It's now on Pre-order.
The Titan weighs in at £1240, though that is with worldwide free delivery. There are no weapon options so far, you have to take laser blasters and volcano cannon or wait for later.
Scaling is right, but it is nevertheless a new design, the fourth Warlord chassis design so far.
More stompy images.
The titan has secondary weapons. This is not new, you used to be able to add 'carapace multilasers' for free, and in the rule every titan head had heavy bolter for the princeps to use when needed, though often he was way too busy to make use of it.
Rear loading hatch and balcony soon. As a design feature it fits rule of cool, but the balcony should be drawbridged or otherwise dully retractable. If an assault marine with melta gun jumps there it's all over. The Princeps model comes with the titan by the way. Note the rear facing twin-linked heavy stubber turrets, nice addition, but like the Eldar titans this deserves a more potent range of free add on weaponry.
The addition of
th hood makes the head much smaller than for previous warlords, which had a fairly specious command deck and room for four Moderati plus the Princeps. This model goes against that part of the background, its far more cramped, smaller than the Reaver head interior it appears. I musdt admit to being disappointed, I would have loved to see an interior similar to the deck scenes on the Imperius Dictatio, which an older style head would have had room for. What they should have done here was give the titan a face not a head and extend the command deck onto the hull as a bridge. with a face as a mask/helmet in front. This would have kept the style and the size but also allowed room for a proper command deck.
No engineering deck on this titan, I wonder if they bothered to sculpt one. Pity if they did not, at £1240 you have paid for the whole titan, there should be the normal servitors wired in, techpriests and at least one,preferably two internal decks with detail.
All in all I am less impressed than I should be, and it cut corners, but it's still a warlord titan in
40K scale, and if nothing else it hardens the scale now, which should do something to prevent the five foot mega- titan syndrome.
