TBG is very powerful... If opponent isn't properly tooled for the job.

I suggest the following:

- TBG shouldn't be limited by the "same weapon" rule. Big beasts like
them should be customized, as I even doubt there are two identical
titans in the whole Adeptus Mechanicus. Many of those things are
millenia old...

- TBG, if allowed, should simply feature the LESS EXPENSIVE CHASSIS
for free. Therefore TBG of various titan types could be easily
computed.

- All titans should feature a chassis cost and weapon cost. For
example a 850 pts titan would be defined as 500 chassis + 350
weapons. What is the chassis cost and weapon cost in the 900 pts
Banelord ? This computation would allow a better discount for fixed
weapon TBG (gargant mobs).

- TBG counts as a company AND a special card (i.e., no special cards
for TBG companies). Or even a company and two special cards, forcing
you to purchase another company ? I can hardly imagine a titan-only
army. Or maybe TBG should be a single special card...
Anyway, I don't like the company type for them.
