Fair enough. I don't really understand how vanguard gets away with its stuff. They must have had some careful legal advice, I suppose.

And good for them; I love the variety and added detail they add to my titans and stuff. It's not about the morality, it's incredibly inconsistent rules enforcement by a bunch of guys that run a Facebook page.

 

On topic of actual titans stuff, I just had my third game against aforementioned armiger-buddy. I feel like mad house is the only way to describe our game; 1350 and both our princeps senioris reavers died turn 1, I red-lined a warhound and kamikazed it into the core of his army, both of his warhounds ended up having catastrophic meltdowns and various monsters swarmed from forests and toxic pools to attack our banners of knights. All by turn 3 lol. This game is wild.

As far as I understand IP law, which is not a lot. You can't copyright the shape of things. So as long as you don't use GW's names, (which are copyrighted in the books etc.) You can copy the shapes within reason.

I think this is just people taking advantage of the fact you can't currently buy anything from FW. Sucks, a lot. I suggest waiting till the kit is available.

 

Yeah, this.

 

When FW is out of stock, people have fear that it's gone forever, and then the opportunists come out with auctions like that one.

 

The Psi-Titan has been popular enough that I'm confident it will be in their regular stock rotation.

 

...and it is a rather spiffy model. I've got plans to trick one out. I may never use it on the tabletop (except for fun), but it will look awesome :)

Today in Titanicus I thought about all the cool cheesy metal band names you could use for Titan Legios in a similar vein to Legio Metalica. Whether that was by intent or general 80’s cheesiness from GW at the time of creation.

 

My personal favorite is Legio Pantera. I might have to paint one.

 

Others include:

Legio Clavo (Stryper)

Legio Mortricium (Motörhead)

Legio Ignatum is already WASP lol

Legio Dio (duh, but rainbow was two words in Latin)

Legio Sacerdos (Judas Priests)

Legio Danzig

Legio Sabbatum (Black Sabbath)

Heh I just got the Infernal Herders = Cowboys from Hell

 

10/10 Pantera makes a great Traitor Legio with those names.

 

Legio Danzig would be a good detachment for Word Bearers due to all the occult stuff Glenn Danzig was into.

 

Pantera would look awesome with a rattlesnake paint scheme from the Great Southern Trendkill album.

Princeps Phil would be best modeled tipped over a wreck...

 

I had started coming up with titan names for Legio Metalica but I never committed to it.  This brings me to a question: How many of you with painted legios have "Allegiance Regret" - i.e. how many of you painted a legio but regret it and wish you had painted it a different way?

 

Legios I wish I'd painted:
Fureans

Astorum

Metalica

The temptation is always there, i’d like to do Tempestus and Crucius.

 

Where is the link to the Titan painter to create a paint scheme? I really want to do a Legio Pantera mock up in Oberon Stripes in black and snakebite yellow/brown.

Someone over at the French Epic forum did a Legio Metallica with all the Titans named after songs, was pretty impressive!

This is what I came up with when I started the game;

 

King Nothing - Rex Nihil

Creeping Death - Mors Serpo

Ride the Lightning - Fulgur Veho

Fade to Black - Deficio Furvus

Master of Puppets - Dominus Automata

One - Unus

Sad But True - Maestus Sed Verum

Unforgiven - Irremissible [great song but not a good Latin name]

Justice For All - Justitia Omnibus

Disposable Heroes - Herobius Egestus

Seek and Destroy - Indago Deleo

To Live is to Die - Vivere Est Mori
