'''Knight Lancers''' are a type of specialized [[Knight]] walker of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]]. One of the more uncommon but highly valued Knights fielded by [[Knight House]]s, the Knight Lancer is a first-strike weapon, attuned to rapid assault tactics and lethal flanking maneuvers. It is renowned for its speed and power, as well as for the temperamental and restive nature of its [[machine-spirit]]. Knight Lancers are well-equipped for close combat, possessing both a [[Cerastus Shock Lance]] and a [[Ion Gauntlet Shield]].{{Fn|1}}
Because of this reputation, the most impetuous and glory-hungry of the Knight households are driven to bond with these war machines, their own souls a match for the fury caged within their war engines.{{Fn|1}}
