. This is the same book which mentions predecessors to the Contemptor Dread – potentially significant on account the Seminars promise a new Dreadnought for the Heresy….

Seminars? Sadly didn’t get into one myself, so what follows is at least third hand info – they are looking at doing Chaos conversion parts for the Knights….

And that’s where we’re up to as far as I’m aware.

If anyone else has more stuff they can chip in with, please do so!

~So how fast would you grab a Chaos Knight?
