Warmonger and other things

Quick question: does Netepic have "official" stats for the Warmonger
class Titan? If yes, where do I find them? and what about Abominatus
(the "modified" chaos Emperor titan)?

A not so quick question: just how good is the newest GW Epic
incarnation anyway? Does it hold a candle to NetEpic? Last time I
asked this (years ago, if memory serves), I was referred to the
rules. Well, I don't have the necessary time, so if anyone here has
actually played the thing, you can post your opinions here. I won't
bite. Honest :-)

And last but not least: I think it's time to build and integrate an
image library within the "core" NetEpic functionality. I'll try and
be a good boy, by scanning the pages of a 1996 GW Epic miniatures
catalog I didn't remember to own, much less have at hand.
Unfortunately I lack the four center pages, and the catalog itself
lacks detailed images of the infantry sprues and of many older
models. It's still a good start, though.

I feel this is necessary because, let's face it, districating
yourself within the mess that's the Epic mini history is difficult
enough for the ones of us which have been there since Adeptus
Titanicus; a prospective new player faces a truly daunting prospect.
Ideally, the photos should be integrated in the army list
themselves, along with possible replacements, general availability,
GW catalog codes and other possibly useful info. Since this is a
major undertaking and would likely mess up the work already done on
the lists themselves, maybe we can build a separate document.
A "NetEpic miniatuers catalogue", maybe. Oh, and BTW: is it just me,
or is it true that GW sites still do not have any decent
online "minis archive" functionality?

Ideas? Thoughts? Random insults?
