I am in the process of printing off a 'Mek Daddy' from Gearguts Mekshop and I am hoping to make some rules so I can play a casual titan game with it. But I'm unsure what kind of gargant I have on my hands until I have fully printed it out. So I'm curious what everyone's opinion is. Am I looking to make rules for a gargant or a full blown mega gargant?
And if anyone has seen a 10th edition datasheet floating around for a gargant of some kind, feel free to share with me.
Pictures for referance.

With its size and weaponry it is probably a Mega Gargant.

I'd go with regular gargant,
The old epic megagargant was BIG...
one player at the World Narative/Championship in Atlanta had a Gargant as his transport and display box!
I'll try to get it uploaded
(can't remember how right now!... derp)|
click on the pic and it will rotate and clarify!

It’s nowhere near a Mega Gargant in size. And its armament is all wrong for a Mek, Great or plain ol’ Gargant - no signature Bellygub.

I personally never cared for the belly gun, especially with low it lay on the old epic model. Bu that's just me. I figure all those cannons on the shoulders would count as the belly gun. They're built into the body and they'd give when hell of a barrage. Plus I also have a friend with a classic epic gargant, so it would be nice if these rules worked for both of us.

Are you looking for a way to use it, or just fan rules?
You could count it as 5 stompas for example. Or just a warlord titan.
There was a gargant profile produced for apocalypse alongside the warlord titan. You could use the current warlord profile to backwards engineer an equivalent by comparing the old ones.

I plan to make some fan rules to play in a casual game between friends. Hopefully with a little testing to achieve some resemblance to balance and hopefully fun. But first I need to figure what I'm aiming for.

Well, it looks like I'm not the first person to print this out and they have a few pcitures here
Judging from this, it looks it's going to be almost twice the height of a stompa. So maybe a great Gargant? It looks like Mad Doc Grotsnik might be right.

Hey, I've seen this guy at adepticon! I thought his yellow carrying case looked odd.
So I'm not quite at the level of mega gargant I suppose. My Helsreach reenactment will remain a distant dream...
