War engines (like a lot of these ideas) are in flux. The big ones could easily be allowed a 1+ initiative with a +1 on their rally (effectively giving them a 0+ rally initiative), but we would need to price them accordingly. I'm just pointing out that a 2+ initiative didn't affect much in the two games from the weekend.

I think it's previously been more generally to represent the more elite nature of the Titan choices as compared to the chump infantry (IG & Guardians).
...Warhounds & Baneblades are the same DC etc, but that Warhounds are just more "elite" and so activate better? Eldar Titans are in a similar situation, same DC as SHT's in the case of Revenants but more elite than a Scorpion crew I guess?
It's worth noting that those two have low numbers of crew, whilst Squat War Engines are going to have a lot of crew comparable to a Gargant or similar in crew numbers I guess.
Just rambling...
