No, not really.

If there was, I'm confident that it would have been posted here pretty quickly...

Sadly, the answer is Nope.

Still waiting patiently.

Hm, I thought I had read that it was rescheduled for a November release on another blog/forum site. I am searching for the source now...

I can only wonder that going and finding the source before bumping a ~5 week dormant high profile thread with many eyes on it might have been the smart move and resulted in fewer frustrated Dakkites.

Grrrr....

Yes, that would have been the wiser path!!!!

Indeed, it's bloody annoying. However, to alleviate the annoyance, it did nudge me into doing a trawl and found something not reposted here from this years Warhammer Fest courtesy of the Titan Owners Club - note the enlarged text:

Warhammer Fest 2017- Adeptus Titanicus Concept Images

Some concept images for Adeptus Titanicus rolls on at Warhammer Fest today with Drake snapping some quick pictures for us.

One thing reported is that:

"Imperial Knights are Cataphractii sized.Marine is about 8mm."







A lot of work has gone into banner looks and shapes.



Posing of legs has also been heavily thought out.







Warhounds will definitely not be a forgotten aspect of the game.











New Legio schemes also seem to be on the way soon.

In terms of the Titan Legions in the images themselves:

Confirmed:
Imperial Hunters (white, red and green scales)
Legio Krytos (Godbreakers) (green and white)
Legio Mortis (Deaths Head) - last image

My guess:
Suspected Legio Osedax (Cockatrices) for the red Titans with skeletal banners

Thanks for all the images.

(Patiently waiting till 2018)

So, we will see 8mm Legio Astartes Marines?

I imagine we'll see Legio Tempestus and Legio Ignatum too. Along with my precious Mortis they form the first and greatest Legios.

The plan has evidently changed quite a lot since we first heard about the game, but IIRC the most recent info was the game would be in the Knight to Warlord range in terms of units, with somewhere around six engines on each side in a "proper" game, and mechanisms in place to try and prevent someone with more money than sense showing up with six Warlords and just gaking all over normal people with more mixed forces.

People naturally assume that if the game is wildly successful as Blood Bowl apparently has been, it would expand into "Epic: Heresy" and then eventually something like 40K Epic, but that's speculation at the moment.

That said, everything is speculation now, because they've evidently decided to back off their initial pitch and rework things, we hope so the models are plastic not resin, but we don't really have much idea of what the final product will look like now.

Plastics confirmed! Just been talking to Andy Hoare. Also, BFG is being thought about

I'm actually struggling to find enough reaction gifs to deal with all of the news. I mean at this point literally the only way they could make me more excited is if they casually dropped "Oh yeah, also Mordheim." on us.

Indeed. It is great to see the specialist studio finally expanding beyond bloodbowl. I hope they get the budget and the staff to continue supporting these games in the way we all want. Adeptus titanicus was the first GW game I ever played so I am very excited to see how it shapes up.

Oh god yeah. I'm not massively interested in Titanicus for reasons that I'm not quite sure of, but lately I've been more interested in space warfare type games, and I've always wanted to try Mordheim.

Sweet, thanks for passing that on

I asked tony cotteral about release date, next year apparently.

I'm hoping for the HH weekender.

Regarding BFG, on FB it's mentioned that it might return, but in a different scale...

But, why? I mean I can just about see a non-cynical motivation for the AT scale shift even if I have to squint really hard, but the actual size of the models in BFG was completely irrelevant to the gameplay(mechanically you could play with a "fleet" of flight stands with sticky labels on the base to name each one) so changing them doesn't have any impact there, and I don't see any real benefit for the models either - if you bump them up large enough to make a meaningful difference to the level of detail they become totally unwieldy to play with, and exactly because the models don't really matter for the gameplay making them smaller wouldn't actually mean bigger games unless they also radically changed the game mechanics.

I would imagine (non-cynically) that they'd try to do it more accurately? But that would be a logistical nightmare.

Also keep in mind that so far I've only see that tidbit appear in one FB post on the BFG fanpage, all the other info I could find online so far is that Andy Hoare is considering bringing BFG back, no mention of scale.

Can't wait for this. I was a big fan of the original.

And now for the bad news. While speaking to Tony Cottrell, he mentioned that they only had enough capacity to support 4 specialist games at present...

More power to everyone that is psyched about this. Personally, I'm really fething tired of Giant Stompy Robots in 40K. Please start loving tanks again GW.

If it continues to do well, they could grow though.

This is meant to be the giant stompy robots containment game. You can only really go one step above imperial knight before the system completely collapses in 40k, and even then the model serves much better as a display piece.

So...what are the Fantastic Four here then?

Exactly!

And IF (When?) it does well, hopefully they'll expand it into tanks, vehicles, infantry and etc. so we get EPIC back, and then you'll have rules and models to have your tankapalooza!

My picks would be Adeptus Titanicus, Necromunda, Battlefleet Gothic and Warhammer Quest (is that Specialist Games? If not, then Gorkamorka )

You are forgetting BB. So, BB, Necromunda, Adeptus Titanicus and BFG?

Well, right now it's Blood Bowl, Necromunda, Adeptus Titanicus, and a fourth game (BFG?).

Well, if this is true, Blood Bowl has already taken a slot, and Necromunda is now announced, and Titanicus has been known about for a while. That would leave only one more 'slot', assuming the limit is 4 games, as is supposedly claimed. .

No I'm not. I'm wishlisting and don't enjoy BB very much.
