I wonder if we'll see the transfers return with the Legio book, I am desperate for some sheets.

Transfers would be nice, but what they really need to do is catch up on more Legios instead of just re-releasing the handful they've already designed. I tell everyone my Audax aren't done because I literally have room saved on the chassis and banners for transfers.

I mean, I get it if Audax is a little niche. But I also built a small Praesagius maniple and I feel like that's a notable enough Legio to get a few damn transfers. It'd be nice to just know if they're planning on designing any new ones.

So guys, I may or may not work for Games Workshop...but thats not important right now; just don't tell Gorgon about this...

Spoiler:
A new expansion dedicated entirely to Legio Audax and scout titans is in the works and due for release not long after Traitor Legios. It will be accompanied by the new Jackal class scout titan and an alternative, plastic weapon sprue for warhounds. To tie in with this momentous occsassion, Warhammer+ will host a new live action series called "The Ember Wolves", produced by the team behind Danger 5 and will feature Henry Cavill in a special guest appearance as both The Emperor of Mankind and Horus Lupercal.

It was just nice to hear slanesh mentioned. It would have been nice to see actual pics of corrupted titans, this is starting to seem more and more like custom legio 2.0 heresy edition. The people want tentacles and biomechanical horror beyond reason, give the people what they want or battle bling will do it for you

Really hoping we do see a scout titan, one day.

Add in replacing the statue in front of GW HQ with a life-size Legio Audax Warhound statue and it'd be acceptable. Anything short of that is less than the Ember Wolves deserve.

But in all seriousness, even Praesagius transfers would make me pretty happy. I think I saw a file to make your own on the FB group, but the official GW transfer sheets are so nice. I'm fully aware that COVID took a humongous toll on business plans, but I feel like Shadow & Iron never got everything it should have. I don't think it got any transfers IIRC, and I don't think they ever released the stratagem cards.

Why replace the statue when a life-sized warhound could just stand on it ?

So are we taking bets yet if gw/fw updated the terminals for the acastus or will it be a paper only version with just the asterius's rules updated to have volkite with no change to the porphyrion's terminals that they still sell in boxes of 5?



Has anyone confirmed if it's 100% resin?

Hello once again. I may or may not work for Forgeworld...

Spoiler:
The Asterius will be super-resin cast and retail for £80 each. The rules have indeed been greatly improved following player feedback; the Asterius is now 130 points and its conversion beams beefed up to 12 strength and 8 dice. The banner size is now 6-12 knights and can take coordinated strike even as a support choice. To celebrate the release of Metroid Dread on the Nintendo Switch, the Asterius' conversion beam gains the wave-beam trait and can now shoot through terrain and hit multiple titans.

All kidding aside, it would name sense for the next Titan to be a Scout Class. I was hoping that it would come with the Traitor Legios, but it seems a bit late for that now.

Perhaps with the next book...

The Rapier does seem to be mentioned quite consistently, doesn't it?

Would love to see even just some artwork of it at this stage...

By the way, do we have a list of Knight and Titan classes that are mentioned in the background but don't have models yet? I feel that Lexicanum has a bunch of them, but I think there are more of them (including Knights).

- Apocalypse class
- Punisher class
- Rapier class
- Legatus class
- Vulcan class
- Atlas class

Carnivore and Komodo have had several mentions in the FW black books as well.

Another interesting tidbit in the more recent Titanicus books is that the Jackal is mentioned as a class rather than a pattern. So it's not sure whether it's a variant of the Warhound or has actually been retconned into something else.

Well, the Nemesis has been mentioned as both a Warlord class and a titan larger than a warlord before becoming a modifier to the upgunned Warbringer, which we have no idea what the normal version looks like.

Given that titans are not STC designs, it could be a mix of different forge worlds using different names, or many of the designs could start out as modifications to existing titan frames before evolving into a new titan entirely.

And also note that the Nemesis is a variant of the Warbringer!

Would REALLY be nice to have another Titan option for us Audax players. But I'm content to wait if the result is a really kick-butt design.

I'm guessing we get the Rapier or the unnamed 'tweener Titan in Q1 next year. Seems like AT gets important releases around that time.

The Reaver-Warhound 'tweener. Their stated plan was for chassis in between/on either side of the main three types. And so far we've gotten two of the four.
