Thanks for your thoughts Hena, that pretty much confirms my theory.

Does anyone ever take a Warlord Titan with 4x Rocket Launchers? (No CLP) Cheers. EDIT: Or any number of rocket launchers apart from 3x MRLs & a CLP... |

I've been playing with the prospect of using a titan with 2x MRLs and 2x Gatling Blasters, not sure how to feel about it yet as I've not gotten many chances to try it out. |

My bug hordes wouldn't enjoy a configuration like that. Even word would be 2 mega-bolters instead of the gattlings. |

Are these Rocket Launchers at 3BP? If so, taking four might be cool for placing an automatic 3 Blast markers on enemy formations, preferable more than one formation at a time. |

(Hena @ Mar. 01 2008,16:13) QUOTE Actaully one could probably use 1 MRL as normal weapon. I though usually like to arm my Warlord with 2 Gatling Blasters, 2 Quake Cannons. That can't use MRL due to Quakes. Possible alternative could be Reaver with MRL, 2 Gatling (or Vulcans) and leave the Support slots to be filled by others. Such as Reaver with 2 Quakes, Plasma Cannon (assuming that CLP is support and can't be thus taken to this) and Reaver with 2 Vulcano Cannons and Turbo Laser. That would create 1 Reaver with infantry/mixed target, one for mixed heavy armoured and one against WEs. But what could a single MRL do? if you can hit more than 4 infantry units then it is better than a gatling blaster, but it is worst against armoured vehicles. The only reason to have one is to force your enemy to spread his infantry apart more, so you can't be swamped so easily in an assault. |

Does anyone actually use MRL's on a regular basis? I've found them to be rather weak..especially in comparison to the 2 x MRL combination vs 2 x Quake or 2 x Gatling Blaster configurations. Though I must admit...I am partial to this Warlord configuration when facing nids...MRL x 2 in carapace mounts...Plasma Destructor and Volcano Cannon on the arm mounts...its sort of a jack of all trades..not really good at any one thing..but works well enough for me.

Nice Titan! One question though....is the picture blurry because the titan is moving...or is it just a side effect of the dark green paint job (aka the L4 camo effect)?  Regards PlushWombat Thought of the day: When I grow up...I wanna be Legion 4! |

E&C - that missile is from the original Titan weapons sprue- It has the old AT1 plasma missile rating. Which gives it 6 burst templates, one shot only ! But it's a Mutha of a shot !!! ? ? ? If you go to the Epic Resources thread, Iain/C/S posted both of my Epic Recon pics galleries. Titans are in the 3rdI link !  Wombat - it must be the combination of movement and dark green camo !  And the fact that I took that pic a few years ago ... I should update those. And the important thing is you want to grow up, I'm still waiting and I'm 51 !!!

I've found them to be rather weak..especially in comparison to the 2 x MRL combination vs 2 x Quake or 2 x Gatling Blaster configurations. I use them, but in a support titan configuration. Three of them and a CLP. Good ranged satuatuation fire. forces the enemy to spread out, so they can't mob other titans. Though I must admit...I am partial to this Warlord configuration when facing nids...MRL x 2 in carapace mounts...Plasma Destructor and Volcano Cannon on the arm mounts...its sort of a jack of all trades..not really good at any one thing..but works well enough for me. I am not a fan of jack configuration titans. In my books they have to be dedicated to a job and do it really well, not kinda do a few jobs in an okay fashion |
