Warhammer 40,000: Cerastus Knight Lancer (2023) - Games Workshop

The Cerastus Knight Lancer is a formidable war-machine with impressive speed and agility, outclassing the slower Questoris-class. It is the most well-known variant of the Cerastus chassis, particularly esteemed by bold House scions. Equipped with an ion gauntlet and shock lance, it is ideally suited for face-to-face combat against colossal foes, often leading its pilots to seek glory by defeating the enemy's most prized war machines.

This multipart plastic kit allows for the construction of a Cerastus Knight Lancer, a swift and aggressive Knight armed for close combat. Taller than its Questoris-class counterparts, the Knight Lancer can swiftly traverse the battlefield on its long legs. It uses its ion gauntlet shield to deflect incoming attacks while unleashing bolts from its massive arm-mounted shock lance before charging in for a devastating impale on the heaviest threats.

This highly customizable model features joints in its ankles, knees, hips, head, arms, waist, and even individual fingers, providing the flexibility to create dynamic poses. The head and arms also offer glueless assembly options for mid-game adjustments. The kit includes various cosmetic options, such as variant designs for kneepads, greaves, and pauldrons, hull-mounted icons representing different allegiances, an armorial shield, and three different pennants. Additionally, it allows for the construction of the Knight with an open hatch, revealing the seated pilot within.

Comprising 208 plastic components and accompanied by a Citadel 170x109mm Oval Base, this kit also includes an Age of Darkness Cerastus Transfer Knight Sheet with 517 optional markings and icons for the Knight Households of the Horus Heresy. This unpainted miniature requires assembly, for which Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel paints are recommended.

The Cerastus Knight Lancer is a swift and towering choice for Lords of War within Questoris Households and allied armies. Its crackling shock lance allows it to thunder into melee and shatter mighty foes, making it suitable for deployment on the battlefields of the Horus Heresy and the 41st Millennium. Personalization options for posing and cosmetic extras are available, allowing for a unique and dynamic representation of this powerful war-machine. As with the miniature itself, assembly and painting are required, so the use of Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints is recommended.
