Hello Hello!

Brian and I plan on playing Tomorrow (sat apr 9) and I will be using
the Khornate army that I haven't played since NetEpic 3.2 and the now
infamous 'Battle of the 30 Tempests' (LOL)-

  I remember that there was quite a bit of discussion regarding the
nature of BaneLords and BaneLord weaponry. In reviewing the new 5.0
Beta Book (thanks again Jar!!) I find the BaneLord weps are now listed
with their appropriate costs. My questions are these:

1) Is 'BaneLord' now considered 1) a generic term for a daemonically
enhanced WarLord Titan, 2) a Khorne specific WarLord, or 3) only the
'pre-packaged' Khornate WarLord with the specific weapons we all know
and loathe..? (I'm hoping its option 1) a generic term for a
daemonically enhanced WarLord Titan...if not: I think it maybe should
be. It's just too cool!)

1.5) Corollary Question: Can a BaneLord take other weapons than the
'standard' BaneLord pre-package and still be considered a BaneLord?

2) Can Non-BaneLord Chaos Titans have access to what used to be
BaneLord specific Weapon mounts...? The rules as written don't
forbid this (as far as I have found), and I am very pleased by this idea!


I have been using a lot of Weapon substitutions and swaps based on the
relatively rarity of Titan Weapons (especially Beetle Warlord Plastic
Weapon sprues....anyone have any extra BTW???), and am re-converting
my Titans to use Stephane's magnetic mounting 'hot-swap' method. I
have been using the 40K Dreadnaught weapons as Titan Weps (which look
_very_ cool: No Pictures yet, but as soon as I can borrow or buy a
digital camera, I'll put 'em somewhere to look at).

I'd really like it if I could make my 'BaneLords' hot-swappable too...
