The picture shows a 28mm sized warlord, and they don't mention titanicus, this sounds more like 30k to me, we should find out soon enough.

That is true...but we have both over looked one small detail!

By clicking on "Horus Heresy", at the end of the article, it takes us to the Adeptus Titanicus Rules set!

Looks like it will cover the "battlefields" i.e. the resin terrain.

I'm betting these articles will be focused on AT. They tend to use 28mm titans in many of the pictures in the rule book and the Titandeath expansion is coming relatively soon I think (my guess is second half of January, early February)

Do you know any details about the Titandeath expansion? I haven't been able to locate any rumors myself. Any info you have would be greatly appreciated.

I thought I'd have a look at some battle reports. That was not too good! Almost everyone seems to not have read the rule where blast weapons do two hits if centred on their target, with the result that their volcano cannons are half as effective as they ought to be.

I saw one batrep where they got this right, and as a result warlords were going off bang. Mostly the games were just ending with the titans still basically fine.

No, besides what was already posted (Beta-Garmon campaign info, list of legios involved, …), I haven't seen anything new, neither fresh info nor rumours. Eagerly awaiting. The Horus Heresy Weekender is taking place on the 2nd and 3rd of February 2019, hence my guess for second half of January, early February to see more, and hopefully get our hands on the new stuff.

Battle reports are slowly getting better.

Player experience is a big factor, the rules are not complicated, but you still need to play a few games to get them right.

Also the fact that the first battle reports looked all the same, warlords facing off with a few banner of knights, diversity adds a lot to this game, not just in unit choices, but weapon choices as well.

Was their any word on when Eldar titans were to be added? I know it wont be soon. That's what I'm waiting on to join AT.

As is the response every time Xenos titans is brought up, not for a very long time.

We haven't seen all of the material discussed before launch yet, we know there are new Titan classes, and then there'll likely be options and upgrades for those too. Plus possibly overtly Chaotic upgrades/kits after that.

Non Imperium based stuff is a long way off. Like years off in all likelihood.

You might be best off starting now with human titans. That way you'll get used to the rules... and be ready when the Elder arrive to break all of them!

So using this image I think Wraithlords and Wraithknights could proxy Eldar titans at AT scale fairly closeish. Which one is the Revenant and the Phantom?

Phantom is the bigger one.
Also I now have the urge to convert a herd of Bright Stallion knights out of Wraithguard…

Anyone have anything with the weapons each can take?

Wraithknight tends to be just a bit too big to make a proper Phantom.

They have used 28mm titans for pictures in titanicus books and advertising before.

Just thinking about the Wraithlord as a stand-in for an Eldar Titan. Height-wise, what does it compare to in AT?

Don't have one to hand to check, but IIRC its between the AT Reaver and Warlord. Wraithguard are about the size of the Knight lancers though.

Cheers for that, I think a purchase might be in order!

Nostromodamus, you are a Gentleman and a scholar. Much appreciated!

Hmm the scale for the Eldar plastic walkers would actually be almost perfect for titans at this scale. War walkers could also be converted into something cool I bet!

I like your Reaver. Some red on the carapace wouldn't go amiss though.

No I think the WraithKnight is far too big. 1.5x Warlord height at least I'd estimate.

My Reaver has some red on the back, as well as the left shin and stripes on the right shin, just doesn’t show well in this pic.

Looks decent

Wonder whom Legio Astorum will be fighting in that diorama.

Mortis. There are pictures of the diorama on the AT18 facebook page, the terrain looks increadibly phoned in, especially by WHW usually standards.

I'm looking forward to AT doing something 'new' and/or 'unexpected', especially now that all the usual suspects are here.

Mortis again huh?
