==History== The Space Knights were founded to protect nearby worlds from an Ork WAAAGH!, and their more secretive task, which is to contain an Eldar city embedded within the planets crust. The city was revealed by the ravages of the Exterminatus, it was there, where the chapter's hero distinguished himself during the first assault on the entombed city. He was also the first member of the chapter's death company and also the first to die within its ranks. Since the chapter's creation all members of the original death company are deceased, following their creed of martyrdom. Because of the Chapters weakened state and entire companies worth of MkIII Power Armour Lying around, as well as strong ties to the Adeptus Mechanicus, whose Forge Worlds will be under threat should the Space Knights fall, the Chapter fields almost exclusively MkIII plate, to aid their tactics, which involve breaking through fortified positions and unique power weapons, to fight bloody hand-to-hand with their enemies, the added protection the MkIII offers helps keep them alive long enough to make it to the enemy lines and to begin the slaughter. Another quirk of both their Isolation and their ties to the Mechanicus are the unique patterns of vehicles they receive. An example of this would be the Whirlwind ballista, which replaces the MLRS system with the rapid fire battle cannon usually equipped by Imperial Knight Paladins. Which are used to Pummel enemy fortifications into dust. Another unique vehicle fielded by the Space Knights is the use of Imperial Knights in place of Dreadnoughts. This not only allows the knights to be resupplied almost entirely by forgeworlds in the same subsector, but they provide and effective counter to the Wraithknights of the Eldar Craftworld they are currently in a protracted war with.
