Come now, good kids go to heaven but the bad kids go everywhere!
Ah dear. Wouldn't mind another traitor Reaver but holding out for Thursday, in case something new is announced. Something Reaver sized this time would be fabulous.

If we get anything for AT, I predict the Traitor Book and corrupted plating for naughty Titans that need a time out to sit and think what they’ve done.
Fed up of Scalpers? But still want your Exclusives? Why not join us?
The Chaos Warhound and Reaver would be ideal candidates for a Traitor Legios book, as they are already available as 40K Forgeworld kits. Both would be bestsellers with Chaos players - even those who don't play Titanicus...
That said, we might be looking at a new kit for knights. We're still missing the Asterius after all, and knight armies could do with a counter measure to the Warmaster...

Decided to get back into AT a little while between projects, little bit of extra work done to this Reaver. Pretty happy with it, although I'm still wondering if it'd be worth getting a Warmaster or 2 Nemesis' next.
What's everyone's overall thoughts on the Warmaster? To me it seems too many points, perhaps that and a couple of Warhounds and you're close to maxed out already.

The Warmaster is too high in points, size and power to include in small games( 750-1,500 points ). But thats fine because its designed for large scale games anyway.
I suppose if you don't fancy assembling a load of Warlords, then the 'Master is a good alternative.

Ya that's one of the good things about it, sorta gotta play like 2000pts ish. Still plugging away on mine.

Do you play 30k? It'd be a lot cooler if you did.

Still ironing out the kinks and all the tricks to get the perfect print but fortunately any little miscasts on the titan can just be painted up as some battle damage.
Now all I need is some rules for a three legged titan...

I really like this, nice work. Reminds me of a Harkonen Devastator

I just like that it reminds me of a crab
A giant MechaniCrab appears!
I painted my acastus knight asterius to match the mechanicrab
Little clip video, I painted my legio before the official paint job was released by gw so it doesn't exactly match. Legio Venator's got their cognomen from the giant arachnid megafauna they hunted to extinction on their forge world of arachnus, and thus they became the "Iron Spiders". I used the audio from a prison movie called shot caller.

Awesome stuff! I would say that is definitely Otto Sump approved
I have finally ordered the AT Starter Set. Can't wait to get my hands on a Reaver and start painting one up, thinking of a Legion to go for in the meantime..

The custom legio rules from ryza are worth a look, would allow you to try a few things out before comfiting to any one legion. One sorta trap is loving a legio's scheme but no their rules. But that's the good thing about custom legio rules, you can have your cake and eat it too so to speak. U thinking loyalist or traitor? There's also blackshield factions now. Tritonis is one of them.

Thanks mate - I'll be honest I primarily bought the set to use the Titans in Epic. The 2 Reavers and 2 Warhounds should be a pretty good spread for a fairly large Epic army, and it worked out much cheaper than buying them separately.
I will hope to get to AT games eventually when I've got some suitable terrain built up. I had thought of 'Warped Dogs' as I loved the brief bit of background about them in the old Adeptus Titanicus game about the entire Legion being destroyed by Terra's defence lasers during the final assault. Are those about in AT now? Otherwise I would probably go for Legio Metalica as I love the classic Epic colour scheme and also they have the coolest/least pretentious-sounding latin name!
Finally put the finishing touches on the Punisher Titan, it ended up looking pretty good in the end despite my painting skills being incredibly rusty. I didn't go too crazy on the detailing but I managed to completely hide any little areas that had printed badly as battle damage and the overall design now looks pretty badass!
Now all I need to do is procure (or print) a base that will fit this monster. i was planning on using a Warlord sized one but it turned out to be waaay too small. There should be plenty of empty space though so I will have to get creative and build a whole mini diorama under its feet...
Got the acastus knight asterius painted. I only planned on doing one so I figuered I'd give it a unique paint job more in line with the mechanicum. The gun kit is from vanguard. Gave it a inquisition symbol because I had one left in etched brass, maybe a bit early for that but I figuer it goes on secrete missions for malcador. I like the shot of it next to the ordinatus crawler, you can really see how big the ordinatus is.

Making some tentative first steps into Titanicus, but the rainy season is 20 days early this year, so the breaks are kinda on this project for the time being.
So, I decided to grab some of Vanguard Miniatures' Novan Regulars to adorn my Titan's base. Gonna try to finish 'em off and get to terraforming today.
