Ok, so my local GW is running an apoc game on the 13th (surprise surprise) - 1500pts a person.
So it's an excuse to roll out my Titan Hunter, with a support detachment, but it's been a while since my initial testing of this and I just updated it to 6th ed, so here it is for review.

This is a Biotitan, designed to be used in hunting other Titans, while still being average against everything else.

The model is roughly 14" long and 6" tall, the Gravis Liquifier Gun fires out of its mouth, and the Defensive splinter rifles are mounted at the rear.

It is costed against the Warhound titan (Which is av14/13/10, with 9 hull points, 2 void shields is 750pts and can 2 different Titan weapons.)
Its main weapon is basically an Inferno Gun with -1Str and AP-D6 instead of AP3, and a Titan Close Combat Weapon.
T10 is effectively AV13, 6W is effectively 6HP (with a save, but pretty much anything that'll shoot it will nullify its save.)
Otherwise, it has a smattering of Splinter Rifles just for flavour.
By my fuzzy math, it should cause and average 2-3 wounds/pens against regular models a turn, or 5-6 wounds / pens against superheavies in cc.
And roughly 1-2 wounds with splinter weapons in shooting.
The Gravis Liquifier is an unknown, as it could cause anything between 2 and 20 hits a turn.

But still, basically -5 wounds, -1T, -1Str and random AP on the weapon, seems like 100pts cheaper than a warhound seems about accurate.

This isn't set in stone however, and is simply my opinion on the costing - I might have missed something or be outright wrong on some or several points.
I would like to hear opinions, and feedback.

Doesn't seem that bad, although I'd reduce it to S10 and T8/9. Nothing in the game has Destroyer by default, and T10 is just too much really, not even the super-GUO or Hierophants have T10.

The chariot and rider rules seem kind of pointless and unrealistic. I know that realism doesn't really have a place, but there's no practical way a rider is going to be able to attack from the back of a model that big, especially with a Gauntlet. To me it's extra rules that over-complicate things to add benefits that are both minor in overall effect while not being "fluffy".
