No i'm asking like how tall is a truescale titan. I know the one's GW make/made are not true scale so whats the difference in size?

This google search says 100m, which translates to about 11cm tall for epic scale. Does that sound about right?

100m would be more than that.... I thought 1mm is approximately equal to 1 foot at epic scale? So 100m being approximately 300 feet would be more like 30cm tall

We'll 100m = 3300cm and 3300cm divided by 300 is 11, that's how I got 11cm. Because the scale is 1/300, does that sound right lol you got me doubting my math now

100cm to a meter = 10000cm

Hey i looked in the FW imperial armour books and they state the following heights.

Reaver 22.3 metres
Warhound 14 metres at rest

Warlord sorry can't help you with that one.

Lol I input 1000m = cm into Google and it came back 3300, that's pretty stupid of me to not just do it like that lol

Titan heights have varied a lot of over the years (and are commonly much larger in artwork than in descriptions - perhaps the artwork is in-universe 40k artwork displaying oversized titans for propoganda reasons).

Epic truscale has often been used here to mean a 1/5 of the 40k GW/FW version (40k being a roughly 30mm scale game and epic being roughly 6mm scale).

Forge World are apparently in the design/planning stage of making a Warlord Titan, though it could be years till we see a model. They've said it will only be slightly taller than their Reaver (which is meant to be 16" tall to the top of it's missile launcher) but a lot bulkier.

We'll going off that scale pic posted at 36m I calculated that to be 12cm on the table at 1/300. If my math is right that sounds like a properly sized warlord Titan for the table, does anything have a height on the current warlord model?

Thanks,
Blind-

The current metal Warlord is too small and certainly not truescale. I'm doing my titan legion all true-scale and don't have a metal GW one so I can't comment there but a truescale Reaver proxy would be around 9cm high if that helps.
