Forge World has been all about Titans both big and small as of late. Don’t miss the latest teasers, and when they say we’ll see Xenos in the game.
Before we dive into what Forge World had to say, take a look at their previous Twitch stream updates they handed the community. Psi Titans, new rules expansions, and a new class of titan were all teased previously:
New Titans & Expansions Coming Soon From GW
As some background info, Titandeath is a novel releasing soon that will be based on Beta Garmon. Multiple battles Spanned across the sector against the Imperium of Man and the Traitor Legions.
This will also be the name of the forcoming Adeptus Titancius Rules Expansions as well:
During the stream, the team confirmed a new expansion book coming for Adeptus Titanicus. They said it would come in the “black book” style like all of the Horus Heresy rulebooks. It should be around one hundred pages long and all centered around the events, legios, and houses present in Titandeath.
New Scout Titan Classes
A new “Class” of Titans may be coming to the game in the near future. They mentioned a new Scout-Class Titan being between a Knight and Warhound Titan in size that was “in-play” as well as new Reaver class, and briefly mentioned the Imperator-class as well…
Psi Titans Mentioned
Titan pilots aren’t immune to being sensitive to powers of the Warp. Every now and then, a Titan Pilot could be a fully-fledged Psyker sitting in the cockpit of a huge Warmachine. What’s to stop him from blasting something with Psychic energy?
We saw these rules in HH book V Tempest for a Psi-Warlord, and this idea is very much “in play” for Titancius.
Titanicus Transfer Sheets, Weapon Upgrades & Scenery
As a part of the Stream, they also announced even more transfer decal sheets coming to cover all of the households that the community at large are fans of.
Updates from Latest Twitch Stream
Coming from Titan Owner’s Club, they reported the event as it was happening live. Some major Stream points were:
Titans & Adeptus Titanicus
- The Warbringer Nemesis Titan MIGHT come to Adeptus Titanicus. Don’t hold your breath on it.
- New Weapon Sprues for Titans are expected sometime early 2019. (No official date just yet).
- Speaking of weapons, the Arioch Titan claw has a mega-bolter modeled but has no effect in-game.
- The new Warlord Titan sprue will also come with three different head options. Which you can see here
- Reaver Titan’s melee weapons can be left or right handed. Three new heads on that sprue as well.
- Cerastus Knights will be getting more options beyond the basic Lancer.
Forge World also Covered Future Projects
- An FAQ is coming to Adeptus Titanicus but it’s still a ways off.
- Some EPIC weapons that don’t have a 40k equivalent may come to large-scale resin later on.
- Titandeath book will cover rules for all sorts of Legions.
- Adeptus Titanicus is going to remain in the Horus Heresy timeline for the time being. The Forge World team said that they have no intent on bringing any Xenos into the picture at this time.
- If Adeptus Titanicus is popular enough, they would consider stepping past the Horus Heresy.
- No more terrain kits for the game on the table at the moment.
Forge World may have found that their most popular outlet to work in is Titans.
Be on the lookout for more to pop up as we roll into 2019. Would you like to see the Warbringer Titan make its way into Titanicus?
