Another option, instead of "Hull", could be "Legs".

This is the hull cost for two Warhound hulls, right? My personal
feeling, is that this is too cheap. I think 200 pts. would be more
reasonable, for the hull. This would make the average Warhound cost
about 325 pts. Pretty reasonable, considering all titans have the Titan
Defense System, under NetEpic rules. CAF is only used when fighting
Titan\Praetorians.

I've played some games with the new repair factor. I think this titan
should remain at 300 pts.

Perhaps with the changes, this hull will really be worth 500 pts. No
point changes need to be made.

I like the Special card idea best, because it makes the Vortex Missile a
rare item, as per the background material.

And they are not all that effective against Gargants (head not so critical) and Scout Titans (small template). But I'd like to see them cost 100 pts. and only roll one die for damage, instead of the normal two die. Or as another alternative, keep the cost at 125 pts, roll two damage dice, but only use the highest result from one of the die.
