As for a colour scheme.  They are going to be metallic bodies, with purple shin guards and a camo carapace (to better hide from lance strikes.)

So V any hints on what your chaos funded forge world will be doing or is it all hush hush?

Nice scheme - I like the heraldic colour/camo contrast.
And nice work on your titans too :) :)

Well (oh dear, chaos-funded?), the ForgeGuard sets me thinking on the lines of Forge - I'll give a very generous couple of hints: hammers, crucibles of molten metal....

As for the Warhawk, the name initially had me think of a flying titan, which is too ridiculous for words (or is it? Tau 'uge flyboyz.... jumping Revenants....Megabomma) . I read the fluff, discovered it's a scout.... scout, flier, flier, scout.... I'm thinking of a heavy flier here. Very different from your fluff or rules, so I'll reserve it for my very small and private corner of the defensive works of the Forgeworld.

No, I'd say his modelling inspired ideas for this army list version and the rules included. And that in turn has inspired me to plan some weird conversions... all to the ?good (but not the greater good, that would be too Tau). ?:)

Well, I would rather take official fluff (new or old) as inspiration, but nothing wrong in your way either, but it takes things away from 40K/Epic and changes it to something else (better or worse). Sad though that I want consistent background, and this "new weapons and new WE:s" is slippery slope.

Well the forgeguard were shoehorned into the list to give a titan legion access to knight size walkers without having to field knights an opening up thatbarrel of spawn (regarding where or not titans are allowed to have knights and which ones and when).  As were the dual concussion cannons, though that was more of a last minute thing.

The current list's CML are a new addition.  Old fluff had them guarding the titan's arse from infantry (possible slaaneshi infantry :D) ), now they are AA guns.

I've downgraded the power of one shot missiles and gave them two shots to make them more attractive, and renamed the quake cannon the heavy concussion cannon.

So the change log from AMTL 2.0 would be

Removed AP and AT shots from CML
Removed all non titan units
Removed a few titans weapons

Added two new AA turrets
Added a new scout titan
Added a new "tactical" class weapon

Reduced the damage potential of one shot missiles and gave them two shots
Replaced the different knight types with a single stat line

Renamed quake cannon heavy concussion cannon

Finished V1.2 of the list.

I've added the fact that hte pointing system for weapons is E&Cs (sorry about forgetting that) and added things I missed out last time.

These are:
All the weapons in the weapons stat sheet
Fearless on the warhawk
1 void shield on the warhawk
stats for the imperator
Changed scout VC to MW3+ from MW2+

The imperators critical isn't as harsh as other imerpial titans but still very damaging.

In the datasheet of the Warhawk the Scout Volcano Cannon still has MW2+

Thanks BL.  I knew that having the same information in several places would play havoc with updating the list.
