There’s plausibly something to be said for running Forge World knights as Iconoclasts, because according to our notes 15 S8 AP-3 D3 attacks is officially “no joke”, but you’re still going to be putting yourself on hard mode with fewer tools to mitigate the struggle than the loyalists get.Rob: Chaos Knights saw a massive drop in their win rates over the last month, to something more like what we’d expect given their low TiWP scores.Sample ListFrom the enigmatically named “November Series”, Konnor Long’s Chaos Knight list was the only one I could find that’s been successful recently, taking 3-0 in this event/league (delete as applicable).Army List - Click to Expand++ Super-Heavy Detachment 0CP (Chaos – Chaos Knights) [99 PL, 1,975pts, 2CP] +++ Configuration +Dread Household: Bold Tyrants, Custom Household, Dark Forging+ Stratagems +Corrupted Heirlooms [-3CP]: Two modelsTyrannical Court [-3CP]: Two models+ Lord of War +Chaos Cerastus Knight Acheron [24 PL, 480pts, -2CP]: 4.

In both cases there’s multiple factors at play, each getting a significant shot in the arm from rules changes and also seeing players really start to crack open how to make effective lists.Of the two, GSC is the slightly more speculative call – their win rate in the stats is still awful but the best lists now look pretty fierce again. Kataphron Breacher: Arc Claw, Heavy Arc Rifle . There might even be something to the updated Forge World Knight profiles, as the focus on taking defensive buffs rather than relic weapons removes one of their historic drawbacks, and the three damage sweep attack that some of them sport is extremely enticing.
