Knights had official rules (eg. in Adeptus Titanicus/SM1). Back then there
were no animal riders; that's just a later idea that never got off the
ground. However, the idea of animal riders has some strange appeal to me so
I'm designing a combined knight/animal Exodite list with Nils at the moment.
It will be posted to Incoming when ready.

*de-lurk after long absence*
Are you basing it around the dragon riders miniatures or on something else
entirely?
