Warhammer Titans

Warhammer Titans are engines of war, pinnacles of the Imperium War might! Each of them, from the scout titan “Warhound”, to the mighty “Warlord” Battle Titan are extremely powerful! Mounting weapons to large and powerful for other vehicles to mount!

I love titans, and who doesn’t? They each look stunning!

The Warhound scout is pretty powerful on its own, but better supported by other infantry and tanks. It also is more maneuverable then the other heavy titans. It can carry two arm weapons, but some of the most effective weapons are the Plasma Blastgun, Turbo-laser Destructor, and if playing marines or a horde army, the Vulcan Mega Bolter. Be careful where you send it, as it can't take much punishment compared to the other titans.

The Reaver is an old design, outdating both the Warhound and Warlord fluff-wise. The Reaver is a middle-class titan that can mount weapons that the Warhound can’t carry, but leaves the ultra-heavy weapons to the Warlord. Since they are rare, an army usually fields them for long-range fire support. It can take significantly more damage than the Warhound, and by far the "shootiest" of them all.

The Warlord is “the most common” class fielded, (fluff wise) and carries extremely powerful weapons that are second to a space craft. They can take a HUGE amount of punishment, and can retaliate with so much power that it’s...stupid... They are seldom seen in any game, as they are too huge to be represented in an Apocalypse game, but if they are used, all they really do is pound the enemy to extinction. They typically carry two Double-barreled Turbo Laser Destructors as their carapace weapons, and a Volcano Cannon and Gatling Blaster as their arm weapons.

Finally, we have the infamous Emperor class Titans. They are even MORE powerful than the already overpowered Warlord. They are most noted for their signature castle style torso, with spires, towers, etc. They typically carry an army in them to prevent boarding actions and to deploy the army to take objectives. They are almost never seen in any game besides Epic Armageddon.

When to use Warhammer Titans:

• Massive in size, titans are mainly used in the Epic Armageddon game system, and sometimes in massive Apocalypse battles
• When playing with or against this army, it is important to know that it won’t win the game for your opponent, and although fields massive guns, it wont take your entire army down. It is also important to know what to target it
• Keep in mind it also has void shields, so target less powerful weapons at the shields, and then when they are down, nuke the Titan with your really powerful weapons
• These bad boys usually cowering behind cover, so deep-strike a unit with a vortex Grenade or launch a few Death strike missiles. Keep in mind that it can go nuclear if its reactor blows. This can take out your opponents’ army if it surrounded the titan
