Anything that can swing with something like a power fist (S8 or better, pretty much) is definitely a threat to a Titan. I'd say that infantry, to me, is one of the biggest threats a Titan can face aside from something with a D weapon. They definitely have the ability to tackle the giant engines and so it's why I'm often placing a lot of emphasis on anti-infantry when defending Venator Lupus and bringing Skitarii and Astartes backup.Shadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07685481743879518712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-729740976648304931.post-8304996785107256972016-11-10T14:11:28.422+00:002016-11-10T14:11:28.422+00:00I think there's a quote out there somewhere ab...I think there's a quote out there somewhere about Titans ignoring infantry at their own peril. Sounds like that holds out on the tabletop.Blackouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01819672996667698419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-729740976648304931.post-77833341322646506172016-11-10T02:21:39.463+00:002016-11-10T02:21:39.463+00:00I agree with BigJon.

In the last game, I defended with 2 full Deathwing Knight units, each with apothecary, and 5 venerable dreads at Ira Deorum's feet. They formed a perimeter and are as stubborn as things come. Outside this, I keep a response force of terminators and light tanks. Ira lasted 3 full turns, and dealt enough damage to warrant the points cost.

In my first Apoc game with my Reaver my ground support was to close, a few squads of Wraith Guard were able to deep strike in and stripped me of lots of HP's. While they were not able to finish me off it made it easier in the next phase to reduce me to 0. In my second game with my Warlord I was able to setup a decent perimeter by using the table edge, terrain and a wall of Skitarii to defend my feet. I was practically untouched during the game.BigJonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10673029436313044457noreply@blogger.com
