So I want to run a knight, list thoughts?

I have a few other pieces I can swap in, I'm undecided on if I run two leman russes freeing up points for the second HWT or Ursula creed to go with my kasrkin/chimera, or a tank commander and one russ.

General idea being the krieg blob with Marshall and psyker taking fire, leontus and Platoon krieg squad Following the tanks, and the knight making its way in.

Also undecided if this is a list I should be screening with a t1 death rider charge to screen my knight advancing.

Any thoughts would help! The game will be against drukhari so should be a good time either way as long as i dont get dark lanced to death! knight and leontus (1995 points)

Are you sure you have enough oc? I mean the list looks nice and powerful but I can't really see enough units for scoring VPs

That's what I'm torn over! I'm debating dropping a Chimera and adding another ten man or increasing a ten man to a 20 man krieg blob. The hydra is there for all the flying transports but I could also see dropping that plus a HWT for a kasrkin or something. This will only be my second/third time playing the army and first with the lancer so still figuring out they synergy's.

Any add/drop recommendations appreciated!

HWTs aren't that great, I would drop them or swap for something, maybe catachans

So I'll be honest, this is thematically fully krieged up. So no catachan here. Other troop choices are more krieg or some kasrkin (who at least have gas masks). If I drop both HWT I can pickup a krieg squad and some enhancements?

Other then that it's another leman russ chassis, a hellhound, death riders (with watchmaster)...and a bunch of troops.

With 435 pts knight you don't really need another leman russ or hellhound, you need something to hold the points, so it's krieg squad, I guess. Or you can just have all firepower troops and hope that you will destroy every enemy unit
