"wrath of the omnissiah" should absolutely force every enemy unit to make a battleshock test. Not just one unit it shot, not even just units it has shot. Every single enemy unit on the battlefield should be rolling to not be cowering in fear of the "God machine" they're fighting against.

@@matthewquan9083 nah. Any units, even fellow warlord titans, should be doubting the viability of their own existence when face-to-face with a warlord titan (realistically yes, warlord titans and reaver titans should probably be immune to the effect).
The feet should be able to insta delete anything they step on. Millions of pounds of steel landing on you isn't something you can shrug off even if you are a land raider
I'd love to see one of these videos for the other Titans, too. Actually for all the resin kits from Forgeworld. They're not something I am likely to ever buy, but they are fun models to think about and see the actual stats on. Like the Mantis or the Legion Thunderhawk.
I've wanted a 40K scale Warlord ever since the original Titanicus game. Earlier this year I finally got one. Almost done painting. The most ridiculous purchase I've ever made. And I'd do it again.
I love the melee stats on this thing. The output sounds perfectly cinematic, if you pucture the stomps being the incidental footsteps as it maneuvers, and the punches being slow, titanic sweeps that anything smaller has dozens of seconds to react to, but are also so large that not *everyone* gets out of the way, and it often connects at least glancing blows on large targets, and even glancing blows from this thing are devastating. Good, fluffy weapons!
I'm shooting Angron But you are playing against Druhkari I see Angron on that table against Sisters of Battle Agron has to make 5 saves But it's my turn and my opponent is not shooting me The Warlord Titan on that table over there is shooting you 😮
What the warlord titan does is as follows: it wins. No questions asked. Your opponent likely does not have the money to field soemthing that cna beat it

I played a 3500 pt game against a buddy who got one as an ebay rescue. Unfortunately for him it was loaded out as anti armor. And the only way I could come up with 3500 points was to use almost my entire guard collection, which was mostly Infantry & calvary. The guard managed to grind it down over two turns. Ironically the units that did the most damage to it was the calvary.
This video just popped into my notification feed and I can't help but notice it was released 2 months ago........ Great job YT as usual. To represent void shields I think the invuln should scale against the power of weapon being fired at it, aka the lower the weapon's str the higher the invuln will be. This should accurately represent that weapons under a certain threshold just don't have enough punch to stress the shields. There are A LOT of things GW didn't even consider when implementing titans like how being near one would be like experiencing a constant earthquake or that several of its main guns will outright kill non shielded entities near them with heat and pressure waves, or that guns which effect areas larger than city blocks they should all be ignoring cover, doing area dmg, and doing huge blast dmg. Keep in mind that most of a Titan's guns are usable in over the horizon shots so with a spotter there no one should be getting cover saves against these monsters.
I have one they require a lot of time. After 2warhounds then a reav and 2 eldar rev want a WL and eldar phant. Plan on a solid 24 plus hours to clean and assemble. Make sure you have an area to work. Was told like all fw to get some hot water or maybe hairdryer to assemble but i went with an actual heat gun and mask. Super life and time saver.
It is funny to me that the worst Space Marine detachment (the First Company one) can force a battle shock and kill him with no problem. Just watched that video right before this one and had a chuckle.
Thank god that's not how it works. Battle shock no longer kills models. It just removes all OC, can't use strategems on the unit and when you try to fall back it turns into a desperate escape when you fail the test
Something I need to bring up. Causing battleshock after shooting isn't useless as battleshock has two effects; it lowers OC to zero and some units have abilities that key off controling objectives and it makes a unit unable to use stratagems so for example if I charge a battleshocked unit and that army has a fights first stratagem they can't use it on that unit.
I’d love to see videos on some of the other titans and big Forgeworld models in the future. I have a Reaver titan that was an ebay rescue that I got for fairly cheap and I am planning a game soon against my cousin and his Eldar Titan and walkers. We’re both making thematic lists filled only with “big stuff” that we rarely field together.
I love this! Do a video for all the titans in 40k! I have a pair of Warhounds, a Phantom and a Revenant. Let me tell ya, the Phantom is a one-model wrecking crew. It deletes Knights.
You know that moment in the movie Ready Player One, where one of the characters could choose to be/pilot any mech? Gundam was cute and everything but this is the mech I'd choose. Goodbye mechagodzilla.
I haven't seen the movie but you might run into an issue of being able to pilot it as it typically takes a multi-man crew. Otherwise, go for an Emperor or a Warmonger to really turn the horizon into craters.
As much as I want a giant God machine in my collection I k ow my painting and hobby skills wouldn't do it justice. If I could I think forwarding it to squidmar (or similar) for another charity give away would be best. Get a nice video series, the warlord get the paint it deserves. And a charity gets some support too!
@@stormygeo I have a mate that's getting a reaver titan. It's a full blown ordeal with him. He's got a couple of posters of one to test colour schemes. He's doing a full journal of it all too. It's going to be his project for this year.
Once weapons have ranges greater than 72", I start asking the question of why the platform that has this weapon would deploy on the table, rather than farther away. A titan with a volcano cannon, quake cannon, and apocalypse launcher could be several feet off the table, and still going ham on the enemy while wrecking buildings.
The battleshock rule should be: All infantry hit by attacks from this unit must take a battleshock test at -3 and select two other things that take one at -2
How about this: "After this unit has finished shooting or fighting, select 1 enemy unit hit by attacks from this unit in this phase. That enemy unit must take a Battleshock test that the unit automatically fails. In the opponent's Command phase, every enemy unit must take a Battleshock test regardless of whether they are below half strength or not. If any enemy units are below half strength, they take a -1 modifier to this Battleshock test". Completely unbalanced and game-ruining. As a Warlord Titan should be in a game of this scale. The reason I worded it as "take a battleshock test and automatically fail" instead of just "that unit is battleshocked" is I figure it's fair enough to let the opponent use the Insane Bravery stratagem to override it if they want to spend the CP.
Besides the extremely high points cost, the main problem about Titans is, that their weapons are mostly designed to kill oher huge things and one big weapon may kill most targets, but cannot kill more at once and most good targets only come in units of one. And if you know you gonna face a titan, you can bring a lot of anti-vehicle, titankiller-like firepower!
Well I have to say, Warlord Titan is something that I DEFINITLY want to use, but the points are just... At least I can put it as a display, that's cool
An average 3d resin printer costs 300$, wash and cure that isn't necessary costs 100$ together, few litres of resin cost 100$ at max, an stl of every single part of the Warlord titan I found on cults was for free. A complete set for 3d printing costs four times less than the actual product.
I would highly suggest sorting through the box yourself once you get the model. Especially if the winner ends up being overseas as it would be a pain trying to get parts replaced if they are missing or warped beyond repair.
I was so disappointed when I saw that Hazardous "only" does mortals to characters, monsters and vehicles. Tickled me that the most efficient way to kill this thing was to persuade the person piloting it to do something stupid and blow his own ass up.
"Private Johnoson do you see that infantry unit over there?" "Yes Sir!" *vaporizes unit several times over with all the guns* "That's Primarch Guilliman and his honor guard. Protect them at all costs" ". . . . . . . . ."
I just bought one! Can't wait for it to get here so I can start my multi month long building project. I'm just hoping I don't mess it up somehow in the process. Making something so big and expensive is a bit intimidating.
The beautiful thing about 3D printing isn't just that I can print a 28mm scale forgeworld warlord titan for a tiny fraction of the cost. No, the beautiful thing about 3D printing is that I can skip the warlord and print a 28mm scale Warmaster titan.
the Obscuring rule you,d think the TITANS sensors alone would over write that ...I can see it been a issue in a city Urban fight (Think Titans at Hellsreach etc)
I remember a channel did a battle of Necrons vs a Warlord where the Necrons were out point costed by it but in the end killed it. Part of the problem was they didn't know about a rule that allows it to move and fire even when tied up in melee (I think it was 'Titanic' iirc). I'm wondering if there's something similar here with it able to be tar-pitted. Either way, it really should have Towering.
It just has tough and a lot of wounds and some pretty reasonable shooting that it can weather enough and shoot enough back to kill some stuff and then not die basically it’s only real trait is it holds home field and that’s it
Ive got a Tau spiderbot Titan equivalent, they sell em for like 300 online but fortunately theyre printable and ive got a resin printed. Wanna get ahold of the datasheet for it, even though its unofficial or so i hear, cuz ive printed 2 giant resin models of them and just need to paint em... Theyre gorgeous. One of these days ill get ahold of STL files for a warlord and make a Big army. Who knows, maybe we can find enough people to go against one dude with a 40,000 point army .. :D Imagine that... So nutty
They used to have so many more weapons like 2 vortex missile bank. Which is basically act like hunter killer missiles that are the proper size for a titan and basically shoots a black hole lol. Also what about the Volkite Destructor it was a serious contender for hordes of infantry with the Gatling Blaster? Btw this info is from when I started playing at the tail end of 7th edition.
It's ridiculous... I love it! I think I might have to get the Epic version though, as I'm saving up for a full size Thunderhawk at the moment (hobby goals)!
I've had my Warlord since it was able to be pre-order, however I knew it would be more decorative display aside from use. However I do play apoc and it's rules used to be amazing now not so much
I’ve always dreamed of getting a Titan but just can’t justify the cost. It would be a great cap to my knight household army to make it a true Titan maniple but just too expensive with a kiddo I gotta focus on raising.
"realistically can kill only 5 infantry with powerclaw".. Pretty sure warlord titan is already in scale where just movement has wounding effect on any infantry near it, or roll agility each time titan moves to see if infantry gets pancaked, well as when it opens up with say plasma annihilator, any infantry on front of it gets damaged from the heat radiation alone. I mean its shooting a miniature star at the enemy.. and that is damage just for the friendly units. On the other end, ou boy...
It's a lot of money for something you'll hardly ever get a chance to field in an actual game. Damned if it isn't a great center piece for a trophy case though.
If games workshop would have any brain cells they should just call the company that makes gundams to make a kit for this. Honestly I would get a big gundam to proxy for this 10 lbs of resin.
Why is leadership such a useless statistic nowa days? Yes, the massive titan has exactly the same sticking power as some gretchin. I dunno why this bugs me, must be getting old, like leadership actually meant something once.
The titan won't kill a Leman Russ by stepping on them was by design. That way the Warlord Titan can use them as roller skates.
Hmmm, Warlord Titan using 2 Leman Russ as rollerskates, interesting idea hahaha

Completely unbalanced and game-ruining. As a Warlord Titan should be in a game of this scale.
The reason I worded it as "take a battleshock test and automatically fail" instead of just "that unit is battleshocked" is I figure it's fair enough to let the opponent use the Insane Bravery stratagem to override it if they want to spend the CP.
Besides the extremely high points cost, the main problem about Titans is, that their weapons are mostly designed to kill oher huge things and one big weapon may kill most targets, but cannot kill more at once and most good targets only come in units of one. And if you know you gonna face a titan, you can bring a lot of anti-vehicle, titankiller-like firepower!
When he said the frame was 1000 pounds I thought he was talking about its actual weight for a moment lol
Big Guns Never Tire indeed!
Did someone take a Titan to a competition?
Warhounds are 1100pts So I'd expect to see a Warhound might show up, for the meme's
I saw a warhound titan the tables at Tacoma worlds. Was pretty cool!
that was mine!

It really should be - 'pick one target 30 wounds or less, it goes away' for the main guns 😂
Well I have to say, Warlord Titan is something that I DEFINITLY want to use, but the points are just...
At least I can put it as a display, that's cool
What a great vid and a great prize, the god machines are amazing models, completely over the top, 100% proper 40k!
Apparently it has a ballet dancer for a machine-spirit, because it's very light on its feet!
An average 3d resin printer costs 300$, wash and cure that isn't necessary costs 100$ together, few litres of resin cost 100$ at max, an stl of every single part of the Warlord titan I found on cults was for free. A complete set for 3d printing costs four times less than the actual product.
I would highly suggest sorting through the box yourself once you get the model. Especially if the winner ends up being overseas as it would be a pain trying to get parts replaced if they are missing or warped beyond repair.
I was so disappointed when I saw that Hazardous "only" does mortals to characters, monsters and vehicles. Tickled me that the most efficient way to kill this thing was to persuade the person piloting it to do something stupid and blow his own ass up.
well i've seen enough warlord fire to know it's guns are the general delete button of the imperium and chaos :)
"Private Johnoson do you see that infantry unit over there?"
"Yes Sir!" *vaporizes unit several times over with all the guns*
"That's Primarch Guilliman and his honor guard. Protect them at all costs"
". . . . . . . . ."
I just bought one! Can't wait for it to get here so I can start my multi month long building project. I'm just hoping I don't mess it up somehow in the process. Making something so big and expensive is a bit intimidating.
Update, I did indeed mess it up in the building process. Still working on it
The beautiful thing about 3D printing isn't just that I can print a 28mm scale forgeworld warlord titan for a tiny fraction of the cost.
No, the beautiful thing about 3D printing is that I can skip the warlord and print a 28mm scale Warmaster titan.
Is it acceptable to slitely shake the table when you move the Warlord Titan 🤣
the Obscuring rule you,d think the TITANS sensors alone would over write that ...I can see it been a issue in a city Urban fight (Think Titans at Hellsreach etc)
I remember a channel did a battle of Necrons vs a Warlord where the Necrons were out point costed by it but in the end killed it. Part of the problem was they didn't know about a rule that allows it to move and fire even when tied up in melee (I think it was 'Titanic' iirc). I'm wondering if there's something similar here with it able to be tar-pitted. Either way, it really should have Towering.
Should have a negative to hit infantry/small units.
It just has tough and a lot of wounds and some pretty reasonable shooting that it can weather enough and shoot enough back to kill some stuff and then not die basically it’s only real trait is it holds home field and that’s it
I honestly would love to try to go against this with my full beast snagga army X)
Either I get shot to bits or I get to krump some damn fine trophy :D
It doesnt matter what it does now, they will change the rules drastically once they sell enough of them.
If you're using this model, and not playing 8th edition Apocalypse, you're doing something very wrong.
Best rules set GW has ever made for 40k models.
Man when it comes to desdy demise I wish some would explode easier or have alot larger range
Thats not a miniatures its a maxiature
Ive got a Tau spiderbot Titan equivalent, they sell em for like 300 online but fortunately theyre printable and ive got a resin printed. Wanna get ahold of the datasheet for it, even though its unofficial or so i hear, cuz ive printed 2 giant resin models of them and just need to paint em... Theyre gorgeous. One of these days ill get ahold of STL files for a warlord and make a Big army. Who knows, maybe we can find enough people to go against one dude with a 40,000 point army .. :D
Imagine that... So nutty
They used to have so many more weapons like 2 vortex missile bank. Which is basically act like hunter killer missiles that are the proper size for a titan and basically shoots a black hole lol. Also what about the Volkite Destructor it was a serious contender for hordes of infantry with the Gatling Blaster? Btw this info is from when I started playing at the tail end of 7th edition.
It's ridiculous... I love it! I think I might have to get the Epic version though, as I'm saving up for a full size Thunderhawk at the moment (hobby goals)!
"Yawns in shadowsword" lol
Oh sweet, new Walord rules! Please include a way to get ranged precision. Please include a way to get ranged precision. Please
I want to buy the Sunfury Plasma Annihilator just to have it, but I know that if I do, I’ll wind up getting the whole thing.
won a Warbringer Nemesis Titan or 24$ in a raffle. painted with a case to put it in as well
Now that's a painting project
I've had my Warlord since it was able to be pre-order, however I knew it would be more decorative display aside from use. However I do play apoc and it's rules used to be amazing now not so much
What is your formula for calculating the damage? I arrive at some quite different numbers.
I would love to get one of these build it and auction it off to support AtaxiaUK.
It shrunk in the wash or something. That made me giggle.
*Me who has a Warlord titan stl*
Maybe a should order those 4 bottles of ressin....
thanks
Patreoned. Keep up the good work
I’ve always dreamed of getting a Titan but just can’t justify the cost. It would be a great cap to my knight household army to make it a true Titan maniple but just too expensive with a kiddo I gotta focus on raising.
I'm in the same boat, thinking maybe get the Warlord Titan instead of a Mazda Miata at age 50?
You can get a Chinese recast for about 650$ that is completely indistinguishable from the real thing
I think you could use this for fun co-op/versus battles where players team up versus one "game master" controlling just this thing.
I want one so badly. So badly.
"realistically can kill only 5 infantry with powerclaw".. Pretty sure warlord titan is already in scale where just movement has wounding effect on any infantry near it, or roll agility each time titan moves to see if infantry gets pancaked, well as when it opens up with say plasma annihilator, any infantry on front of it gets damaged from the heat radiation alone. I mean its shooting a miniature star at the enemy.. and that is damage just for the friendly units. On the other end, ou boy...
I own one. So far in 10th against equivalent point marines and guard have killed it in one turn
Marines losing oath wound rolls will have an issue but yeah, it’s not intended to really play a standard game or take on a full army unsupported
What load out did you use? It seems like double Gatling cannons and apocalypse launchers might give it a better chance against regular armies
I will get every full size titan… one day!
Just put my hat into the drawing, through pateron! Hope I win!
iv said it before, and I'll say it again here. titanic feet need the anti infantry keyword on them.
Good call
I see that the other side of a table I’d pack up
Shrunk in the wash.... love it.
Stick volcano cannons everywhere! Why you ask? Well cause its called a fucking vilcano cannon that’s why….
wait a second ... weapons need to purchased extra?! given the price i assumed you get a full kit
It's a lot of money for something you'll hardly ever get a chance to field in an actual game. Damned if it isn't a great center piece for a trophy case though.
I've got three off these, titanicus size though 😂
If games workshop would have any brain cells they should just call the company that makes gundams to make a kit for this.
Honestly I would get a big gundam to proxy for this 10 lbs of resin.
If I do win this I’ll challenge my entire playgroup to play against me at 6000 points 😂
Only takes 2 Orks, 1 grot, and a squig to fell one. Orks is best.
ah yes who doesnt want to own their very own 4year old child in resin with lasers
Statistically speaking it could still roll all 1's to hit
Here while the video has 40,000 views hehe
Still better points per dollar than an adeptus mechanicus army.
Does anyone know if you're able to use the vulcan mega bolters that's on the arioch power claw?
Yes it’s a S6 20 shot heavy bolter essentially. AP-1 D2 with sustained hits 1
Okay that's what I thought, kinda wish Auspex Tactics talked about that shooting option.
Why is leadership such a useless statistic nowa days?
Yes, the massive titan has exactly the same sticking power as some gretchin.
I dunno why this bugs me, must be getting old, like leadership actually meant something once.
Honestly at 3500 I'm a lot more keen on this utter monument to absurdity.
Am I the onl one who thinks its stupid that a terminator has a better invulnerability save than a Warlord Titan?
