We played our 2nd gam of Epic tonight, and came away with a couple of rules questions for any guru's out there to answer..............

1. A titan receives Blast Markers and this is a formation in its own right. For every blast marker, 1 unit in a formation cannot fire. Does this mean that the Titan (on its own) cannot fire? 1 of its weapons cannot fire for every blast marker received, or non of the above?

2. An Ork Gargant gets into CC with an Imperial Titan. For its CC attacks, it receives 8 (1 for each starting damage point). The stat line for the Gargants CCW is a Titan Killer +1 attack. Does the Titan Killer stat apply to the +1 attack only, or all the attacks?

3. If a War Engine becomes broken (by recieving blast markers = to its starting damage) does it need to make a withdrawl? If it doesn't rally in the End Phase, what happens?

Any helps appreciated

1. A WE (titans in this case) is suppressed once it has BMs equal to its DC. So lone titans are never suppressed only broken. This makes them better than AVs with regards to suppression. Consider IG Tank company vs Super Heavy company with one damage. Tank company has 2 BM + 1 casualty, so only 7 can fire. WE company has 2 BM and that is not enough to suppress 3DC WE, so no loss in firepower.

2. It only affects the +EA. If a weapon does not have +EA then it affects the base attack(s).

3. They behaves like any other units. Non fearless units are destroyed if they are within 15cm of enemy after withdrawal moves. If it doesn't rally in end phase it can make withdrawal normally and cannot activate next turn.
