Hi, guys.

Didn't see this posted, so if I missed the original, I apologise.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello again,

I`ve some fantastic preview shots for you this newsletter of a major release that will début at Games Day UK; the Chaos Reaver Titan in all its diabolic glory! As well as this great new model, I also have some more details about what Forge World will be up to at UK Games Day as well.

Chaos Reaver Titan

Ready to make the earth tremble and sow fear in the hearts of the enemies of the dark gods we have our new Chaos Reaver Titan. This monster of a war machine, a corrupted version of the Imperial Reaver Titan should be available in limited numbers at Games Day UK and released to general sale later in the year. This mammoth kit stands approximately 400mm/16 inches high and has been designed by Will Hayes and Simon Egan. The model, as you can see from the pictures Here, has been lavishly detailed with the marks of Chaos and the mechanical corruption both on its external surfaces and internal compartments, which include bladed armour, the Eye of Chaos on its upper carapace, and three damned crew cyberneticaly fused with its twisted structure. Towering over the battlefield, jagged and vicious, the Chaos Reaver Titan will make a fantastic centrepiece for any Chaos army as well as a great modelling project in its own right for the collector, not to mention tipping the Balance in the favour of the Ruinous Powers in your Apocalypse games.

Rules for the Chaos Reaver Titan can be found in Imperial Armour Seven, the Siege of Vraks Part Three.

As with our Imperial Reaver Titan, the Chaos Reaver Titan is available as a separate Main Body and Weapons. The main body also comes with a sprue of large Chaos symbols allowing you to convert any of the Imperial Reaver Titan Weapons to traitor service (as all the Imperial Reaver Weapons will also fit this Chaos version allowing you to customise your model as you wish). We also have two new Chaos weapons for the Titan as well, the brutal and predatory firepower of Chaos Apocalypse Launcher and the wickedly barbed Chaos Reaver Power Claw.

We should have limited quantities of the Chaos Reaver Titan Body, Chaos Reaver Titan Apocalypse Launcher and Chaos Reaver Titan Power Claw available at Games Day UK (see our Games Day UK webpage.)

If you would like to place a reservation order for Games Day UK send us an email to forgeworld@games-workshop.co.uk or give us a ring on 0115 916 8177 with your name and order details by the 21st of September.

Beautifully designed as usual by Forgeworld, costing an arm and a leg of course but worth it. Too bad there isnt a larger photo of the titan to really gauge the impact of this new design, but still brilliant

Actually, after looking over the pics, it seems a little too clean for a chaos titan - especially from the back.

Especially when compared to the Chaos Warhound.

Gathering the Informations.

See, I'm actually liking it. There's not as much just "LOLSPIKES!" to show that it's Chaos.
You've got the daemonic faces leering off it, you've got that awesome Power Claw, the crew is also a great example of the corruption.

But, I'm still not buying it because y'know...I have car payments to make

In general, I like it. Seeing it painted, perhaps in the same style that FW did their Brass Scorpion, would be quite a treat.

The supply does not get to make the demands.

I want there to be a loyalist version of that Multiple Missile Launcher. It is so much more impressive than the standard Reaver's Launcher.

Yes I agree it doesnt seem as chaos like as the warhound... Id like to see it painted up before I make my final decision... At the moment I am tempted to get one though

Can't wait for it to go on pre-order. I wounder if they will make weapon options for it like the Imperial version. I like that is cleaner looking, I've always thought the Warhound was much to over done and it limited how it could be painted; it looks very "nurgle" while the Reaver can be painted up with any rebel legion in mind.

To be totally honest, Im not that impressed with it. I was hoping for more Chaotic weirdness. The only impressive stuff is the interior such as the crew.

I'm sure they will, but for now we'll just have to be happy with the fact that the body comes with a bunch of large Chaos Symbols and bit to Choasify the Imperial weapons.
