National Walk - USA 2023

On 9/1/2023, Princeps Shark and Princeps Shadow made the 1,335 mile trek to NOVA Open 2023, in Washington DC, home for the 2023 Titan Owner's Club - USA National Titan Walk. A total of sixteen(13) Princeps were in attendance for this event. We partnered with the NOVA Open Narrative team as the results of the the on going narrative battles had an impact on the event and the result of the Titan Walk would have implications to in the Narrative. The result was the allied forces of Obitus Exitium engaged the Salus Preatus alliance to try and maintain control of a drilling site, that just discovered a route to an archeotech cache. Nineteen (19) Titans and thirty-three (33) knights squared off to see who would control access to the site. The battle raged as both titan and knight maneuvered around the two large plateaus. Refinery 30, in the center of the map, became a pivotal battle ground. Multiple armigers, knights and event a couple of titans were felled as they attempted to gain control.  The battle saw many a titan and knight fall. In the end,  Obitus Exitum's forces were able to hold the enemy at bay and claim the day. 

Many thanks to the NOVA Open team for hosting us. Thanks also go the all of the Princeps in attendance as well as those spectating the event.  Special Thanks to Princeps Jaime B. for the additional photos.

NOVA Open 2023 - AT 28 Event

 "Let the Titans Hit the Floor" at NOVA was an absolute blast where 19 Titans and 2 Knights Porphyrion duked it out.  A total of 10 Princeps locked horns, the Traitors just barely eeking out a win that was decided by the last possible unit that was able to shoot on the final turn.  




Princeps Shark was a major help to Shadow in preparing for the event.

Would you believe this game featured THREE betrayals?  The Fureans and Vulpa Titans both turned.

Siblings meet as the Princeps-in-Training meets the Titan it will eventually command.  That knee on the right is dad's; no Titans or babies were harmed in the making of this event.
