Jede Menge neue Infos zu Adeptus Titanicus - Zedmeister im DakkaDakka Forum

Excellent day, though slightly disappointed that Fires of Cyraxus and the Vulterax wasn't available. The Moritat looked stunning and is currently being tooled, so not long hopefully. The Macrocarid too was stunning. Now, onto specialist games. Managed to collar the lads and spent a good amount of time pumping them for information:

First blood bowl, most is probably already known:
- The release box will be plastic and contain the full rules
- The following teams are planned for the initial run of releases: Human, Orc, High Elf, Wood Elf, Dark Elf, Elven Nations, Nurgle, Dwarf and Skaven
- He mentioned a dead zone supplement that will expand on them
- Resin teams and upgrade sets for all teams are planned
- Was mentioned that cheerleaders and apothecaries would make excellent the event pieces, though nothing like the original Orc cheerleader!
- Illegal procedure is now an optional rule!
- They won't be following age of sigmars background or race naming for blood bowl
- Ask Lord Borak 'may' return!
- Dungeon bowl was also mentioned as something they're looking at

And now, Adeptus Titancius. As mentioned above, the original play test box is quite the relic and was worth a look.
- They're digging into all previous Epic games for inspiration, but it will be a new rule set.
- Expect Titans to have a plasma reactor power tracker to keep track of how much power they have.
- They'll be able to overload the reactor to boost power with a risk (Overload voids, increase speed, etc)
- Harpoons will be back but nowhere near as ridiculous as they used to be!
- Expect 2nd edition Epic orders and damage charts
- Expect 1st edition campaign and upgrade rules
- Engine war will be a bit of a slugfest, with Titans slowly blasting each other to Atoms, staggering about, weapons missing, systems burnt out, but still able to fight until you smash the legs, pulverise the MIU's or cause the reactor to go nuclear.
- Manourberability is key - the heavier the Titan, the slower they are. He described a play test where his final warlord was scragged when an enemy warhound got behind it and he didn't have enough power to overload the reactor to take more turns than they can
- Knights are objective grabbers and shield droppers, don't expect them to go toe to toe with Titans and survive
- Campaign games are the default mode of play, similar to Necromunda as he described it. With options for competitive and open play.
- Machine spirit personality will play a role. This sounded really exciting. Titans will pick up a personality the more used they are. So you could end up wth a Titan geared for close combat and have it turn into a bit of berserker which will have an effect of it becoming less controllable in battle. 'Resting' the Titan becomes an important choice to make. Yes, your Titan could end up with PTSD or worse...
- They're starting out with the three classes and Knights, all in resin
- They'll be a game box that'll contain just the rules and terrain, a Horus heresy style black book for the main rules with additional background and colour imagery and the models in resin
- As for future Titans, expect a new class between warlord and reaver as well as a Nemesis class and, he got really excited, PsiTitans (at last)! Imperator would only appear if the game proves popular
- They're now running through play testing the game with a wider player base

That's all I can recall for now.

I did mention to Alan that they might be bikes, small walkers or whatever. Got no comment on that. 😛

Re: Titanicus, Darren has test printed the Various Titans, Leman Russes, Rhinos, Knights and various infantry.
It was after seeing all these at several scales that the choice to go with 8mm scale was made.

His emphasis was on 25% of 40k size instead of 20% in old Epic.

I fished for info on Aeronautica or other small scale aircraft. Got an interesting reply to this. He would very much like to do a new fighter game, but focusing on the larger void-fighter craft.
He always felt that the various fightercraft in gothic felt out of place and would have been better served at a scale in between Gothic and Epic.....

Re: Forgeworld Open Day 2016 - News and Rumour
I had a really nice chat with Andy Hoare about blood bowl. This is done and will be out before Christmas, the models and the sprues were all done and they look great.

Humans and orcs are in the box, and then skaven and dwarves will be next. The pitch is reversible and has a human pitch one side and an Orc one the next side. Once they get skaven and dwarves out done they're going to do a similar double sided pitch for them. In terms of other plastic box sets they are going to do an elf team and one other team. Everything else will be resin. Special characters are in the works, but rules for some of them are already done.

Anyway as we were chatting about blood bowl he pulled out a play testing copy of asepticus titanicus from the eighties! It had Polaroid pictures in it and the old printer paper with the holes in the side! Anyway adepticus titanicus is his next project. The old scale was really mixed with troops too big and Titans too small! New scale is going to be 8mm, so should work really well. He was saying with the new models you can see the marks of armour on space marines infantry, so although small should still be really detailed, by the sound of things this makes a warlord the size of a contemptor.

There's going to be some terrain in the box inspired by the old cardboard buildings, but this will be plastic, everything else is going to be resin. The setting is 30k so just going to be HH to start, but the plan is if it does well to introduce other races within the 30k setting.

By the sound of things the focus is going to be getting a decent model range for the HH first. We talked about how hard it is to do all ranges and all unit types in epic, and I think the focus is very much Titans, tanks and flyers! This is due in 2017 and will all be under the forgeworld banner.

I spoke to Alan Bligh about the HH timeline which was quite nice. One of the interesting things that was mentioned was blood angels and dark angels which by the sounds of things are going to be dealt with together, and won't necessarily involve signus prime. Whilst this is an interesting story, it doesn't really make for a good campaign. he mentioned there were quite a lot of events not on the official timeline, and that he has various versions of the timeline which includes other battles that haven't been covered either by black library or FW.

The focus at the moment is on Tempus, which all going well should be this year. The artwork and the first drafts are all done, but whether they can get it done in time is another matter!

Adeptus Titanicus hört sich besser und besser an. Seit Ewigkeiten ein Spiel von GW auf das ich mich freue. Es scheint ja irgendwann, wenn die Erweiterungen + Xenos raus sind, genau das zu werden, was 40k aktuell darstellen möchte aber auf den beschränken 48 * 72 Zoll Platten nur sehr schlecht hin bekommt. TOP!
Bin auf die endgültigen Preise gespannt, das wird sicher alles andere als günstig.

Seit der ersten Erwähnung von AT fiebere ich dem Release entgegen. Was nun in den ersten Gerüchten zu lesen ist klingt schonmal sehr gut und macht Lust auf mehr. Insb. klingt es danach, dass GW auch einsieht, dass die Regeln ein wichtiger Bestandteil eines Spiels sind. Zwar hätte ich mir gewünscht, dass zumindest die Startbox aus Kunststoff-Gussrahmenmodellen basiert, aber das soll der Vorfreude erstmal keinen Abbruch tun. Wenn man sieht was andere kleine Firmen mittlerweile so alles aus Kunststoff herausholen können (zB Dropzone oder Spartan Halo Fleet), dann dürften die GW Modelle traumhaft werden.

Bleibt nur noch zu hoffen, dann die FW-Preise das Spiel nicht im Keim ersticken werden.

Xanthos mit weiteren Infos zu Blood Bowl - DakkaDakka

I asked about rules changes yesterday. The core rules are unchanged, but the rules for perpetual leagues have been tweaked quite a bit, as they didn't really work before. Also they said that there will be two or maybe three special play decks.

The four first star players will be Griff Oberwald, The Mighty Zug, Morg'n'Thorg and Varag Ghoulchewer. Zug and Morg are finished and look fantastic.

He said that even with the last versions of star players we got from GW being fantastic sculpts, their new ones are even better! They are planning to release these alongside the main game in December.

I'm looking forward to this game a lot.

Auf Adeptus Titanicus bin ich auch schon sehr, sehr gespannt. Das wird wohl das erste mal, dass ich in großem Stil bei Forge World einkaufe. Ich hoffe, da gibt es bald mehr zu sehen als nur ein paar Infos aus Gesprüächen, will sagen: Bilder von Miniaturen.


Blood Bowl interessiert mich hingegen so gut wie gar nicht. Aber das Spiel hat ja viele Fans, daher denke ich, dass der Re-Release ein großer Erfolg werden kann.

Bin da der gleichen Meinung wie Ferox......

Ich leg schon ein Ei für die Aussicht auf ein neues Epic. Ich finde es sogar sehr gut, das es 8mm werden und nicht 6. Somit kann man mal wieder die Minis gut sehen. Was ich nicht gut finde ist, das es ein komplett neues Regelwerk gibt. Ich hoffe zumindest das es sich an E:Armageddon anlehnt, da es doch mitunter das beste RWerk ist, das ich bisher lesen durfte......

Na mal schauen wann die Minis kommen... 😀

Die Grundbox wird - nach derzeitigem Stand - Plastik-Gelände und das Regelbuch enhalten. Die Modelle werden ansonsten alle aus Resin hergestellt.

Eine übliche Armee wird aus 1-2 Warlords, 2-3 Reavern und einer Menge Knights bestehen.

Hoffentlich ändern FW/GW noch ihre Pläne und bringt wenigstens einen Teil davon in Plastik heraus.

Adeptus Titanicus - what we know so far!


Howdy Guys and Girls

Here are some snippets about the upcoming Adeptus Titanicus game for you - what we know so far:

- It's basically the new EPIC.

- It will be set during the Horus Heresy (for now). It's just easier to start with Titans vs Titans, and expand later on.

- It will be in 8mm scale. You will be able to make out power armour marks.

- Since all is done in CAD, they can release all titans done for AT also in 28mm scale if they prove to be liked.

- The reason the new Knight got upscaled was because of AT - they wanted to make him look distinguishable from the Questoris and Cerastus chassis. Oh, and he was originally meant to be the 'Warden'.

- They will start with titans, and will expand to tanks/flyers and infantry aswell as other races later. But that's still a while out.

- The first models will be Warhound/Reaver/Warlord aswell as Knights, done in resin.

- The starter box will be just a game set-up starter, without models (atleast that's what's planned for now). It will be done in plastic and be all about scenery and rules.

- They may do a nice Black Book version of the rules too, including propper background and lots of colour schemes!

- The planned release is the next Horus Heresy Weekender.

- They may do a 28mm scale Adeptus Titanicus battle at the next HH Weekender
