The Squats have some bad rolls and no supreme commander, and so both the Warriors and the Goliath Mega Cannons are forced to hold, electing to remove their blast markers.

In the rally phase the Hell-knight fails to rally, and moves to block the Warriors from getting towards the Blitz.

Turn 4: Mop up.

Chaos Titan Legion wins turn 4, and the Painlord kills the Overlord. The Subjugator engages the drill, killing it. The Light Artillery moves up towards the Painlord to contest both squat secondary objectives. The Questor doubles towards the Goliaths, damaging one. The Berzerkers fail the initiative.

The Tunderfires kills the Subjugator. The squats make a half-hearted attempt to gang up on the Reviler titan, but fail. The Hell-blade squadron decides to stay home.

End result: Chaos Titan Legion kills the Squat BTS, The Squats hold 2 objectives in opponent's half. Chaos Titan Legion wins on points.

Some reflections: The most significant rolls came in the first two turns, when the Cyclops failed to kill the Questor, and was then eaten up by the Subjugators in the following turn. Being able to summon daemons with all formations proved to be almost counter-productive with the Painlord, but very effective indeed with the Lesser Daemon Engine formation (in this case the Hell-striders, which with the aid of daemonettes managed to clear way for the Subjugators). More playtesting will be required to see whether it is too effective, but it feels cool and certainly makes the list a lot more interesting to play.

Am quite pleased with how the Unity of Command rule worked in practice. Giving the army +1 in strategy rating and most formations +1 when doubling (this is for Slaanesh. Other powers have other bonuses) gives a very powerful reason to play pure lists.

The Chaos Titans have crap range on their weapons, but are monsters in engage and support. This felt OK, but may perhaps prove to be underpowered when combined with the low number of activations that the list allows for. It remains to be seen if this is a list that can actually win and not just scrape by with winning draws.

Next time I will play a very similar list, but pay a bit more attention to how I equip my titans.

Hope people enjoyed this battle report! Will try and take more careful notes next time.

Thanks for reading! I've re-named the list to Traitor Titan Legions since this report was posted, but overall it is mostly the same. Got another playtest coming up this Tuesday, this time probably with a pure Khorne build.
