I'm not sure if anyone posted them, but there are official rules for the EMPEROR BATTLE TITAN.
I don't think they are still on the site after the update, but I have it saved on my google drive

Wow some of these posts depict some serious models especially the home brew ones. The battleship and the emperor Titan from the dude near Athens is nutz

For models that are produced by GW or forgeworld it's the Tau Manta, followed by the Reaver Titan in distant second place.

For models that are produced outside of GW, there is this: http://www.tsipisgames.com/shop/warbringer-maximus-mkii-no-weapons-free-shipping/ But I've not seen one in person to attest to the quality. I've heard decent things though.

If you're asking about points and power alone without regard to existing models, then everybody else is right about the imperator. Although I have heard that Will Hayes (their best designer) at Forgeworld would like to eventually create a warlord titan. Knowing Forgeworld prices I'd be surprised to see it under $1500 though.

I can't be the only one who wants to build one of those titans now, am I? Anyone know of any good tutorials for building a model the size of a person?

Everything I say, barring quotes and researched information, is my personal opinion. Not fact.

Actually, I believe the Phantom Titan outranks the Reaver as #2 for GW/FW produced models.

That 10klilo beast is only 2000 points? So that's clear then that the battle Titan is the mist expensive unit? Or the emperor Titan??

Isn't there an Apocalypse formation "Green Tide" or something similar which can be infinitely large? You just keep buying orks for it.


It's in the old Apocalypse book.

100 orks minimum, plus a warboss. No maximum, though. Also, any other ork boy squad that is falling back within either 6" or 12" gets added to it, so it just keeps growing!

Most of the old apoc formations had no limit, only a minimum. They also cost points to use. I have actually been updating them to sixth (hopefully it won't be too hard to get them to 7th).

True, but they still (mostly) deployed as separate units, though. Except the green tide and a few others. WAAAAGH, indeed.

So are we in agreement that the emperor Titan and all It's clone names
is the most expensive point based model in all of wh40k?
