New Titans and Knights:
The Warbringer Nemesis MIGHT be released in AT, but they are
not 100% sure if it will be done, or when it will happen if they decide
to. “Hopefully one day, but no promises.”
Emphasis on new weapon sprues before new Titans.
Regarding the Imperator, “Never rule it out, it might
happen, but don’t hold your breath please.”
Three different heads on the new Warlord AT sprue.
New weapon sprues for 2019 are expected to be early, but no
definitive month.
Arioch Titan Claw has a Vulcan Megabolter modeled, but it has no impact in game beyond being factored into the profile already.
Cerastus Knights currently cover only the Lancers, but more are on the way.
Cerastus Knights are meant to hunt bigger game and disrupt them.
Reaver Chainfist/Powerfist can be built left or right-handed. Three new heads for the Reaver.
Reaver Chainfist/Powerfist can be built left or right-handed. Three new heads for the Reaver.
The Future:
Focus on Adeptus Titanicus is still set in the Horus Heresy and they don't have an eye on Xenos races at this time. "We've got no immediate plans to release alien craft or monsters."
They are willing to expand the Adeptus Titanicus line past Horus Heresy if the game proves popular enough.
The Titandeath supplement will be a type of "black book", but they aren't willing to give away too much about it.
Titandeath will have rules for SEVERAL Legions.
Some of the less common EPIC weapons that don't have a 40k equivalent are likely to see a resin Forge World version later on.
They are working on an FAQ for AT, but it's still a way off at the moment.
Miscellaneous:
The Warhammer TV team likes the Vulcan Megabolters on the Warhounds for shield stripping duties.
Nemesis is NOT a Titan class, but a sub-class. (Nemesis is usually referred to as an anti-Titan loadout - TOC)
Knight Banners are going to focus on the Banner on the whole and not on the differences between Knights within a class (Questoris, Cerastus, etc.)
Naming conventions are not set, but are defined by each Titan Legion. Essentially, there's no wrong way to name your engines.
Imperial Hunters are featured in Titandeath, they have a dappled green and white pattern.
No new terrain on the books at the moment.
Regarding Titan-scale volkite weapons: "Don't hold your breath."
One of the big things they enjoy about AT is that you can easily create your own Titan Legion since so many were destoryed (and undocumented in the lore) during the Horus Heresy.
Currently there are no known gaming events at Warhammer World coming up for AT.
....very happy nerd!
ReplyDeleteReally wanted to hear that the Warbringer Nemesis was a "yes" for AT18. It would add a great dynamic to the game.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, at least they didn't shoot it down in a permanent way. Nor did they fully shoot down the Imperator or the xenos Titans. However, Xenos Titans are dependent upon game popularity, whereas the Imperator and Warbringer are going to be more of a matter of schedule. In short, Xenos players need the game to perform well while the Imperator and Warbringer fans need patience and a bit of hope.
DeleteWell, Andy really really really wants to make it, I chatted with him a number of times at the Vigilus open day. But the numbers need to work. It’s gonna take a while if it does happen.
