In early editions of Epic/TL there where Titans with less weapons.
That are Warlords and Reavers with only 2 arm weapons and no carapace weapons.
Couldn't this be an option for the AMTL-list as well? They could be made cheaper (and thus free points for more fomrations = activations).

That can be done by swapping out weapons for an Icon or Devotional Bell.
I doubt that it would work with the points rebate for less weapons option, as the chasis still has a certain potency (in assult and resilience).

My TLs, include a number of the old AT1/SM1 Nightgaunt, Eclipse, etc. ... We will have them cost less just like in "the old days" !

Yes, but a Nighgaunt has no devotional bell. So it should cost less. Say 100pts cheaper for a Warlord without carapace weapons und 50pts cheaper for a Reaver without carapace weapon.
It would give more flexibility and free up points.

Legion 4, thats one of the great things about the game. You can adjust it to suit your groups preferences. However, for the GT list I don't think its worth trying to balance titans with less than normal weapon loadout.

Hi!
I was never very found of AT's fitting warlord chassi with less than 4 weapons, looked like a waste of an armored hull.
I think for standard games its best to standarize weapons at 4.
