I wonder if that display will fill up as new models get released? Looks like there is a fair bit of space.

Hopefully the new years open day will have something for AT. More info about the Titan Death book and the "missing" weapons for the Reaver and Warlord would be great. I'd love to get something about any new Titans in the pipeline, but its best to keep lowered expectations to avoid disappointment.

Mortis again huh?


I'm mildly upset that Mortis are red / black. It's my favourite scheme, but as you imply, half of all AT minis are painted Mortis (meaning I have to find a different palette for my minis).

Yup, I wanted to do Mortis at the outset only because I like red/black/white (less excited about playing traitors) but after seeing them over and over and over I’ll pass.

I've gone Mortis purely because I seldom do "Codex" schemes, and even if I do I normally play with it to some degree.

Then I spend more time agonizing over colour choices and positioning than I do painting.

So this time I've gone for a popular scheme that's going to be well supported by GW with decals and maybe optional bits, and I'm lifting the individual Titan colour schemes straight from the art in the books.

Least stressful painting project I've done in ages.

I'm doing red and black because that's the scheme I prefer. I'll agree I'm kind of disappointed that's the "popular" colors anyway but, as I'm not a hipster, I dont care if everyone else is already doing it.

Glory is fleeting, but obscurity lasts forever.

Considering also your duty as a warrior you should not waver. Because there is nothing more auspicious for a warrior than a righteous war.

I'm doing Mortis as well, because I think red/black/cream is a fantastic color palette for these titans and I like the eye of horus panels for them.

Right then. Should be receiving my Magnets in the post tomorrow

Shall build the second Warlord when received.

Honestly undecided. Definitely doing a turncoat Legion. Eye of Horus just looks cooler.

I am pretty sure I want to do Legio Solaria. But I would also like a tutorial on that mottled green!

With Legio Solaria being the main protagonist's of the Titan Death novel I'm surprised there hasn't been a WHTV tip of the day for there armour. Maybe there will be something in or alongside the AT book? IIRC GW did have a few Warlords painted up in there colours for one of the open days.

Please post pics of those models if you find any. I have seen the WIP art for the Beta-Garmon book.

They've done a few mottled schemes IIRC eg https://i.imgur.com/us5wUmO.jpg but yeah I vaguely remember a green version (though the one I'm almost / not quite remembering may have been a player / hobbyist paint job)

No close ups, but there are some pics of the table at Battle Bunnies http://battlebunnies.blogspot.com/2018/05/adeptus-titanicus.html

This You Tube vid gives a slightly closer look. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf83rsuYQu0

I'd forgotten about this, but there is a 40k scale display at WHW with a Solaria Warlord in a hanger as well. https://warhammerworld.games-workshop.com/2017/08/02/now-on-display-the-titan-dock-diorama/

Going by there description in the Titan Death novel I think that the purple and red Reaver is from Legio Vulpa. Lovely colours for a nasty Legio

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

I certainly hope they do as well.

We won't have long to find out with Titandeath coming out (perhaps) as early as next month.

Thanks for the links, GoatboyBeta. Here’s hoping for some better pics (and a a nice tutorial) in the future!

Was the big AT terrain box supposed to be a limited product?

I thought it was a regular item but it is gone from the GW website.

Initial run is limited but it will be in regular production next year according to GW.

Alright, well I got the last one from my local game store just to be sure, even though I was planning to buy it later.

These 8 sprues plus the ones that came in the GM box will hopefully/probably make enough of these particular buildings to go with other terrain to fill the table.

Would be super thin for my tables. Gm box barely builds one decent building and i need like 10

The scenery is the only thing I was let down with, I am not even sure why they bothered to put any in the GM box, its a struggle to make more than one LOS blocking building.

The Dropzone Commander terrain seems perfect. I saw it in a battle report on Youtube. It's cardboard though.

But I can't find it anywhere

Hawk got borged by TT, so the supply is a bit spotty - there's normally a couple on eBay.

No mention of AT in the 2019 look ahead.

Well, they break it down by 40k and AoS, and Adeptus Titanicus fits into neither category.

Thanks! I don't have the suitable printer to print to cardboard at the moment but this looks very promising indeed.

I wonder how much new stuff we will see for Titanicus this year? It has clearly been a big hit but given the long lead times for plastic kits it could be a while before we see a good chunk of new models.

Necromunda got 4 plastic kits in 2018 correct? If Titanicus goes the same route I bet we will see the new Reaver, a new Warhound (perhaps the lucius variant), another knight, and then a brand new titan model. That would work out to around 4-6 new sprues which seems like a doable amount of new stuff without going too overboard.

Re. terrain, I think GW should make something along the same lines as the Maelstrom's Edge terrain kit, lots of detailed plastic strips that can be fixed to whatever interesting objects you have around the house. The current terrain is nice but you would need piles of the stuff to make a decent sized city...

Print on to paper, glue those to card.

Can even use photo paper if you want a shiny finish.

Not gonna happen; this is directly contrary to GW’s ethos.

More plausibly, GW could make a kit with some larger pieces in it.
