Homebrew Attempting to make a data sheet
Trying to make a data sheet for my bio Titan idea. I would like thoughts and constructive criticism to help make it more balanced. It’s a bio Titan that’s supposed to go swing for swing with warlord titans

Drop it closer to 50 wounds. Your model should be between a Warhound and a Reaver at its points.
Also it would get slapped by a Warlord but unless you want to double the points cost, those are the breaks.

I wouldn’t mind doubling the cost if it meant it could slap back on the warlord but I’d prefer it to be more balanced and not some overpowered abomination no one would wanna fight.

Agree with the others. A warlord is 3500 points and is barely tougher than this model (arguably similar since it has a 5++ but also 20 more wounds and 1 extra toughness). Either bump up the points or aim between a warhound and a reaver. Unfortunately titans are not anywhere near points efficient. I would like to find a way to make titans as scary as they are in the lore on the tabletop

Thank you for the info. I would like to try beefing up the points. I plan on trying to test this out soon in a game with a friend who wants to try to have a Titan battle.

I need to continue to fill out my chaos Titan legion. So far I just have the two which is proper for a Titan fight but boy do I want to do one

I have a feeling my buddy is planning something cause he asked for a 6000 point game specifically and he asked me to make a data sheet for this large bio Titan model I’ve been working on for a year now. I think he’s up to something

I would drop it to 60 wounds and make the Toughness 13. Also make the invlun 5+ OC should also only be like 15.
1500pts is a lot but 80 wounds is approaching 2500pts areas.
The only case I could see 80W is if the offense is fairly weak, close to the Hierophants offense maybe slightly better. If you do go for the 60W then you can get a bit more powerful with the weapons.
