Description This was a crazy idea to lead my wolves to the battle in the spin-off game Epic 40.000. The idea of a titan in the hands of a space marine chapter instead of a Titan legion sounds pretty heretic... and seductive.

Now with that "come-on-dude-buy-all-our-expensive-forgeworld-stuff" game "Apocalipse", some lucky gamers can repeat that small sized battles on 40.000 scale. (I´m seriously drooling, man)

This plastic Warlord Titan model is from that mythic Rogue Trader age (I know, I´m not a kid anymore)

Many thanks, that tiny marines from Epic are very simply painted, only a wash for shading them and some lights. (they are smaller than a bean)

Rogue Trader is a thing of the past, but the Titan Legions are not.
While I dislike Apocalypse myself, and the craze that has come with it, Epic has shifted to the range of the Specialist Games. Among them you will find other nice stuff, such as Mordheim, Necromunda, and BattleFleet Gothic.

I'm still searching for the old StarQuest (or Space Crusade as was the original name). That was awesome.

Ah... Space Crusade. I remember even that Milton Bradley TV Commercial... It was a sort of very basic Space Hulk for four players, with their different space marine colors, being the fourth player who played as the 2impossible alliance" genestealers, orks, a sort of prehistoric necrons and chaos marines. I´ve got yet the plastic chaos dreadnought from that game, that ressembles an ED 209 robot from Robocop.

Wow awesome nice job, I've got 3 of those things of ebay hoping to use them as Tomb Spyder converisons but the shape of the lower body complicates things.

Mmm...maybe you could to create a new type of necron by cutting off the legs and combinig it with necron plastic sprues. Maybe with pieces of a necron destroyer?

Ohmygod. A warlord, really? Man that must be really huge. At the moment Forgeworld have released the smaller sized Warhound and Reaver class titans, and they´re really big.

Wait wait! Is this large or small? Cuz if this is in a regular dredd base....those small marines came out awesome!!!

NachoMon In reply to Malkavian7515 [2008-07-31 20:25:16 +0000 UTC]

The base is actually part of the miniature, because feet of titan and base are same piece. This is an really old warlord class titan from a plastic boxed set of 6 for first incarnation of Epic 40.000 called Adeptus Titanicus. That game was an attempt to create a Battletech-like huge robot fights set in warhammer 40.000 universe. later versions are Space Marine, Epic and Epic 40.000, but this first version is from the 80´s The base have an space to set a paper file in.

These games use the Epic scale which is much smaller than 40.000 scale in order to organize much bigger battles with a big ammount of tanks and super-heavy weaponry. Now wiith Apocalipse expansion and that resin models from Forgeworld, you can do the same on 40.000 scale, but is much more expensive, of course.

Epic was fun!
So was Space Hulk and Gorkamorka.

I got Rogue Trader when it was released in the States.
