Why Play Renegade Knights

You like Imperial Knights, but not the Corpse-Emperor they serve.

Or, maybe you want a passable Superheavy for Chaos forces and don't want to go to Forgeworld to get one.

Whatever your reason, you want a big stompy robot possibly bristling with guns.

Obviously, all of these are Lords of War. All but the first entry are FW.

Renegade Knight

Unlike the loyalist Knights, there are no pre-set patterns: you pay for the chassis with 2 CC weapons by default and can swap either of them for the weapon(s) you want. 24 wounds and a 5+ invul against shooting so it isn't leaving the tabletop any time soon, but a fully kitted-out (with huge gun and carapace weapon) one costs even more than a Lord of Skulls and doesn't regenerate. At its best against an opponent that has lots of tanks or other huge things needing a lot of killing.
