How would one go about creating rules for apoc?

I'm considering building a large tank or titan for a sisters of battle force (I know the titan doesnt make sense but let me have my fun )

Thanks guys!

Find a copy of the old VDR rules from 3rd ed, things have not changed so much that those won't give you a decent enough ball park figure to start playtesting from.

Only caveat is you can abuse those rules pretty easily if the spirit of them is not observed so keep the concept ahead of power and you'll do ok.

1) Style over Substance.
2) Attitude is Everything.
3) Always take it to the Edge.
4) Break the Rules.

If you use the VDR rules, reduce the cost of whatever you make in them by 30%, and you'll have a more 'correct' 40K price.

It actually makes a lot of sense for a Apocalypse-sized Sisters of Battle forces to make use of titans and super-heavies. The Witchhunters Codex allows you to induct IG units, and even if it didn't, Apocalypse allows you to mix units from different army books. And honestly, some of the Imperial superheavies are pretty appropriate for an SOB army. The Stormlord in particular looks like a good fit, what with the mega bolter, and the heavy flamers, and the fiery death.

If you want something unique, I'd start with an existing super-heavy, swap some sort of super-melta into the turret, and try to come up with a fair price. If you show what you're basing it on, I suspect it won't cause many problems, since mega-battles tend to be pretty sloppy about things like exact point costs.

i was considering making an SoB Warhound Titan, Like with giant flamers for the arm weapons, and a giant pipe organ on the back, (Count as 3 exorcist launchers) or something like that.
