I need the description (no rules, just background text) of all the Titan weapons that were available with Space Marine 2nd Edition/Titan Legions. AFAIK the original ones were decribed in the boxed set of SM 2nd, while the others in Titan Legions and at least one article in White Dwarf (i once owned the issue where the weapon systems that were not in the Sm 2nd box were decribed, with their rules listed).

I need the information to complete the Lexicanum articles I'm working on.

If someone can help me out, send a pm or post links to sources. Thanks in advance.

I don't know how much they changed the text due to copyright considerations, but the NetEpic rules have descriptions for all the SM/TL weapons listed in their docs.

Ok, one question:
In the weapon list of the NetEpic Adeptus Mechnicus Army List there are additional Titan weapons I've never heard of:
Doomburner, Cerberus AA Gun, Hellstrike Cannon.
These weapons are marked in the weapon costs list as "optional weapon".
Are these inventions of the NetEpic team, or are they canon?

The Doomburner was on the Khorne Lord of Battles.  The Hellstrike was the Banelord arm weapon, iirc.  I believe they added them for general chaos use, rather than leaving them as dedicated to specific configurations.

Unless I'm mistaken, the Cerberus was a NetEpic invention.  However, I stopped playing for several years after TL, so it's possible that it was in a WD or CJ that I don't know about.

The Doomburner is the (underpowered, IMO) Ravager (Chaos Reaver) arm weapon I have been complaing about for some time.

The Hellstrike Cannon is indeed on the current E:A Banelord.

I have a question about the Vengeance Cannon of the Emperor Titan, Warmonger Pattern. What kind of weaon is it? A Laser weapon, a Plasma weapon, a grenade-firing cannon (name your source; best would be the first release, AFAIK Epic 40,000 magazine)?

It is supposed to be a twin linked volcano cannon if I remember correctly.
...Or defense laser.. Imperator Defense lasers had the same stats as Volcano cannons IIRC (except for added AA ability) so it could just be a connection I made up. But the weapon on the actual model looks like two Milkfloat Warlord Volcano Cannons stuck together.

I know it has the muzzle of a Laser weapon, but I want to be sure. So if you can, please check a source.
Btw, I also need to know what type of missile the Doomstrike Missile is (same Titan; what kind of explosives does it pack?).
