Hi,my player's group have some questions about titan rules:

What happens when a Warlord's head is Crippled? Just get CAF halved and/or orders at 4+?, or it also explote too if is not repaired this turn like as Reactor?

How works Holo-Fields on Warlorck Titan ("Orders are not placed for Warlocks")? Always provide a 5+ fixed save? Or depends on the movement choosed by the player? In the later since what lenght is it considered to be in THAT specifically order?


Thank you very much.

As mentionned in the Adeptus Mechanicus 5.2 rules, the head only explodes on a roll of 5-6. Only 1-2 damage ("Damaged. CAF halved and roll 4+ to give the titan orders.") can be repaired as 3-6 damages are mentionned "for the rest of the game".

About the warlock titan, you can shoot at it:

- on Snap Fire -> when it moves
- on First Fire  or on Advance Fire -> it has already moved or it is on First Fire order

In both cases, you already know wich order it has. With my Eldar opponent, when he activates the Warlock titan, he tells wich kind of order he uses (like a Command unit) and when the titan is activated, he places an order to remember the order he used for it. So Holo-Field save value depends on the movement choosed by the player.

Well, some units have fire on the fly abilities like tau suits and squat airships. Its a good question how to handle this then. I guess I would suggest using the same field-save as last turn if the titan hasn't been activated yet.
