CHAOS KNIGHTS: HOUNDPACK LANCE

Description

Chaos Knights: Houndpack Lance – The Vanguard of Ruin

The Chaos Knights Houndpack Lance is a terrifying collection of seven corrupted War Dogs, forming the vanguard of any Heretic Astartes or Chaos force in Warhammer 40,000. These smaller, faster engines of destruction are piloted by twisted nobles who have pledged their allegiance to the Ruinous Powers. They are deployed ahead of the towering Despoilers and Tyrants, serving as shock troops, flankers, and dedicated hunters of enemy armor and infantry.

This multi-part plastic kit allows you to field a devastating force of these engines, providing unparalleled customization and tactical flexibility. If you seek a fast, hard-hitting, and visually imposing army for your tabletop gaming collection, the Houndpack Lance is the perfect foundation.

Lore: The Fallen and the Faithful

Chaos Knights are the dark mirror of the Imperial Knight Houses. Once loyal servants of the Emperor, these pilots succumbed to the whispers of Chaos, driven mad by ambition, warp corruption, or the sheer horror of the galaxy. Their War Dogs, now possessed by malevolent machine spirits, are instruments of pure destruction, adorned with grotesque trophies and blasphemous runes.

The War Dogs themselves are often referred to as “Hounds” due to their aggressive, pack-hunting nature. They excel at running down isolated targets and tearing apart enemy lines, paving the way for the larger, slower Chaos Knight brethren.

The Houndpack Lance: Tactical Flexibility

The strength of the Houndpack Lance lies in its ability to adapt to any tactical situation. With seven individual War Dog kits, you can create a balanced force capable of overwhelming close-combat assaults, sustained ranged firepower, or a versatile mix of both. These units are crucial for controlling objectives early in the game and applying immediate pressure to the enemy’s deployment zone.

The seven multi-part plastic War Dog kits are highly customizable and can be assembled as any combination of the three primary variants, ensuring your force is perfectly tailored to your preferred playstyle.
