Having not seen the book, presumably loyalist only. There’s only 25 Warlords of Ordo Sinister, and they’re basically the Emperors own Titan Legion. ( Iirc, been a while since I read Inferno).

Regarding the decals, I'm guessing that they're the two loyalist legions on Ulixis that the preview mentions.

Well its a LOT of Dark Eldar bits if you want a titan since its only the gun arm.
That said I'm sure we'll see Xenos appear at some stage. We just have to wait out the Imperialist propaganda first 
The arm and faceplate remind me a lot of the Talos. Sort of like a soul siphon. I really like how it blends the Imperial styling with a form follows function of a psy weapon. Already have a name planned for it.

As noted earlier, definite Eldar vibe from the Psi Cannon thing.
And I really, really like that design cue. Makes sense, after all. Looking forward to the rules.

I love the blank face of the Sinister, it's a nicely non-Imperial design touch that gives the whole thing a distinctly alien and unique vibe.

You're remembering largely correctly, 20 not 25, (5 in each of the 4 crypt-fortresses) but otherwise yea they are the emperors own.
What is interesting is they are not actually [a] Titan Legio, but an Ordo with Titans. So I wonder how they will fit in the game? will you only be able to take one as a support titan or will it just say "treat them as a legio"
*edit: fixing grammar.

Where the confusion seems to be is the big E ordered 25 titans, yet we know of only 4 crypt-fortresses, so either 5 are in reserve, or used for a different project entirely.
One was destroyed whilst fighting the eldar though, where there any losses on Prospero?

Unfortunately that is about all they were. They were such unreliable gimmicks (and often with cripplingly short effective range) that I never saw them fielded. It was far better to use that weapons hardpoint for a more conventional gun.

*edit: fixing grammar.
That's a fair point...possible that they're 'allies' of sorts for loyalists. Although the text seems to imply that there are more Psi-Titans than just the Warlord, it doesn't appear that the models will be available. So maybe they won't have a full Legio-style set of rules yet. Of course, maybe the other Titan classes don't get the left hand of doom or anything really unique, so unique models aren't required to fill out a maniple. Lots of ways this could sort out.
Edit: 'Allies' for traitors in the form of daemon engines could be (are probably?) coming as soon as the Kado campaign book.
I guess we know why they were featuring Ordo Sinister in a book that seemed more about the Shadow Crusade Legios. The model is pretty terrific.

Two of them might be the ones guarding the gates to the inner chamber of the Golden Throne. Which also probably means the last three were (or still are) involved in fighting the warp incursion Magnus triggered.

So a bit of a whinge, but GW's transfer releases for AT continue to puzzle me. Its looking more likely that either or both Legio Metallica and Ignatum will not feature in the new book. So thats two sheets of icons for Legios with no relation to the new campaign book, no official colour plates, and accompanied by Knight houses that are known to have changed there heraldry post Heresy.  Although I suppose that's still better than the information available on House's Vi, Hyboras and Turbidos?

I have some issues with the transfers as well. Out of the eleven we’ve seen only four are traitor legions and two of them have been discontinued. My guess as to why Metallica and Ignatum are being released this weekend is because they are two of the more iconic legions. Ignatum is featured heavily in the fluff and Metallica was the studio’s legion when Titan Legions was released.

I wonder if they are going to do full size versions, and if they are going to bring back some of the discontinued full size Legion transfer sheets. Actually looking at the website at Titan stuff, I remember the Reaver chainfist going away, but when did the Lucius Alpha head disappear?

Did your Titans never make it into close combat?
But anyway, sometimes we actually played the game for fun too, so occasionally the weirder Titan weapons saw the field in our games - and may soon again too!

They exist on the 40k scale Warlord as well (in between the arms to torso ones that are missing from the AT version), you can see them in this picture.

Only Loyalist - the Ordo Sinister isn't a Titan Legion as such but is part of the Imperial Household, the Emperor's own.

I only ever saw Tyranid Titans consistently make it into close combat, because it took so much firepower to drop them. All other Titans were susceptible to critical hit locations being knocked out, usually from being swamped by mass number of shots such as from Imperial Guard heavy weapon companies or artillery companies, or Eldar Titans armed with twin Pulsars and twin lascannon wings. Players that initially thought they could ignore "the little guys" and walk their Titans out, were rapidly disabused of their notions of Titan invulnerability/invincibility.

What game are we talking about again? If we're talking about fluff void shield absorb range fire, and the melee weapon like Arioch fist also come with Vulcan Mega bolter to spray down infantry. The armor on Reaver are also thick enough to resist many lascannon or earthshaker round directly, while for the Warlords most weapon except destroyer weapon will simply bounce off, assuming they somehow get through (multiple layers of) void shield. The only reliable way an infantry unit can take down titan is by breaching the hull and kill the crew. Or they can fly and bring a good enough bomb to detonate the reactor on the back.
