Epic: Titanicus - gives a nod to it's roots in Codex:Titanicus

otherwise Epic: God Machines makes sense

Epic: God-Machines. :) You know you want to.

I'll try and look it over this weekend, if that's not too far away.

Hi Ben- I liked the first chunk of story. Can't wait to see the closing picture of Imperial retreat.

Thanks.

From an army list point of view, what determined the choice of army lists to be included?

Firstly, Ad-Mech because that's my main Championship stewardship.
I picked Orks as the opponents because they have a number of accepted lists, as well as the Gargant Mob making for a good counterpoint to the Imperial Titan legion.

Quote:
Is the Legio Destructor list the same as the War Griffons list in v3.19?

Very similar, based on 3.19, slightly cut down and using more restricted weapon loadout choices.
I regard the Legio Destructor list as my "director's cut" version of the AMTL list, freed from the constraint of having to cater for every possible Titan weapon configuration from the last 22 years.
I'll preview it soon.

IMPERIAL
Legio Destructor—The Beasts of Steel
Achill-Quag Skitarii Planetary Defence Force
Knight Household Achill
Attilan Imperial Guard Rough Rider Regiment
Black Templars Space Marines
Crimson Fists Space Marines (Fighting in the style of their primogenitor Chapter, the Imperial Fists, & also as Codex Marines)
Imperial Guard Steel Legion (Actually random local IG regiments, but using the SL list style)

ORKS
Gobgutz Badfang’s Stompy Onslaught ("modern" style Ork list)
Orkbert Orkstein’s Gargant Bigmob
Speed Freaks Warband
Blood Axes Clan
Sun-Tzork’s Grotling Horde!


ELDAR
Eldar Titan List



Some lists, like the Steel Legion list & Codex Marines list, will be just a reference sheet & army list page, rather than having full datafax sets; they’re an opportunity to get some more NetEA lists printed but as they aren’t new they don’t need 10+ pages to themselves full of datafaxes.


EpicUK versions of duplicate lists could be included, for use in UK tournaments, reference sheets & army list pages only.


Any lists not Approved by each NetEA Champion in time for the supplement’s release will have to sit it out.

Hmmm... given there's a lot of non-god-machine armies listed, I think Titanicus would work perfectly as the Supp is looking rather large... :D.

I think Epic: Mechanicus is good, although it's more focused on the imperials than the orks.... does this matter tremendously?

Is Knight Household Achill based on the knightworld list that's been in development for a while now?

Yes, if it can be fully balanced, it will be that exact list.

Titanicus, Titanicus, Titanicus!!!

On a more restrained nore, I like the title Epic Mechanicus but there is a lot of non AM lists in there,not to mention Ork. So Epic: Titanicus is more encompassing and as already noted, is a great nod to AT.

It will be nice to have Imperial, Ork and Eldar Titan lists all in the one supplement.

Will be keen to see more of Legio Destructor, both list and background.

Thanks

James
