Kinda overwhelmed by the votes for what was really a basic plain black and white Crucius Titan. Wanted to thank everyone. Also wanted to say the other Titans are no less deserving in my opinion. The camo patterns were a feat. And Lion’s shading was super tight. Also wanted to congratulate all the Artificers. Honestly I had a really hard time even choosing one above the rest. I wouldn’t be able to tell if they weren’t all HM Master Class. And the Spawns of course, truely imaginative (what I mean by that is actually - nightmarish). Not just the paint of course but also the sculpts. And thanks again Semper for hosting.

Sorry - more questions than answers: Am finding it hard to get spacing with the Thunderbolt to effectively use its weapon when it’s slower than the Dakka. And I’m still not sure how useful changing altitude is except to buy time if you think you’re going to be in a bad position. Lastly, I’m not clear on what the utility of maneuvers 6 / 7 / 8 really is above 2 / 3 / 4; granted we haven’t got to use Interceptors yet.

Most of the lists I’ve played against in Tourney have had a single Warrior, a single Lictor, 1 to 2 Genestealers and then a ton of Hormagaunts.

An AT Warhound it can! And yes, it’s hideous. But I fail to see the issue with that....

So anyway, a little exorbitant but I just found the Arutan: http://www.blueforgeterrain.com/store/p9/Titan_Lander.html

Oh right oops, I’ve missed a couple years of this and forgotten how they work.

Are we going to have sub events like Artificer for Waaagh or Call of Chaos apart from a competition of points?

Ok the old Imperial Armor Aeronautica, and Imperial Armor Taros Campaign books describe the following: 1. Aircraft can take IR Targeting as optional equipment that gives them the Night Vision rule. I assume this is akin to an IRST on contemporary MiG-29, etc. 2. Hunter Killer Missiles are Krak Missiles that are optically guided by a mini logis engine in the warhead. Basically part of what was a human brain, connected to a bionic optic, that can recognize a particular image and can steer the missile to it. Because of this guidance, it can be launched from long range (effectively unlimited table top range) 3. Hellstrikes are basically just an aircraft mounted version of the Hunter Killer, fired from aircraft traveling at higher velocity. Hence - I assume it’s the same IO guidance. I also assume the 48” tabletop range as opposed to the HK’s unlimited range is some quirk of its AtG use. 4. Other missiles like Skystrikes have the Heat Seeker rule that allows rerolls of failed to-Hit. I assume this likely the same mini logis engine - but one hooked up to some sort of thermal imager. 5. Aircraft can take Flare and Chaff as optional equipment that provides Invul Saves. I assume Chaff in this case doesn’t confound radar - but are rather some sort of optically reflective strips that confound the logis engine. But that said, we also do know from Imperial Armor Anphelion - in the Elysian D-99 section that: 6. Long Range Scanners exist. I assume this is Radar as it’s function is described as including “Long Range Sweep” and “Short Range Lock”. Though whether this is only standalone or whether it can possibly be incorporated somehow into a weapon system is hard to confirm. Edit - Just to clarify; The statements above, before where I say “I assume...”, are straight out of the IA books. The statements after are my conjecture.

More like having to bring the actual instructions with me along with every other book lol. No big deal.

Are the instructions the only place to officially get the data Sheet?

What about ITC specifically?

While Kill Team is still going strong in terms of players where I’m at, I hope GW the corporation does continue to support it as they have Necromunda. A consolidation of rules would be nice.

Looks fantastic! What kind of brass did you use?
