    Who wants to spend 4k for "workable quality"?

    That is a ton of money... no way I could justify ever spending that much. I would rather make it myself out of cheap materials from a craft or hardware store. Quality wouldn't be as good of course, but it would be a fun project to do, and there are phenomenal looking custom built titans out there that are completely to scale.

    Just need the time investment :D

    Because it's better than spending 10K, and you have the bonus of seeing something you put heart and soul into finishing.

    Personally I wouldn't spend 10k or 4k on that. However if I did, I would always choose QUALITY over QUANTITY.

    So would I - that's why I couldn't care less about Imperial Titans.

    ;)

    (Certainly not that tripe called Adeptus Titanicus :vomit:)

    "quantity has a quality all its own"

    (Nagash, laughing behind a curtain of 300 skeletons).


    But jokes aside, those who love titans play a different game.
    Seriously, the lesser one (the warhound) costs 2000 points (IIRC, before equipment), so even the smallest titan is basically unplayable in normal games.
    You will use it only in Apocalypse games or, more easily, in specific games when you employ basically only titans, with imperial knights as "troops", and your opponent does the same. Which is not the norm.

    Well, it does seem rather fun to bring several titans and some Knights and then have the infantry represent bigger blocks of infantry (e.g. e.g. guardsman counts as 10 or something). Let's see if someone actually manages to bayonet charge a titan and kill it :p

    That would be a no sir. Couple people on dakka dakka did a test with mortarion and Magnus against the fully kitted out warlord. Mortarion even with all his Buffs fully active and everything else was not able to kill it and then it annihilated him next turn along with Magnus

    mm, that is a shame. It'd be interesting if it'd be possible to play like that.

    Unfortunately they are only simple re-casters that are in violation of GW's copyright / intellectual property.

    that warband is a tad dissapointing with only 1 troll. Though it does look awesome.
