Today in Titanicus I...

[Fajita Fan]

I didn't enjoy that book, I listened to it on YouTube because someone uploaded the audiobook version.  

 

I'm not happy with my gold titans and I'm thinking of blocking in the panels but I thought it might be fun to do a group of engines from different legions fighting together.  I can use the maniple rules in game even though they're from different legions just for gameplay but I thought it might be fun to mix things up since painting the same scheme over and over makes painting even harder for me.

Yes warlord was horrific and imperator a bit meh

Being new and lacking the lore background that most of you folks have is the reason I went for a DIY legion however now that I'm seeing a lot more of the legions paint schemes come about I was thinking a long your lines. The fact that I'm REALLY digging the latest Warhound image for Legio Magna isn't helping!

[Fajita Fan]

It honestly doesn’t matter how your titans are painted when you play, if for example you have 5 Reavers it’s very obviously a Corsair maniple no matter what colors/transfers you use. I just want to be able to honor multiple legions.

Playing with adding flak batteries and little guys to the imperator. (Give it some scale)

[Mendi Warrior]

Man the walls! 

Super cool!

[schoon]

The flak batteries might be guilding the lilly a bit, but love the personnel.

 

Do you have a Tech Priest to put up there?

TITI received the Reaver I ordered off Ebay as part of my foray into AT. Currently building the body at the moment, but need to order magnets for the arms when I get to that point soon.

A friend sent me a link to this: http://broncofish.com/titanicus/ Which is really useful I'm sure you'll agree. 

 

But it got me thinking, is there somewhere a document template to make similar documents like this, so you could for instance, mock up your own Custom Legio page in the same house style as the books?

...ehhh, there's just too many details wrong from the get go for it to be really useful. You determine missions before buying stratagems (duh), wounded princeps roll for Shutdown at the beginning of the Strategy phase and not when they're activated, the order of operations doesn't even mention stratagems normally being used before orders, the description of a failed Command Check is inaccurate, pushing the reactor implies double heat on awakened machine spirits which is rubbish, weapon details for Warbringers are off... List goes on.

 

It's more concise than the rulebook, but I've never had a problem with just the normal reference sheet and an occasional look in the rule book when what you really need is the precise wording.

[Sword Brother Adelard]

Maybe we should approach the author?

[Fajita Fan]

He's on IG, that's where I got the pdf.

AT Battle Report - Betrayal at Ithraca

 

 

At least something to satiate (if very briefly) my thirst for AT news …

Still awaiting delivery of my new goodies and no energy for whatsoever (too much covid, too long unemployed … 5+ years now … and as of this morning yet another potential employer turning down my offer of service. Grimdark … now-style …

Anyway, I hope my new goodies will help me stop procrastinating a bit 

[depthcharge12]

I had to squint carefully enough to make sure that wasn’t Fureans lol

[Mendi Warrior]

The colours would have been reversed for Fureans 

I squinted to read the little story … this tells you how thirsty I am for anything AT

The scenery is on Owen Patten's twitter if not mistaken, there are some cool combinations.

I like the loadouts on those warlords, they’re pretty gnarly

[Mendi Warrior]

Absolutely, I'll have to invest in some FW guns at some point.

Hi all, I’m a little behind on updates, managed to get a load of scenery done over the last couple of weeks, but I realised I hadn’t updated my latest Titan! So rather than spam you with a load of backlog photos, I’ll pop them in every day or so, that way it’ll make me look really productive...

 

So, first up, today (a few weeks ago) I finished The Tattered King (Al Muhtari Malik, in butchered google Arabic) for my Fureans;

 

 

That brings my traitor force up to 2 Warlords, 3 Reavers, 3 Warhounds, 2 Porphyrian, 4 Lancers and 6 Questoris knights. I’m going to get all my scenery out and do a family shot at some point in the next week or so, which I’ll put up on my long dormant Fureans string. Scenery pics to come over the next day or so!

[Fajita Fan]

Just awesome, Fureans looks so cool all painted like that. 

[depthcharge12]

Looks amazing man!

[Mandragola]

Enjoy building it. Take care with the legs to make sure you have the feet on the right way round!

 

TITI’ve been trying out this alternative to green stuff called brown stuff. Seems a bit better for sharp edges than GS. It’s good because my Psi-Titan is going to be kind of covered in eagle wings.

We had a blast last weekend, playing a version of the Titandeath scenario with some 6000 points of Astorum / Defensor assailants rushing Favilla's 5000 point line. Report and more in the blog!

Thought I would post it up here. 

 

But Episode 24 of the God Engine Cast was published today! (Ep 23 Dropped on friday) 

In this show I Discuss Playing games with Strong Narratives, and events of all shapes and sizes with Hobbyist Lucas Lyons, Last weeks show was a review of the new Book. 

 

Had been meaning to post a lot more in last few weeks, but fighting some illness and injuries 

[schoon]

Thank-you, Uveron.

 

Can't wait to give it a listen!

I just wanted to say that you often sound very apologetic about not producing as much content as you’d have liked to. As a listener, I appreciate what you do for the community, and look forward to new episodes, but there is absolutely no expectation on you to maintain a certain release schedule. This is something you do in your spare time, not a professional commitment. Whatever you produce, and however quickly you produce it, I personally am grateful for the time and effort that evidently goes into it. There’s no need to put more pressure on yourself, what you do is valued and it’s entirely up to you how much you do!

 

Thanks again!
