Fajita Fan Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 If you're not planning to use PFs just glue the biceps into the shoulders, glue on the same 5mm magnets you're using for the Warlord shoulders, maintain your polarity, and have fun. For Warhounds I used a slightly smaller set of magnets I had laying around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Achinadav Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 TIAT I lost horribly in two 1250 point games one after the other. Coming up against a Legio Astorun Ferrox maniple, with dual power fist/chain fist Reaver's, backed up by a pair of acastus asterios is nasty. I really don't know what to do against a pair of hyperdrive enable d titan-graters! Pics to follow on my plog tomorrow. My opponent has now sworn off acastus, after seeing how deadly they are. And I have decided to revise my opinion from "meh" to "oh my god, ouch, I can't look, is it over yet." Only took three turns to be completely tabled in the second game.

Fajita Fan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 They’ll get a points correction or a stat debuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malika666 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Thought of the day: Vanguard Miniatures is 4 years old today and is celebrating that by offering a discount today. Might be handy if you want some nice terrain or decorations for some Titan's bases. On another note, some Lancer knights with jump packs would be rather sweet... noigrim 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achinadav Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 They’ll get a points correction or a stat debuff. Oh absolutely. My first encounter with them was against two in a 2000 point game. This time two in 1250 point game. They wiped out 500 points worth of cerastus in a turn. Even if they hadn't done anything else, that would have left me massively out-pointed. I love the models, but murder turtles will not be gracing my table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RipOffProductions Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Thought of the day: bring back the option of jumppacks for Titans! I would love to see a lot of the old weirdo options come back, like the boarding ram-fist, or aircraft landing/launching pad(especially now that the new Aeronautica is out and uses the same scale as Titanicus). though maybe jumpjet Titans would be restricted to a spacific new class of titan, at the vary least they'd need to be an all new model to represent them anyway.

Mendi Warrior Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I would love that to! I found some titanic terrain (for people with both high ceilings and deep pockets that is): https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/pair-of-large-bronze-soldiers-w-sword-shield-5B945C8B18?utm_source=house&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=targetedexclusive&utm_content=nat091919 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) Today in Titanicus I learned that apparently the Battleforce is no longer available through 3rd party retailers. This sucks if it's true. Can anyone confirm? Dallo Edited September 19, 2019 by Brother Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 One on sale at Amazon for $300. I told y'all for months to buy them up while they last, this is why I buy :cuss I don't need because I might need it later. I bought two of the Apocalypse Eldar forces (2 Wraithlords, 15 Wraithguard, and a Seer) because they were $145 each on Amazon. I was buying the easy-to-build GSC models from the Deathwatch box game for $60 a set and now I have thousands of points to assemble/convert.

Kenzaburo Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Had the same happen with a german online retailer. They were carrying it for quite some time, then suddenly dropped it. I asked them about it and they confirmed that they will no longer be selling it. All the other AT stuff, including the GME, are still covered, though.

Achinadav Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 If a Cerastus banner sells out to go right for them how do they fair? I think the cerastus would do OK once they got up close and personal. But getting there would be the problem. The high strength weapons on the acastus just wallops there save really heavily, even with lancers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Oh in melee they're fine, I'm just asking if, say, 3 Cerastus can get across the average table at an Acastus banner before they get broken down into their constituent bits.

Achinadav Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Not based on Tuesday's experience. With conversion beamers, they don't get a very good save. So even on 4+ to hit, there's going to be bunches of failed saves because the templates are so big at long range. With one on each flank I kept getting caught by the one I wasn't hiding from. More survivable against magna lasers. Although I did forget about paired, which might have reduced the number of hits. And I can't work out how a strength 9 weapon got criticals to just remove knights a couple of times. I must be misremembering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Today in Titanicus I realised that GW reused Titan artwork for the different Maniples in the rule book and in Titandeath. For example the Krytos Warhound “Apostate of Days” in the Venator Maniple is identical to “Curse of Iron” in the Lupercal Maniple. Not sure why they didn’t use the same name for both?

I bought 4 so I could use them as a distraction when I run a duel power claw warlord, but TIAT I learnt that this would not work how I thought as the first fist could push the enemy out of range of the second. :( Still going to run it as I think the model will look cool!

Beren Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I've just noticed that Legio Suturvora had eight Nemesis pattern fire support Titans, so I wonder if maybe they'll show up around the time of the Calth book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
