I'm just hypothesising at this second but I can't decide what to put on the big boys. Assuming you would run other warlord/reaver or just 2 reavers what are people's usual combos? What do you see? Lots of close combat or just gun death? Blast templates or direct fire etc. |

One thing I face recently and found very nasty was titans taking all of the plasma weapons they could. It's expensive, but the guns have long range and excellent to-hit rolls, able to take on any target. On turns 1 and 3 everything fires, causing much pain. On turns 2 and 4 (if there is one) everything Marshals (since their weapons are Slow Firing). The titans can easily do a single move each turn for no loss of firepower, and the marshalling makes it very hard to kill a meaningful number of Titans. |

That's a good point. I was reluctant to consider plasma on the grounds that its slow but if you combine with marshall that makes all sorts of sense. I guess you could focus on supporting an assault if your shields were ok. |

Alot of folks tend toward bulking up titans for CC with Laser Burners and CC weapons. Other folks tend toward plasma or TLDs. I think it's usually best to focus a titan. So arm it for AP or AV or WE/RA killing. |

I wonder if the landing pad option is properly utilised. Being able to move and fire without needing LOS would seem a fantastic option. |

I've found a warhound with two inferno guns to be fantastic at flushing out infantry from cover or just plainly slaughtering loads of infantry. The way barrages work in E:A + the fast speed of the warhound, means that the infernos short range is not that big a deal in the end. |
