The Corvus pods/head on Titans were designed to be used as "siege towers", IMO, which fits into the G/W fluff. And in a game may be useful as well using the CI as a big APC ... If you got it, use it, if the mission requires it ... I've only one Titan with Corvus pods and head and only one CI, so if I need to, I deploy them. Otherwise my Titans are heavy armed and armored, mobile weapons platforms ...

Ok I haven't played with this list so I could have missed something here,
but has anybody else looked at using two Warhounds with 2 Light Multiple Missile Launchers each.
Thats a 500pt formation that can churn out 12 BP of shooting. Ok its only 45cm range, but with the movement of the Warhound it seems almost too good to be true.
Comments/Drawbacks...

I haven't used it yet, but I've looked at it many times and can't find a serious drawback. Other options:
1 Warhound with 2MRLs is 6BP - 2 templates, +1BM
2 Warhounds with 2 MRLs and 2 VMBs for serious anti-infantry work - 2 templates, +1BM, 8 AP3 shots.
I like the MRL/VMB combo a little better 4 MRLs. The extra template and BM is likely to be less effective than 8 AP3 shots. Nonetheless, 12BP could be more useful sometimes.

Go to "trades" link, and Tas'S Trade Bonanza thread ... he shows all SM1/2 Titan parts on pg. 1 of that thread ... including the Corvus Pod & Head.
