Macrossmartin Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 My 'first pass' at a printable terminal, intended to be laminated and used with dry-erase markers rather than plastic pegs that fly off when someone sneezes, or the cat takes interest. Designed to fit 2 x per A4 page. This is a fairly raw, unadorned version. There will also be a version with appropriate backgrounds etc. to make it look more 'Titanic'. (Note that this is just a jpeg screenshot of the artwork; final files will be proper PDFs to download and print.) And here's an example of how a sheet might look during a game: Biggus Roboticus is a Legio Mortis Titan with the Legio Specific Wargear Remains of the Fallen taken as an upgrade. It is under Full Stride Orders, has lost a few Void Shields, but still has a pretty cool Plasma Reactor. A Critical Damage result has caused Stabilisers Damaged, and both the Head and Body have taken some light hits (1 and 3 respectively), earlier in the game. Let me know what you think; Is there anything significant I've missed? Changes you'd like explained? Comments, please!

Fajita Fan Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Please put the outline of the titan in there like BattleTech LOL Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356057-erasable-titanicus-terminals/#findComment-5316674 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macrossmartin Posted May 20, 2019 Author Share Posted May 20, 2019 Cheers, folks. Don't know about making better stuff than GW, more an alternative solution to the same problem. That, and I do love to tinker with designs.  I'll try to get the Reaver and Warhound up later this week, then the snazzy versions of all three. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356057-erasable-titanicus-terminals/#findComment-5317212 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanthier Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Absolutely ideal! Fantastic stuff, I'm looking forward to the rest of these. Any chance you could do the same for Knight banners, preferably with multiple damage tracks to represent additional banners?

Macrossmartin Posted May 20, 2019 Author Share Posted May 20, 2019 Here's a preview of the Warlord Terminal from yesterday, now in its snazzy, printer-hostile version. There's a few minor changes, thanks to some suggestions many people have offered on AT18 FB groups, etc. Just to stress: This is only a low-res preview, and I will be releasing high-res PDF files of both the printer-friendly and unfriendly versions of all three current Titan classes once I've got these finalised. (Hopefully late this week.) Knights will follow. I like Xanthier's idea about a sheet that lets you track a Lance of Banners on one sheet... but wouldn't that be a bit restrictive? I think it'd only work if you're running all the same type of Knight in the Lance. (I.e., all Questoris.)

Fajita Fan Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Knight banners can be fairly small, you’re right about needing them for each banner in a lance.

Xanthier Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I've only used multiple banners of Cerastus Lancers, so different weapons hasn't been an issue for me. You'd certainly need a separate banner per class of knight, but could easily group multiple knight banners of the same type on a single terminal.

Macrossmartin Posted May 27, 2019 Author Share Posted May 27, 2019 Thanks very much, folks! I gave these Terminals their first outing in a game last Friday, and they worked pretty well. Certainly useful to be able to write things like the rolled-up Princeps Senioris right on their Titan's sheet, along with reminders about which die to roll for reactor overloads, etc.  Knights will follow in a week or so. My decals for Legio Crucius have arrived, so decalling up my Warmongers is my priority at the moment.  Oh, if you print these and give them a go, please let me know your impressions; more useful than the original Terminals? Less fiddly? Utter rubbish? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356057-erasable-titanicus-terminals/#findComment-5320849 Share on other sites More sharing options...
