Opinions of Kn in HOTT

[Matt]

I have not played HOTT, but am looking to possibly "HOTT up" some of my armies. My casual read of the rules leads me to think the Kn element is weak.

Any thoughts from the veterans out there?

Aetius' Gothic lancers gobbled up a bunch of Germanic warbands last night....they looked fairly robust.

Maybe a smidge weak, due to commonality of Shooters and Behemoths and no QK on Bd. With that said, they are effective (for a two-point element) against Heros and any Aerials (they can't attack them, but no Flyer or Airboat wants to attack a Knight either). Not too bad overall. But certainly not the dominant element it is in DBA, where it is easier to list the few things it is afraid of (Pikes, BGo, Elephants, Bows) than the ones it wants to fight (almost everything else).
