Titanicus has been played! 2.5k, 5 hour match (+30min setup). Legio Mortis won by 2vp, we scored the same for the primary objective so the game came down to secondary objectives. Quite some funny happenstances. I failed quite a few of my order rolls, just as many as I made with my Legio rules, in fact. This was the first game my opponent had played with said rules and I benefited far more from it even if I went without orders more for those pesky 1s on the d10.
Turn 1 was fairly usual except for Jim Awakening the Machine Spirit which hampered its movement quite drastically. The artillery warlords lobbed a bunch of missiles for the most part. That reaver would suffer quite badly.
Turn 2 would see the Mortis reaver there die to Laserbeak's overpowered shots. Even after quad 1s on the laser blasters, thanks to previous damage and the extergimus maniple's bonus, the graviton ruminator would silence the reaver, a beneficial result that would see it block the mortis warlord's volcano cannons for the rest of the game. Or it would have if the thing didn't roll a 5 for every goddamn volcano cannon shot afterwards.
How do y'all feel about having bespoke rapier crews? I'm going to be getting 8 (magnetizing for 4 tech weapons and 4 ammo weapons) and I'm debating just having my 16 crew just be standard crew with bolters so they can also be part of my tactical squad, because doubling up would sure save me a lot of space.
Those two warhounds would make an absurd number of shield saves throughout the game. Well over 30, with 20 hit rolls in a single turn only dropping 2 void shield levels with enough blanks on the reactor die to force only a single ineffective reactor overload. The Pale King on turn thee would unload onto the pair, catching a third dog in the belicossa blasts, but wouldn't dispatch them and would be laid low by the opposing Mortis warlord's cannons.
>>96819007Of course mortis won, theyre the best!
Bossman would take one of the pair down turn four, but not anything else. For the rest of turn 3 there, however, most of the action would consolidate in the middle of the battlefield.The double-melta dog would destroy a building in fury but that gave a clear line for blastermaster to attack the other dog, only dropping its shields and being exposed in return, however blastermaster would survive even after significant damage.Off to the side the other reavers would maneuver for a future turn, laserbeak was taking hits but its void shields reignited twice between turns 3 and 4 sparing its life.
Turn 4 saw a lot of shit happen. The melta dog raced forwards only for Bossman to take the four dialogue option and >Leave. The second Mortis reaver lined up an attack only for Stripes to come on its flank only to get mounted in return.
First Stripes would rip the head off the reaver causing it to explode. Then after the warhound would be shot apart by Laserbeak causing IT to explode on the opposite side of Stripes. The Mortis warhound on the objective kepts its meager shields intact long enough to evade catastrophic damage and hold the objective despite a walord and reaver unloading onto it (it was just under the warlord's carapce guns).The Mortis secondary objective was to kill 2 chosen titans at range for 5VP each, my secondary objective was to kill up to 3 titans in melee for 3vp each. We were both quite pleased with the game. My opponent is of the same mindset as me where the objective is secondary to the experience so victory is just a bit of candy on top of a sweet game. We need to try to play a bit faster though as we couldn't roll for turn 5 (despite really deserving to) for simple time constraints. Next time we play will hopefully be a Warmaster clash.
>>96819007that playmat makes me want to make a board using garden pavers
>>96819184It's easier than you think!
Spooler anon, post something!
>>96811750Primarch is apparently also a rank that one could be promoted to. None of the legions did though.A girl custodian called Aristea is the door guard of Guilliman. Guilliman talks about Russ and the Lion returning to Terra and already feuding again. The Lion stuck a longsword through the chest of Russ during a fight on Terra.Guilliman wishes his brothers hadn't come back at all.Prayto explains to Guilliman that he still can't sense the warp and they begin to think it is dead/gone and that the Emperor killed chaos.The cult leader Julatta finds a crashed thunderhawk with a near death Thousand son marine in it. He tells her that they failed and he can't feel the warp anymore either. He tells her there is nothing left for them except to run. Later they find a village and stumble upon 100s of diseased wasted away people but who are still loyal native Terrans. She proclaims them unbelievers and her small cult is torn to pieces by the Terrans as she dies crying.The Phalanx is very ruined but Dorn has ordered it repaired with priority. Archamus visits it and sees new marine aspirants 11/12 years old training to become marines. He is shown new methods of training which are just beginning, the psycho-conditioning. To make better marines with even less humanity. He is unsure if it is a good idea but as both Dorn and Guilliman agreed to it and want it done he accepts it.Next he meets Corswain and Bjorn in a secret area of the Phalanx. Dorn wants him to convine them to convince their primarchs to support his idea of a crusade. They say their primarchs have their own minds but it's pretty obvious he planted the seed in their mind to convince their primarchs.Next Hassan overhears an interrogation regarding Keeler and how she has somehow escaped off world. They are seeking to clamp down harder on believers.>>96814674No, nothing like that in this.
>>96819664>The Phalanx is very ruined but Dorn has ordered it repaired with priority.lol. lmao even.Thanks for your efforts, Anon.
Finished my Autek Mor kitbash, I’m so happy with how he came out!
>>96819664thanks anon>>fem todesis this new?>>Guilliman wishes his brothers hadn't come back at allgod I hate him so much. shows up late and then starts to complain other legions don't do things his way
>>96819970Oh no! Not the servo titty sucker!
>>96818935Painting my Legio Venator as we speak anon
>>96819117Cool wrote up and some good action shoots anon.What rules do you use for your dudes. The custom legio rules?
>>96819664Next Hassan has a meeting with all the High Lords in an effort to convince them to go against Dorn and stick up for themselves even if it means supporting Guilliman. They get offended and say he is trying to use them like Malcador did.They all leave and Hassan is deflated. The traitor gang lost a few IW and WB getting to the space station but once aboard they find an old Blood Angel ship a bit larger than a stormbird. The WB offhandly give the repair job to the IW who do it while seething in their mind the whole time.While repairing it the lone SoH, Xhamaddon tries to recruit the IW to his side so he can overthrow the WB. The IW, Theokon tells him that he should run when the chance arises as everyone wants to kill the SoH now.When ready they manage to escape back into the sol system as some more fleeing traitors distract the Ultramarine killer ships.The WB leader, Adraharsis makes the plan to go to Neptune as forces had been left there during the initial attack.Next the meeting to decide what to do next occurs.All important people on Terra attend. Two chairs are left empty for the Raven Guard and Iron Hands as there is nobody of high enough rank on Terra to represent them.The Khan has to be helped to his chair by two retainers which greatly annoys him.Guilliman begins the talk and says he can't tell anyone about the exact condition of the Emperor because they don't understand his condition.Guilliman warns everyone that mass production of traitor marines is happening on Luna right now and that is why it should be their focus.Dorn meanwhile steps up and says Luna and Mars can be retaken in time but the traitors should be hunted down while they are in disarray.Dorn maintains that chaos will come back while Guilliman says he doesn't know that for sure.Every other primarch and Raldoran agree with Dorn's idea to launch a new crusade.As Guilliman looks defeated Dorn stands happily but a voice cuts in.
>>96820104yeah build-a-bear rules from the campaign compendium.I did a first draft of some homebrew rules for Xestobiax but I felt silly so it didn't go any further.
>>96820067Faster!
>>96819664>Primarch is apparently also a rank that one could be promoted to.The Legions had "Primarchs" before the actual Primarchs were found (barring Alpha Legion [this too is a lie])
>>96820125>but voice cuts inWho? I bet it's Valdor. Tell us who was that?
Still some highlighting to go, I probably won't bother taking anymore photos of this squad if anons are getting sick of updates, but pretty happy with how they came out in the end. Dickbike squad underway currently.
>>96819970Cool mini bro, notice how it actually has a torso unlike the plastic cataphractii
>>96820665Nice, a bit funny how the vox lad stands out because of the red torso making him an easier target
>>96820665Which white primer did you use?
>>96820665beautiful scars. I'll have to go archive diving to get your recipe since they turned out fantastic
A while ago one of you guys recommended using a smoke paint to make really great looking Iron Warriors and Iron Hands.Problem is, I don't remember if it was Tamiya or Vallejo. Does anyone remember which one?
>>9682099895% sure it was Tamiya. Vallejo is a lot browner.
>>96820879>>96820883Don't think I posted. Black undercoat > sombre grey air vallejo > ulthuan grey air > vallejo white at increasing levels of zenith>>96820876He's a special boy
Pretty happy with how these Sons of Horus plasma squads turned out
>>96818935>TQI do play Titanicus, but more Legions Imperialis lately. Also FVCK YEA LEGIO MORTIS
>>96819076I mean, it's explicitly canon.
